yTNESSES v WMU JOHN MARSHALL, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
IMPROVEMENT IN CASKS AND BARRELS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No.124,601, dated Marchl 12, 1872; antedatxed February 24, 1872.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, J only MARSHALL, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement inA (lasks or Barrels, of which the followin g is a full, clear, and exact description,reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification, and in'which- Figure 1 represents a longitudinal section of a cask or barrel constructed in accordance with my improvement, and Fig. 2 atransverse section ofthe same at the line x cc in Fig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both gures of the drawing.
This invention is similar in certain of its features, and has for the most parts like objects in view to the wood-cased metal cask or barrel for which Letters Patent No. 117,185, were issued to me on the 18th day of July, 1871, but it essentially differs therefrom in the construction of the metallic body, whichis made up of two or more longitudinal sections, instead of two transverse sections united at the bilge, the same, however, being combined with metal ends of a iiattened concave form, so that when Wooden heads are inserted between the projecting ends oi' the staves that compose the casing, air-spaces are formed aroundthe outside portions ofthe metal ends, that, combined with the shape of said ends, allow for the eX- ing of the latter to provide for expansion and contraction of the contents of the cask or barrel, making the latter more solid when full, and less liable to burst or break; said cask or barrel also providing against leakage, and being both capacious and durable. By making the metallic portion of the body in longitudinal sections I am enabled `to make a cask or barrel with a moreperfect bilge, and dispense sections of which the metallic body of the cask is composed, said sections beingm ade of tinned plates, united bylap-joints, riveting, or otherwise, as at a c. B B are the metal ends, which may be made of somewhat stouter metal than the body, and which have their edges turned to form a iiange for riveting them to the body, each of said ends, as viewed from the interior, being of a iiattene'd concave shape. O C are the Wooden staves that, or in conjunction with the Wooden heads D D, constitute the wood casing, said staves, in addition to strengthening the metal body, protecting it from being punctured and injured generally. They may be roughly cut or shapedthat is,'without any regard to a close fit, the one against the otherand it is desirable to have them slightly open or separate, so that room will be left between them for expansion of the metal body. When in their places they are hooped or banded as usual in the construction of wooden barrels. The wooden heads D D are slipped into their places between the proj cctin g ends of the staves by making the latter sufficiently long, and so that they will spring to receive the heads be tween them, said heads D D, when in their places, resting upon and supporting the metal ends B B at their central or attened portion,
but leaving an airspace, b, all around between them and the concave or shelving portions of the metal ends, for the purpose or purposes hereinbefore named. The bung-hole may be variously disposed, and any suitable ventilating arrangement or device be applied, if desired, to the cask or barrel.
What is here claimed, and desired to be secured by Letters Patent, is-
A wood-cased metal cask orbarrel, the metal portion of Which is composed of two or more longitudinal sections, seamed, riveted, or jointed together, so as not to form a transverse division at the bilge, in combination with partially-concave ends, substantially as specified.
JOHN MARSHALL.
