Application m September 18, 1912. Serial No.. 720,984.
This invention in common with others of its class, relates toa bucket for holding live minnows, used vb fishermen as bait, and
which is collapsi le so as to occupy little space duringt-ransportation, or when not in use.
The said invention consists principally, in a folding casing which is pervious to water, preferably provided with 'an air chamber whereby the device will float, com- .bined with a flexible bag, situated within the casing, soconstructed as to lie in a col lapsed condition on the bottom of the casing, or'to be drawn up to produce with the casing a water-tight-bucket.
The said invention consists further in means whereby the flexible bag can be collapsed, or extended, at pleasure, and in various other details of construction of the bucket, as will hereinafter fully appear.
In the further description of the said invention which follows, reference isfmade to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, and in which:-
Figure 1 is a perspective` view-ofthe im proved bucket as it appears'xvhen adapted to hold water; andvv Fig. 2 a perspective view of the same when collapsed. Fig. 3 is a vertical section of the bucket showing the ilexible lining or bag as collapsed at its bottom; 'and Fig. -it a perspective "view of the casing when extended. Fig. 5 is an enlar edA section of a part of the flexible lining or g.
. Referring now to the rawings, 1 istthe rectangular bottom of the casmg of 'the bucket, formed preferably of sheet aluminum on account of its levity.
2, 2 are the sides of the casing, also ofI aluminum, hinged to the bottom 1 in such manner as to admit of their being erected to produceva receptacle which is closed at the top by the flanged lid 3 having a hinged door 4 therein. v
To retain the lid in place, spring catches 5 are riveted to the sides 2,` and pass through slots 7 in the lid.
In order that the bucket may oat when placed overboard, there is applied to the underside of the lid an inflatable tube 9 of ing water, when the bucket is tied to a say rubber, having an ordinary valved nozzle 10, when the'tube is exhausted of air it collapses and does not interfere with the folding of the sides 2 over the bottom of the casing, or the application of the lid thereto as shown in Fig. 2.
If desired, .the side 2 of the casing may be' perforated to admit of the passage therethrough of -a current of water when the bucket is in a swiftly running stream, but to prevent the forcing of thevlive minnows against the down stream side of the bucket which would tend'to injure them, I prefer to perforate thatside only, or better still, insert in the said side, a gauze panel 12 shown in Figs. 1 and 4; and-to preserve this posit-ion of the bucket with res ect to asst, and also to keep the bucket in as near a vertical position as is possible, I provide the adjoining sides of the casing with rings .13 to which the two ends of a holding cord is attached.
15 is the water-tight bag or lining for the casing, before referred to. At its bottom it is provided with a rectangulafr wire frame 17, and several similar frames 20 are attached to its sides at proper distances apart. These frames not only serve to retain the bag in a drawn up.
A*To admit of the ready extension of the` bag 15, I attach to two opposite sides of the upper wire frame, by means of rings 21 or some other loose hingi devices, the bails 2.2 the side section of which, when the bag 1s collapsed, pass through slots 24 in the lid 3 as shownin Fi 3.
When the bag 1s drawn up, the bailsform a convenient handle for carrying the bucket, as shown in. FigL 1; and when the device is collapsed as represented in Fig.'2, the bails fold one upon another on the lid, the ring hinges l21 projecting through the slots 24.
After the ha is drawn up by means of the hails, and t e hails released, lthey naturallyefold u on the lid by gravity, and thus automatica] y sustain the bag in lts elevated position.
To prevent accidental tampering with the hails 1n such manner as to cause them to drop the bag to the bottom of the casing, l provide the upper surface of the lid with catches ada ted to engage the hine rings 21. One on y of these catches is s own 1n Fi. 1 in dotted lines and denoted by 26.
s it is not desirable that the bag should ever be entirely filled with water, I provide at least one of its sides near the upper edge, with overflow holes 27. These are illus trated in Figs. 1 and 5 of the drawings.
I claim as my invent-ion 1. In a bucket for the p u ose described, a pervious casing, combine with animpervious or water-tight collapsible ba s ituated within the casing, and means w ereby the collapsible bag can. be extended and secured in that condition, substantially as specified.
2. In a bucketl lfor the purpose described, a casing composed of a bottom, sides hinged `to and adapted to fold over the bottom, and
a lid, combined with a water-tight collapsible ba situated within the casing and means where y the said bag can be collapsed, or extended, from the exterior of the device, substantially as specified.
3. In a bucket for the purpose described, a casing composed of a bottom, sides hinged to and adapted to fold over the bottoni, and a lid carrying on its underside an inflatable tube, combined with a water-tight collapsible bag rovided with stifenin frames, situated wltiiin the casing, and bai s hinged to the said bag and adapted to slide vertically through slots in the lid, and to fold over the same so as to hold the bag inun 'extended condition, substantially as specified.
4. In a bucket for the purpose described, a casing composed of a bottom', sides hinged to and adapted to fold over the bottom, and a lid carrying on its underside an inflatable tube, com ined with a water-tight collapsible bag, situated within the casing, substantially as s ecified.
5. In a ucket for the purpose described, a casing composed of a bottom, sides hinged to and adapted t0 fold over the bottoni, and a lid carr lng on its underside, an inatable tube, com ined with a water-tight collapsible bn ,situated within the casing, apd bals hinge to the said bag and adapted to slide vertically through slots in the lid, and to fold over the same so as to hold the bag in an extendled condition, substantially as specified.
