SAMPLEEXHlBITING BARREL-COVER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 445,524, dated January 2'?, 1891.
Application filed February 6, 1889. Serial No. 298,826. (No model.)
To al?, whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, HENRY J'. HEINZ, of Sharpsbnrg, and ROBERT HOFFMAN, of Pittsburg, both in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Oovers for .larrels` &c., of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
le shall describe our improvement with ro reference to the accompanying drawings, in
whichn Figure l is a perspective view of our improved barrel-cover applied to a barrel. Fig. 2 is a vertical central section of the same.
Fig. 3 is a bottom plan view thereof. Fig. 4 is a dialnetrical et ge view of the part 3 of the cover, showing the modified form of` flange indicated by dotted lines in Fig. l.
Like symbols of reference indicate like 2o parts in each.
The object of our invention is to provide a cover of an improved construction for barrels, pails, or boxes for use by grocers and other retail and wholesale dealers for con- 2 5 taining goods of a perishable nature and for exposing samples thereof to view without giving free access ot' air or dust either to the barrel or box or to the sample.
le shall lirst describe in detail the con- 3o struction of the cover and shall then indicate specifically the features thereof which distinguish it from covers of the kind previously known or used.
As shown in the drawings, the cover con- 3 5 sists of two sections or parts 2 and 3, which are of such shape that when placed together they are adapted to fit the barrel or box to which they are intended to be applied. Then intended 'for use in covering barrels, cach of 4o these sections is preferably semcircular in outline and is provided with a downwardlyprojecting peripheral ilange t, which may be made to iit either the inside or outside of the barrel and which may be either a complete Harige or may be only partial, forming lugs, as indicated by dotted lines in Fig. l and full lines in Fig. t. One of the sections 2 has formed in it a depression or cavity 5, which is designed to serve as a receptacle for hold- 5o ing and exposing samples of the contents of the barrel, this cavity being made integral with the remainder of the part 2, either by molding, casting. or stamping the cover with such cavity. A glass cover is placed over the cavity, and is preferably hinged to the section 2 by hinges l0, the pintles h off which project from a metal frame or border on the glass, (see Figs. l and 2,) though the glass cover may be otherwise applied. The glass cover may be retained in place by a latch G, 6o as shown in Fig. 2.
In order to provide means for connecting the sections and 3, so that one may be raised, as on a hinge,independently of the other for the purpose of exposing the contents of the barrel, we provide the straight side of one of the sectionssay the section 2-with horizontally-projecting loops 7, which are preferably made integral with the section 2, and on the other section we form corresponding pro- 7o jecting hooks S, which are adapt-ed to fit within the loops 7, as shown in Figs. 2 and These loops and hooks are preferably formed on the under side of the sections of the cover, so that when the cover is in place they are not exposed 7 5 to view. They enable either of the sections to be raised as on a hinge and to be easily removable from the other. At the meeting line of the cover-sections one of them has a flange or projecting portion c, which fits un- 8o der the edge of the other section for the purpose of excluding dust and vermin from the barrel.
In applying the cover to use the sections 2 and 3 are set on the barrel, as shown in Figs. 85 l and 2, and the anges or lugs 4f, fitting outside of the barrel, hold the cover firmly in place, obviating the necessity for the use of: special fastening appliances.
Samples of the contents ot' the barrel are 9o placed in the cavity 5, and when this is covered by the glass lid air and dust lare eX- cluded therefrom; but by removing the lid the samples may be taken out without nncovering the barrel. XVe prefer to cast the two sections of the cover of iron; but they may be made by stamping or otherwise forming metal or other material suitable for the purpose. lf desired, the cover may be suitably enameled or japanned, either on its enroo tire surface or on the sample-cavity 5 alone. In adapting a cover for use on boxes, pails, &c., the construction remains l[he same, the external shape and size being altered to suit the shape and size of the Vessel with which it is used.
We are aware that we are not the first; to use sectional barrel-covers provided with a sample-exhibiting glass-covered recept-acier but such receptacle has heretofore consisted of a removable drawer or tray formed separate from Jche cover, and in order to get access thereto the eover must be removed.
We claim as our invention` The sections 2 and 3, having depending flanges or lugs 4, one of the sections being' provided with a sample-exilibiiing cavity, the meeting edges of the sections overlapping, and the loops 7 and hooks 8 for detaehably hinging together the sections, substantially as and for the purposes described. n
In testimony whereof We have hereunto set our hands'this 2d day of February, A. D.
HENRY J. HEINZ. ROBERT HOFFMAN.
