CHARLES L. VIGHT, OF MAHUKONA, I-IAVAII.
FRUIT-JAR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 480,537, dated August 9, 1892.
Application filed August 1, 1891. Renewed .Tuly v11, 1892. Serial No. 439,567. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern,.-
Be it known that I, CHARLES L. VIGHT, of Mahnkona, Hawaii, have invented a new and Improved Fruit-Jar, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the annexed drawings, forming a part thereof, in which- Figure l is a side elevation of my improved fruit-jar. Fig. 2 is a plan view. Fig. 3 is a vertical transverse section taken on line fr x in Fig. l, parts being broken away tol show the tenons on the corner-posts and the sockets or holes therefor in the cover and bottom. Fig. 4 is a horizontal section taken on line y y in Fig. 1, and Fig. 5 is a vertical transverse section of a modified form.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
The object of my invention is to construct a jar for the preservation of fruit, honey, butter, dac., which may be inexpensively made, is not liable to breakage, and which is formed of parts which may be shipped in a knockdown state and assembled at the place of use.
My invention consists in the construction and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter described and claimed.
The base-board A is formed of any suitable wood or analogous material which will absorb a waterproofing substance, such as paraffine. In the board near the corners are formed holes a for receiving the tenons of the corner-posts B. The posts B are preferably made rectangular in cross-section and are provided in two of their adjoining faces with grooves b for receiving the glass sides C, which also extend downwardly into the grooves cin the base-board A. The upper ends of the corner-posts B are provided with tenons which are received in holes in the cover D, the said cover being also provided with the grooves d for receivingv the upper edges of the glass sides C. The cover D, which is made of the same material as the base-board, is provided with a groove f in the upper surface thereof. To the cover D is fitted a metallic cap E, provided with downwardly-projecting ears g, which enter into the groove f.
In Fig. 5 is shown a modification in which the glass sides C are inclined outwardly at the top, thereby making a flaring jar, as shown. The joints are rendered tight by a suitable cement-such, for example, as shellac or parailine softened by the addition of vaseline.
After the body of the jar is assembled and filled the cover is put in its place and cemented. The cap E is shipped with the jar, A
so that after the jar is opened by means of a can-opening tool inserted in the groove f the cap may be used for closing the jar.
In carrying out my invention I do not limit myself to the use of wood, as I may Vemploy any waterproof material or suitable material which may be waterproof or rendered waterproof; nor do I confine myself to the use of glass for the material of the sides, as I may use wood, metal, or porcelain for this purpose.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desireto secure by Letters Patentl. A knockdown jar or receptacle comprising a bottom having marginal grooves in its upper face and sockets or holes intersecting said grooves, a cover having similar grooves and holes, corner-posts each having two longitudinal grooves and end tenons to enter the base and cover sockets, and the side panels, the longitudinal edges of which fit the base and cover grooves and the vertical edges the post-grooves, substantially as set forth.
2. A jar, formed of the grooved base-board A, provided with holes d, the corner-posts B, grooved longitudinally and provided with tenons at opposite ends, the sides C, the cover D, furnished with grooves for receiving lthe sides and holes for receiving the tenons of the corner-posts and provided with the central opening e and groove f, and the cap E, furnished with downwardly-proj ectin g ears g, substantially as specified.
In a vessel of the character described, the cover having an4 annular groove f in its upper face to define its place of opening and a closure of greater diameter than the groove and having downward-projecting ears entering the groove, substantially as set forth.
CHARLES L. WIGHT.
