UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EDWARD H. WHITNEY, OF CAMBRIDGE, ASSIGNOR TO DOVER STAMPING COMPANY, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPROVEMENT IN MATCH-SAFES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 169,129, dated October 26, 1875; application filed October 8, 1875.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD H. WHITNEY, of Cambridge, Massachusetts, assignor to the DOVER STAMPING COMPANY, have invented an Improvement in Match-Safes, of which the following is a specification:
This invention relates to the making of match-safes. By the practice of it a matchsafe is produced, cheap, ornamental, strongly put together, in which the parts are thoroughly and firmly united without solder, and all of them formed by dies, stamps, and headers usual in tinners"machinery.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective of the complete safe, and Fig. 2 is a series of detached views of' the several parts going to the composition of the box, with their details.
A is the piece making the back and bottom of the box. It is stamped out of the shape shown in Fig. 2, and is creased along the dotted lines 00 m and z 2, so as to bend it at right angles along line w .70. A roughness, c e e e, is stamped in the bottom to scratch the matches upon, much like the surface of a nutmeggrate'r. Two ears, jj, are formed on the sides, as shown, which serve as-part of the locking device, and the creases at z 2 determine the line of bend. The cover B is also stamped out of tin or sheet metal, is rounded up and beaded so as to form a neat job and tight joint at the front edge, and two holes, is k, are made in the rear edge of the cover. Staples 0 0 pass through these holes in the cover, and are attached to the back plate A by passing their ends through holes 61 d d d, and solder-, ing or riveting on the back side. The front plate F isshaped as in Fig. 2, has slots 9 g at each end, beyond which the ears h h are formed by creases, continuing the line of the slots 9 to the upper and lower edges. crease is also laid in along the line 3 3 and the lip l bent inward at right angles along this line. The piece F is bent to form the front of the box, the bottom inserted within the angle formed by lip l, the earsj put through slots 9,
and the ears It and j bent inward and downward upon back A, looking all together. By making the top B domed the cover cannot be left 0pen,'.because the staple-hinges O Kare of such a character that the doming of the top always gives it a preponderance forward, and
if left to itself it will shut.
I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent- .As a new article of manufacture, a box whose sides, back, bottom, and top are composed of the pieces A B F, arranged and co mbined together by slots 9 g and ears hj, sub stantially as and for the purpose described.
