TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: I
Be it known that I, GEORGE D. BLOCHEB, of Indianapolis, inthe county of Murion, in the State ot' Indiana, have invented a new and useful Apparatusfor Preserving'Corpses; and I do hereby declare that the following is a f'ull and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, making part of the same, ,and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
This invention relates to the preservation of dead bodies in such cases as it is desirable to delay interment for a few days or weeks, and consists in the peculicr construction and arrangement of a double metallic case or casket in whiclrto place the body, and which is surrounded with an external case of wood, lined with sheet zinc, Ina-dc sufficiently large to contain a quantity of ice aroundthe case containing the body. I The chief peculiarity of the internal case consists in the manner of ventilating it so as to prevent the condensation of the moisture arising from the body upon the clothing and inside surface of the case, thereby keeping it dry as well as 0001.
Figure 1 is a top view of the preservor, with the lid of the external case anda port of the lid of the internal case removed. i T
Figure 2 is a. vertical longitudinal section.
Figure 3 is a trnnsverse'section of the internal case. i h
A is the externzil case of wood lined with sheet zinc, leaving on. air-tight space between them. A is the lid. B is the internal case or casket in-whiehto place the body. -It is made'double, as shown, of sheet zinc, and has perforations in the bottom outside shell, near the edge, and also in the top edge of the case, as shown infig. 1, to admit a free circulation of air between the inner and outer shells. The lid of case B is also made double, the edges being left open to allow the air to circulate between them. The under shell of the lid sets upon the upper edge of the case in such manner as to allow the warm air rising from the body to pass through the perforations in the'upper edge of the case, anddown between the inner end outer shells. This it is caused to do by the ice surrounding the case cooling the outer shell. The moisture condensed from this warm air will drip down through the perforations in the bottom into the external case. The upper shell of the lid of ezise'B projects over the lower shell, and the edges ere turned down 'to carrythe water melted from the ice over the sides of the case. There should be braces between-the inner and outer shells of case B, as shown, to keep them apart. p r
I do not make any claim to the external case 'A, nor to surrounding the internal case B with ice to keep the bod cool, as this is in use for various purposes; ,but I claim- The double ventilated case B, constructed and operating substantially as end for the purpose set forth, in combination with the external case or ice-box A.
