ASH TRAY Filed May 9, 1952 ,29 1N VENTOR. wwf new@ E' myfm ATTE! RN EYE United States Patent ASH TRAY Charles Webke, Union City, N. J.
Application May 9, 1952, Serial No. 286,912 1 Claim. (Cl. 220--63) This invention relates to ash trays of the type having a removable liner whereby cigarettes and cigar butts, ashes, and the like are deposited in the liner and, to clean the tray, the liner is removed and discarded.
The purpose of this invention is to provide an ash tray having a liner in which means is provided for retaining the liner in position in the tray.
Ash trays have been provided in numerous designs and various attempts have been made to incorporate liners and other devices in ash trays to facilitate cleaning, however, with the conventional type of liner, the liner is not anchored in position and during use the liner shifts from one position to another, resulting in an untidy ash tray. With this thought in mind this invention contemplates an ash tray having a continuous Wall with a recess in the inner surface of the wall in which the material of the liner is disposed whereby the liner is anchored in position in the tray.
The object of this invention is, therefore, to provide means for forming an ash tray whereby means is provided in the body of the tray for securing a liner in position therein.
Another object of the invention is to provide means for securing a liner in position in an ash tray without fastening elements.
A further object of the invention is to provide an improved combination ash tray and liner in which the liner is anchored in the tray, and in which the device is of a simple and economical construction.
With these and other objects and advantages in view the invention embodies an ash tray having a base with upwardly extended side walls and with an inwardly positioned ledge extended continuously around the upper edges of the side walls and a liner comprising a sheet of paper with metal foil on one side positioned in the tray.
Other features and advantages of the invention will appear from the following description taken in connection with the drawing, wherein:
Figure 1 is a plan view of the improved ash tray showing the liner therein.
Figure 2 is a typical cross section through the ash tray also showing the liner therein.
Figure 3 is a plan view similar to that shown in Figure 1 with parts of the liner shown in section and with parts of the tray broken away and shown in section.
Figure 4 is a cross section similar to that shown in Figure 2 showing the liner folded to a position whereby the liner with ashes, cigar and cigarette butts, and the like therein is removable from the tray.
Figure 5 is a plan view of the liner removed from the ash tray and showing two of the liaps of the liner broken away.
Figure 6 is a detail showing a section through the liner showing the structure thereof wherein metal foil is secured to a paper backing.
Referring now to the drawing wherein like reference characters denote corresponding parts the improved ash Patented Jupe 14, 1955 tray and liner of this invention includes'av base 10 having upwardly extended side walls 11 and 12'and' end walls 13 and 14, and a liner having a paper backing 15 with metal foil '16 secured to the upper surface.
The upper edges of the side walls 11 and 12 are provided with inwardly extended iianges 17 and 18, re-
spectively, and the end walls 13 and 14 are provided with similar anges 19 and 20, whereby a continuous recess, as'indicated by the numeral 21, is provided around the inner surfaces of the side and end walls as illustrated in Figure 2, Portions of the liner as indicated by the numeral 22 are extended into these recesses, with portions 23 nested against the under surfaces of the ilanges of the side and end walls and with portions 24 from which tlaps 25 extend positioned against the inner edges of the flanges. The corners of the tray are provided with projecting elements 26, having grooves 27 therein which provide seats for cigarettes, and the like.
To prevent leakage of the liner at the cracks that would exist between the ends of the portions 22 when the liner is folded as in Fig. 4, the ends of the portions 22 of the liner are provided with tabs 28 that overlap corresponding tabs on adjoining portions as shown in Fig. 3, with the liner positioned in an ash tray. Thus as shown in Figure 2 ashes will not penetrate the edges of the portions 22 while the liner is in the tray or the liner is being removed from the tray, as shown in Fig. 4. It will be noted that the portions 23 and 24 are provided with similar tabs 29 and 30, respectively as shown in Fig. 5.
The extensions 26 in which the recesses 27 are positioned are provided with diagonally disposed inner surfaces 31 that coact with aligned edges 32 of the flaps for retaining the liners in position in the ash tray.
With the parts arranged in this manner liners of this type are provided in packages and as a liner is used the aps are folded, as illustrated in Fig. 4 with cigarettes or cigar butts and ashes therein, whereby butts and ashes accumulating in the ash tray are readily removed. As one liner is removed a new liner is positioned in the ash tray so that it is possible to maintain a clean tray continuously. i
With sections of the liner pressed inwardly below the lianges of the side and end walls of the ash tray the liner is substantially anchored in position with the flaps 25 extended from the sides.
It will be understood that modifications within the scope of the appended claim may be made in the design and arrangement of the parts of the ash tray without departing from the spirit of the invention.
What I claim is:
In an ash tray, a horizontally disposed base, a pair of vertically disposed spaced parallel side walls extending upwardly from said base, a pair of vertically disposed spaced parallel end walls extending upwardly from said base, the tops of said side and end walls lying in the same plane, a liner including a paper backing and a metal foil on its upper surface, the upper edges of said side and end walls being provided with inwardly extending anges defining a continuous recess around the inner surfaces of said side and end walls, said liner including a bottom, first portions snugly seated in said recess and extending from said bottom, second portions extending from the edges of said first portions and underlying and having their upper surfaces abutting said flanges, third portions extending upwardly and in contact with the inner edges of said flanges, tabs arranged on the ends of certain of said first, second and third portions, said tabs being arranged in overlapping relation with respect to other adjacent iirst, second and third portions, said liner further including triangular aps extending outwardly beyond said base to provide nger engaging portions, the base of said aps extending substantially the full length of said third portions, the corners of said base extending above said side and end walls and providing an inwardly facing surface diagonally of each corner, the adjacent edges` of said flaps forming a straight line and abutting and engaging the said in- Wardly facing diagonal surfaces of said corners.
