MATCH-BOX.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 19, 1914.
Application filed April 26, 1913. Serial No. 763,834..
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ODIN GRAVERMOEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Prairie F arm, in the county of Barron and State of isconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Match- Boxes, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in match boxes and its object is to provide a match box provided with a match containing compartment and divided off therefrom a match lighting compartment in which a match lighter is disposed and in which compartment a portion of a match may burn, after being lighted, protected from outside air currents which otherwise might extinguish it before the match could be used.
The invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter fully described in the following specification, pointed out in the claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawing which forms a part of said specification and in which Figure 1 is a sectional view of the box. Fig. 2 is a plan. Fig. 3 is an end elevation.
Like reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
1 is the casing of rectangular formation, provided with a top 2 hinged as at 3. Tithin the casing a vertical. partition & is disposed on one side of which the match containing compartment is disposed and the match lighting compartment upon the other. In the match lighting compartment an angular guide plate 5 is disposed and secured to the casing as at 6, the free termination of this plate being notched somewhat in the shape of the letter V. Between the angular guide plate and the base of the casing a plurality of pins 7 are provided, secured to the partition 4 and disposed in planes at right angles to said partition, the freeends of said pins being just below the free end of the angular guide plate; the portion of the match lighting compartment above the angular guide plate being a combustion cham her and the portion below the same in which Copies of this patent may be obtained for the pins 7 are disposed being a match igniting chamber.
Operation: The box is filled by placing matches, preferably heads down, in the match containing compartment after the top 2 has been opened. To light a match it is manually extracted from the compartment last named and inserted, head down, into the match lighting compartment, the head being passed through the notched end of the angular guide plate 5 and brought into contact with the pins 7 which will light it. It is then withdrawn from the angular guide plate, the burning end remaining in the combustion chamber of the match lighting compartment just above said plate, where it is free from air currents, until combustion has attained sufficient headway to withstand the outside air currents when it is withdrawn and used.
What is claimed is V 1. In a match safe, a match containing compartment, a match lighting compartment separated therefrom, an angular guide plate disposed within said match lighting compartment and a plurality of pins disposed within said match lighting compartment between said angular guide plate and the base of said casing.
2. In a match safe, a match containing compartment, a match lighting compartment separated therefrom, an angular guide plate disposed within said match lighting compartment secured to said casing and having its free termination formed with a V-shaped notch and a plurality of pins disposed within said match lighting compart ment between said angular guide plate and the base of said casing, the free ends of said pins being disposed in the vertical plane of the notched extremity of said angular guide plate.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
