Description

N ttaitetetrt gaat mit.
JFWFTT, oF eIN- Lettm Puma No. 105;(519, man July 26,1870.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same'.
. To alplwhom it mm/ concern;
Beit known that we, ALFRED ADAMS, of Chagrin Falls, in thc county of Cuyahoga, and yJOSEPH F.
JEWETT, 'of Cincinnati, in the county ot' Hamilton, State of Ohio, hare invented certain new and useful Improvements inV Fruit-Baskets or Packages, of which the following is a full and complete description, refer ence being had to the accompanying drawing making a part of this specification, in whieh Figure 1 Vis aside view'of the package. Figure 2 is avertical section.
Like letters ot'` reference refer to like parts in the several views.
lhenature of our invention relates to the mode of making a fruit-basket or package of paper, and coating the same either on the inside-or outer, or on both sides, for the purpose of preventing the juices of fruits from softening the material of which the basket is made, so that thepackage is not destroyed or .in-
jured thereby. Y
. Also, to make the package more stiff and rigid, and` have at the same time secured to it strength and lightness,
Theform of the basket shown in the drawing' is conical, but other forms or configurations may be used without changing the nature of the invention.
A represents the side. W
At the point B the ends lap one over the other, and are secured together by means of glue, tacks, or `other suitable ways.
'lhe bottom G isa' circular pieceand glued to the sides, or otherwise fastened. The edge of the bottom being on the inside of theV basket, forms a slight flange. The bottom may be of wood, it so desired, and fastened to the sides, as before mentioned.
The article, after being thus made, is then coated,A
by means of ak brushV or other tool, with dissolved shellac varnislaor the'brtsket may be soaked in said `solution of shellae.- g
The advantages of this new article of mmiuf'aeture` are, that alight and sti" package is produced, and, at the same time, the coating' atbresaid, or its equir aient, prevents absorption" ot' the juice of the fruits when brought in contact 'withthe package, as is the case with the kinds-in ordinary use. l y
'lhis absorption of the' juice tends to impair the rgood qualities" and flavors of small fruits, such as strawberries, cherries, grapes, Ste.; and
The objectot' this invention is to produce a basket, 85o., that will have the least tendency to change the character ot"such fruits aforementioned, and at the same time `make a strong, cheap, and durable article for thepurpose designed.
The basket may be or not providedwth slots, holes, or openings, for the purpose of admitting air in and through the fruit.
The coated substantially as set forth, as a new article of manufacture.
What we claim as our invention and desire to se- ALFRED ADAMS. l JOSEPH F. JEWET'L.l
