Description

Patented Jan. 30, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2 Claims.
For the sake of illustration, it might be stated that barrels designed for containing rosin, are constructed from green wood, and during warm weather the staves shrink causing the meeting edges thereof to separate, resulting in the rosin leaking from the barrel.
It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide a barrel constructed of staves having overlapping edges, which compensate for the expansion and contraction of the staves, maintaining a tight connection between the staves at all times and insuring against loss of material by leakage.
With the foregoing and other objects in View, which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, may be made within the scope of what is claimed, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Referring to the drawing:
Figure 1 is a sectional View through adjacent staves of a barrel, illustrating the overlapped edges of the staves.
Figure 2 is a sectional view through adjacent staves, illustrating the connecting edges between the staves, partially separated.
Figure 3 is a sectional view through adjacent staves, illustrating a modified form of the invention.
Figure 4 is a sectional view through staves constructed in accordance with Figure 3, the adjacent edges being slightly spaced apart due to the contraction of the staves.
Referring to the drawing in detail, the reference character 5 designates staves of a barrel, and as shown these staves are identical in construction, so that the barrel may be assembled by persons unfamiliar with mechanics.
As clearly shown by Figure 1 of the drawing, one end of the stave is formed with a rabbet 6 deiining a longitudinal rib '7 adapted to t into the rabbeted section of the adjacent stave, in the construction of a barrel.
The rabbet 6 is constructed in such a way as to provide an inclined wall 8 to accommodate the inclined surface 9 of the rib 10 of the cooperating edge of the adjacent stave. The rib 10 is the result of the forming of the rabbet 11 in one edge of the stave, near the inner surface of the stave, accommodating the rib '7 of the stave associated therewith. The inner edge of the rib 10 is tapered providing a knife-like edge 12 which is designed to embed itself in the wall of the rabbet 6 of the adjacent section, when the staves or sections, are forced into close engagement with each other, in the construction of a barrel.
A groove 13 is formed in one wall'of the rabbeted section 11 of each stave, and provides a pocket for a suitable cement material, designed to cement the adjacent edges of the staves together should it be desired to use the barrel for turpentine, or similar liquids.
In the form of the invention as shown by Figure 3 of the drawing, the staves are indicated by the reference character 15, and each stave is provided with a rabbeted section 16 formed in the outer surface thereof, and a rabbeted section 17 formed along the opposite edge of the stave, and disposed within the inner surface of the stave.
These rabbeted sections 16 and 17 are contructed in such a way that they provide inclined surfaces 18, to the end that when staves are brought together in the formation of a barrel, the inclined surfaces will meet in securing the staves together, in a manneras shown by Figure 3.
Should the staves contract, due to the seasoning thereof, it will be seen that these inclined surfaces of adjacent staves will ride over each other, providing a complete seal at all times.
Having thus described the invention what is claimed is:
I claimt 1. A container embodying staves, each stave having one of its outer longitudinal edges cut away defining an inner rib, the opposite edge of the stave having the inner longitudinal edge thereof cut away dening an outer rib, the inner edges of the ribs being inclined, and the inclined surfaces of adjacent staves closely engaging each other providing a fluid tight connection between the staves of the container.
2. A container embodying staves, ribs extending longitudinally of each stave, said ribs being arranged at the side edges of the staves, the inner surfaces of the ribs being inclined, and the inclined edges of adjacent ribs of the staves contacting, providing a fluid tight connection between the staves.
