BECEPTAGLE AND MATCH-HOLDER. I
Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Dec, 26, 1916.
Application filed June 14, 1915. Serial No. 33,941.
Winston-Salem, in the county of Forsyth and State of North Carolina, have mvented new and useful Improvements in Receptacles and Match-Holders,'of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to receptacles and though the inventionis applicable to a receptacle for any substance, by way of illustration it is described in the following specification as applied to a receptacle. for tobacco.
A principal object of the invention is to provide a receptacle with a match holder arranged in such a waythat the match holder can be readily attached to the receptacle without greatly increasing the cost of the receptacle.
A further object of the invention is to construct the match holder in such a way that it can be attached to a receptacle of common form without necessitating any changes in the construction of the receptacle.
A further object of the invention is to arrange the match holder and receptacle in such a way that one of the walls of the re ceptacle forms a closure for the open side of the match holder.
Further objects of the invention will appear more clearly hereinafter.
The invention consists in the general com-- bination of parts and details, all of which contribute to produce an efficient receptacle and match holder.
A preferred embodiment of the invention will be described in the following specification while the broad scope of the invention will be pointed out in the appended claim.
. In the drawing, Figure 1 is a perspective illustrating the invention as applied to. a receptacle for smoking tobacco, and this view shows the match holder in its open position. Fig. 2 is an end elevation and partial sec tion taken at the bottom of the receptacle and further illustrating details of construction of the receptacle and match =holder.
Fig. 3 is a side elevation and longitudinal section taken at the bottom of thereceptacle and passing through the match holder. Fig. 4 is a'perspective showing the match holder removed from the receptacle.
Referring more particularly to the parts, 10 represents a receptacle which, if desired,
may be of a common form 'now employed for carrying smoking tobacco and presenting the general shape of a flat oval, that is, it presents two oppositely disposed flat sides or walls 11 connected by integral curved. portions 12. The upper end of the receptacle is provided with a movable cover 13 which maybe hinged on'one side as at the point 14.- These receptacles are usually made of sheet metal and the plate which forms the vertical or side wall of the receptacle is usually secured to the bottom 15 of the receptacle by crimping the edges of these parts together. In this way a pair of oppositely disposed beads, 16 and 17 are formed adj acentthe oppositely disposed side walls 10 and passing continuously around the lower edges of the curved portions 12 of the receptacle. In applying the invention to such a receptacle I prefer to provide a matchholder 18 the general shape of which is similar to that of the cover 13, that is, the match holder is preferably in the form of an elongated open pan having a bottom wall 19 and having a side-fiange20 extending continuously around the same. This holder is preferably attached to a receptacle in such a way that when the holder is in its closed position, the bottom wall 15 of the receptacle forms a closure for the upper side of the match holder, and the match holder'is arrangedv so that when in its open position,
matches 21 will be exposed so that they may be readily removed. In order to accom plish this efiect, I prefer. to provide the flange 20 on opposite sides of the holder with outwardly curved cleats or lips 22 which are preferably formed integrally with the flange 20. These cleats are arranged so that the holder may be slid longitudinally into position under the bottom 15 with the cleats engaging the beads 16 and 17 so as to retain the match holder on the re flange 20 lies against the under edge of the.
beads 16 and 17 and also under the curved portions 24 which unite the ends of these beads. In this way the match holder forms a substantially tight receptacle for the matches within it. It will be evident that this match holder can be readily produced and attached to a tobacco receptacle such as that described without making any changes in the construction of the receptacle, and hence, such match holders may be provided as an accessory for such receptacles at a minimum expense.
It is understood that the embodiment of the invention set forth herein is only one of the many embodiments or forms the inven tion may take, and I do not wish to be limited in the practice of the invention nor in my claims to the particular embodiment set forth.
I may use any feature of my invention without the other features.
What I claim is:
The combination with a relatively wide portions thereof a pair of opposing cleats, I
which cleats and the flange form entrant ways, adapting the pan for sliding engagement with the beads for the connection or disconnection of said pan from the receptacle-body in either of two opposite directions, the bottom wall of the receptacle constituting a cover for the pan When the latter is connected with and positioned beneath the receptacle body.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence nesses.
