Description
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WRIGHT DURYEA, OF NEV YORK, N. Y.
DEVICE FOR JOINING BOXES.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 29,957, dated September 11, 1860.
To all whom it may concer/n:
Be it known that I, VRIGHT DURYEA, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Method of Joining Boxes; and I do hereby declare' that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, in which- Figure l shows four sides of a box joined together in the improved manner. Fig. 2 shows a horizontal section of two sides of a box joined. Fig. 3 is an enlarged perspective view of the angular strip used in uniting the ends of the box.
Similar letters of reference indicate corre spending parts in the three figures.
This invention and improvement in the construction of boxes relates to the joining of the ends in a more perfect, neat and efficient manner than can be done with nails, glue, or by dovetailing the ends and uniting them in this manner.
The invention consists in the employment of angular strips of metal to be inserted endwise into the slots, out into the beveled ends of the box stuff-by sawing or otherwiseas will be hereinafter described so that these strips when inserted will bind and secure the corners tightly together.
To enable those skilled in the art to make and use my invention I will proceed to describe its construction.
The stuff of which the boxes are made is worked out in the usual manner and the corners are beveled as shown in Figs. l and 2. For ordinary boxes the top and bottom may be nailed on in the usual manner so that the sides may be puttogether to form a right-angular box. The beveled or initered ends of the stuff, are then presented to a saw and a deep slot is cut into each running through the entire end of the piece, from edge to edge. The width ofthe slots will depend upon the thickness of the metal strips that are used in joining the ends, but ordinary stifi' sheet metal will be found best adapted to the purpose.
The joining strips one of which is shown in Fig. 3, are made of narrow strips of thin metal, which are bent longitudinally at right angles or nearly so as clearly shown in Figs. l, 2 and 3, at a, a, forming when the strip is inserted into the corners of the box locks for giving additional security to the joint. These strips are cut the required length and when the sides forming the box are put together and held by the hand the strips are inserted into the grooves or slots previously cut into the ends Of the sides and pressed or hammered down. It will be seen that there are no slots made to receive the angular edges a., a, these edges after the strips are started will form their own channel across the grain of the wood and thus hold more tightly. lWhen the sides and ends of the box are put together in this manner with angular strips of metal that are introduced into the wood, the bottom of the box may be nailed on, or for very nice boxes it may be put on with the metal strips, the top may be made to slide or may be nailed on or attached in every suitable manner.
I do not claim broadly, joining boxes by means of an angular strip irrespective of the manner herein described of doing it, but
That I do claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
The joining of the ends of boxes by the insertion of the angular strips of metal into the corners of the box substantially as herein set forth.
VRIGHT DURYEA. lVitnesses L. XV. BENDR, M.. M. LIVINGSTON.
