CONTAINER ron. LEADS.
Application filed March 20, 1925. Serial No.16,383.
This invention relates to containers in generalv and more particularly to containers which are adapted for containing leads and such containers, as will permit the ready identification of the color or the characteristics of the leads in the container without necessitating the opening thereof.
It is therefore an object of this. invention to provide a container of the above mentioned class which may be easily and economically manufactured and distributed,
It is further an object of this. invention to provide a device of this class which may be used conveniently.
It is also an object of this invention to provide a device of this type in which the leads may be readily identified as to their characteristics, such as color, etc. i
It is further an object of this invention to provide a device of this type which is rugged.
With the above and other objects in view, as will be apparent, this invention consists in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts, all as hereinafter more fully described, claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
On the drawings:
Figure 1 represents a front elevation of an embodiment of this invention.
Figure 2 represents a vertical section of the same;
Figure 3 represents a front elevation of another embodiment of this invention.
Figure 4. shows a vertical section of the same.
Figure 5 shows a front elevation other modification of this invention. Figure 6 shows a vertical section same.
Figure 7 shows a vertical elevation of still another modification of this invention.
Figure 8 shows a vertical section of the same. i
As shown on the drawings; I I
As shown in Figure 1,nu1neral 1 represents a transparent cylindrical container closed at one end, the upper end of which is adapted to be closed by a stopper 2 which of anof the fits in said last mentioned end. The con-.
tainer 1 is of sufiicient length to receive therein a plurality of leads 3 which may be of different colors, the purpose of the transparency of the container 1 being to permit prompt identification of any individualcharacteristics of the leads 3 therein. An aperture 4 is made in the bottom of the container 1 for the purpose of allowing air to rush out said aperture when thestopper 2 is forced in position in the container.
In the modification shown in Figures 3 and 4 the transparent containerl is inclosed in a second cylindrical container 5 of a more rugged material, such as metal. The corn tainer 5 is open at one end to receive therethrough the container 1 which snugly fits Within the said container 5. The outer container 5 is preferably apertured as at '6 for permitting a view therethrough of the leads 3 within the inner container 1. An aperture 4? aligned with the aperture 4 is provided in the bottom. It is to be noted that in this form of the invention the inner'transparent V holder is adapted for manipulation within the slotted casing to a certain extent by virtue of the fact that its removable closure or stopper. 2 projects substantially beyond the respective end of the slotted casing so that it forms a handle. By this means the user may turn the transparent holder within the casing in order to permit of a view of all the'leads within the holder through"a single sight slot or aperture of the casing. The cylindrical form of both the casing and bolder facilitates the turning of the holder within the casing, and in this Way and by simply grasping the stopper all of the leads may beviewed with but a single sight slot in the casing so that the latter may give maximum protection to the holder between periods of use.
The aperture 6 may be substituted for by a plurality of transverse cuts 7, said cuts overlapping around the periphery of the container 5 as shown in the modification in Figures 5 and 6 and axially spaced along said periphery. When the apertures in the container 5 are formed as shown by the cuts 7 in Figures 5 and 6, the inner container 1 may be entirely eliminated as shown in said figures, the leads 3 not being so likely to be lost or injured through said apertures as when they are longitudinal as at 6 in Figures 3 and 4E.
In themodification shown in Figures 7 and 8 the longitudinal slot 6 is shown closed by atransparent member 8 which may be cemented in position within the container 5 inner container 1.
It is thus seen that a container is provided which affords means of keeping leads in stock whereby their characteristics may be readily identified without the necessity of opening the container. It is also to be noted that a container is provided in which the leads may be conveniently distributed and referred to.
I am aware that many changes may be made, and numerous details of construction may be varied through a wide range without departing from the principles of this invention, and I therefore do not purpose limiting the patent granted hereon, otherwise than necessitated by the prior art.
I claim as my invention:
A container for leads consisting of a transparent holder open at one end'thereof to re ceive and discharge leads, a casing around said holder having a slot through which the leads within the'holder may be viewed without removing the holder fromthe casing the said holder and casing being of cylindrical form permitting rotation of the holder within the casing, and a removable closure associated with the open end of the holder said closure projecting substantially beyond the respective end of the casing and forming a handle for rotating a holder within the casing.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed my name.
CHARLES J. JOHNSON.
