Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EDGAR B. JEWETT, OF BUFFALO, NEW YORK.
IMPROVEMENT IN BIRD-CAGES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent NO- 133372, dated November 26, 1872.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDGAR B. JEWETT, of the city of Buffalo, in the county of Erie and State of New York, have invented a certain Improvement in Bird-Cages, of which the following is a specification:
This invention relates to the means employed for supportingthe feed-cups of bird-cages; and it consists in the combination, with a bird-cage and a feed-cup provided with an outwardly-projeeting' flange, of a wire loop so hinged to the wires of the bird-cage as to form, when turned down into a horizontal position, a support for the cup which is set therein, the said loop being turned up alongside of the cage when the cup is removed, so as to enable the cages to be closely packed for transportation.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure I is a perspective View, showing the feed-cup supported bythe wire loop. Fig. II is a similar view with the feed-cup removed; and Fig. III, a view showing the wire loop turned up for packing the cage.
Like letters refer to like parts in each of the figures.
arepresents the vertical wires of a bird-cage, and a a horizontal cross-piece connecting the same in the middle. B is the feed-cup, of the kind known as the half cup, preferably made of glass, and provided with an outwardly-projecting flange, 1), arranged around the base of against the outside of the cage.
the hood. 0 is the wire loop by which the feedcup is supported, with its flat side resting The wire loop 0 is hinged to two of the vertical wires to of the cage above the cross-piece a, by forming at its ends small bent-up loops 0, of a size sufficient to enable the loop 0 to be turned down into a horizontal position. In this latter position the loop 0 is supported by the cross-piece a, and
projects out from the cage, so as to fit under the flange I) of the feed-cup when the latteris placed in the loop, thereby forminga simple and reliable support for said cup.
When cages are to be packed for transportation the feed-cups are removed from the loops 0 and the latter turned up against the side of the cage, as shown in Fig. III, in which position they do not project, and enable the cage to be packed closely together.
\Nhat I claim as my invention is- The combination, with the wires a and crosspiece a of a bird-cage and the feed-cup pro-
