Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICEIc GIVEN JUDGE, OF CARBONDALE, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN BARREL-HEADS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 152,495, dated vJune 30, 1874; application tiled May 1, 1874.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, OWEN JUDGE, of Carbondale, Luzerne county, Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in BarrelHeads, ot' which the following is a speciiication This invention relates to a inode of construeting barrel-heads to allow them to be removed without starting the hoops 5 and consists in the combination of the devices employed, as will be hereinafter more fully described.
Figure l is a side view of a barrel, the upper part being in section on the line x a', Fig. Z. Fig. 2 is a top view, showing the anchorpiece xed therein; and Fig. 3 is a vertical section of the barrel on the line y y, Fig. 2.
Similar letters of reference indicate correspondin g parts.
A represents the barrel. B is the anchorpiece, fixed in any substantial manner in the staves of the barrel beneath the head. The head of this barrel consists of four piecestwo principal pieces,- O and D, which are so much less than semicircles that they may be crowded from the middle to the right and left into the croze, and two short pieces, E andF, otl sufficient width to complete the head, but connecting and lapping at the center, as indicated by dotted lines in Fig. l. rlhe inner edges ofthe parts C and D are beveled, so that the space between them, when they are placed in the croze, is wider at the top than bottom. The pieces E and F are beveled to lit this space, so that when their outer ends are placed in the croze, and they are forced down by the central bolt, they act like a wedge to press the parts C D laterally, while makin g tight joints with them in the middle of the head. center of the anchor-piece H is the bolt which passes through the iron washer I, and through a hole in the inner ends of the pieces E F. When this bolt is screwed down into the anchor-nut it forces down the pieces E F to a level with the pieces C D, and forms a tight head. I
This same device may be applied to cashs and kegs of every description, and is important when the article contained has to be inspecte, as the head may be readily removed without starting the hoops.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent The anchor-piece B, provided with the nut plate Gr, in combination with the sectional head U D E F, bolt H, and washer I, all constructed substantially as shown and described, and for the purposes specitied.
