The object of my invention has been to provide a receptacle which may be made flat for shipment and maybe readily erected by vthe purchaser into form for use, and particularly one which may be used as an indijvidual ash-tray to be destroyed after use,
and to such. ends my invention consists in,
the receptacle hereinafter specified. In the accompanying drawings: Fig. l is a vertical sectional view of a re'- ceptacle embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is a plan view thereof.
Figs. 3 and 4 are similar views of the receptacle of F ig. l in flattened condition forv shipment.
My invention is capable of embodiment in many different forms, and while I have chosen for illustration an embodiment which is the best embodiment thereof known to me, such embodiment is to be regarded as typical only of the many possible embodiments and my invention is not to be confined thereto.
The particular embodiment of my invention shown in the drawings is a receptacle for cigar and cigarette ashes, which is intended for use in hotels, -and is so inexpensive that the hotel can afford to fiirnisha new one for each guest, so that each guest shall have a clean one, and one which will serve as an advertisement of the hotel if the guest takes it away with him, and yet the hotel will be protected from the considerable expense due to guests taking away the usual expensive metal or china ash trays, as now frequently occurs.
The said ash tray, when in form for ship ment. consists of a disk A of paper having a facing A of asbestos or other non-inflammable material. The lsaid disk A is fastened to another and preferablysmaller disk B, which may be of stiff cardboard, the disk A being thin enough to be easily bendable for reasons which will soon appear.
rllhe disk A has a series of metal strips C fastened Athereto in radial position and eX- tending across the asbestos 4face thereof and fastened to the edge, as by being bent over strip lE which may .one of the fastenings D and which carries the edge and back along the under face of said disk. F astenings D secure the strips C and the disks A and B together.
Means for forming a cigar holder are also preferably provided in the form of a metal be secured at one end by at the other end a metal plate F that is preferably scored parallel to the strip, so that it can readily be bent up into a rounded shape to hold a cigar.
When the blank shown in Figs. 3 and 4 is to be erected intofcondition for use, the user simply bends the outer ends of the metal strips C into substantially vertical position relative to the base B, the point of bending not only beingautomatically determined by the outer fastenings D,'but being indicated to the user b the position of such fasteniiigs and pre erably also by a circle on the disk A passing through said outer fastenings D. Thus the outer portion of the disk A is. formed into and held in tluted shape, making a receptacle or dish that is eicient and also attractive in appearance.
'Ihe strip E is then bent upward and outward and is hooked over the edge of the receptacle, which brings the plate F into horizontal position. F inally, the said. plate F, 'owing to its being scored, is readily curved by means of the fingers into shape to hold a ci ar.
f desired, the portions of the strips C which lie upon the bottom of the receptacle thus formed may be covered with a disk of asbestos or other non-inflammable material.
It will be seen that I `have provided an ash tray which is so compact in its blank form that-a large number of them can be shipped in 'a small space. It will also be seen that the blanks are very readily formed into receptacle shape without requiring skill .in doing so and that thereceptacle is both safe from fire and very convenient to use. The ash receivers are Socheap that, as
stated, hotels can readily afford to give one form tov constitute the sides of such tray, and
stifening applied to said edges for retaining them in said form.
2. An ash tray comprising sheet material, having its edges bent up in luted form to constitute the sides of said tray, and bendable-metal retaining means attached to said edges for retaining them in said form.
3. A receptacle comprising a single sheet of paper or like material, the sides'being formed by bending up the material around i 'the periphery and being held in erect posiand metal strips being secured to the bottomy and to the sides to hold said sides in erectedV tion by strips of metal secured to the bottom and to the sides of said receptacle.
4. A receptacle comprising a single sheet ofpaper or 'like material, the sides being forr'red by bending up the material around the periphery and being held in erect position by strips of metal secured to the bottom and to the sidesof said receptacle, the said sides being fluted.
5. A receptacle formed of paper compris-- ing adisk of paperor similar material, the central portion of said disk forming the bottom of the receptacle, the outer portions of said disk being bent up to form the sides position. p 6. A 'receptacle comprising -a relatively stiff base, a'disk of paper or similar material j secured-to said base, said disk having aseries of .metal strips radially secured thereto, the means forsecuring-,said strips to said base being placed within the confines of the bottom of the receptacle, Isaid strips extending substantially to the periphery of the disk and beingsecured thereto, the material between said strips being fiuted,
7. Al receptacle comprising a relatively stiff base, a disk of paper orsimilar matey 'rial secured to said base, said disk having a series of metal strips radially secured thereto, the means for securing said strips to said 45' l bottom ofthe receptacle, 4said strips extendbase being placed within the confines of the ing substantially to the periphery of the disk and being secured thereto, the material between said .strips being fluted, and a cigar holder conslsting of a'metal strip secured to said base and to a side of the receptacle,
i and meanson said strip for holding a cigar.
8. A receptacle comprising a relatively stiff base, a disk of paper or similar material secured to said base, said disk having a series of metal strips radially secured thereto, the
9. A blank for a receptacle comprising a central portion of which is adapted to form the bottom of the receptacle, there being metal strips secured to said bottom and to the peripheral portions of the blank, whereby the sides of the receptacle may be formed by bending up said peripheral portions and said metal strips. y
10. A blank for a receptacle comprising a substantially flat sheet of fibrous sheet material and bendable metal-retaining means secured to the edge of said sheet, whereby said edge may be bent up into fluted form to constitute the fsides of said receptac-le and may be held in such form by said metal retaining means.
11.V The combination of a base for a receptacle, said base being formed of relatively stiff lmaterial and a blank for said receptacle comprising a disk of paper or like material, the central portion of which disk is adapted to form the bottom of the receptacle, said central portion being fastened to said base and radial metal strips secured to said bottom and to the peripheral portions of the disk, whereby the sides of the receptacle may be formed by bending up said metal strips.
v12. The combination of a base for a-recep tacle, said base being formed of relatively stid material and a blank for said receptacle comprising a disk of paper or like material,
the central portion of which disk is adapted to `form the bottom of the receptacle, said central portion being fastened to said base, and radial metal strips secured to sai-d bottom and to the peripheral portions of the disk, whereby the sides of the receptacle may be formed by bending up said metal strips and luting the material between said strips.
13; A blank for a receptacle comprising 'flat disk'of paper or similar material, the
a flat disk of paper or similar material, the
central portion of which is adapted to form the bottom of the receptacle, there being metal strips secured to said bottom and to the peripheral portions of the blank, whereby the sides of the receptacle may be formed by bending up said peripheral portions and said metal strips, said blank having attached thereto a metal strip carrying a metal plate, said strip being adapted to bebent up 'and over the edge of the receptacle and said plate being adapted to be bent into a trough shape to hold a. cigar. 14. The combination of an ash tray formed of asbestos and a support therefor of paper made of a vegetable material substantially fitting and sustaining said tray throughout its under surface.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing, I have hereunto set my hand this 9th day of March, 1921.l y
