IMPRO'VED BARREL.
*Ihe Schedule referred to in theseLetters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom it may conce/rat Beit known that I, EBENEZER H. GABY, of Grand Rapids, in the county of Kent and State of Michigan, have invented a. new and useful Improved Barrel; and I do hereby declare that the followiing is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, sutlioient to enable thosesliilled in the art to which my invention appertains to make and use the saine, reference being had to the accompanying drawings making part oi this specication, in which- ,l Figure l is a central` longitudinal vertical section.
Figures 2, 3,`and 4 are views of devices, hereinafter more particularly referred to.
l The nature of myinventiou consists inV constructing abairei of bent timber, and connecting two or more sections together without the use of an inside stave, and in such ,a manner as to secure a tight joint, thus forming a barrel capable of holding liquids as well as dry substances; also, Tin so constructing the heads that they can be taken out and replaced with facility, and without injuring the head or the chine.
The wood is out in pieces of the proper length 4and breadth, and the ends are veither beveled or formed with tongues and grooes,for with shoulders, so as to They are then tions A B4 C, as shown in fig.` l. v
Fouconnecting the sections `together I use an inside hoop, H, havingribsorItongues h formed on the outside, correspondingu'ith grooves on the inside of lth'e sections.`
When the ribbed hoop is placed in `position on I the inside, and a `binding-hoop K on the outside, the
sections are securely held together. This form of attachment is 4shown in the drawingfatthe joint con- 'lhe ribbed hoop may Another formofeattachinentis shown at the joint connecting the sectionsl B and C. A clasp,L, (see also lig. 4,) consisting of apiece of 4metal with its ends pointed or` wedge-shaped, and bent at right Yaugles with its length, is placed so that the ends enter 'the wood and clamp the; sectionsA together, the clasp Lbeing held-,in place by the inside hoop M, and a necting the,` sectionsB and C. A metallic plate, P,
has a short slit out at each end, so as to form flanges,
` two or more at each end,one bent in one direction and the other in an opposite direction, and both bent at right angles withthe length of the plate, as shown clearlyin fig. 2. .This plate P is placed over the joint,
*awaso4 that one of the flanges at each end enters ther wood otthe barrel, and the others either enter the f hoop M or clasp it on one or both edges.
Either'or both of these clasps, or any desired nuuiber of them, may be used in connection with the ribbed hoop, or with a plaiu'hoop, as desired.
For rendering the barrel water-tight, in addition to the ribs or tongues lt and corresponding grooves, I form a tongue, k, on the inside of the hoop K, which ent-ers the joint between the sections A and B, enough to exert a pressure on a packing, s, placed therein. This packing may be of gotta percha, cale. um, cotton cloth, dag, or any other suitable material.` The joint may bc rendered still more impervious by cutting grooves c k2 on the inside of the hoop K, and corresponding grooves on the outside of the sections, thus forming between the barrel and the hoop annular tubes, which may belilled with suitable waterproof packing.
The head I) is made in the ordinary form, with beveled edge, and is attached to a hoop, E, which is crozed for its reception.
The outer portion ot' the hoop E is beveled toward its inner edge,'and the chine is'beveled to correspond, so that thehoop E, with the head attached, lits closely 'when inserted in place, where it is held securely by means of the chine-hoop F, and a spring fastener, G, placed between the chine and the chine-hoop F.
The fastener' G- is-inade of spring steel, wire, or
vdriven between the chine and the chine-hoop, acting as Va wedge, or it may be formed with a barb, as shown in fig. 3, and placedin position before the chine-hoop` is put on, so that the chine-hoop will press therharb' into thewood beyond the point where the hoop E' meets the chine.
This barrel :hay be made and put together entirely without the use of nails of any kind; but, should their use be desired in order to fasten the ends of the sections, or in order to insure greater strength and security to any of the parts, I use nails, made of cop per or other suitable metal, with a fiat point, like the point of a brad-awl, and of the saine size from head 4to point, to prevent splitting the wood.
The hoops used in` this barrel may be made of either wood or metal, as may be desired, or as may best suit the nat-ure of the articles to be contained in the barrels.
I am aware that bent timber, and also that barrels have been made in sections and connected together` by longitudinal strips placed inside or out-side and fastened with nails.
barrel'shave been constructed oi' f I am also aware that barrel-heads have been attached to hoops7 for t-he purpose of facilitating the insertion and removal of the heads.
Therefore, I do not claim, broadly, the construction of barrels ot' sections of h ent timber, nor the attac-hinent of barrel-heads to hoops.
Neither do I claim, broadly, the rendering ot a barrel water-tight by means of packing; but
Having described my invention,
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, isA
