R. E. ELLIOTT 6: G. W. COOK, JR. SUGAR CAN. APPLICATION FILED AUG. 2, 1911.
1,029,431 Patented June 11, 1912.
a I I 2 2 ROBERT E. ELLIOTT AND GEORGE W. COOK, JR, OF BAINBBIDGE, N EW YORK.
- SUGAR-CAN.
Specification of Letters latent.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, ROBERT E. ELLIOTT and GEORGE W. COOK, Jr., citizens of the United States, residing at. Bainbridge, in the county of Chenango and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Sugar-Cans, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to certain novel improvements in receptacles for sugar or the like.
In carrying out our invention it is our purpose to provide a container or receptacle for sugar or the like, which may be readily suspended upon a wall in close proximity with the person using the contents of the receptacle and furthermore to provide the receptacle with a door positioned at its lower end, the said door being provided with means for agitating the contents of the receptacle when the door is opened. Heretofore in the structure of such containers the contents have been generally removed from the top of the said receptacle or when the article is designed for household use a cabinet is provided which is formed with one or more doors.
In removing the contents from the receptacle, as above described, a scoop or cup is required. Particles of the sugar or the like generally adhere to the sides of the scoop, and the said adhering particles generally become detached as. the scoop is moved to deliver the contents to the pan or the like, thus particles of the sugar are scattered over the floor. Again, in some instances, the scoop is filled to overflowing, and in moving the said scoop, "the overflowing sugar will drop therefrom upon the floor.
It is our object to remedy these objections as well as to provide a receptacle, preferably comprising a cylindrical member having its upper portion formed with an eye which may be readily attached to a nail or the like, its lower and back portion being formed with a stri which willcontact with the wall so as to e ectually sustain the container against lateral movement.
We also aim to provide a container for the purpose set forth having a cone-shaped bottom terminating in a substantially flattened face, the said flattened face beingiprovided with an outlet opening and being further provided with ways for the reception of a sliding door, the said door being provided with an agitator, whereby the contents of the receptacle are stirred when the door is opened to permitof'the ready outflow of the contents, the door being also of a suflicient' weight to close by gravity when released.
With'the above recited and other objects of a similar nature in view, the invention consists in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts set forth in and falling within the scope ofthe appended claim. Inthe accompanying drawings, Figure 1 1s a side elevation of a receptacle constructed in accordance with the present invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal sectional View of the same. Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional View taken upon the-line 33 of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a detail longitudinal section of a modification.
Referring now to the drawings in detail the numeral 1 designates the receptacle which preferably comprises a cylinder con- Patented June 11, 1912. Application filed August 2, 1911. Serial No. 641,892-
structed -of any desired material and of a 'well' as an air tight joint. The receptacle 1 adjacent the" top thereof is provided with an eye 3. Th1s eye projects slightly above the top of the receptacle and is adapted to thereceptacle is suspended. The eye 3 is positloned upon the rear face of the receptacle l and the said rear face adjacent the receive a nail, screw or the like, from which bottom thereof is further provided with a substantially rectangular strip 4, the latter having its opposite ends oflset and connected with the sides of the receptacle. The strip 4 is adapted to serve as a bearing surface and to contact with the wall, upon which the receptacle is positioned and the said strip is designed to prevent the lateral movement of the receptacle.
The numeral 5 designates the bottom of the receptacle. This bottom is of a coneshaped formation inclined from the rear portion toward the front of the receptacle and the front of the bottom is substantially straight as designated by the numeral 6. The straight face 6 at its juncture with the cone shaped portion 5 is formed with an opening 7, the latter adapted to serve as an outlet for the contents of the receptacle, and the said opening is normally closed through the medium of a sliding door 8.,
This door 8 comprises a flattened member having its upper portion formed with a fin r hold 9 and its'lower 1portion formed is further provided with an agitator 12..
if desired, be constructed of a single strip of wire or the like and the said stripl may pass through a suitable opening in t e.-,;bottom of the door proper and be secured to the front of the door as well as to have its upper extremity bent upon itself. to provide a finger hold 9' as illustrated in Fig. 4 of the drawings.
Having thus fully described the -invention what is claimed as new is This agitator may,
A receptacle of the class set forth having its bottom inclined downwardly from its rear to its front and the front ortion' thereof being substantially straig t, the straightened and inclined portions of the bottom being rovided. at their juncture with an incline openin tion of; the bottom being provided with .ways, a gravity door slidably mounted within the ways,
a wire member comprising an agitator secured to the door and projecting within the receptacle, said wire member being extended upon the door and having its u per extremity bent to provide a finger hold.
In testimony whereof we afiix our signatures in presence of two witnesses. 7 ROBERT E. ELLIOTT. GEORGE W. COOK, JR. Witnesses:
