To all whom itmay concern:
dotted tetes stent (Milne,
Letters Patent No.107,070,-datezl September 6, 1870.
-The Schedule referred 'to in these Ilettrs Ptent and making part of the same.
13e it known that I, GEORGE A. LLOYD, ofthe city and county of San Francisco, State of Califor! niahave invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fruit-Boxes; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, ond exact description of the saine, reference being had to the accompnnying drawing and to the letters marked thereon.
This invention consists mninly in the employment of rubber for forming the cells of my box, as will be l'ully described hereinafter. r
Referring t0 the drawing- Figure l is n. plan ot' aJ fruit-box embodying my invention, with the cover removed.
Figure 2 isu. side elevation of same with the side A removed.
^ purpose o tl securing a circulation of air around the fruit, and are of a rhoniboidul form, similar to the horizontal cross-section ot' the cells B, and ofthe size and shape of the inside of the box E, shown best in dotted lines in fig. 1.
The sides of the box are provided with Ventilatingholes, into which holes are forced the tubes G, where they are retained by friction.
The outer ends of the tubes G are provided with a.
` wire-cloth screen H, for the purpose hereinbefore set forth.
v It will be observed that the part of my invention that consists of the employment ot' Indio rubber for the sides of the cells, and of wire-cloth for the diapbragms, and the wire-cloth or perforated screens for the Ventilating-holes, may -beapplied to fruit-boxes and cells ot' any forni. Also, that the partof my invention that consists in the employment of the hereinbefore-described forni of box-diaphragm and cell, may be used without regard to the material of which the cells andv diapbrzigms ure composed.
If` desired, the box may be lirmly secured and strengthened by hoop-iron binding or angle-plates at the corners.
Bythc employment of India. rubberinconstructing the gratings, an elastcseat or bed and surrounding for the fruit is obtained, affording great security against bruising or breaking fruit or eggs that may be packed in the cells, and, by making the gratings` in one piece, great simplicity and durability are secured.
Each box may be constructed to holda certain illimber of eggs, thereby saving the trouble of counting at the market.
Having thus described my invention,
What I claim, and desire to secure lby Letters Patcnt, isl 1. 'lhe India-rubber gratings C, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. The fruit-box described, consisting of the sides, cells, gratings, and diaphragm, when combined and arranged as described, for the purpose set forthf In testimony whereof'I have hereunto set my hand and seal.
Witnesses: e G. A. LLOYD. [L. 5.]
