COMBINED TOBACCO BOX-AND CUTTER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 487,162, dated November 29, 1892.
Application filed November 27,1891. Serial No. 413,255. (Model.) i
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARRY J. SAXTON, of the city of St. Louis, State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Tobacco-Box and Cutter, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
My invention relates to improvements in a combined tobacco box and cutter; and it consists in the novel arrangement and combination of parts, as will be more fully hereinafter described, and designated in the claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a vertical longitudinal section of my complete invention, taken on the line .fr of Fig. 4. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the lever which I use in connection with my invention. Fig. 3 is a 2o vertical transverse section taken on the line 'y y of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a top plan view of my invention. Fig. 5 is a bottom plan View thereof. Fig. 6 is a vertical transverse section taken on the line z e' of Fig. 1. Fig. 7 is an end view of the invention, and Fig. S is a perspective view of the spring.
The object of my invention is to provide a box which can be conveniently carried in the pocket and within which is preferably placed 3o plug-tobacco, whereby the sameis kept moist and in better condition for chewing.
My invention further relates to a knife or cutter so arranged in said box that it can be operated therein by means of mechanism 3 5 as hereinafter described, whereby a small quantity of tobacco for chewing can be cut from the plug so placed in the box.
v Referring to the drawings, 1 represents a rectangular box which is so constructed as 4o to receive the Working parts of my invention, and also the tobacco from which the desired amount to be chewed at any one time is cut. Said box 1 is provided with a vertical wall 2, which extends downward about one-half the height of the box, and a top 3, which leads from said wall rearward to the end of said box, upon which the lever rests when the same is in its normal position.
Within the space formed by the sides of the box 1, division-wall 2, and top 3 the plugtobacco desired to be cut is placed.
Before proceeding further in the description of the mechanical parts of myinvention it will be well to state that the tobacco is first cut in the shape as shown inrFig. 1 of the drawings, in order that the said tobacco may be cf such a thickness that it may be easily fed under the knife or cutter.
4 represents a door which closesa space in the rear of the box, through which space the tobacco is passed into the box, after which the door 4 is closed, as shown in Fig. 7 of the drawings.A
The bottom of the box 1 consists of a plate 5 and is provided with an elongated slot 6, through which slot a pin 7 is adapted to move. The pin 7 is provided with a knob 8, by which the same may be manipulated, and the opposite end thereof, or that end which projects into the interior of the box, is provided with a point 9, which point is inserted into the tobacco l0, as shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings. By this means the tobacco to be cut can be easily fed under the knife `or cutter by the manipulation of the knob 8.
The exterior surface of the bottom of the box 1 is graduated adjacent to the slot 6, formed therein, and by means of the pin 7, which will act as an indicator, the desired amount of tobacco to be cut from the plug can be easily ascertained.
Adjacent to the wall 2 and formed on both the interior sides of the box 1 are formed grooves 1l, within which grooves the cutter or knife 12 is adapted to move. The operating-lever 13, which is pivoted within the sides of the box 1 by a bolt 14, is adapted when in its normal position, as shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings, to be flush with the upper edge of the box l. rlhe lever 13 is provided with a right-angular extension 15, which is forked, in order to receive other connections, as hereinafter described.
16 represents a link, which is also forked, as shown at 17, the upper end of which is adapted to be interposed between the forked ends of the extension 15 of the lever 13 and loosely bolted thereto by means of a bolt 18.
vheld in its normal position, as shown in Fig. 1
The forked end 17 of the link 16 is movably connected to the right-angular extension 19, attached rigidly to the knife 12 by means of a bolt 20.
By the construction as above described when the operating-lever 13 is in the position as shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings, the knife or cutter 12 will be lowered; but when the said lever is raised the extensions 15 thereof are carried inwardly and upwardly, and thus, through the medium of the connecting-link 16, elevate the knife or cutter and carry the same out of contact with the tobacco. In this last-named position of the knife the tobacco 10 can be easily fed under the said knife a desired dist-ance, and when this is done the lever 13 on being depressed causes the said knife or cutter to be brought in contact with the tobacco so fed under the knife, and thereby cut the said tobacco.
In order to provide for the free movement of the knife-operating mechanism, the bearing in the casing for the bolt 14 may be in the form of slots, as shown in dotted lines, Fig. 1; but it will be understood that this is not essential to the practical operation of the device.
In some instances the tobacco after being cut or that portion desired to be chewed may remain in the box and not fall out, as desired. In order to overcome this Objection,1 cut away the casing of the box 1 at that portion of the box in order that the fingers may be used to extract the tobacco from the box.
In order that the operating-lever 13 may be of the drawings, I use a spring, such as 21, which encircles the shaft 14, one arm of said spring being rigidlysecured to theoperating 'lever and the other arm rigidly secured tok the casing 1. In order to accommodate the said spring, I countersink the lever 13 adjacent to the pivot 14, as shown at 22, and leading from said countersunk portion formed within the said lever is a depression 23, which depression receives thearm 24 of the said spring. The arm 25 of the spring 21 is passed into a groove 26, formed in one side of the casing 1, as shown in Fig. 4 of the drawings. The door 4 is provided with adepression 27, by which means the said door may be manipulated.
I do not wish to limit myself to the precise construction and location of the parts as shown and described, as it is quite evident that the same maybe modified without departing from the nature of my invention.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim is- 1. As an improvement in pocket tobaccoboxes, the combination, with the box provided with a wall dividing said box into two compartments communicating at the lower end of the box, one of said compartments being open and the other closed at the bottom, of a sliding knife working adjacent to the division-wall and in the compartment having the open bottom, aplug-feeding device working in the bottom of the other compartment, and means for operating the knife, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. A's an improvement in pocket tobaccoboxes, the combination, with the box divided into two compartments communicating with each other at the lower end of the box, one of said compartments being provided with a door and the other having an open bottom, of a knife sliding in the latter compartment and a lever pivoted Within the box and pivotally connected with the knife,substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereofIaftix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
HARRY J. SAXTON.
