DEVICE FOR REMOVING MEATS AND THE LIKE FROM CONTAINERS Filed March 9, 1942 INVEN TOR.
ATTD R N EYE Patented Nov. 16, 1943 DEVICE FOR REMOVING MEATS AND THE LIKE FROM CONTAINERS Philip s. Bailey, 'roms River, N. J.
Application March 9, 1942, Serial No. 433,990
1 Claim. (Cl. 220-93) My invention relates to containers such as tin cans constituting packages for canned meats and the like, and has among its objects and advantages the provision of an improved content removal device.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of a conventional can illustrating my invention incorporated therein;
Figure 2 is a similar view illustrating the top end of the can removed preparatory to removing the contents thereof; and
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the invention.
In the embodiment selected for i1lustration,'I make use of a conventional can i partly severed or scored along lines i2 so that the top section I4 of the can may be detached from the body portion I6 through the medium'of the usual key which tears out the ribbon i8. The can is illustrated as being rectangular in cross section in conformity with cans of the type employed for corned beef and the like. Upon detachment of the top section I4, the contents project some distance above the upper edge of the section I6, as at in Figure 2. While the can is illustrated in rectangular contour, the invention is equally Well adapted to containers of diiIerent contours.
In Figure 3, I make use of a plate or false bottom 22 of such area as to it snugly inside the can to rest on the can bottom 2l. Two upstanding straps 26 are attached to the false bottom 22 and are pivotaily connected at 28 with the legs l0 of a bail 32. Both legs 30 are preferably located on the inner sides'of their respective straps 26 so that the latter-may lie snugly against two sides 0i' the can.
The legs 30 are of such length as to bring the bight u of the bail 32 into snug engagement With one side wall of the can. and the bail is arranged at right angles to the straps 26 when the device is placed in the can. Such right angular relationship is maintained by the reason oi ears 26 struck from the straps 26 to engage the legs SII when the bail is pivoted downwardly in one direction. In operation, the device oi' Figure 3 is placed in the can before it is filled. The two legs 26 are of such height as to bring the upper side edge of the bail 32 in Figure 1 in close relationship with the can top 38. 'I'hus the device of Figure 3 is. incorporated in the can as a part thereof.
The straps 26 project above the removable ribbon area I8 of the can so as to expose the bail 32 when the top section I4 is removed, as illustrated in Figure 2. Thus removal of the top section lends accessibility to the bail 32, which may be pivoted to an upright position and employed as a bail for lifting the false bottom 22 to remove the contents from the can. Accordingly, canned meats, which are diiiicult to remove because of suction and gelatlnous Juices, may be easily removed from the can in an unbroken mass.
Without further elaboration, the foregoing will so fully illustrate my invention, that others may, by applying current knowledge, readily adapt ythe same for use under various conditions of service.
I claim:
The improvement in a device for removing prepared meats and commodities of similar nature in a solid mass from containers, a platform having an upper and lower surface and resting on the bottom of a container, a pair of strapsintegral with the platform at the mid portion of two opposite edges thereof and extending upwardly a distance substantially equal to the height of the containena bail pivotally attached to the upper ends of the straps, ears struck from corresponding edges of the straps adjacent to and below the pivots, said ears contacting said bail when the bail is positioned at right angles to the straps, the outer edges of the bail when in said last named right angular position lying in the projected perimeter of that portion of the platform directly therebeneath, whereby the bail will not interfere with the nlling of the container when positioned therein.
PHILIP S. BAILEY.
