NUTMEG GRATER.
(No'ModeL) Patented Sept. 27,1881.
WJTNEEEEE N. PETERS. Pholo-Lilho znwh UNITED K STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JAMES H. LAHA, OF CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS.
NUTM EG-GRATER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 247,503, dated September 27, 1881.
Application filed March 3, 1881.
To all whom it may concern: 1
Be it known that I, JAMES H. LAHA, of Cambridge, in the county of Middlesex and State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improvement in NutmegGrat-ers, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which Figurel is a perspective view ofniy improved nutmeg-grater. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section through the same". Fig. 3 is a transverse section.
This invention consists in a nutmea-grater composed of two cylindrical or tubular portions, one fitting within the other, and each being provided with projections or serrations, the two portions being rotated in opposite directions, for a purpose to be hereinafter ex plained.
In the drawings, A B represent two cylindrical or tubular portions of a nutmeg-grater, the portion B being of slightly less diameter and fitting within the portion A. On the illterior of the portion A is secured a disk, at, the surface of which is roughened or provided with projections, serrations, or indentations, this r disk being placed a short distance from the end (No model.)
ticles of the nutmeg, and across this slot or opening extend bars 0, for preventing the nutmeg from falling out.
Instead of the slot or opening d the portion A may be provided with apertures through which the grated particles of the nutmeg may pass.
The operation of my invention is as follows: The two portions of the grater being separated, a nutmeg is dropped into the portion A at the open end, 6, and the portion B is then placed within the portion A, and the two portions A and B are then rotated in opposite directions. The disks a 1), coming in contact with thenutmeg, grate itin fine particles, which fall through the slot or opening in the portion A.
It will thus be seen that a grater constructed as above described is durable and inexpensive, and not liable to get out of order. Furthermore, it can be easily and cheaply manufactured.
My improved grater is particularly useful for bar-room use, where nutmegs are needed to be finelygrated; but is equally as well adapted for housekeepers use.
What I claim as my invention is as follows:
A nutmeg-grater composed of two tubular portions, A B, one fitting within the other, in combination with the disks a I), having indentations or projections, and the slot or opening 07, all constructed to operate substantially in the manner and for the purpose set forth.
JAMES H. LAHA.
