Description

k J.-T. FOGG.
' Egg Carrier.
No. 202,253. 7 Patented April 9, 18.78
ATTORNEYS UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JASON T. FOGG, OF GARLAND, MAINE, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF HIS RIGHT TO LYNDON OAK & 00., OF SAME PLACE.
|MPROVEMENT IN EGG-CARRIERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 202,253, dated April 9, 1878; application filed June 1, 1877.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JASON T. FOGG, of Garland, in the county of Penobscot, and in the State of Maine, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Egg-Carriers; and do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making apart of this specification.
My invention relates to egg-carriers; and it consists in the construction and arrangement of the trays for holding the eggs, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
Inorder to enable others skilledin the art to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe its construction and operation, referring to the annexed drawing, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of my tray for egg-carriers. Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 show the construction of the different parts of the tray.
Each tray is composed of four kinds of pieces, A B O D, of pasteboard, thin wood, or other similar suitable material. The pieces A A and B B are of the same size, and the pieces A have near each end a central vertical slot, a, and between these two slots is a series of slots, a, of the same size as the slots a, but cut alternately a trifle above and below the center, as shown.
The pieces B have a series of vertical central slots, 12, which are made short to fit over tenons 01, formed on the ends of the narrow pieces 0 D. These pieces '0 and'D are of the same size, and formed at the ends with tenons alternately with the slots 0 up and down, and
then said slots 0 are pressed into the slots at, thus interlocking and holding the several pieces firmly in place. then placed on the tenons d of the pieces 0 D,
and strips h are glued on the sides of the tenons, as shown, to keep said pieces B in place, thus completing the tray.
The trays thus constructed are to be placed in a suitable box, with elastic partitions between as well as over and under them.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A tray for egg-carriers composed of the pieces A, having slots at to, pieces B, having slots b, pieces 0, having slots 0 and tenons d, and the pieces D, having tenons d and the strips h, all constructed substantially as and for the purposes herein set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 18th day of April, 1877.
