Be it known that l, LINDLEY W. Moons, a citizen of the Unit d States, residing at San Francisco, in the county of San Francisco and State of California, have invented new and useful improvements in Dustpans, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in dust pans and has particular reference to a dust pan having a bottom which may be dropped so as to permit the discharge of dirt therefrom. 7
Another object is to provide a dust pan which will retain the dirt against accidental spilling as is common with ordinary dust pans.
Another object is to produce a dust pan which is cheap to manufacture and there-- fore well within the purchase price of the average user.
Other objects and advantages will be ap parent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Figure I is a perspective view of my improved dust pan,
Figure II is a. bottom plan view thereof, and
Figure III is a cross section showing the bottom in a dropped position.
The ordinary dust pan consists of a single piece of metal and is provided with no means for retaining the dirt within the pan with the consequent result that a dust pan is often tipped and the result of considerable effort is lost as the dirt must be again swept into the pan. It ismy intention to provide means for retaining the dirt within the pan and also to provide means whereby the dirt may be readily discharged from the pan, and l have accomplished these objects in a novel manner and by referring to the drawings it will be noted that the numeral 5 designates the bottom of a dust pan which has upturned sides as shown at 6 and 7.
At 29 and 31 l have shown curved spring icinbers which are attached to the bottom ll-shaped member 16. These members permit movement of the bottom relative to the U-shaped member.
The operation of my device is as follows Assuming that the parts are assembled as I 5 u L -shaped name 16.
it is to be understood that the form of my invention, herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same and that various changes in the shape, size and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims.
Having thus described my invention, 1 claim 1. in a dust pan, a base having upturned ill) 2. In a dust pan, a base having upturned side edges, extensions formed on said side edges, a U-shaped frame pivotally secured to said extensions, a handle secured to said 5 U-shaped frame, an inclined portion secured between the extremities of said U-shaped frame, a latch plate positioned on said incline'd frame, a latch slidably positioned beneath said base and adapted to be moved into contact with said latch plate, and spring 10 members for permitting relative movement between said base and said U-shaped frame. In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
LIN DLEY \V. MOORE.
