which form the lateral edge of the sections 31a and 32a in fig6 through 9 the gluing and folding sequence is described and as can be seen the initial step is the application of adhesive 42 across the tabs 40 41 and the section 35 as shown in fig6 as stippling the flange inner section 37 is folded about the fold line 38 so that it is adhesively attached to the outer skirt section 35 but so the slit 39 is not involved as shown in fig7 next the blank is folded about the hinge line 17 as shown in fig8 appearing as stippling on the drawing next the top part of the blank is folded downwardly about the hinge line 36 into the collapsed configuration shown in fig9 the carton is side loaded and the end or side closure flap are then placed in position and glued with the large flap 27 or 28 being fodled first the minor flaps being folded intermediate to the major flaps and the major flap 31 or 32 which now has the tab 40 or 41 respectively attached to it being the outer folded flap as seen in fig4 and 2 when the carton is opened the removable portions 31a and 32a are broken away and the cover rotated upwardly about the fold line 16 the side skirt portions of the cover remain intact since the tabs 40 or 41 are glued to the removable sections 31a or 32a respectively and are in turn attached to the minor flaps 25 or 26 it may be seen in fig2 that the downwardly extending front flange 34 is not attached to the front of the carton 15 and the natural resilience of the fibres result.
