Definitions

Description

UNIT D STATES HENRY KELLER, OF SAUK CENTRE, MINNESOTA.
IMPROVEMENT IN OIL-CANS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 139,318, dated May 27, 1873; application filed April 5, 1873.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY KELLER, of Sank Centre, in the county of Stearns and State of Minnesota, have invented a new and Improved Oil-Can, of which the following is a specification:
My invention consists of a cylindrical body with flat ends, arranged horizontally on legs, with a filling-tube on the top, the spout on one side and a stationary handle on the other, and a swing handle on the top side of the cylinder, the object being to have a can which will not be subject to the wear that the ordinary cans are on the bottom, and will be less liable to turn over when full in consequence of being top-heavy, and it will not cause its contents to spurt out on the ground when a filled can is set down as the common cans do, owing to the springing of the flat bottoms.
Figure 1 is a plan View of my improved can, and Fig. 2 is a transverse section taken on the line a: a: of Fig. 1.
Ais the cylindrical body of the can, which I provide with legs B at each end on one side;
i also, with the filling-tube C at the center of the side opposite the legs; also, with the spout I prefer to make the two legs for each end of a single bar or strip of metal, so attached to the cylinder at each end, bentupward at the middle, and secured th'ereat to the can, as
shown in Fig. 2; but they may be constructed.
otherwise, if desired.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent A sheet-metal can, consisting of a horizontal cylinder, A, with legs B, filling-tube 0,,
spout D, and handles arranged thereon, substantially as specified.
HENRY KELLER.
