SHOW-GAS E.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 615,072, dated November 29, 1898.
Application filed July 8, 1898. Serial No- 685,439. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, EDWARD LEE and JOHN STANSFELD PIOKFORD, subjects of the Queen of England, residing at London, England, have invented a certain new and useful Show-Case or the Like, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to an improved form of show-case having an internal removable show-face and comprises improvements in the construction of the show-face and in the manner of securing it within the case.
The invention is more particularly applicable to tins for biscuits, confectionery, and the like and may be conveniently described in connection with the same.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of an open biscuit-tin with the show-face in position, but with its back partly raised. Fig. 2 is a view of a portion of the inside of the tin, showing the devices for retaining the show-face in position. Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1, but with the lid of tin and back of show-face completely closed. Fig. lis a perspective view of the show-face, and Fig. 5 a similar view of its movable back.
Like letters indicate like parts throughout the drawings.
A is a rectangular biscuit-tin, which may be of ordinary construction, with one side out out, leaving beadings A to engage the front of the show-face. Preferably the top beading is deeper than the others, forming a convenient surface for displaying the name of the goods or for other notices. On the bottom of the tin, inside, is fixed a stop A placed at a distance from the front beading A, corresponding to the depth of the show-face. \Vithin the box, secured to the top beading, is a strip of tin A to engage the top of the show-face, furnished with a hook A at each end. This strip may be conveniently formed, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, in one piece with the front beadings A, and its free edge may be strengthened by being bent around a wire A, the turned-in ends of which would form the hooks A The show-face B comprises a shallow frame, of which the two sides B are beveled from which it is held in position by the bevel of the sides B without the need for other fastening. The back of the frame is provided with vertical beadings B grooved to receive the sliding back or cover 0, and a bead B is placed atitsbottom edge.
The back or cover O is a plain rectangular sheet with a turned-over top edge, forming a groove 0 at each end to receive the hooks A of the tin A, previously described.
The show-face, with its back or cover removed, is placed in position in the tin so that its front beading B is against the beading A of the tin. Its top 13* is then beneath the piece A in such a position that the grooves of the back beadings B coincide with the spaces between the books A at each end of the piece A and the adjacent edge of that piece, and by sliding the cover 0 into the grooves the show-face is closed and also looked in position by the engagement of the grooves O of the turned-over top edge of the cover with the hooks A Besides holding the glass front in position, as above described, the beveled sides B of the show-face have a second use. It is usual in biscuit and like tins to strengthen the top edge by a bead or like device, as shown at A and it is desirable that this bead should be within the boX. It is also desirable that the show-face should be the full inside width of the tinto avoid side movement. If the sides B of the'show-face were at right angles to its front, it would in that case be impossible to place it in position; but owing to the beveled sides the show-face can be inserted in the box on a slant and then brought square with the front when below the top beading of the tin.
\Ve claim- 1. A show case or box having one open side and provided with an internally-removable show-face exposed at the open side the showface having a sliding back and the show-case beveled show-face exposed at the open side,the show-face having a sliding back and the showcase having projections which are engaged by the sliding back of the show-face.
In testimony whereof we have hereto set our hands in the presence of the two subscribin g witnesses.
EDWARD LEE. JOHN STANSFELD PICKFORD.

ALFRED J. BOULT, HARRY B. BRIDGE.
