CANISTER 0 R STORE-=CAN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 252,759, dated January 24, 1882,
Application filed November 25, 1881.
(No model.)
Be it known that I, DAVID F. GOODYEAR,
of Memphis, in the county of Shelby and State of Tennessee, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Canisters or Store- Cans, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention seeks to provide a can, box, or rcceptacle for grocers, druggists, and family use for holding dry com minuted substances, from which small quantities can be conveniently taken without exposing the contents of the can, box, or receptacle to the air, or taking the can or receptacle from the shelf, or removing it from the position in which it is placed.
My invention consists principally of a can, box, or receptacle having a lower or bottom compartmenthavingaremovableslidingscoop,
, the main compartment of the can, box, or receptacle being provided with a hopper-shaped l' ottomopening immediately above the scoop and adapted to be opened and closed by a slide operated from the outside of the can, box, or receptacle.
My invention further consists of a removable pan placed in the loweror bottom compartment below the scoop, adapted to receive and save any substance which may overflow or tall 011' from the scoop. I provide the main compartment with a narrow strip ot'glass, through which the contents of the can, box, or receptacle may be inspected, which also constitutes a feature of my invention.
Reference is to be had to theaccompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures.
Figure 1 is a sectional elevation of my invention, taken on the line 3 y of Fig. 2; and Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation of the same, taken on the line 00 a; of Fig. 1.
A represents the can, box, or receptacle,
which may be made of any size and form, and which is divided into the upper or main compartment, B, and the bottom or lower compartment, 0. The bottom of the main compartment B is hopper-shaped, as shown, and is formed with the central circular opening, a, which is closed by the cut-off" or slide D,which enters from the outside of the can and moves in the ways (I d.
'In-the compartment 0 is placed the semicylindrical sheet-metal sleeve or shelf E,which forms a chamber or seat which is open to the outside of the can or receptacle, and receives and holds the semi-cylindrical scoop F under the opening a of the main or upper compartment, B. This semi-cylindrical shelf or sleeve E is formed with the slot fin its bottom, and under it is placed ,the removable tray G,which is adapted to catch and save any substance which may overflow the scoop or accidentally escape from the main compartment.
The ways d d, in which the cut-oil or slide D moves, are preferably formed by the flanges e e of the sleeve E, which are folded over a suitable distance at the edges, as shown in Fig.2, to form the cleats i 71 between the main part of the flanges and the horizontal portion g of the bottom of the main or upper compartment.
The horizontal portion g of the bottom of the upper compartment is a single piece of sheet metal formed with the central opening, a. The inclined portions h thereof are four triangular pieces of sheet metal soldered together at their edges in pyramidal form and soldered at their lower ends or edges to the horizontal plate 9, and at their upper edges to the walls of the can or receptacle.
The front side of the can or receptacle is slotted or cut away and formed with the frame j, in which the plate of glass J is held, through which the contents of the can may be seen. The top of the can or receptacle is closed by the cover K. The slide or cut-ofi' D is formed with the stop It, which prevents the slide from being drawn entirely out of the can. By this construction of the can it will be seen that small quantities of any substance contained in the main compartment may be conveniently and easily taken out by the scoop without the necessity of reaching into the can and without removing it from the shelf, and that all danger of loss is fully provided against, and that the substance is never exposed to the air after being placed in the receptacle, as it is not necessary to remove the cover as in cans of ordinary construction.
Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. The can A, divided into the compart- 4. The slotted semi-cylindrical sleeve E, secured under the compartment B, in combination with scoop F, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
DAVID FRANKLIN GOODYEAR.
