Embodiment Construction

[0067] Referring to the drawings, as shown in FIG. 5, the new gift box container 1 has a paperboard rectangular base box 3, with a similar separate cover 5.

[0068] As shown in FIG. 1, the base box and cover are each folded from a sheet of paperboard 10. Each sheet has inner and outer surfaces, a main panel 11, and four flanking panels 13, 15, one on each edge of the main panel 11, for forming ends 19, and sides 17. The flanking panels 13, 15, on the cover 5, are approximately one half the width of the flanking panels on the box base. In consequence, on the assembled box, the cover extends a short way, about halfway or completely down the sides of the box base. The four flanking panels 13, 15, are creased 21, and folded along the main panel 11, and creased 23, and refolded at their midlines 25, to form double thickness walls 27, on trays 29, useful as the cover 5, and box 3, portions.

[0069] Webs or gussets 31, are diagonally creased 32, and partially lanced and connect the inner hal...

Abstract

Stiffened double walled gift boxes are formed from paperboard blanks having main panels and wall panels with inner halves connected by gussets. A stiffener with a central panel and hinged sides half as wide as the side panels is placed in the main panel. Adhesive is applied on inner surfaces of the outer panels. As the wall panels are folded along peripheral edges of the main panel the loose stiffener is aligned by the wall panels. Sides of the stiffener bend with side panels of the box. Gussets are folded and placed inside end walls and are secured by outer end panels secured to inner end panels. Outer side panels are folded inward and adhered on sides of the stiffener, locking the stiffener in place.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] The present application is a continuation in part of pending U.S. application Ser. No. 10 / 697,126 filed 31 Oct. 2003, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF INVENTION [0002] The present invention relates generally to gift box containers for packaging an article or articles, more particularly, but not exclusively, to a method of construction and assembly of double walled gift boxes. BACKGROUND OF INVENTION [0003] Double walled gift boxes are well known. Covers and base boxes are usually formed from relatively flexible paperboard blanks having decorative outer surfaces and flat clean inner surfaces. Side and end walls are folded inward upon themselves to form double walls adhered together by adhesives. Inner portions of the walls are connected by creased gussets, which are folded and tucked into junctions of the end and side walls. Glue strips connect inner and outer portions of the walls. Folded gusse...
