ASH RECEIVER Filed July 12, 1937 Patented May 21, 1940 ASH RECEIVER Eric S. Carlsoiil Detroit, Mich., assignor to Ternstedt Manufacturing Company, Detroit, Mich., a corporation of Michigan Application July 12, 1937, Serial No. 153,185
2 Claims.
This invention relates to ash receivers and has particular reference to the type of ash receiver which is conveniently located in an automobile so as to be accessible to the passengers in the rear seat.
The essential parts of the invention comprise a permanently mounted'container, the container having pivotally mounted at its bottom edge a door to which there is removably attached an ash receptacle having a snufier secured at its upper outer edge. A spring is mounted between the door and receptacle to eliminate rattle. The door is provided with a foot having a toe adapted to engage a projection on the side of the container to limit the outward movement of the door. An over center spring holds the door and removable ash receptable in either of its two extreme positions.
On the drawing- Figure 1 is a view of a part of the interior of an automotive vehicle showing the application of the invention.
Figure 2 is a front elevational view of the receptacle with parts broken away and shown in section better to illustrate the construction.
Figure 3 is a section on the line 33 of Figure 2.
Figure 4 is a sectional view similar to Figure 3 but showing the door opened and ash receptacle removed, the normal position of the ash receptacle being shown in dotted outline.
Figure 5 is a section on the line 5-5 of Figure 3.
Referring to the drawing, the numeral 2 indicates an automotive vehicle as a whole. The vehicle has the rear window 4, the rear door 6 and front door 8. The doors have the usual raisable and lowerable windows I0. The rear seat I2 has the back 14 and the arm rest I6 while the front seat has the back cushion I8 and the seat back 20 in which the ash tray 22 of the invention is mounted.
The ash tray 22 has the principal parts comprising the container 24, the receptacle 26, and the door 28. The container 24 is preferably made of a single sheet of metal and has at its edges short flanges 30 which are welded to the top and back of the container. The bottom 32 is substantially flat while the rear 34 is inclined as shown and meets the inclined top 36. The front of the container 24 is open to receive the door 28 and around the open part of the con tainer there is secured by welding the finishing outside and may be suitably plated to give it a finished outer appearance.
At the upper edge of the finishing piece 38 the tongue 40 is downwardly pressed to form a striker for the upper edge of the door 28.
The door has the inturned edges 42 which extend entirely around the door and atthe sides the edges 42 have flanges 44 which are inwardly bent and flared at the top as shown at 46. The inwardly bent flanges 44 are spaced from the main part of the door so that with the door they form channels.
At its lowermost corners the door is provided with openings in which there are received the rivets 48 on which the door is pivoted. The rivets extend through the finishing piece 38 and are turned over thereon rigidly to hold them in place. The rivets 48 do not pass through the container 24 but openings 49 are provided at the container side where the rivets pass through so go that the door is hinged to the finishing piece 38 only.
Extending beyond the pivotal points 48 the door is provided with an; inwardly extending foot 50 the end of which is provided with a toe 52 which is adapted to engage with a projection 54 pressed inwardly from the edge of the strip 38. The purpose of the foot 50, toe 52, and projection 54 is to limit the outward movement of the door as shown in Figure 4. A coil spring 56 has one end bent over and positioned in an opening 58 in the wall of the container 24 and the other end bent and extending through an opening 60 in the foot 50. In the position of the spring shown in Figure 3 the tendency of the ends to expand will hold the door 28 in closed position while in Figure 4, the spring having been moved over center, the same tendency will hold the door in open position.
The ash receptacle 26 is suitably shaped as shown in Figure 3 to be received in the container 24 and is provided with side flanges 62 which project away from the receptacle, the side flanges being adapted to be received in thechannels formed by the lateral flanges 44 on the door 28. 5 The ash receptacle 26 is made of metal, preferably of two pieces, one piece being designated at 64 and comprises the outermost face of the ash receptacle to which the snuffer 66 is secured. The second piece comprises the rest of the receptacle. As is best shown in Figure 5, the lateral flanges 62 on the receptacle are adapted to be received in the channels formed by the flanges 44 so that by moving the ash receptacle 26 from the full line position in Figure 4 to the dotted line position, the receptacle can be inserted in the flanges of the door and may be swung in and out oi. the container with the door. To remove the receptacle it is withdrawn from the dotted line pdsition in Figure 4 to the full line position.
The snuiier 66 has the foot 10 formed thereon which has an opening 12 formed therein. A rivet 14 rigidly secures thebottom of the foot III to the receptacle 26 while a tongue 16 pressed be secured to the receptacle 26 instead of the door 28. When the ash receptacle 26 is in place on the door as shown in Figure 3 the spring 88 will be under compression and will press tightly against the receptacle firmly to hold it in place and to prevent rattle.
The door is preferably provided with the ribs 86 and 88 to give it an outer decorative appearance. If desired, they may b chromium plated to distinguish them from the rest of the receptacle, and a decorative strip 98 may be placed over the handle 84 to conceal the head of the rivet 82 and to form a decorative strip in continuation of the rib 88.
The operation of the device is as follows: as-
suming the parts to be in the position shown in Figure 3 and a passenger desires to deposit ashes in the receptacle 26 he will pull on the knob 84 to pull the door outward which will carry along therewith and expose the ash receptacle 26, to
enable the passenger to deposit ashes therein. At
to the position shown in Figure 4 when the ash receptacle 26 may be removed by withdrawing it from the dotted line position to the full line position.
I claim:
1. In an ash receiver for an automotive vehicle, a container adapted to be permanently mounted in the vehicle, said container being open at its rear side, a door hinged to the container at its bottom edge, an ash receptacle removably mounted on the door and adapted to be withdrawn from the door when the door is open, a handle on the outside of the door, a spring on the inside of the door, and common means' for securing said handle and said spring to the door, said spring pressing against the ash receptacle to hold the receptacle firmly in place and prevent rattle. 2. In an ash receiver foran automotive vehicle, a container adapted to be permanently mounted in the vehicle, said container being open at one rear side, a door hinged to the container 8( at its bottom edge, a foot on the door extending inwardly of the container substantially at right angles to the door, a toe on the foot, a projection at the edge oi. the container adapted to be engaged by the toe when the door is opened 8!
