BOTTLE-C RATE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 442,535, dated December, 9, 1890.
Application tiled August 30,1890. Serial No. 363,469. (No model.)
To all whom, z5 may concern.-
Be itknown that I, LUTHER MORRISON NE- MoN, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Dunbar, in the county of Fayette and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Orates, of which the following` is a specification, reference being had therein to thc accompanying drawings.
This invention pertains to certain new and useful improvements in crates, having for its object the provision of a new and improved crate for transporting bottles, the same being simple, cheap, and durable.
The invention comprises two corresponding circular end pieces or wheels connected together near their axial centers, and a exible inclosing band or frame placed between said wheels for holding the bottles in place, substantially as hereinafter fully set forth, and particularly pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a front elevation of my improved crate with the iiexible inclosing-band removed. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal sectional View thereof, showing said band in place.
Referring to the drawings, A A designate two circular end heads or wheels,which may be centrally connected together by a square axle 4ends 0f the bottles being adjacent to the rim awhile the necks thereof are disposed against the cross bars or straps a2, as shown. In this manner several bottles are placed on each wheel, and upon these bottles is placed a second series, and so on, according to thc space since the outer ends of the bottles are held away from the edges of the wheels the crate can be rolled thereon in transporting the same.
Vhen the crate is emptied or when being packed, it is placed on end similar to a barrel, and the bottles are then ou their sides ready to be removed.
It will be seen that a crate thus constructed is very simple, cheap, and durable, aud that bottles packed therein are securely held in place for transportation, and there being no jarring in moving the crate the bottles are not liable to be readily broken or deranged, and a continuous free circulation of air is permit ted throughout the cratev around all bottles.
The herein-described improved crate, consisting of two circular end heads or Wheels having each a central hub and a reduced portion forming an outer rim, a cent-ral axle connectin g said end heads or wheels, spaced-apart cross-bars secured to said cent-ral hubs, and a iiexible band composed of spaced-apart bars and connecting-wires encircling said outer rim and inclosin g the bottles in the crate, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
LUTHER MORRISON NEMON.
