GARBAGE-CAN.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 1, 1918.
Application filed March 16, 1917. Serial No. 155,173.
,To all whom it may concern:
dent of Glendale, county of Queens, and
State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garbage- Cans, of which the following is a specification.
' This invention relates to improvements in ash or garbage cans, and has as its principal object the provision of means whereby dust and odors are prevented from rising from the can at any time, as at the entry of material therein.
A further object is to provide a can which presents a neat and clean appearance rather than the repulsive appearance of ordinary garbage cans when opened.
These and other like objects are attained by the novel design, construction and combination of parts hereafter described and shown in the accompanying drawings, forming a material part of this disclosure, and in which Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a garbage can made in accordance with the invention.
Fig. 2 is a fragmental rear view showing the separator hinge attachment.
Fig. 8 is an edge view of the separator.
Fig. 4: is a vertical sectional view taken on line l1 of Fig. 1. t
Fig. 5 is a similar sectional view showing the separator in another position.
Fig. 6 is a side elevational view of the upper portion of the can, and
Fig. 7 is a transverse sectional View taken on line 77 of Fig. 5.
The main portion or body of the can is comprised of a cylindrical vessel having side walls 10 and an imperforate, integrally formed base 11, the same ending in an open top, the body being provided with a carrying handle or bail 12.
A cover 14 is formed with flanged edges 7 15 adapted to closely engage the open top of the can 10 and be placed directly upon the vessel, the same being further provided with a handle 16 by which it may be raised and manipulated when desired.
Thus far the description of the can will cover one of ordinary construction.
The invention is comprised more particularly of a cylindrical shell 18 open both at the top and bottom, the lower portion of which is adapted to engage over the open top of the can 10 in the same manner as the cover, the cylinder being provided with op.- erating handles 19 extending upon diametrically operated sides.
Secured within the interior of the cylindrical shell 18 is a semi-circular band 20, the flanged portion of which extends inwardly, and on the side opposite the band 20 is an open passageway or slot 22, extending around essentially one-half of the circumference, the passage or slot beginning and ending co-incident with the band 20 and immediately below its flanged element. Another semi-circular band 21 is secured to the interior of the cylindrical shell 18, so that its inturned, upper, flanged edge is in register with the slot 22, the band being adapted to rest on the open top of the can 10, limiting the lowering of the shell 18, and also providing a semi-circumferential seat for the plate 28 when the latter is in a closed position.
A fixed-vertical bar 23 extends diametrically across the interior of the cylinder 18, the ends being secured coincident with the ends of the band 20.
At the rear of the can, and closely adjacent to the end of the bar 23, are secured to the cylinder 18, a pair of bracket elements 25 by rivets or otherwise, carrying a pin 26 by means of which a circular plate 28 ishingedly attached, the same being operated with in the open slot 22 by the'extending handle 29, formed directly opposite the pin 26, by which the projection 27 of the plate 28 is engaged.
Secured vertically within the semi-diameter of the cylindrical element 18 is an arcuate partition plate 30, the upper portion of which is conically formed and terminates in a straight portion 81,'ending'in a conical lower portion 32, the lower edge of which is coincident with the upper surface of the slot 22, and attached between the wall 31 and the wall of the cylinder 18 is a flexible wiper 35, the same normally extending below the edge 32 and adapted to engage with the upper surface of the plate 28 as it moves in and out of the slot, covering the latter when the plate is fully out beyond the cylinder.
In operation, the cover 14 being removed from the top of the can 10, the cylinder 18 is placed in position thereon, until the upper end of the can makes contact with the flanged portion of the band 21, in which position the plate 28 is adapted to move readily in and out of the slot 22, below the fixed the plate 28, then in an innermost position,
and it will be noticed that the plate 23 causes the material entered to be divided into two relatively equal portions, so that when the handle 29is operated to move the plate out of the slot, equal portions of the entered material are deposited uniformly within the can 10.
At the same time as the plate 28 is moved outwardly, the scraper 82 removes any accumulations that may be thereon, depositing the same within the can, which is further accomplished by the rubbing effect of the elastic flexible element 35, thereby keeping the top of the plate 28 in a clean condition.
If the cover 14 be placed in position prior to the moving of'the plate 28 away from the slot, obviously, the entire contents will be deposited within :the can without dustor odors arising, and it is equally apparent, that when the cover 14 is in position that no repulsive appearance is caused.
Having thus described my invention, and set forth the manner of its construction and application, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
l. The combination with a garbage can, and a cover suited thereto, of a cylindrical shell adapted to be secured upon the upper surface of the can, said shell having a semicircumferential slot, a bracket extending outwardly from said shell, a circular plate hinged to said'bracket operable in the mentioned slot, an operating means for said plate, and a scraper arranged within said shell adapted to contact with the upper surface of said plate when operated.
2. In a garbage can, the combination with the body and cover, thereof, of a cylinder adapted to be interposed between said body around its periphery upon one side thereof,
a plate fixed diametrically across the lower edge of said plate being in register with the edge of said slot, a circular plate hingedly engaged with said shell on the exterior therev of adapted to operate in and out of the mentioned slot, a rigid scraper in said shell, a flexible, pliable scraper adapted to extend below said plate when said plate is extended beyond the slot, and means for operating said plate.
4. The combination with a garbage can and a cover therefor, of a cylindrical shell suited to be received between said can and said cover, said shell having a semi-circumferential slot in the side wall thereof, a plate hinged 01f the center of said can adapted to operate in and out of said slot, means for actuating said plate, a bar fixed diametrically across said shell, the lower side of said bar being adapted to engage with the surface of said plate, a semi-circularv rigid scraper secured Within said shell adapted to engage the upper surface of said plate, and a pliable scraper contained in the space between the walls of said rigid scraper and said shell adapted to close the slot when said plate is extended. outwardly, and to press closely upon its surface when said plate is moved in the mentioned slot.
In testimony whereof I have affixed my signature.
