Description
Oct. 17, 1933. A. "r'. HINCKLEY CONTAINER Filed June 20. 1930 Y F. m 0 W Y RH E O N m m up n mw A m 3/ Patented Oct. 17, 1933 PATENT OFFICE My present invention relates to containers, and moreparticularly to containers ofthe type having an'outerand an inner cover, only the outer cover of which is'removed during the normal use of the'contents thereof. More specifically my invention contemplates the provision of a novel construction and arrangement of the parts of a container in co-operative relationship with the contents thereof, whereby the inner cover is locked in position in a novel manner without utilizing any ofthe usual expedients ordinarily employed for that purpose. My invention contemplates further a novel manner of constructing and assembling the container whereby the above results are obtained.
Although containers embodying my invention may be advantageously employed for many purposes, they have proved to be particularly valuable as receptaclesl'or deodorizing', disinfecting, fumigatingand other chemica compounds having a high'vapor tension andwhich function by giving up vapor to the surrounding atmosphere. I will describe and illustrate my invention in-connection witba container adapted to be used as a I receptacle forinsecticides and insectifuges, such as paradichlorbenzene. In a small closed chamber, as for examplaa garbage can, this compound is particularly effective in killing flies, maggots and, in'fact, all forms of insect life which ordinarily-breed thereinduring the warm seasons of the year. When placed in a larger chamber, such as a clothes closet, the vapors emanating from this compound act as a repellant to drive away moths and other insects. The form of my invention illustrated is particularly well suited to be conveniently secured to the under surface of a garbage receptacle cover.
In the drawing, Figure 1 is a sectional view of a container embodying my invention, and
Figure 2 is a sectional view of a closed chamber showing the preferred manner of using the container for the purpose described herein.
Referring to the drawing-reference numeral 10 designates generally a container comprising a cylindrical lower cup-shaped portion 11 having a bottom 12, integrally secured to the periphery of which is a flange 13 which serves as the container side wall. Side wall 13 is provided with a head 14 which extends completely therearound, the beading operation resulting in the formation of an annular recess 1411 which extends around the inner surface of flange 13. A cover 15 is adapted to fit over the top of member 11, the depending skirt portion 16 of said cover resting on. said bead 14 and being in frictional en- 1 [CONTAINER v v T. Hinckley, Niagara Falls, N. Y. I Application June 20, 1930. Serial No. 462,618
6' Claims. (01. 299-24) gagement with the upper portion of side wall 13. The top portion of cover 15 is foraminous. Perforations 17 are formed therein permitting access of air to contents 18 when the device is in use.
A drive-screw 19, having a head 20 and threads 50 21, extends through recess 15-a formed centrally of cover 15 and into member 11 to a point adjacent bottom 12 for a purpose to be hereinafter described. The diameter of recess 15a is substantially equal to the root diameter of threads 21, so that the screw may be turned into position in the cover. The tip of screw 19 is made of hardened steel. To prevent vaporiza tion of contents 18 until such time as the device is placed in use, an outer cover 22, having 9. depending skirt 23 is placed thereover in such a manner that the inner surface of the lower portion of skirt 23 is inv frictional engagement with the outer surface of the skirt 16 of inner cover member 15.
In filling the container and assembling the parts thereof, the paradichlorbenzene is heated until it is in the liquid state and a quantity sufllcient to fill member 11 to a point above bead 14 is poured therein. Before the mass has cooled sufliciently to solidify, cover 15 and screw 19 are placed in the position shown in Fig. 1. It will be noted that screw 19 extends for a substantial distance into the mass 18. The mass is then permitted to solidify, after which cover 22 is placed in position.
The advantages of my invention will now be apparent. The arrangement described permits of removal of cover 22 without danger of accidental removal of cover 15 and without the necessity of securing cover 15 to member 11, by beading, soldering, or other operation ordinarily employed for that purpose.
The solid mass 18 is held within container 11 by that portion of said mass occupying recess 14-a. Screw 19, being firmly embedded therein for a portion of its length, serves as a holding means to retain cover 15 in position on the container. It will thus be seen that this arrangement results in a compact construction, the component parts of which are rigidly interconnected. Without holding means in addition to the friction between members 11 and 15, it would be difficult to remove outer cover 22 without removing cover 15 as well, due to the frictional force therebetween.
. In Figure 2 I have shown one manner of using the device described. Reference numeral 26 designates a garbage container having the conventional sheet metal cover 27, adjacent the inner surface of which member 10 is secured. The vaporgiven oil. by the paradichlorbenaene contained in member 10 is appreciably heavier than air and will gravitate down into the garbage in the bottom of container 26 and kill flies, mag- Bots and other insects.
To place the device in the position shown in Figure 2, cover 22 is removed and screw 19 is unscrewed from its position illustrated in Figure 1, driven through cover 2''! with a hammer or other implement, and then turned with a screwdriver until head 20 is against the outer surface of cover 27. The hardened steel point permits the screw to be readily driven through cover 27 without injury to the screw. The device is then screwed on to the protruding threaded portion of the screw 19, the threads 20 fitting into the recesses formed in the mass 18 by the solidification of said mass therearound.
From the above description it will be seen that I have provided a novel arrangement of container and contents which may be conveniently and economically manufactured and as-' sembled. The particular substance with which the container is filled is not important. Any compound which, when in the solid state, is sufilciently rigid to function in the manner described, may be used. Many other modifications will occur to those skilled in the art. I intend this patent to cover all such modifications as fall within the scope of the appended claims.
What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is:-
1. In combination, a container, a cover therefor, contents positively secured within said container, means removably secured to said contents and said cover for holding the latter in position on said container and adapted to serve as a support for said container, and a second cover superposed on said first mentioned cover.
