G. SMITH.
Coal Scuttle.
Patented July 31. 1866.
- GEORGE SMITH, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.-
COAL-SCUTTLE.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 56,812, dated July 31, 1866 To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, GEORGE SMITH, of the city of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Goal-Scuttle; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of thesame, reference being had to the drawings which accompany and form part of this specification.
Of these drawings, Figure 1 represents a vertical central section of my improved coal- Fig. 2 represents a side elevation of for many years past, and invery general use at the present time,is formed of three parts,all composed of metal-namely, a rim or base, a bottom, and a body containing the handle. These three parts are joined together by doubleseaming, as it is termed. This kind of scuttle has tight joints, is light to handle, and very durable with respect to resisting the strain upon its joints, because of their being doubleseamed, as stated. Many improvements on this scuttle havebeen tried; but, in consequence of their benefiting one feature or essential and making no provision for another, there has not, as is well known to the trade, yet been anything manufactured superior to it. For instance, one of these improved scuttles has the base and bottom all constructed out of cast-iron-a novelty, but more of a retrograde than a progressive step as respects utility, as it renders the scuttle too heavyand cumbersome to the user when filled with coal, and consequently has not come into public use to any extent.
Another one of these improved scuttles has substituted for sheet-iron in the bottom cast metal, and such cast-metal bottom is riveted to the body, having the rim or base secured by beingsimply peened over, as itis termed, and a bead made on the edge of this bottom. This leaves the base in a very insecure state, and liable to be knocked off when the scuttle is being carried full of coal. This scuttle has also the objection of not having its joints perfectly tight, and therefore the manufacturer is obliged to fill up with putty or some kind of cement the crevices left in it after the parts are riveted and otherwise put together.
Still another of these improved scuttles gives a novel mode of construction by joining the rim and body by means of one or more disks answering for the bottom; but such modeof construction does not give a durable scuttle, and besides is very complicated in parts and expensive to manufacture.
And still another of these improved scuttles gives the consumer a removable stamped-up bottom and rim in one piece. This admits of a partial removal of parts-that is to say, into two parts for repairs or replacementbut does not admit of the insertion of a stouter or heavier bottom, if desired, without coming within the objection of the cast-iron rim and bottom scuttle above mentioned.
Now, my improvements follow closely; and they consist in making the old double-seamed scuttle first above described of three removable parts, and having these parts adjustable to each other, so that the wear upon any one of them can be corrected by replacing the-wornout or injured part; and they further consist in arranging its construction so that when these three parts are put together it will have them all bound securely, each to the other, in a simple and durable manner, and as effectually as if they were double-seamed, and leaving no crevices to be filled up with putty or cement;
and they further consist in permitting of the use of heavier metal, such as malleable or other iron, heavy sheetiron, or copper, in the bottom of the scuttle, for the purpose of getting a more durable and at the same time removable bottom without rendering the scuttle so heavy as to add materially to its weight.
To enable others to make and use my said improved coal-scuttle, I will proceed to describe its construction.
a is the body of the scuttle. b is the base or rim. 0 is the bottom. 01 d at d are screws or bolts, and e e c e are nuts for fastening same.
The base or rim 1) can be struck up out of one piece or made in the ordinary way. The upper edge of this rim is formed into the shape of a shoulder, f. The bottom 0 has an edge or flange projecting down all round it, and
tightly fits onto the raised rim of the shoulder f, as a cover would onto a box; and over, completely covering and concentric with, this edge of the bottom is placed the body a, the edge of the body also resting securely on this shoulder f.
. This, it will be perceived, brings the three parts together, and one over the other, in a perfectly snug and simple manner, asufficient distance to enable them to be secured to each other. By this inode of construction I am enabled to place screws, bolts, or otherdevices through the three parts or thicknesses at the same time, and fasten with nuts underneath the bottom out of view and away from the danger of such fastenings being meddled with.
This mode of construction gives me the strength and advantages of double-seaming,
including tightness of joints, besides admitscribed.
