IMPROVEMENT IN METHODS OF AND APPARATUS FOR DIPPING MATCHES Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 196,315, dated October 23, 1877 application filed June 14, 1877.
county of New Castle and State of Delaware, have invented a new and useful Method of and Apparatus'for Dipping Matches; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and
to the letters of reference marked thereon.
This invention consists, mainly, first, in an improved method of dipping the matches, consisting, essentially, in the following series of consecutive actions: first, placing an excess of the previously-prepared composition upon-a proper surface; second, in sweeping off the excess over the required depth; and, third, dipping thematch-splints into the bed of composition which remains.
It consists, secondly, in the special appara tus employed to carry our methods into effect, consisting, essentially, first, inthe combination of a plane surface with one or more receptacles for holding the match composition and receiving the excess; and,'second, in the combination, with the plane surface, of permanent guide-pieces, as will be fully described hereinafter.
In the drawings, Figure 1 represents a side elevation of the preferred form of our dippingpan; Fig. 2, a modification of the same; vFig. 3, a longitudinal central sectional elevation of Fig. 1, and 4 a plan view of the same.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use our invention, we will now proceed to.
describe fully the methods, and also the construction of the apparatus, and the manner of using the same.
A general'statement of our improved meth- 'ods may be made as follows: The composition may be properly spread to obtain a bed of the required depth for dipping the matches by placing the previously-prepared composition upon any suitable plane surface in an amount exceeding that required, and then sweeping off from said surface said excess portion, in such manner as to leave a bed of proper depth undisturbed, this result being readily accomplished by using guides, as will be hereinafter This series of actions being indefinitely continued, it follows that the bed of composition will always be uniform in depth, and that a smooth, unbroken surface will always be presented to each successive mat of splints, in consequence of which uniform and perfect results are obtained without the exercise of judgment or special care.
The apparatus preferred to carry these methodspractically into effect will nowbe described.
A represents a plate or bed of any suitable material and proper size, which is properly bent to form the central plane surface a, and one or more inclined end surfaces, to a, as shown in Fig. 3. B represents a box or case, in which the plate A is properly secured, in such manner as to form the pocket or receptacle b at one or both ends, and the side strips or pieces D to prevent waste of composition,
as shown. 0 0 represent guide or gage strips,
by means of which the sweep or blade em-' is quickly pushed up the inclined surface a, with a quantity of composition before it. A portion of this composition necessarily fills the vacant spaces resulting from the dipping of the last mat of splints, and the excess is carried by the continued movement of the blade into the opposite pocket. In the return movement 0f the blade: a; quantityof :eompqsiy 5 =ti'0n=isagai1 1dmwn over the suriece to Insure perfect smoothness, the-excess .of w'hich :is finally'earried into'the first packet. iii i f By fiheuse of thisappaliams in the manner 7 described, very rapid action isobtained with uniform andeertain results. r
