UNITED STATES PATENT ()FFICE.
JOHN DORSGH, OF CANANDAIGUA, NEW YORK.
ASH-SI FT'ER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 231,659, dated. August 31, 1880.
Application filed February 9, 1880.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, J OHN Donscn, of Canandaigua, in the county of Ontario and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ash-Sifters and I do hereby declare that the followingis a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being bad to the accompanying drawin gs, which form a part of this specification.
Myinvention relates to improvements in ash- Sifters.
Heretofore the screens of ash-sitters have been attached to the lower edges of the receptacle for the ashes with nails or tacks, and the end and side pieces of the receptacle have been secnredtogether only at their respective corners. Such forms of sifters have proven defective, they being too frail to withstand the required strain upon them when shaking the ashes, as the cornerjoints cannot be made sufficiently rigid to prevent the sides and ends from becoming racked and twisted apart from each other, and the shaking movement required in sifting the ashes soon twists and tears the sieve or screen from the bottom.
The object of my improvements is to produce a cheap, strong, and durable sifter, which will overcome these defects.
I prevent the sides and ends from being racked and twisted out of the proper relative position, and the corner joints from being torn apart, by'securing a stationary inflexible bottom rigidly to the lower edges of the receptacle, which serves as a brace to said sides and end pieces, and relieves them of the severe strain to which they are otherwise subjeeted.
The ends and sides are respectively formed in two pieces, between which the screen is secured and by which it is more permanently held.
My invention is further explained by reference to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 represents aperspective view. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the ferrule or socket by which the handle is attached to the sifter. Fig. 4 is a front View of the ferrule or socket.
Like parts are represented by the same reference-letters throughout the several views.
The sides A A and end B of the receptacle are, respectively, constructed in two pieces, 0 d, between which pieces the screen B is secured.
In constructing the sifter the pieces 0 c c c are first secured together at their ends, as shown, with screws or nails, their lower edges being on the same plane. The sieve is then attached to the bottom, when the pieces (1 d d are nailed to pieces 0 c c 0 against the sieve, thus more permanently securing the sieve to the receptacle. When the pieces d are attached the bottom 0 is nailed to the lower edges of the pieces cl, whereby the receptacle is greatly strengthened, and the screen B is shielded from injurious contact, and the corners of the receptacle are relieved from all twisting strains. The bottom 0 also catches the ashes as it escapes through the screen, and the operator is enabled to control and deposit them where desirous, and the liability of their being blown and scattered is obviated.
Having thus described my invention, I make no claim to the socket or ferrule D, as I am aware that it is not new.
1 am also aware that a combined screen and shovel having a loose detachable bottom has previously been made, as shown by Patent No. 77,333, granted to A. Thayer, and insomuch as the same anticipates my invention I make no claim thereto.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- The ash-sitter herein described, having its sides A A and end B respectively constructed in two pieces, 0 and d, between which the sieve B is secured, and rigidly fixed bottom 0, attached to the lower edges of the pieces at d d, adapted to strengthen the receptacle and more rigidly retain the sieve and shield it from contact, substantially as setforth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signaturein presence of two witnesses.
JOHN DORSOH.
