IMPROVEMENT IN NEEDLE-CASES.
Specilieation forming part of Letters Patent No. 59,737, dated November 13, 1866.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, G. L. TURNEY, of London, England, haveinvented a new and useful Improvement in Needle-Preservers and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to makevand use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which- Figure l represents a plan or top view of this invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal vertical section of the saine. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of a modification thereof. Fig. 5 is a transverse section of the same. Fig. 6 is a plan or top view ofthe same. Fig. 7 is a central section of another modification. Fig. Sis a plan of the same. Fig. 9 is an elevation of a paper of needles.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts.
This invention relates to a novel mode of arranging needles for sale, the object being to dispose of them in packages of a more convenient construction than heretofore, so that the danger of spilling and losing the needles will be removed, while at the same time said needles will be more easily accessible than at present, and they can be taken up one at a time for use without disturbing any of the other needles in the same package.
Instead of folding up the needles in their flat packages, as at present, I lap paper around them and set them up on end in given nnmbers in a groove of annular or other suitable shape or space made to receive them in a small case.
When the lid of the case is removed the needle-heads will be exposed to view, and the needles can readily be taken out one by one Without the risk of their being spilled.
The form of the box or case a, in which I pack my needles, is, by preference, cylindrical,
such as shown in Figs. 7 and 8, a piece, b, of paper or tin-foil being wrapped around them so as to lea-ve their heads exposed to view when the cover of the box is removed. 1f this is done the needles can be readily taken out one by one, as required for use, without the risk of their being scattered or lost.
Each of the boxes a may either contain a quantity ot' needles of the same size, or various sizes otl needles can be wrapped up in the same paper or tin-foil and put in a box, as shown in Figs 7, S, and 9, said box being made to contain needles from No. 4 up to No. 8. The primary boxes a, may be put up in an additional box or case, B, such as shown in Figs. 4, 5, and 6.
For tailors or stores a box, A, may be taken, such as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. This box is provided with a number of sockets to receive the primary boxes a and retain them in an upright position, leaving their tops exposed, so that the numbers or sizes of the needles contained in each box can be readily ascertained, and the boxes are kept in a convenient position for use or for sale.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The method herein described of putting up needles, by wrapping them up in a paper or tin-foil, b, leaving their heads exposed, and inclosing said paper or tin-foil in a box, c, substantially as set forth.
The above specification ofY my inventio signed by me this 17 th day of July, 1866.
