CHARLES A. YATES AND HARRISON GRISWOLD, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., ASSIGN'ORS- OF ONE-HALF TO ALICE H. GRISWOLD AND ONE-HALF TO LOUISA R. HOUCHIN, BOTH OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
LOCKING HANDLE DEVICE FOR RECEPTACLES.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 16, 1914.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that we, CHARLES A. YATES and HARRISON Gnrswom), citizens of the iluited States, both residing in the city of New York, county and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Locking I-Iandle Devices for Beceptacles, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention relates to devices adapted to hold together two separable members or parts in a substantially locked condition, regardless of whether these members or parts are in a state of rest or suspension, or of being conveyed or carried about by hand, with the object of preventing the accidental or intentional and designing separation of such members or parts for any purpose whatsoever.
The devices of our invention are applicable to numerous articles of manufacture, such as hand receptacles for garbage, icecream receptacles, freezers &c. In fact, almost any and every receptacle device where there are two separable parts to be held together, or a body receptacle and removable cover to be held together.
In carrying out our invention, we employ a bail handle of peculiar construction pivoted to one part or member and adapted to be swung over into extreme positions to be held in or come to a stop in an intermediate position, and in the latter and one extreme position, to engage a projection of the other member and hold the same against displacement or separation, whether accidental or designedly intentional. The pivot or inturned ends of the bail handle are provided with bends, coils or crooks. These ends are pivoted to one member and the other member is provided with projections to be engaged thereby and held as the handle is turned, all of which is hereinafter more particularly set forth.
In the drawing, Figure 1 is a perspective view representing the application of our invention to a garbage can. Fig. 2 is a side elevation with the bail handle thrown over in one extreme position, and the projections in sections, as per dotted line m 00 of Fig. 8. Fig. 3 is a plan, Fig. at is a side elevation with the bail handle in an upright position for carrying or transporting the can and Fig. 5 is a broken elevation on a reduced scale showing a modified form of the bail handle.
Referring to Figs. 1 to 4, inclusive, a represents the body of a can and b the cover. These parts are preferably of sheet metal, galvanized, and of any desired proportions. The upper end of the body is flanged and the cover sets down over the flange to a r1b of the body, and the edge of the cover flange may be formed with a bead for stiffenmg the same. 0 represents a metal strap plece, extending transversely of the cover and riveted thereto. It is shown as raised at the center to form a handle 0 for lifting the cover from the body. The opposite respective ends of the strap are shown as proectlons a standing out from the sides of the cover. These projections are horizontal, or in other words, at right angles to the vertical sides of the can, and they may be provided with opposite edge notches, as shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3. This strap member 0 may be in part fiat and in part round, instead of all flat, as shown in Fig. 1. This modification is shown in Fig. 1. (Z are ears secured to opposite sides of the body near the upper edge. These ears may be of cast metal or may be stamped up of sheet metal, and they are secured by rivets 2 to the body and are preferably offset at the upper part to form two lugs 0 The projections ofthe straps 0 come between these lugs 0 and the edge of the cover flange sets within these lugs, hence the lugs tend to center the cover and prevent the rotation thereof. 6 represents a bail handle. The respective ends of this handle are inturned to provide the pivots 3 which pass into holes in the cars (l.
-Near these pivots 3 the ends of the bail handle are provided with bends or crooks e 6 the bend 0 being formed on the arc of a circle, the radius of which is approximately equal to the distance between the center of the pivot point 3 and the upper surface of the projections 0 In the position shown in Fig. 1, and in which the bail handle may be grasped to support the can and transport the same from one place to another, it will be noticed that the bend 6 extends over the projection 0 and that the bend or crook 6 comes beyond the bend e and forms a union between 6 and the bail handle 6, and also comes beyond the ed e of the projection 0 hence the body of t e can would have to swing very much out of the vertical position or the handle be bent considerably out of the position illustrated with reference to the body to bring the forward part of the bend e away from the projection 0 so as to release the cover. When the bail handle is placed in the position shown in full lines, Fig. 2, the bends or crooks 6 at the ends of the handle, are entirely free from the projections 0 and the cover I) may be readily removed from the body a of the can, and when the bail handle is placed in the position shown in dotted lines, Fig. 2, the bends or crooks 6 at the ends of the bail handle, engage the projections 0 and the cover is locked to the body of the can even more securely than it is when the handle is in the position shown inFig. 1.
We have shown in Fig. 5 a modification of our invention, in which the weight of the can or receptacle a and contents come directly on the pivot bend 3 of the bail handle 6 and in which the bends or crooks e e are in the free ends of the bail handle, within the limits of the handle, and do not carry any part. of the weight. In this modification, the crooks or bends e e perform the locking function with reference to the cover and strap projections 0 the same as in the other figures of the drawing, and even with the sameadvanta'ge in carrying the receptacle by the handle 0 if the bail handle is turned down into locking position and it is desired to lift or carry the receptacle thus.
We do not limit our invention to the precise character or location of the bends or crooks at the ends of the bail handle, nor to the cross section of the strap 0 over the cover, as the function performed by the bail handle '6 and its bent ends will be just as efficient when the strap member is made round, as shown in Fig. 4, as when made flat.
NVe claim as our invention:
:1. A receptacle including two members, projections extending from one of the said members and a bail handle pivotally connected to the other of said members and having adjacent its endsbends or crooks adapted to-coa'ct with the said projections so that in one extreme position of the handle and in all positions between the same and an intermediate position the said bends or crooks engage the said projections to lock the members together and when the handle is in other positions the said bonds or crooks are disengaged from the said projections to permit the separation of the said members.
2. A receptacle including two separable members, projections extending from one of the said members and a bail handle pivotally connected to the other of the said members adapted to swing to extreme positions at the sides of the said members and having adjacent its ends bends or crooks the radius of which is approximately the distance between the pivotal points of the said handle and the surfaces of the said projections, the said bends or crooks being adapted to coact \Vllll the said projections so that in one extrenur position of the handle and in all positions between the same and an intermediate position the said bends or crooks engage the said projections to lock the members together and when the handle is in the other extreme position the said bends or crooks are disengaged from the said projections to permit the separation of the said members.
3. A receptacle comprising an open ended body member, a cover adapted to set down on the body member, a cross piece extending over and beyond the cover and a bail handle pivotally connected to the body member and having crooks therein coacting with those portions of the cross piece that extend beyond the cover so that when the handle is placed in one extreme position the said hooks engage the said portions of the cross piece extending beyond the cover and so lock the cover in position and when the handle is placed in its other extreme position the said crooks are free from those portions of the cross piece extending beyond thecover so that the same with the cover may be readily removed from the body member.
Signed by us this 24th day of June, 1912.
