Letters Patent No. 100,879, dated March 15, 1870.
IMPROVEMENT IN NEEDLE-CASES.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same4 To all whom it may concern Be it known that we, Woman B. FIELD, of Rockville, in thelcounty of Tolland, and BURRoUGHs BEACH, of Meriden, county of N ew Haven, and State of Connecticut, have invented a new Improvement in Needle-0ase; and we do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and 'exact description of the same,
and which said drawings constitute part of this specitication, and representJ in Figure l, a perspective view of the case complete; Figures 2 and 3, the-two ends with the'caps removed, enlarged; and in Figure 4, an under side perspective view of the cap.
- This invention relates to an improvement in the construction of a receptacle or case for sewing-needles, the object being to construct the case so as to 'contain' in separate compartments di'erent sizes or kinds of needles, and so that either one of the sizes or kinds may be taken for use; and
The invention consists of a case or cylinder provided with several compartments arranged around a common center, and provided with a. cover pivoted so as to -turn on the common center, and having a perforation, so that the said cover may be turned to present the said opening to either of the said compare ments, and through which openings the needles will, when the case is inverted, pass out A is the case, which consists of a cylinder of any desirable form, and made from wood or other suitable material. Both endsare by preference formed alike,l but one end may b left solid if desired.
NVe bore into, or in other" ways form compartments a, b, c, d, and e, around and equidistant from a common centre, j, to a sufiicient depth for the length of the needles, and over thel end place a capor plate, B, of sufficient diameter to cover the several compartments, andfor convenience of turning provided with a handle, h. This plate is pivoted to the center f,
and provided with a spring, as in fig. 1, to bear the plate down upon the top. The said plate has a single perforation at fi, so that by turning the said plate the opening t' may be presented to either of the compartments.
Upon the under side of the plate, as ing. 4,' a projection, s, is formed to set into the mouth ofthe several compartments, so that as the plate is turned to one of the compartments the said projection will drop into and retain the plate at such compartment. vThen the proper needles may be .passed into the compartment,
dles, and to do this, till the compartment with emery,
and when it is desired to clean the needles, the cap must be turned to that position, in like manner as for the other compartments. We do not wish to be understood as broadly claiming a needle-case constructed to receive several sizes of needles, and so as to deliver any one of the several sizes, as such is not new; but
We do claim as our invention--` A needle-case composed of several compartments, a b c d, &c., and provided witha cover, B, pivoted to the case, the said cover having an opening, i, and provided with a spring f, and ou the under side with a project-ion, s, so as t'oset into a recess or compartment, substantially as described.
