SHEET-METAL SINK CONSTRUCTION.
Application filed December 10, 1926. Serial No. 153,819.
My invention consists in an improvement is formed of a continuous sheet or blank of in sinks and similar constructions, for the sheet metal, bent to provide the rear wall 2, purpose of providing a Vessel or utensil havbottom 3, and front wall 4, the corner bends ing a continuously smooth interior surface being rounded, as shown, to provide con- 5 over the interior of the several walls of such tinuous integral construction.

Such edges, at the front, as plain, or are finished by application of shown in Fig. 1, are formed by turning the enamel or otherwise, the overlapping edges metal outwardly and downwardly, as clearly effect a more or less abrupt interruption to shown, providing a substantiall half round the smooth interior surface, with crevices, rim 9, and such rim extends across the front small pockets, and other objectionable Variaupper edge of the sink as an integral-portion tions, tending to collect foreign matter and of the continuous wall plate 2-3-4.
preventing the easy cleaning of the interior. The sides 10 of the sink are made of In my improved construction, I avoid these separate sheet metal blanks, pressed in suit objections by so constructing the walls and able dies to form inwardly turned rounded their joined portions by an interfitting conlower corner portions 11 and outwardly and tinuous surface welded connection between downwardly turned rounded upper edge porthe meeting edges at various points so as to tions 12, at each Side. lhe latter correspond provide continuous flush surfaces through I in size and are on the same general plane as out, with an avoidance of the objections the front rim 9, so as to effect a continuous above noted. 1 rim from the side edge portion of the back One preferred embodiment of the invenatone side, along the front, and then back tion is illustrated in the accompanying drawalong the other side to the opposite side edge ings, in which: portion of the back, as clearly shown in Fig. l is a perspective view of the body Fig. 1. a

Fig. 8 is a detail view showing the cut- The back wall 6 is cut out, as indicated at 'out portion of the rear wall for inter-fitting 13, for joint connection with the rear edge connection with the side wall, in forming of the upperrounded rim 12, and the side '50 such corner connection. edge portions of the back 2 are also out out,
The sink as a whole, in the form shown, as at 14, to a distance equalling the inward projection of the rounded corner portions 15 of the sides, 10. By such construction, the sides, when placed in position, interfit throughout with the main front, bottom and back portions, and are flush therewith at every point.
The meeting edges, as thus brought together, are then electrically welded continuously along the line a, from the front, along the bottom and clear to the back, so that the sides as thus joined are, in effect, flush continuations of such portions. The corners of the rounded rims 9 and 12 are similarly joined and welded", as at 16, the corner terminals being provided with a miter face for such purpose, as shown.
At -the inner rear-upper corner portions of each side connection, immediately below the juncture of the rounded edge 12 with the back, there is formed a small angular pocket, due to the upper edge terminal of the inner rounded fillet formation of the.
As thus connected, there is a substantially integral juncture between the'several walls forming the basin or bodyportipn of the sink, and its parts. Any projections or roughness along the weld-ed seam a may be ground off or otherwise removed so as to render the interior surface smooth, after which it may be covered with an suitable coating material, as an enamel fiIllSll, or tin coating, or hot galvanized treatment.
The vessel may, however, be left unfinished, and will still maintain its advantages, due to the manner of construction, if it is desired to use it without any fiIllSll whatever.
For the purpose of heating the-sink or its contents, as for cleaning or other purposes,
. I provide a burner 20 of any suitable construction, provided with a gas supply pipe 21, to effect combustion immediately under the sink bottom.
A surrounding downwardly extending coping or apron 22 of sheet metal, preferably perforated, surrounds the burner, protecting it from draft, and enclosing the combustion chamber, as clearly shown in Figs. 3 and 4.
The various advantages of the invention .will be readily understood and appreciated 1. In the construction of sheet metal sinks and the like, a continuous blank forming a back, bottomvand front wall, cut out at the back for abutting connection with the side walls, and side walls having inwardly turned edges and outwardly turned rims welded thereto.
2. In the construction of sheet metal sinks I welded thereto, and outwardly turned rim portions. 7
.3. In the construction of sheet metal sinks'and the like, a continuous blank bent upon itself to form an upwardly extending fiat faced back, abottom, and a front wall having an outwardly rounded top rim portion with chamfered corners, and side walls having rounded corner portions bent inwardly with their edges in abuttingengagement with the edges of the front, bottom and back portions and welded thereto.-
4. In the construction of sheet metal sinks and the like, a continuous blank bent upon itself to form an upwardly extending flat faced-back, a bottom, and a front wallhaving an outwardly rounded top rim portion with chamfered corners, and side walls having rounded corner portions bent inwardly with their edges in abutting engagement with the edges of the front, bottom and back portions and welded there to, the front wall and side wall portions having outwardly turned rims welded at their meeting edges.
5. In the construction of sheet metal sinks and the "like, a continuous blank bent upon itself to form an upwardly extending flat faced back, a bottom, and a front wall having an outwardly rounded top rim portion with chamfered corners, and side walls having rounded corner portions bent inwardly with their edges in abutting engagement with the edges of the front, bottom and back portions and welded thereto, the rear wall portions being cut out to conform to the rim portions of the sides and welded thereto.
