SPENCER 0. LOYD, 0F MODESTO, ILLINOIS.
BURIAL-CASKET.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 20, 1917.
Application filed January 3, 1914, Serial No. 810,235. Renewed August 1 1916. Serial No. 112,617.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SPENCER O. LOYD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Modesto. in the county of Macoupin and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Burial-Caskets, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in burial caskets and has to do more particu larly with the metallic type of the casket which may be either used alone, and provided with the suitable upholstery and interior decorations, or as a casing to inclosc a burial casket formed of wood.
One of the principal objects of the invention is to provide novel means whereby an air-tight closure of the lid may be effected with the major portions of the fastening means disposed interiorly so as not to cletract from the exterior appearances of the casket.
The invention also has for its object the provision of a casket which will be water and vermin proof and which will protect the contents in the manner required and by means of novel constructions which will be more fully described in connection with the accompanying drawings and more particularly pointed out and ascertained in and by the appended claim.
In the drawings:
Figure 1, is a view in side elevation of a burial casket showing one form of my invention.
Fig. 2, is a plan view thereof.
Fig. 3, is a top plan view of a glass support.
Fig. 4., is a sectional view on line H of Fig. 1.
Fig. 5, is a top plan view of the glass top.
Fig. 6, is a sectional view on line 6-6 of Fig. 5.
As illustrated, 1, designates the body of the casket which is shown formed of an integral mass of material, preferably metal, provided nearest the upper portion with an outwardly projecting lid attaching flange 2. The flange 2, is tapped at suitable intervals, as indicated at 3, and the upper face of the flange is preferably serrated, as indicated at 4.
A lid 5, is shaped to conform to and fit over the lid supporting flange 2, provided with serrations 6, on its flange portions 7 A gasket 8 of any suitable material, may
be disposed between the lid frame 5, and the flange 2, to form an air-tight closure as indicated in Fig. 4. Screws 9, are employed to secure the lid frame in position and it will be readily seen that'whenthe screws 9, are turned down, the opposite serrated. faces will engage opposite faces of the gasket so as to provide a most eflective joint.
The lid frame 5, is provided with an inwardly projecting glass holding flange 10, which is attractively and ornamentally rounded as at 11, to provide a pleasing exterior appearance. In the form shown, I have illustrated a glass of the long type but it will be understood that a short glass can be readily used by providing a different form of lid. In the present construction, the lid frame 5, is provided with an opening 12, beneath which a full length glass 13, is disposed.
The inner face 1 1, of the glass holding flange 10, is serrated, and outwardly with respect to the serrated face 14, I recess the flange as indicated at 15. Furthermore, the flange is provided with a seat 16, for a glass clamping strip 17, which preferably is an endless strip adapted to extend throughout the margin of the glass 13, and in supporting relation beneath the same. The glass 13, is preferably provided with a serrated margin 18, between which, and the serrated lower face 14, I dispose a gasket 19, of lead or other suitable material. The glass supporting strip 17, engages the seat 16, and the glass 13, and may be held in place by screws 20, having their heads disposed interiorly of the casket in engagement with the strip 17. The glass supporting flange 10, is not tapped throughout its depth to receive the screws 20, and therefore, the latter, and in fact all of the glass fastening means will be concealed beneath the flange 10, as will be clearly seen be reference to Fig. 41.
It will be seen from the foregoing that I have provided means for sealing and fastening to the inner side of a casket lid, an in spection glass, the fastening and sealing means being invisible from the exterior of the casket. In putting on the lid, the glass will be first fastened and sealed and then the lid frame 5, will be sealed to the body 1, in a manner which will now be clear.
IVhile I have herein shown and described one specific form of my invention I do not wish to be limited thereto except for such limitations as the claim may import.
I claim:
A burial casket comprising in combination, a containing body, a lid therefor provided with an opening having its lower 11121-1- ginal face serrated, a glass for closing said opening and having a serrated margin, a
gasket between the serrated faces of the glass and said lid, said lid having a clamp seat on the inner face thereof and disposed outwardly of said serrated face, a strip clamp engaging said seat and the lower face of'said glass inwardly of said opening, and fastening means disposed on the inner face of sand lid for holdlng sznd clamp .in place, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature 1n presence of two witnesses. V SPENCER O. LOYCD.
Witnesses L. G. BROWN, 0. W. FEELY.
