Description
UNITED STATEs THOMAS M. BELL, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
IMPROVEMENT IN MILK-CANS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 119,559, dated October 3, 1871.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THoMAs M. BELL, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Milk- Oans; 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 same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification, in which the figure is a side View of my improved milk-can, partly in section, to show the construction.
My invention consists in a new method of cutting out the pieces of which a milk-can is formed in order to economize the material and lessen thecost thereof, and of connecting base and bottom, as hereinafter fully described and subsequently pointed out in the claim.
A is the body, B is the breast, O is the neck, and D is the cover of the can, about the construction of all of which parts there is nothing new. E is the base or bottom band, around the outer side of the upper edge of which is formed a rabbet to receive the turned-down edge of the bot tom F and the lower edge of the body A. F is the bottom, the edge of which is turned upward so as to lie closely along the upper part of the inner surface of the bottom band E, and is then turned over the upper edge of said band, as shown in the figure. This construction of the bottom leaves no seam or joint at the base of the can for the milk to lodge in and sour, and thus enables the can to be more easily kept clean and sweet. G is the bottom hoop, which is made solid in one piece, and is struck up into the form of a flange around the edge of a flat disk of sheet metal. The flat central part is then cut out, leaving the hoop G of exactly the right size to fit around the bottomof the can, where it may be secured in place in the ordinary manner..
The cut-out central part of the disk is then used to form the neck G of the can, so that there is no waste of metal. H is the breast hoop, which is formed solid in one piece by striking up the outer part or edge of a disk of sheet metal into the desired form. The central flat part is then cut out, leaving the hoop H in proper form to fit upon and overlap the upper part of the body A and the lower part of the breast B, as shown in the figure. is used for forming the cover D, so that there is no waste of metal.
By this construction the various parts of the can, being formed by dies, will exactly fit their proper places, thus saving a great amount of time and labor in putting the can together.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The method of forming the hoops G H, neck 0, and cover D from two disks of metal without waste, and in the manner described.
The above specification of my invention signed by me this 24th day of January, 1871.
THOMAS M. BELL.
Witnesses J AMEs T. GRAHAM,
The central cut-out part of the disk
