T. E. DANIELS. BURIAL-CASE.
Patented July 25,1876

, TAYLOR E. DANIELS, or DETROIT, MIGHIGAN.
IMPROVEMENT IN BURlAL-CASES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 180,207, dated July 25, 1876; application filed July 16, 1875. i
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, TAYLOR E. DANIELS, of Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented certain Improvements in Composition-Marble Burial-Case, of which the following is a specification:
My invention consists in providing an arti ficial-marble coffin with a metal strengthening-frame, having eyes or holes to receive the bolts which hold the handles in place, so that the strain of the handles is received directly upon the frame, thus permitting the use of thin light walls, and avoiding all danger of their being fractured by the handles; in casting the coflin of Keans or other similar bydraulic cement which will produce a hard impervious surface, and then painting and graining the same to represent wood, whereby I am enabled to produce an imperishable and highly -ornamented coffin, which cannot be distinguished from those of wood, at less than one-half their cost; and in providing the strengthening-frame or metal edging of the coffin-walls with points or lips to secure the lining or upholsteringin place. 7
Figure 1 represents a side elevation of my case or coffin Fig. 2, a cross-section of the same, having the frame in the center of its walls; Fig. 3, a cross-section of the same,
with the frame on the inside face of the walls; Figs. 4 and 5 perspective views of two forms of the frame and edging.
The object of my invention is to produce an imperishable stone coffin, which'shall be at once light, strong, and cheap, and which shall be susceptible of a high polish.
The material, when prepared, whether of the cement alone or the compound, is poured into suitable molds, and permittedto set and harden, after which it is removed, and the outer surface polished by the ordinary processes employed in 'corrpection with natural marble. The su'rface may bl"eft plain, 'in imitation of marble, or it may be coated, grained, and varnished, to imitate the ornamental wood, the advantage of the latter being that a'coffin possessing the appearance of a highly ornamental and elaborately-molded wooden coffin may be produced at a comparatively trifling cost.
In order to givethe coffin great strength and admit of its being made light and neat, I cast its body upon a skeleton-frame, G, such as represented in Figs. 4 and 5.
iron, in a thin light form, is firstplaced in the mold, and the material cast in place over and around the same. The construction may be such that the frame will be inclosed and concealed within the walls and bottom, or it may be seated in or upon the inner faces of the same, care being taken in either case to have the material unite with and take a firm hold upon the frame.
For the purpose of giving a firm support to the coflin-handles, I provide the wire frame with eyes a, and the sheet-metal frame with holes a, through which to pass the bolts or screws for securing thehandles in. place. When molding the coffin I place cores in the eyes or holes for the purpose of forming the bolt or screw holes in the body, and thus avoid the expense and danger of drilling them, as would otherwise be necessary.
In order to give the coffin a finish, as well as to protect its edges and admit the ready and secure attachment of I the lining or trimming, I provide the upper edges of the body with an edging, D, by placing the same in.
the mold and casting the body thereon in the same manner as on the frame. This edging may be made of any suitable form in crosssection, and of sheet-iron, cast-iron, wood, or other appropriate material. When inade of sheet metal its inner side may be provided with small points or books b, secured to or struck up from the metal, for the purpose of receiving and holding the lining-cloth. The frame and the edging may be used independently, or they may be united, as shown in the drawing.
Having described my invention, what I claim is- 1. The artificialmarble coffin, provided with a metal strengthening frame, 0, having eyes or hole a to receive the screws or bolts The frame, which may be made of wire or cast or sheet which secure the handles in place. as shown 3. The artificial marble coffin, provided and desorihed,\vliereby the strainiot' the hauwith a metal frame or edging. having the dies is thrown upon the frameand the fracseries of points or lips b, to receive and seture of the wall prevented. cure the lining or upholstering in place.
2. An artificial-marble coffin, composed of TAYLOR E. DANIELS. hydraulic cement, painted and grained on its Witnesses: exterior in imitationof WOOd, as a new article 1?. T. DODGE,
of manufacture. W. (l. DODGE.
