EGG-CARRIER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 293,606, dated February 12, 1884.
' Application filed November 17, 1883. (N0 model.)
.ments in Egg-Carriers, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
Our invention relates to improvements in egg holders or carriers; and it consists in combining with a pailor likejreceptacle a series of peculiarly-constructed flanged disks having apertures to admit and holdthe eggs, and central independent supports, and, further, in a peculiar cover for the pail, both features being more fully hereinafter described.
In the drawings accompanying thisspecification, Figure l is an elevation of the pail. Fig. 2 is a central cross-section. Fig. 3 is a plan of one of the trays. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of the cover.
The letter A represents each one of a series of trays arranged, one above another, in a pail, B, preferably of wood, and of ordinary construction. The trays are preferably formed from paper of suitable thickness, but may be made from paper-pulp, and each one is pro vided with a number of apertures, 0, designed to hold the eggs. The edge of each hole is serrated and the points turned slightly inward, Fig. 2, in order to hold the eggs D more securely. The periphery of the top D of each of the trays A is of polygonal form, so that air may circulate freely around and between the trays. Each disk A is provided -with a downward]y-projecting flange, E, the
lower edge of which, when the trays are in position, rests upon the top of the next tray of the series. We prefer to form this flange by slitting the paper radially at proper points, turning down the tongues thus formed, and securing them by pasting a strip of paper around them. In this way they may be formed so as to taper inwardly, and thus conform to the shape of the pail. Where the trays are formed from paper-pulp the flanges might be formed in the mold, particularly if they were adapted to fit a straight-sided pail. To the bottom of each tray is secured, by a tack or rivet, a support, 6, of a length equal to that of the flange E, which rests upon the center of the tray directly below, which in turn is likewise supported. We prefer to employ roundheaded rivets or tacks to secure these supports in the trays, and to form a concave recess in the bottom of each support, into which the head of the tack on the next tray fits. Each tray is provided with a handle, f. The part A is provided with a lid or cover, G, constructed, preferably, of paper, two thicknesses of such material being used. The upper thickness, is of a diameter equal to the,
diameter of the outer circumference of the pail. The lower sheet, K, is split radially, and the tongues I) turned downward to form a flange within the pail. The tongues need not be secured, Fig. 4, or a binding-strip of paper may be pasted around them. The handle H of the cover is, formed from a strip of paper or equivalent material, the ends of which are inserted through an opening in the sheet K, and pasted, as shown at L, to the bottom of such sheet. A loop is thus formed above the cover, which serves as a handle.
' \Ve prefer to secure the ends of the handle by means of a strip, M, pasted firmly to them and to the cover.
The cover may, if desired, be made of paper-pulp.
Having described our invention, we claim 1. The combination, with a pail or like receptacle, of aseries of separate trays, each consisting of a single disk having egg-holding apertures, a depending flange, and a central support secured to the disk, the supports and flanges being of such height that each disk supports a series of eggs independently of the other disks.
2. In combination with a vessel or receptacle,a cover composed of a double thickness of material, the inner thickness being split and formed into a flange, and having a paper handle secured to it, all substantially as de-
