ALBERT D. KLAGES, OF SPRINGFIELD, MASSACHSETTS.
DUST COVER FOR ASH (JANS.
Application tiled December 8, 1922. Serial No. 605,594.
To all whom t air/ty concern.'
Be it known that I, ALBERT D. KLAGES,
a citizen of the United States of America,
residing at Springiield, county of Hampden, State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Dust Covers for Ash Cans, of which the following is the specification.
This invention relates to improvements in devices for use on ash receptacles or cans or more particularly a cover for the can in o-rder that the dust arising from pflacing the dry ashes in the can may be prevented from coming out into the room.
It is a well known fact that dry ashes are very susceptible to movements caused by the air currents and are easily carried around and distributed about therooni, especially when removed from the ash pit of a furnace or other heat-ing apparatus.
Broadly, the invention comprises a removable cover adapted to fit over the upper edge of the ash can or receptacle. Forming a part of this cover is an upwardly extending part of such height to permit the door to be located therein for gaining access to the can or receptacle, said door being adapted for vertical movement and operated by the foot of the user and suitable means are provided for permitting the closure or door of the cover to automatically close' when the operator removes his foot from the treadle.
Referring to the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a front elevational view showing the cover in place on the can, the pedal and connecting means between the pedal and closure for operating the closure door for the cover.
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1 showing the manner of attaching the slidable door to the cover, also the upwardly extending member on the cover for supporting a pulley block and over which the cable connection passes.
Fig. 3 is a top plan view of Fig. 1 showing the pedal construction with the part thereon projecting under the can, also the cable connection between the pedal and the door, and
Fig. 4 is a detail view of the part which fits under the can for retaining the pedal construction in place.
Referring to the drawings in detail:
1 designates the usual ash can or receptacle. 2 designates the cover member which is formed with a downwardly extending rim or edge portion 3. Formed as a part or attached to this cover is the upwardly extending cylindrical-shaped member 4. This member is formed with an entrance opening 5 which extends from the top p0rtion 2 to the strengthening bar or piece 6. 7 designates the door for closing the 0pening 5 and having a slidable connection with 65 the part 4 at the edge of the opening 5 as indicated at 8. Attached to and extending upwardly from the member 4 is a piece 9 for supporting the pulley block 10 over which the operating cord 11 passes, one end of this cord being attached adjacent the upper edge of the door 7 as indicated at 12. This cord passes over a second pulley 18 which is located near the upper edge of the member 4. The cord then extends downward through an eye 14. Its lower end is att-ached to the inner end of the pedal member 15 indicated at 16. 17 designates a member which res-ts on the floor and is provided with a circular part 18 which fits partially around the outer curved surface of the can as clearly shown in Fig. 3. Attached to the part 17 is a metal plate 19 that tits under the lower edge of the can and is for the purpose of retaining the pedal or operating construction in place. 20 is a hinge for connecting the parts 15 and 17 together and 21 is a spring which normally acts to torce the pedal 15 upwardly.
The operation of the device is as follows:
The operator places his foot on the pedal 15, lthis causes the door 7 to be elevated and uncover the opening 5. The open position is indicated by the dotted lines 7. The operator then inserts the ashes through the opening 5 and immediately removes his foot from the pedal 15. Upon removal of his toot the weight of the door 7 will cause the same to fall and close the opening 5. The spring 21 will at the same time automatically lift the pedal 15. It desired additional springs, indicated at 22, may be attached to the door 7 and the cover 2 whereby the door or slide 7 will quickly close. The operation o'f the apparatus is such that the dust is quickly confined within the can and prevented from gaining access to the room.
What T claim is:
1. A device for the purpose described. 110 comprising, a removable cover for a suitable receptacle and having an upwardly extendtion after operating the door to open thel same.
2. In an apparatus for the purpose described, the combination, with the receptacle, of a cover therefor, said cover having a part connected thereto and formed with an opening, means for closing the opening, said means including a door construction, means for operating the door including connecting means between the door and the pedal operating device, said operating device beiing designed to be placed beneath the lower edge of the receptacle for retaining it in operative position.
3. ln a device for the purpose described, the combination with a receptacle, of a pedal member adapted to be placed below the lower edge of the receptacle, a cover for the receptacle having an upwardly extending part, anopening formed in the side thereof, a slidable closure door for the opening, and connecting means between the pedal member and the door.
t. In a device for the purpose described, the combination with a suitable receptacle,
of a cover therefor, which is formed with an upwardly extending portion and having an opening in the side thereof for gaining access to the receptacleya part attached to the cover, a pulley mounted on the part to receive a cord, said cord being for operating the door, one end of which is attached to the door and passing overl the pulley and the other end being attached to a suitable pedal device whereby when said pedal device is operated the door will be opened permitting the insertion of the ashes into the receptacle and means for automatically closing the door when the pedal operating device is released.
5. A cover construction for an ash receiving receptacle comprisinga part for engaging the upper edge of the receptacle, an upwardly extending member attached tothe part and formed with an opening there-in, a slidable door for the opening, an upwardly extending part on the member, a. pulley block thereon, a second pulley on the member and an eye on the can engaging part, a pedal device having a retaining part located under the receptacle1 and a flexible connection attached to the door and pedal device and passing through the eye and over the pulley blocks, and means for causing the automatic return of the door when the pedal device is released.
