UNITED sTA'rEs PATENT OFFICE.
HENRY M. CHEEK, OF FERNDALE, ARKANSAS, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO ALEXANDER R. LEVY, OF LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS.
i CAN-HOLDER.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, HENRY M. CHEEK, a citizen of the United States, residing at Ferndale, in the county of Pulaski and State of Arkansas, have invented a new and useful Can-Holder, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a device for holding and supporting cans or jars in a vessel for cooking or steaming the contents of the cans or jars, and is designed for use in preserving fruits, vegetables and the like.
The device claimed may be made in different sizes and may be placed in a washtub to convert the same into a canning ma chine.
It is the object of the invention to provide a simple and inexpensive device, which will be practical and efiicient in use, the device being cheaply stamped from sheet metal and shipped in flat form, so that a number of the devices can be stacked compactly.
In the accompanying drawing,
Figure 1 is a plan of the device in completed form.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged sectional view on the line 22 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a fragmental plan showing a portion of the blank out of which the claimed structure is formed.
The device comprises but one parta plate 1 of sheet metal or other bendable material of circular or other suitable contour, adapted to be disposed in a boiler or other vessel (not shown). The plate 1 is provided at its margin with a number of outstanding spacing lugs 2 which are bendable, either upwardly or downwardly, according to the size of the vessel, for holding the plate against shifting movement. The lugs 2 are normally disposed in a common plane with the plate, but can be bent to accommodate the particular vessel in which the plate is placed.
The plate 1 is provided with a number of openings 3 large enough to receive the cans or jars, and the plate has tongues 4;, 5, and 7 projecting into each opening radially thereof when the device is in the form of a blank. The tongues 4 are bent downwardly, in the completed article, to provide supporting legs 4* adapted to rest on the bottom of the vessel thereby to support the plate 1 at the de- Specification of Letters Patent.

sired distance from the bottom of the vessel. The tongues 5 are bent downwardly, in the completed article, thereby to provide hangers 5, and at their lower ends the tongues 5 are bent inwardly, as shown at 6, to provide supports for the can 8 which is inserted downwardly through the opening 3, as indicated in dotted line in Fig. 2. The tongues 7 are bent upwardly to form grips 7 adapted to hold the jar or can against tilting movement. The device may be shipped flat, as indicated in Fig. 3, to save space, and the tongues can be bent, as above described, when the device is to be used. The cans or jars are inserted downwardly into the openings 3 between the grips 7 to rest on the supports 6 of the hangers 5 The jars are thus spaced from the bottom of the vessel and from one another as well as from the rim of the vessel, so that the contents of the cans or jars will be cooked uniformly, and without danger of the are breaking by contact with one another.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
1. A can holder comprising, in a one piece structure, a plate having an opening, there being first, second and third tongues about the edge of the opening, the first tongues be ing downwardly extended to form legs, the
second tongues being downwardly and inwardly extended to fashion can supports, and the third tongues being upwardly extended to constitute can grips.
2. A can holder comprising, in a. one piece structure, a plate having an opening, there being first, second and third tongues about the edge of the opening, the first tongues being downwardly extended to form legs, the second tongues being downwardly and. inwardly extended to fashion can supports, and the third tongues being upwardly extended to constitute can grips, the plate being provided, about its periphery, with outwardly extended bendable spacing tongues.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of'two witnesses.
HENRY M. OHEEK. Witnesses J. W. TIGHE, FRED MCDONALD.
