DRIP PAN;
APPLICATION FILED JUNE 26, 1913.
1,094,210. Patented Apr. 21, 191i UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ARTHUR E. HUGHES, 0F PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, ASSIGNOR TO FOSS- HUGHES COMPANY, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, A CORPORATION OF PENNSYLVANIA.
DRIP-PAN.
To all whom it may concern: 1
Be it known that I, ARTHUR E. HUGHES, a citizen of the United States, residing in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have invented certain Improvements in Drip -Pans, of which the following is a specification.
One object of my invention is to provide a device for catching the oil falling from the various bearings or other parts of a motor vehicle, whose construction and arrangement of parts shall be such as will permit of the oil or other material collected being quickly and conveniently removed.
. Another object of the invention is to provide a drip pan which may be placed upon the floor under a motor vehicle in position to collect oil, etc., falling from the same, and which shall include a number of sheets of water and oil proof material, such as paper, conveniently removable from time to time as they accumulate oil; the device as a whole being relatively simple, inexpensive and substantial in construction.
These objects and other advantageous ends I secure as hereinafter set forth, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which,
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a drip pan constructed according to my invention, the sheet holding frame being shown in its raised position; and Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the drip pan shown in Fig. 1, fur ther illustrating the invention.
In the above drawings, 1 represents a frame which inthe present instance, is substantially rectangular in outline and is provided on its under face with a sheet metal back or bottom 3, permanently held in position in any desired manner. Within the relatively shallow container thus formed, I place a number of sheets 3 preferably of paper of such composition as to be water and oil proof, the dimensions of said sheets being such that they snugly fit within the frame so as to be easily inserted or removed. For the purpose of holding the mass or body of these sheets 3 within the frame 1, I provide an open rectanguluar holding frame 4: which loosely fits within the main frame 1 and-rests upon said sheets adjacent their edges.
Under the conditions of use the drip pan formed by the parts above described and containing a column of oil proof sheets is placed under the motor vehicle or other Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed June 26, 1913.
Patented Apr. 21, 1914:. Serial No. 775,975.
machine from which it is desired to collect the oil or other material, and as this latter collects upon the uppermost of the sheets 8, the latter may be removed merely by raising the holding frame 4: into the position shown in the drawings and withdrawing this top sheet. Obviously the same operation may be performed whenever any predetermined amount of material collects upon the topmost of the sheets. Since the sheets 3 are water and oil proof, those lying underneath the upper sheet are not in any way affected by the liquid collecting within the drip pan, it being, of course, understood that the uppermost sheet is removed before the amount of liquid thereon becomes sufficient to run to the edges of the container.
While the drip pan above described is particularly designed for catching the oil or grease falling from the various parts of motor or other vehicles, it may be used for catching or collecting liquid falling from machines or other devices. WVhile the removable sheets employed are preferably made of oil proof paper, they may be in some instances, of absorbent or other sheet material, and the bottom of the container may likewise be made of any suitable sheet material other than metal.
I claim 1. A drip collecting device consisting of a relatively shallow container; a series of superposed pieces of flat sheet material within said container; and an open holder frame also fitting within the container adjacent the sides thereof and resting upon the topmost of the sheets therein.
2. The combination in a drip pan of a relatively shallow container; a series of flat superposed sheets of liquid proof material removably fitting within the same; and an open frame loosely resting upon the uppermost of said sheets and likewise removably fitted within the container.
3. The combination in a drip pan of an open frame having a bottom formed by a body of sheet material; a series of super posed sheets of oil proof material loosely fitting within the container formed by said frame and the bottom; with means for removably holding the sheets within said container.
4. The combination in a drip pan of an open frame having a bottom formed by a body of sheet material; a series of superposed sheets of oil proof material loosely fitting within the container formed'by saidframe and the bottom; with means for reinovably holding the sheets within said con-- tainer; the same consisting of an open resting upon said sheets and loosely fitting Within the first frame.
5. A drip collecting device consisting of a relatively shallow container; a series of superposed pieces of sheet material within the container; and a member engaging the topmost of said sheets at the edge thereof while leaving the body of thesheet'exposed, for removably holding said sheets within the container.
(In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
