IMPROVEMENT IN FIRE-PROOF SAFES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 175,282, dated March 28, 1876; application filed l December 27, 1875.
To all 'whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, TIMOTHY HEINEMAN, of `Covington, in the county of Kenton and State of Kentucky, have invented a newand useful Improvement in Safes, which improvement is fully set forth inl the following specification,
` reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
The object of this invention is to provide a cheap and convenient safe-box, built into, and tirmly anchored within, the walls of dwelling houses, so as to form, in connection with said walls anda lire-proof cement, byl which it is held in place, a safe and ire-proof receptacle- -for papers and other valuables without disgnring or interfering with the finish ofthe Walls of the room; `and consists in a light sheetmetal safe, having a projecting ange around its front edge and upon two or more sides of its back edge, the inclined front iiange forml ing a casing for a fire-proof door, and the rear Hanges anchors to hold the safein position when the asbestus or lire-proof cement is molded around it.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a longitudinal vertical section of the safe fitted to its posiltion in the wall. Fig. 2 is a transverse verti- (-al section taken at right anglesto the viewto the taste of the user or the 4purpose for which it is intended, and a separate drawer or compartment formed in the lowerpart, covered by a false bottom, if desired. This safe is intended to be built in the chimney-wall, either over the mantel-piece or at the side where there is always ample space between the iue and the outer wall. In setting it in position the face of the door` is brought flush with the line of the wall and held in the proper position while the cement is poured in from above, a sufficient opening being left between the top edge of the safe and the wall for this purpose, until the space which is left between the brick-work and the body ot' the safe is completely filled with it. The front of the 'safe may be finished to correspond with the known modes.
I claimv The herein-described vault, composed of the metallic safe, with projecting flanges front and rear, built in a fire-proof cement-setting in the wall of a house, all substantially as and for the purpose specified.
TIMOTHY HEINEMAN.
