BU RlAL-CASKET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 407,792, dated July 30, 1889.
Application filed April 8, 1889- Serial No. 306,324! (No model.) I
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JOHN DANFORD RIPsoN, manufacturer, of the village of Suspension Bridge, in the county of Niagara, in the State 5 of New York, one of the United States of America, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Burial- Caskets, of which the following is a specification.
The object of the invention is to provide the casket with a sliding head-panel in connection with the sliding glass in such a manner that the panels shall be flush with each other and the outside of the plate, of which the panels form part, shall present a smooth 1 5 and even surface; and it consists, essentially, in forming the top of the plate of sheet metal or other thin material, and recessing the plate below its top, so that grooves may be formed in it to receive the'sliding glass and panel,
substantially as hereinafter more particularly explained.
Figure 1 is a perspective outside view of my improved casket-top. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the same, showing the sliding glass and panel closed. Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the sliding panel open.
Fig. 4c is an enlarged view in part of Fig. 2, showing engagement of catch.
In the drawings, A represents what is com- 0 monly called the top of the casket; B, the plate; O, the head-panel, and D the foot-panel.
It will be noticed in Fig. 1 that the entire outside face of the plate and the panels present an even smooth surface, although the 3 5 head-panel O is arranged so that it may slide open. This effect is produced by cutting out or recessing the plate B below the panels, which are made of sheet metal or some other thin material, the panel C being fitted into a c groove a made in the plate B, in such a manner that the said panel may be caused to slide back, as indicated in Fig. 3, although when closed, as shown in Figs. land 2, it pre sents the appearance of being flush with the panel D. A groove Z) is also made in the plate B to receive the glass E, which is carried in the said groove at a point sufficiently far from the bottom of the head-panel O to permit a small knob F to protrude above its surface, by which knob the glass may be readily adjusted. A similar knob G protrudes above the surface of the head-panel O, by which it may be readily adjusted.
WVith the view of locking the sliding glass and panel I provide a simple catch consisting 5 5 of a spring H, fixed at one end to the bottom of the foot-panelD, its other end being curved downwardly to a point below the bottom of the glass E. A pin I, connected to this end of the spring 11, projects through the top of the plate B, and has a knob J formed on its upper end. This pin forms a stop to lock the head-panel O and glass E when they are closed, as indicated in Figs. 1 and 2. By seizing the end of the knob J, the pin I and its spring H may be readily raised clear of the panel C, when the said panel may be caused to slide back, as indicated in Fig. 3, thus holding the pin and its spring up out of the way of the glass E, which may then be caused to slide open when desired.
Although I prefer the spring-catch described, it will be understood that any kind of catch by which the sliding panel and glass may be locked will be suitable.
\Vhat I claim as my invention is- I A casket having a sliding head-panel and a sliding glass, in different horizontal planes, in combination with a catch having a substantially vertical portion adapted to engage the end of both said panel and glass for holding the two closed, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
JOHN D. RIPSON.
