0. E. BARTRAM. KNOGKDOWN FRUIT BARREL.
No. 281,230. Patented July 17, 1883.
UNITED STATES PATENT GEFICE,
CHARLES E. BARTRAM, OF FRED ONIA, NEV YORK.
KNOCKDAOWN FRUIT-BARREL.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 281,230, dated July 1'7, 1883.
Application filed April 2, 1883. (N0 model.)
To mZZ whom it may concern Be it known that 1, CHARLES E. BARTR-AM, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Fredonia, inthe county of Chautauqua and State'of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Knockdown Return FruitBarrels, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to barrels to be re turned to the shipper after each shipment of fruit, &c., and it is constructed so as to leave a space between the staves and at both ends for ventilation, and for folding it up flat when not-in use; and the invention consists in its particular construction, as fully hereinafter claimed.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective of my barrel complete and in shape for use; Fig. 2, the barrel collapsed and doubled flat;
- Fig. 3, detail in perspective of the fastening to the heads, bottom view; and Fig. 4, an enlarged detail of the hoops ends held together by the links. I
a a a designate the staves, made fiat, rectangular, and without bulge, having the usual croze near the ends for the reception of the two head-pieces b b b, which, when in, leave an open space, 0, between the two for the insertion of the fastening and expanding device A, one at each end of the barrel. This is made of a fiat piece of wood, d, with a downwardly-projecting piece, 8, fastened to the under side thereof, one side rounded or beveled off, and the other side, 6, hollowed out, as shown in Fig. 3. This is set into the space a in the barrel-head by first catching the part c 1 under the head and pressing down on the flatpart (Z. The rounded side allows the whole to hinges to open and close the barrel.
f f f are the metal bands made into hoops by uniting their ends to metal links or loops 9 9, two to each hoop and set exactly opposite to each other, just halving the barrel, so that when collapsed the barrel folds together or doubles on itself, as shown in Fig. 2, lying down perfectly fiat and held at the ends by the links which unite the hoops and act as The hoops or metal strips areeach nailed to the ,staves, one at each end of the barrel, as shown,
and one in the middle.
This is theentire construe-ti on, which is very simple, strong, durable, and cheap. It is knocked down into a small flat space for return, as shown in Fig. 2. The advantages of this need not be enumerated, as they are too well known.
I claim- The knockdown return shipping -barrel, consisting of the staves a a a, the attached metal bands or hoops f f f, having the unitinglinks 9 g opposite each other, and the headpieces I) b, and the head-fastening devices A d e e, and means for holding the head-fastening devices against the head pieces, all constructed, combined, and arranged substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature,in presence of two witnesses, this 17th day of March, 1883.
CHARLES E. BARTRAM. W'itnesses:
J. It. DRAKE,
GEo. A. BURNETT.
