Definitions

  • This invention relates to an automatic or self striking match box, so fitted, and constructed that the matches, on being withdrawn one at a time, are struck and ignited.
  • Figurel of the accompanying drawings represents in vertical section, an automatic striking match box, constructed, and arranged according to my invention.
  • the said box is so constructed and arranged that matches are both delivered one at a time, and struck and ignited in the act of being withdrawn.
  • Fig. 2 represents the said match box inverted and slightly inclined, and which, when shaken, compels a match to fall into a lead, which is coincident and a lignable with the striker and mouth outlet of the box.
  • FIG. 3 represents the said box in an inverted and upright position, and with the releasing lever shown pressed back, which liberates, or forms a clearance for, the stem of the match to fall through, while its head is suspended or held by a catch stop at the inner outlet of the box, and when in this last named position, the lever is then released, and the match subsequently pulled, which draws the head of the match past the catch stop, and then brings the said head into intimate contact with the striker, hence the ignition, and should the head he pulled off by the act of striking, the same is caught, and prevented from passing inwardly into the box by the semi-closed inner outlet.
  • Fig. 4 represents the match box, with a match withdrawn, struck and ignited.
  • Fig. 5 represents the match box again inverted, or with its striking end uppermost, and with a match held torchlike, by the stem coming between back of mouth and striker as a holder.
  • Fig. 6 is a cross section on the dotted line A Fig. 1, showbox, is a combined lever and ing the arrangement of the semi-partitions, for taking off the weight of the bulk of the matches contained within the box from the one being delivered, and also keeping them in their proper relative positions.
  • Fig. 7 shows the lever ends of the box. view showing the combined lining and semipartitions separately.
  • Fig. 9 is an edge view of the combined lever and striker.
  • Fig. 10 is a plan of the same.
  • Figs. 11 and 12 are side views partly in section of a modified construction of my improved match box.
  • a is an elongated and rectangular shaped box or metallic shell, closed at its sides, fitted at bottom with a lid a jointed at a and with the striking end closed, save for a small opening 0. of about the size of the head of a match, and with the same coming alignable with a load a located upon one side of the box.
  • Fig. 8 is a detail Situated on the striking or top side of the striker b, fulcrumed or jointed at 19*, and with the striking or serrated end b partially closing the mouth entrance a, formed by a semi-shroud a", which makes as it were, to the striking side of the box, and a continuation of the lead a
  • the presser end b is pushed upward by the free end 0 of a spring 0, held between a clip a and'the top of the box, and with the fore part c of the' said spring extended into a catch stop 0 which intercepts the matches by their heads as they fall from the b0x,'and which are there held in a suspended position until the lever of the striker has been liberated, and the said match pulled forcibly from the box by its stem, which hangs out of the box as in Fig.
  • the tip 0 of the stop catch slightly extends itself into the inner outlet a so that the inversion of the box as in Fig. 3, when the striker is clear, allows a match to fall down the lead, and it becomes then suspended by its head.
  • the lever 0, turns within bearings or ears d, while the interior of the box has semi-partitions e, slightly inclined from the sides toward the middle of the box, and in manner that the matches take a circuitous course, and are prean extended lip vented from pressing unduly upon the one being Withdrawn.
  • These partitions are preferably pressed out of the same metal as the lining e, while the lid of the match box is secured by a catch a".
  • the middle of the striker part of the lever is gapped and slightly sunken at if", and with the teeth or serrations slightly turned upward.
  • Figs. 11 and 12 a is the box or shell, with inclosed sides, open bottom, and closed by a lid, with the metal at the striker end of the box formed into a lever 19, fulcrumed at b and having a presser part 19 and a striker part 19 C is a spring limb or rest to which is pivotally attached the lever 19.
  • the metal is made sufficiently thin, so that When pressed forcibly at b, as in Fig.
  • the striker part 19 gapes or cocks upward, and allows the stem of a match to fall, until the same is intercepted by the tip 0 of a split end 0 of the spring or inner support c,after which, the withdrawal of pressure allows the deflected metal top to resume its normal figure, and the striker to close upon the match, and by the withdrawal of the same, the head is struck or ignited.
