TABLE-CASTER OR OTHER ARTICLE OF TABLE-SERVICE.
SPECIFICATION forming partof Letters Patent NO. 296,287, dated April 1, 1884-.
- Application filed February 18, 1884. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, GURDON W. HULL and CHAS. B. YALE, of Wallingford, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut,
5 have invented a new Improvement in Table- Casters and other Articles of Table-Service; and we do hereby declare the following,when taken in connection with accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked there- IO on, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent,in-
Figure 1, a front view of a caster-handle; Fig. 2, a vertical section, showing .the introduction of the letter; Fig. 3, the same, showing the letter secured; Fig. 4, the letter detached; Fig. 5, the invention as applied to a pitcher; Figs. 6 and 7, modifications.
This invention relates to an improvement in casters, spoon-holders, and various articles of table-service made from metal. Purchasers of these articles often desire that they be marked with some initial, monogram, emblem, or other distinctive character. Particularlyis this the case with hotels, restaurants,
societies, 8m.
The object of our invention is to construct metal articles of tableservicc so that such initials, monograms,or whatever it may be,
0 may be attached according to the desire of the purchaser, and in such construction of articles, as more fully hereinafter described, our invention consists.
We first represent the invention as applied 5 to the handle of a caster. These handlesare usually made open, and across the opening from side to side parallel bars a b are formed in the process of manufacture. Upon the corresponding faces of-these bars we form a 40 longitudinal groove, (2. These bars, like the article in which they are applied, are made from metal of a ductile character. The letter, monogram, or whatever it maybe, is prepared corresponding to the distance between 5 these bars-say the letter H, as seen in Fig.
4. The thickness of this letter should correspond substantially to the groove in the bars. It is set, say, into the upper groove, as seen in Fig. 2, one side of the lower groove being turned away sufficiently to permit the lower end to enter. Then, when entered, the sides of the groove are closed upon the letter, as seen in Fig. 3, so as to hold it firmly and as seen in Fig. 1.
Letters may be kept in stock by the dealer, so that he may readily apply the letter desired by the customer; or monograms, emblems, &c., may be prepared with special reference to the article and wishes of the customer, and introduced by the manufacturer, his stock being held blank subject to the introduction of such monograms or letters as orders'may come to him. The bars by which the letter is secured form an ornamental part of the handle, equally ornamental whether the letter or monogram be applied or omit ted, so that its omission does not detract from the article. These grooved bars may be applied to other articles of tahle-service-say a pitcher, as seen in Fig. 5the bars a b being placed upon the side of the pitcher and made ornamental, the surface between the bars being ornamented, as shown, so that whether the letter or monogram be applied or not,the bars form a tasteful ornament on the side of the pitcher. The grooves in any case are formed as before described, and so that the letter, monogram, or whatever it may be, may
be introduced at pleasure and firmly secured. Owing to the ductility of the metal these lettors or monograms may be changed at any time and others substituted therefor, whereas if marks are engraved or otherwise made substantially an integral part of the article, then such marks being permanent detract from the articlewhen ownership of thearticleis changed Instead of introducing the letter, as described, first into one groove, then the other, it may be introduced from one side and slide into the grooves into its proper position and 0 hold by friction; or, instead of fixing the letter or monogram by means of such grooves, the article to which it is to be attached may .have screw-holes tapped into it, as seen in Fig. 6, and the letter have a corresponding hole 5 through it, as seen at c, Fig. 4, and then a screw introduced through it. The letters being all drilled to a standard,any letter may be applied as occasion may require.
Instead of making the letter a firm fixed Ioo part of the article, it may be hung thereon, as 1. Metal articles of table and like service, 15 seen in Fig. .7, the letters being providedwith provided with means, substantially such as hooks f, and the bar or Whatever it may be described, for removably and interchangeably constructed with a groove, h, corresponding attaching initials, monograms, &c., substan- 5 to said hook, so that the hook engaged in this tially as specified.
groove will retain the letter in that position. 2. Metal articles of table and like service, 20
It will be evident that in case of the grooves constructed with the grooved parallel bars a they may be made horizontal, perpendicular, b and fitted to receive letters, mcnograms,
or inclined. &c., substantially as specified.
10 These illustrations are sufficient to enable GURDON XV. HULL. those skilled in the art to apply my invention CHARLES B. YALE. to various articles of table, toilet, and other WVitnesses: service. HENRY MARTIN,
We claim- W. I. LIGHTFOOT.
