KNOCKDOWN KEG.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 465,291, dated December15, 1891.
Application and February 19,1891. Serial Noss2,o97.- (Nomodel-J State of Ohio,have invented certain new and useful Improvementsin Knockdown Kegs;
and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in theart to which it pertains to makeand use the same. I
My invention relates to an improved knockdown keg or similar package as an article of manufacture, the object being to improve the package, cheapen the initial cost, and to lessen the expense of transportation.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a plan of a blank that is to form the body of the package. Fig. 2 is an elevation of the assembled packagef Fig. 3 is aplan of one of the heads. Fig. 4 is a modification, and Fig. 5 is an enlarged detail showing a stave with the paper lining.
A represents the blank that is to form the body of the package, this blank consisting of staves a, laid side by side by means of strong paper B, pasted, glued, or cemented to the inner surface of the staves, with one end of the paper that usually constitutes the lin ing projecting beyond the staves perhaps an inch or two, more or less, so as to overlap the joints when the blank has been folded into a circular form. The staves are crozed, as at a, to receivethe heads 0, and the paper B extends across or at least part-way across the crozing, so that in placing the heads the paper is crowded'into the crozing, thus serving as packing, whereby a tight joint is inserted. As the blank is bent into circular form to form the packages the paper lining or securing strips of paper becomes slack at the joints of the staves, where it becomes puckered, wrinkled, or folded, and this surplus paper expands in forcing the heads into the crozin g,
so that usually the paper is not torn in placing in the heads, and in filling the package with whatever material is to be shipped therein these folds or wrinkles along the joints of 'the staves are pressed outward against the staves along these joints, thus effectually packing these joints, but leaving the paper lining intact. By means of this paper lining a package of the variety known as slack or dry cooperage is made suitable for ship ping-for instance, flour, oatmeal, pulverized sugar, and various commodities that heretofore have usually been shipped in much more expensive packages.
The heads O are likely to be made in two or more pieces; but if made only in one piece the heads are lined with the same materialheavy strong papershown at o, the lining of the heads being at least flush with the edges of the heads, so that lining 0 also enters the crozing, and is thereby crowded against lining B, so that the goods shipped in the package need not come in contact with the wood. 1
In preparing the knockdown packages for shipment the blanks Asay fifty, moreor less, in number-are piled the one above the other and tied in bundles; also the heads are in like manner tied in bundles, and the hoops, so that these packages in their knocked-down condition can be stored away in'cars or other .vehicles of transportation, occupying but entire surface of the blank, but may be ap- V plied in strips, in which case strips should at least occurnear the crozing or ends of the blank for more firmly securing the latter while being handled previous to being assembled in the kegs.
In the modification the staves taper slightly at their ends, and they are conveniently secured to the lining so that narrow spaces are formed between them.
IVhat I claim is A blank for knockdown kegs, barrels, &c., comprising sta ves with crozes form ed therein, and a lining glued, pasted, or cemented to the inner'surfaeesof the staves and extending over the crozes, in combination with heads adapted to enter the crozes in the usual manner, with the lining'interposed to form a packing, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I sign this specification, in the presence of two witnesses, this 27th day of January, 1891. g
