Patented June 24, 1930 I-IOXVARID C. LESLIE, OF MILTON, IVIiSSACIIUSETTS ASSZGNQR TO B. 13,. E. IvIAN'UFAC- TUBING 00., CF HYDE PARK, DTASSAGI'EUQEETEE, A GQBPQRATICN OF MASSACHUSETTS WATER-CLOSET SEAT AND LIL? Application filed Gctober 22, 1929.
This'invention relates to water closet seats and the like and has for its object the production of an article of this character which is composed of a wooden core entirely covcred with sheet celluloid, pyroxylin or similar material. in such a manner that said sheets are secured permanently to the core.
This object is attained by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawing.
For the purpose of illustrating the invention, one preferred form thereof is illustrated in the drawings. this form having been found to give satisfactory and reliable results. alth ugh it is to be understood that the various instrumentalities of which the invention consists can variously arranged and organized, and the invention is not limited to the precise arrangement and organization of these inst mentalities as herc- 2 shown and described except as required hv the scope of the appended claims.
Of the drawings:
Figure 1 represents a plan of a water closet seat, embodying the principles of the present invention.
Figure 2 represents a section of the wooden core of same, on line 2, 2, on Fig. 1. and showing recesses in the corners thereof.
Figure 3 represents an elevation of a per tion of a strip of celluloid adapted for insertion in said recesses.
Figure 4: represents a section of said strip on line 4, 4, on Fig. 3, and
Figure 5 represents a section of the completed seat, on line 2, 2, on Fig. 1 after the core has been covered by sheet celluloid.
Similar characters indicate like parts throughout the several figures of the drawinns.
In the drawings, 10 is a water closet seat formed of a. wooden core 11, which core has near the bottom and at the corners thereof recesses 12.
At the inner end of each of these recesses 12 is a smaller depression 13 separated from the main recess 12 by the contracted neck 14.
To fill eachof the recesses 12 a strip 15 of plastic material such as celluloid is used, this 5 strip having a tongue 16 extending diago- Serial No. 101,395).
nally therefrom as indicated in Fig. 1 of the drawings.
The body portion of the strip 15 is adapted to fit the depression 13 and the tongue 16 while in plastic condition is adapted to be forced through the contracted neck 14- into the depression 13 and be compressed into the shape indicated. by dotted lines 1? in Fig. 1 so to completely lill the depression 13.
llhen this has been accomplished the strip 15 is firmly locked to the core 11 so that it cannot be displaced therefrom.
The strip 15 is heated sufiiciently to permit it to bend and conform to the outline of the recesses 12 around the edges of the seat 10 and at the same time permit the insertion of the tongue 16 into the depression 13.
A sheet of celluloid 18 or some similar material suitably shaped is then heated and cemented to the bott n1 face of the core 17 and is also cemented to the under faces of the strips The upper surface of the core 17 is then covered by another sheet 19 of plastic material such celluloid which cemented to the surface and also to the side faces of the strips 14.
The lower edges of this sheet 19 are als cemented to the edges of the bottom sheet 18.
As a consequence the wooden core is completely enclosed within a covering having a smooth surface this covering preventing any moisture from contacting with the wooden core.
The result is that the seat is perfectly sanitary and may be readily cleaned.
While celluloid. is mentioned as the material from which the sheets 18 and 19 are made, it is obvious that a variety of other materials may be used without deviating from the invention, provided said materials are impervious to moisture.
While a water closet seat is shown in. order to describe the method of enclosing a wooden core, this core could be the cover to a water closet or some similar object without departing from the invention.
The lower corners of the seat or cover are the portions which are subjected to the greatest amount of wear and by making these corners with the inserted solid strips 15, the seat and cover are greatly strengthened and reenforeed at the particular point subjected to the greatest amount of wear.
Before inserting the strips 15 into the recesses 12 and 13 these strips are softened by heat or other process and the sheets 18 and 19 are likewise softened by heat or other proc oss before being cemented to the surfaces of the core 11.
Before applying the sheets 18 and 19 to the surfaces of the core, the entire surface of the core 11 and the outer faces of the strips 14 are covered with a suitable cement and then the sheets are fastened to the core under pressure.
As a consequence, the sheets will adhere closely to the snrtace of the core 11 and. to the strips 14. while at the same time the pressure applied to said sheets will cause the upper sheet 19 to join with the edges of the bottom sheet 18 at 20.
When the seat or cover is completely covered in this manner, there will be no joint at any point, as the sheets 18 and 1?) will form one unitary covering Seats and covers termed in this manner will be perfectly sanitary and their life will be greatly prolonged.
It is believed that the operation and many advantages of the invention will be understood without further description.
Having thus described my invention. 1 claim- 1. In an article of the class described, a wooden core having recesses in the corners thereof; strips of plastic material embedded in said recesses: and sheets of material such as celluloid cemented to the surfaces of said core and to the outer faces of said strips.
2. In an article of the class described, a wooden core having recesses in the corners thereof: strips of plastic material embedded in said recesses and cemented thereto; and sheets of material such as celluloid cemented to the surfaces of said core and to the outer faces of said strips.
3. In an article of the class described, awooden core haying recesses in the corners thereof; strips of plastic material embedded in said recesses: a sheet of material such as celluloid extending over the bottom of said core and cemented to the under faces of said strips: and another sheet of material extending over the upper surface of said core and cemented t0 the side faces of said strips.
4. In an article of the class described, a wooden core having recesses in the corners thereof; strips of plastic material embedded in said recesses: a sheet of material such as celluloid extending over the bottom of said core and cemented to the under faces of said strips; and another sheet of material extending over the upper surface of said core and cemented to the side faces of said strips and also to the edges of said bottom sheet.
5. In an article of the class described, a wooden core having recesses in the corners thereof; strips of plastic material embedded in said recesses; means for locking said strips in said recesses; and sheets of material such as celluloid cemented to the surfaces of said core and to the outer faces of said strips.
6. In an article of the class described, a wooden core having in the corners thereof recesses with shoulders in the Walls thereof; strips of plastic material embedded in said recesses and retained in position by said shoulders; and sheets of material such as celluloid cemented to the surfaces of said core and to the outer faces of said strips.
7. In an article of the class described, a wooden core having in the corners thereof recesses with contracted neck portions at the inner end: strips of plastic material having tongues adapted to be locked in said recesses by said contracted neck portions; and sheets of material such as celluloid cemented to the surfaces of said core and to the outer faces of said strips.
