Description
June 7- R. o. NEREQIM 2,083,392
RECEPTACLE Filed July 24, 1935' Inventor: Roy 0 Nereim,
His Attorneg.
Patented June 8, 1937 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE RECEPTACLE New York Application July 24,
3 Claims.
This invention relates to receptacles and more specifically to receptacles for ashes deposited from cigarettes and the like.
A principal object of the invention is to pro- 5 vide a receptacle so constructed and designed that means, are provided across its opening to retain cigarettes and the like placed thereon, which means will at the same time insure that the ashes from the cigarettes and the like will deposit within the receptacle and not outside of it.
Another object of the invention is to provide a receptacle of the character referred to wherein the means provided to receive lighted cigarettes and the like thereon will function to deposit 5 within the container the lighted residue of the cigarette and the like in case the smoker forgets to remove it and the cigarette burns down to a point where it would naturally fall from the supporting means.
Other objects will be apparent as the invention is set forth in the following description thereof.
In the accompanying drawing forming part of this application 5 Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a receptacle embodying the principles of my invention;
Fig. 2 is an exploded view showing the details of construction;
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary view showing a modification of the supporting rods; and
Fig. 4 is also a fragmentary view showing another modification of the supporting means.
Referring to Fig. 1 of the drawing there is shown a receptacle l which is trough-shaped and preferably made of a synthetic resinous compound, for example a phenolic resin compound.
Centrally disposed across the opening of the receptacle land longitudinally thereof is a supporting means 2 in the form of a plurality of thin rods 3 spaced from each other. These rods are preferably of metal and are circular in crosssection. The ends of the rods 3 are supported in grooves t formed in the end sections 5 and 6 of the receptacle 5. The rods 3 are retained in position by means of side members I. These side members are shaped to provide supporting means for maintaining the trough-shaped receptacle in upright position when fastened to the end sections thereof and are also designed to provide removable locking means for holding or retaining the rods 3 in position in the grooves 4. As shown more particularly in Fig. 1 of the drawing, the side members I are flush with the and sections 5 and 6. As will be observed by particular reference to'Fig. 2, the side members 1935, Serial No. 32,871
1 are provided at the bottom thereof with bosses B which extend at right angles from the main body portion of the side members and act as feet to support the trough-shaped receptacle in upright position. A center boss 9 is provided with an opening to permit a fastening element such as a screw to be used whereby the side members may be fastened to the bottom portion of the receptacle. The top portion of the side members I is L-shaped and is provided with openings "I which coincide with the openings 4. The top portion fits over the end section to hold the rods in place when the side members are attached to the end sections of the receptacle.
In Fig. 3 there is shown a modified form of rod which may be used. Instead of the rods being straight they are provided with curved portions I I or otherwise suitably shaped at intervals along the length thereof to more readily and positively retain a cigarette or the like disposed across the rods.
In Fig. 4 the rods are shown as being rectangular in cross-section instead of circular as in Fig. 1.
It will be appreciated that the construction shown and described is simply and easily made, assembled or dismantled. The side members I are preferably made of sheet metal and can thus be easily stamped out in one piece. Because the rods 3 are centrally disposed across the opening of the receptacle and spaced relatively close to each other they form a grate whereon a lighted cigarette may be placed with safety and the assurance that its ashes will fall directly into the receptacle and not outside of it. Moreover, if for any reason the smoker should forget or leave the cigarette on the supporting means 2 and it burns down to a point Where it can no longer be supported on the rods 3 no danger is involved because the lighted stub will fall by gravity directly into the receptacle andnot outside of it where it might damage the object of furniture on which the receptacle rests.
What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is:
l. A hollow receptacle provided with opposite end sections carrying removable metallic members fastened directly to each end section and constituting the sole means for maintaining the receptacle in an upright position, a plurality of relatively thin rods disposed centrally and 1021- gitudinally across the opening of said receptacle and removably retained on said end sections by said metallic members. I
2. An ash tray for cigarettes and the like comprising a hollow trough-shaped receptacle havrette placed across the rods is carried wholly spasms within the confines of the walls of the receptacle.
8. A receptacle comprising a trough-shaped member having vertical'end sections and provided with a plurality of parallel. spaced rods disposed longitudinally across the center thereof, said receptacle being adapted to hold cigarettes and the like placed thereon while permitting ashes to be deposited therein. removable side members, flush with said end sections, comprising locking means for holding the ends of said rods 10 on the end sections of said receptacle, said side members constituting the sole-means for maintaining said receptacle in upright position.
