ABSTRACT:
Packing apparatus provides for essentially automatic packing of a cardboard carton at a significantly reduced cost compared to conventional strapping equipment and procedures. The carton preferably used with the packing apparatus includes a cardboard carton lid that is constructed so that the carton may be securely packed and shipped without the necessity for plastic strapping, and using lower strength paperboard than is conventionally provided, and is used with a carton body having side walls. The lid has elongated side panels with first and second parallel lines of weakness (e.g. perforations) formed in them. The bottom, fastening portion, of the side panels is preferably secured to the carton body side walls by cam elements of the apparatus moving the side panels outwardly from the carton side walls, and apparatus for applying adhesive to them while in that position. The carton is packed with nondeformable material such as business forms which extend above the top edge of the carton. The apparatus pushes down on the lid, compressing the material within the carton, to reduce voids in the material, and the components are maintained in the compressed condition as the side panels are adhesively attached to the carton body side walls, without interfering with the ability of the lid to flex at its lines of weakness.
