Abstract

See full text

A support pad formed from a pair of corresponding horizontal vertically spaced rectangular blanks each divided by a pair of parallel fold lines into a center panel and a pair of side wall panels. In one embodiment, the blanks are joined by a pair of spacer members adhesively bonded between corresponding side wall panels of the blanks. The center panel of one blank contains a line of severance parallel with the fold lines, and cut out portions on opposite sides of the line of severance that define sets of corresponding dovetail projections and grooves. The relative distances between the fold lines, the height of the dovetail projections, and the combined thickness of the spacer members are such that when the side wall assemblies defined by the bonded side wall panels and spacer members are folded upwardly to vertical positions relative to the bottom center panel, the dovetail projections may be brought manually into interlocking engagement with the corresponding grooves, thereby to maintain the side wall assemblies in the vertical position. In a second embodiment, the spacer members are omitted.
