MEANS FOR HANDLING WASTE PAPER, BAGS, AND THE LIKE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Au". '7, 1917.
Application filed October 23, 1916. Serial No. 127,229.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, ROBERT J. MOGILL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the countyof Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Means for Handling Waste Paper, Bags, and the like, which I call a Storer.
The objects of my invention are to provide means for handling the waste paper which will overcome the objectionable features that exist where the paper is baled or allowed to accumulate in the basement or where it is stored in sacks or crates until hauled away. None of these systems are sanitary nor are they absolutely fireproof. The operation of baling takes a great deal of time. My invention provides a fireproof, sanitary, rapid system of storing paper, bags of paper and the like which will at the same time be easy to handle, and is designed particularly for use in the basements and boiler rooms of schools, residences and the like where the need of a fireproof receptacle is particularly felt.
I attain these objects by the mechanism and means illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a side elevation of a storer.
Fig. 9. is a drawing of the receptacle or bag which is inserted in the storer and laps over the sides as shown in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a side elevation of a modification of my invention in which an open top crate is used for the inner receptacle instead of the bag, shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
Fig. at shows my device where several bags are used, the storer simply being a sanitary fireproof container for the paper handled by my process.
The storer 1 is a large box made of metal or other fireproof material, provided with handles 2 at either end. A lid 3 closes the top making the storer a fireproof sanitary container. It is evident that the bag or receptacle need not lap over the sides of the storer but may be held in place inside of it by well known means such as hooks. It is further evident that the metal box or storer may be used for storing the bags of paper as they are collected. This method shown in Fig. 4 is advisable where the paper is collected in small bags. It gives a fireproof safe system or process of handling and the paper is very easily moved from the storer to the wagon to be hauled away.
The top or lid is hinged at the back 5, by
a plurality of hinges so as to make it easily handled. It is also evident that the sides of the storer maybe hinged so that it may be opened and the bag or portable receptacle A removable receptacle which may consist of a bag or crate is inserted in the storer and when a bag is used as in Fig. 1 it preferably laps over the top as shown. Rods '11 and 12 are held in position by the open ended hem, sewn on the top edges of the bag 1' as shown. The removable receptacle may be made of any suitable material, but when a bag is used as the subcontainer it is preferably made of burlap or a waterproof noninflammable material. It is not absolutely necessary that means be provided for clos ing the top of the bag or crate.
In the form of storer shown in Fig. 4: the steel box or storer 1 is used as a recepta cle for a pli'lrality of bags 7 and 8. These bags are filled and closed before being placed in the storer. The lid has a sunken portion or reliner panel 9 to facilitate securely closing the storer, making it practically air tight. serves to limit the motion of the lid 3 so that it cannot be left open. The same result may be obtained by a chain attached to the inside of the lid and side of the storer.
I do not wish to be limited to the exact construction shown inasmuch as it may be varied without departing from the spirit of the invention.
The operation of my invention as shown in Fig. 1 is as follows:
The lid 3 is raised and paper thrown into the storer or bag which is inclosed by the storer. The lid is then allowed to drop back in place and the operation repeated when more paper has accumulated. The operator i may get inside of the storer and tramp the paper tight or place weights on top of a plunger and allow it to rest there until the paper is settled. This operation is repeated until the storer is filled. The rods 11 and 12 are then brought together as shown in Fig. 2 and wires or string 13 and 14 wrapped A stop 10, Figs. 3 and t around each end, securely closing the container. The projecting portions or ends of the rods serve the draymen in lifting the bags out of the storer into the wagon. It is evident that the floor, if made of concrete or fireproof material, may serve as the bottom of the box 20 when it is desired to economize on material. It will be noted that all of the adaptations of my invention dispense with the time taken in baling paper and at the same time put the paper in a fireproof marketable condition.
The modification shown in F ig. 3 com prises a box 1, made of fireproof material, having a lid provided with a sunken portion or panel 9. The lid is hinged to the back by a plurality of hinges 5. The box has a door 15 hinged to one of the ends at 16 and 17 and is provided with means for holding it securely closed as shown at 18. A removable open top crate 19 of well known construc tion is inclosed by the box which prevents any danger of damage being done should the contents of the crate catch on fire. Chain stops 20 serve to limit the movement of the lid of the box when it is raised to throw paper into the crate. Vhen the crate is full of waste the front door is opened and it is removed and hauled away. The material out of which the c "ate 19 is made is of such a nature that it is not necessary to suspend it in the box as has been heretofore necessary.
I am aware that paper and rags have formerly been stored in bags and crates and my invention lies in the combination of the bag or crate means or process of storing with a fireproof container or storer. The use of the fireproof material is a very important element of my invention, for when bags of paper or loose papers are stored in wooden crates or the like, without having the crate, bags, or other subcontainer inwhile being filled, and to enable one to securely close the bag by clasping the rods together, using the rods to lift the bag out of the box.
2. In a waste container, a box made of fireproof material, having a hinged lid, an open top bag or receptacle inclosed therein, having open ended hems which lap over the top of the box, rods through the open endedhems for the purpose of holding the bag in position and facilitating its removal, and a lid for completely inclosing said box and its contents.
3. A device of the class described comprising a box made of fireproof material, a bag inclosed therein, rods through the upper edges thereof engaging with the box and suspending the bag, said box being provided with a hinged lid and having one of its sides hinged horizontally so that it may be swung out of the way when it is desired to remove the bag.
4. A device of the class described comprising a box made of fireproof material, a bag inclosed therein, rods through the upper edges thereof engaging with the box for suspending the bag, a lid hinged to one of the sides, the hinges being so formed as to permit one of the rods to rest between them and the box, and having one of its sides hinged horizontally so as to facilitate the removal of the bag.
