SAMUEL s. BARRIE, o'E GREEN rorNrr, NEW Yoan.-
Letters Patent No. 109,373,4iated November 22, i870.
IMPROVVEMENTJN WOODEN-HOOP BOXES.
The Schedule referred to in these Lettere Patent and making part of the lame.
To all whom 'it may concern: Y
Be it known that I, SAMUEL S. BARBIE, ofGreen Point, inthe county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in roeden-Hoop Boxes; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof', which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the saine, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specificattion.
This invention rela-tes to improvement in the construction of wooden-hoop boxes, for containing spices, fruit, and other articles; and
. It consists in the form and mode ot' attaching a sheet-metal tip to the charntered outer end of the hoops of such boxes, for the purpose of preventing the same troni being splitor otherwise injured by nails driven through them, or by other means.
The tip is essentiallyY of V-forrn, in cross-sctional 01' end view, one of its sides being longer than the other, so that nails driven through the longer side may pass through the wood and be clinched on the inside, asin the case of the ordinary wooden-hoop hor In the accompanying thawing- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a box with the metallic tip applied according to my invention.
Figure 2 is a horizontal section, showing an edge view of the lap.
A is the hoop. l
B is the tip or shield for the end of the outer layer or lap of the hoop.
This tip consists of a piece of thin sheet metal of a length corresponding with the width of the hoop,
One edge of the piece of metal` is turned so as to` leave a groove to receive the end ot' the outer lap, as seen in iig. 2. This edge or underlap is confined between the two parts of the hoop, as represented.
The broad portion ot' the-tip is perforated, as seen in iig. 1, so that it can be secured to the end and contine the two parts of the hoop together, the tacks being driven through and clinched on the inside of the box.
The tip is slightly curved when it is made, so that when the hoop is rolled it conforms to the circle.
The tip is made of tin or other suitable sheet metal,
and perforated, and then placed upon 'the end ot the chanit'ered end of the hoop, and theend of the underlap C ofthe hoop is firmly pressed between the parts ofthe hoop. lhe hoopis then rolled in the former and nailed.
The tip prevents the splitting ot' the end when nailing, thusgreatly strengthening the box, besides giving it a handsomer inish.
H aviug thus described my invention,
l claim as new and desire. to secure by Letters `Patent- -The sheet-metal tip or shield B,` -fitted over the outer chamtered end of the hoop A, and having its outer side longer than the inner, as and for the purpose specified.
