Scoo ph No 238,075. Patented Feb. 22,1881.
EIER rummaumsn, WASHINGTON, u.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HENRY L. ANDERSON, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS. V
SCOOP.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 238,075, dated February 22, 1881.
Application filed November 10, 1880. (ModeL) To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, HENRY L. ANDERSON, of Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Scoops; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, which forms part of this specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in scoops; and it consists in making the scoop from a single piece of sheet metal, and making the scoop rectangular its entire length and rectangular at one end, so that the scoop containing the article which is to be wrapped up can be laid upon a paper, and the paper folded over the scoop so as to close the package at all points except the upper end, and then the scoop drawn out leaving the article in the paper, as will be more fully described hereinafter.
The object of my invention is to so construct the scoop that after it has been filled with any article which is to be wrapped up in paper it will not be necessary to pour the article out of the scoop and then wrap it up, and thus have the article spilling out at the ends of the paper; but the scoop and the article are folded up together in the paper, and thus the handling of the article two or more times is avoided.
The accompanying drawing represents a perspective of my invention.
A represents the scoop, which is formed from a single piece of sheet metal, and which is made rectangular its entire length and square or rectangular at the end at which the article to be tied up is poured out. The two ends G of the metal extend forward beyond that part of the metal which forms the bottom of the scoop, and this metal is turned at right angles, and has its lower edge soldered or otherwise fastened to the edge of the bottom part. These two parts which are thus turned at right angles may either be made long enough to extend entirely across the end of the scoop, so
as to close it up entirely, or they may be made narrow, as here shown, and be united together by means of the piece D, which forms the handle. This piece D may either be made from an entirely separate and distinct strip of metal or one-half of the handle may be stamped from the same piece of sheet metal from which the scoop is formed, and then have their inner ends secured together in any suitable manner.
After this scoop has been filled with any article which is to be done up in paper, it is not necessary that the article should be poured out upon the paper, but the scoop containing the article is laid down upon the paper, and then the paper is formed into a package directly over the scoop, and the end of the paper closed up over the rectangular end of the scoop. After the package has been formed complete, except at the handle end of the scoop, the package is turned up on end, the scoop drawn out, leaving the article in the paper, and then the package is completed.
The object of myinvention is to preventthe article from being handled two or more times, as is generally necessary in doing it up into a package, and to prevent the spilling of the article over the edges of the paper while the package is being formed.
Having thus described my invention, I claim 1. A scoop made rectangular the greater portion of its length and shaped squarely at one end, so that the scoop containing the article can be inclosed in the paper, and then the scoop withdrawn after the package has been partially formed, substantially as described.
2. A scoop made from a single sheet or piece of sheet metal of a rectangular form, and having one end closed, or partially closed, by having the ends of the sides turned inward toward each other, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoingI have hereunto set my hand.
HENRY L. ANDERSON.
