UNITED STATES- PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES GREEN AND WILLIAM WILSON, JR, OF WILMINGTON, DEL.
IMPROVEMENT IN POWDER-KEGS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 140,913, dated July 15, 1873; applicationfiled July 2, 1873.
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that we, CHARLES GREEN and WILLIAM WILSON, J r., of Wilmington, Delaware, have invented an article of manufacture in the form of a new and useful Powder-Keg; and we do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and precise description thereof, which will enable those skilled in the art to which .it appertains to understand the construction and make use of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing which forms a part of this specification, and
general excellence are claimed in almost equal proportions.
We know that various powder-kegs are now in use, constructed of wood or metal, either separately or in combination, and their general excellence we do not deny; but we hold that a keg constructed upon the principle herein described, while equally adapted to subserve all purposes for which intended, can yet be made and sold at a reasonable profit to the manufacturer at a much lower figure than others heretofore in use, thereby greatly benefiting the trade and the public at large.
The construction of our keg is as follows: We construct, primarily, a cylinder, or its equivalent, of any textile fabricpaper or pasteboard, for instance-of any convenient dimensions, and this we do either by wrapping a piece of thin paper of any length, but of invariable width, many times around'upon itself till it be thick enough, and gluing, riveting, or in any way fastening the ends; or we take the fabric of the desired thickness at once and simply bend and join, as most convenient, by riveting, lacing, or any other method; and we hereby state that we do not confine ourselves to paper or pasteboard, but make use of any textile, plaited, or woven fabric whatever.
A in the drawing represents this cylinder. Fitting tightly over both ends of this cylininder are two circular beads of wood, B, or 1 any equivalent material, and of convenient thickness, provided with shoulders 0 projecting all around without the cylinder A, and
with a deep circular groove, D, following the internal periphery of the shoulders G, into which the cylinder A fits tightly. Running transversely between these two heads B are any convenient number of staves, E, fastened by means of screws or nails, dovetails, or their equivalent, into the shoulders G of the circular heads B, which brace, connect, and. give stability to the whole keg. Centrally located, upon one of the circular heads B, is any ordinary bung-hole, F, provided with a screw-stopper fitted and countersunk therein,
to admit powder.
The cylinder is prepared with paint, shellac, varnish, or any insoluble, water-proof, or other preparation, to render it more enduring.
What we claim as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is-
A powder-keg, constructed of a cylinder of paper, pasteboard, or any equivalent fabric,
' connected and inclosed by heads and staves,
in the manner and for the purposes substantially as hereinbefore set forth.
CHARLES GREEN.
WM. WILSON, JR.
