Description
THUS HARVEY IMPT'SIN BARREL'S. 10232 v w PATENTED DEC 20 1870 t me T (tffim THOMAS HANVEY, or 'ELMA, NEW YORK.
Letters Patent, No. 110,232, dated December 20, 1870.
IMPROVEMENT IN BARRELS.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same. I
I, TnoMAs HAnvsY, of Elma, in the county of Erie and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Barrels and similot Receptacles, of which the following is a specili HOD;
Nata-re of the invention.
. The invent-ion relates to straight barrels, oftwo or more thicknesses, one overlying another, and consists in pnttinglengthwise on the outside of such barrels hoops or clamps, secured by screws, said screws also forming the rests for the heads. 1
It also consists in the formationof the heads of two thicknesses, with the grain crossing, as hereinafter described General Description.
In the drawing- Figure 1 is a perspective view.
Figure 2, a vertical longitudinal section.
Figure 3,21. view of the bottom of a barrel. Ais the body ofthe barrel, made of two thicknesses of cut stuff, which-arc bent around a cylinder,-
head in place,shown in fig. 3. Theother or top ends of the hoops are simply bent inside the top of the barrel, as shown 'in' fig. '1. These hoops can be made of w'ood,but metal hoops possess an advantage over wooden ones, for, if the barrel shrinks, the hoops will bendand not pull out, as wooden ones would be apt to do.
so are screws, which iasten the hoops or clamps on thebarrel, the upper and lower screws projecting through the barrel, and forming rests for the heads to sit on-,-as shown-in figs. 1 and 2. This I believe to be'a'novel snd'important feature of my invention, I as it does swaywith the usual grooves or shoulders inthe barrel.
The heads B Bare or two thicknesses, d d, of cut stufi, (see fig. 2,) made fulhsized or square-edged, and
not beveled, as is usual. They are secured togetherwith the grain of the wood of the two pieces running in opposite directions, (see dotted lines, fig. 3,) so that shrinkage'canhave no eifect on the circumference.
This is a veryimpcrtant part of my. invention, as it prevents warping, and keeps the periphery of the head perfectly roun A cross-piece, O, is nailed on and through the heads,;which aids in strengthening them, and keeps the weight of theibarrel off the chines, as it comes.
flush to the edge. All'wood shrinks, moreor less,
sidewise with the graiu,.l ut never in its length, and, by. thus crossing the grain of the upper and lower thicknesses, a. perfect circle of the head is preserved,
.Its cheapness over others is secured by making it of cut stufi instead of sawed.
The barrels made in this way possess great advantages, viz., simplicity of form, cheapness of construction, and the safety with which they can be packed one on top'of the other, the perfect arch of the barrel allowing it to resistvnry great pressu|'c;.-
The novelty in my invention consists in the applicationof these straightihoops with bent ends to a straight barrel, composed of two thicknesses, the fastening-screws forming the seats for the heads.
It also consists in the construction and arrangement of the heads, made of two or more pieces, and fastenedtogether crosswise of the grain, and having square insteadof chamfored edges.
What I claim, is v The two-ply barrel,thc heads of which are composed of two or more thicknesses, in combination with the hoops orclamps a a (1, arranged on the outside, and
secured tot-he barrel by screws 0 c, said screws form-.
ing the rests for the heads, the whole constructed substantially as and for the purpose set forth. In witness whereofl have hereunto signed my name in the presence oftwo subscribing witnesses.
THOS. HANVEY.
