IMPROVEMENT IN HINGING LIDS OI TEA-KETTLES.

TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: I
Be it known that I, lNILLIAM L. McDOWELL, of the city of Philadelphia, in the State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful'Improvement in the .Manufacture of the Hinged-Lid Tea-Kettle; andI do hereby I declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 is a plane view of the uppersidc of the said improved kettle. Figure 2, a vertical section of the same, on the dotted line 1' y of fig. 1; and Figure 3, a dotted vertical section of the hinge' Like letters of reference indicating the same parts when in the different figures. Heretofore, in the manufacture of the hinged-lid tea-kettle, it has been necessary to give the lid :1. compara- I tively small diameter, in order that it may be opened back suiiiciently to keep it from closing again of itself, while the bail or handle is in its upright or raised position, and, consequently, in order to allow of this, either the bail must be made objectionably high, or the diameter of the mouth of the kettle must be made so small that the introduction of the moulders hand, as is required in mouldings. tea-kettle, is attended with much difiiculzy and delay. Besides, in providing forthe attachment of such a lid, two lugs have to be moulded on the kettle for the same, which operation adds also to the time consumed in moulding, and these lugs, with the intervening part of the lid, have also to be drilled for the spindle of the joint, to be subsequently inserted and riveted fast. The object of my improvement is to provide against these objections in the manufacture of the hingedlid tea-kettle; and the nature of my invention consists in moulding the hinged lid separately from the kettle, and afterward attaching the same thereto, substantially in the manner hereinafter described and set forth.
Referring to the drawings, A B is the body of the kettle; O, the bail; and D E the lid. The circular mouth of the kettle is made to have a diameter sufiiciently large to admit with facility the hand of the moulder around the usual anchor-rod of tho core," which, in moulding a tea-kettle, is required to stand vertically in the centre of the circular mouth of the kettle. The bail O is made so as to be of the usual height when in the raised or upright position shown in fig. 2. In short, the kettle is inade to have the comparatively large mouth and low-bail characteristic of the old-fashioned detached-lid tea-kettle. The lid D E consists of two distinct segments, coupled together at their bases by means of a journal-stem, 01, cast on one and overlapped by e, cast on the other, (see fig. 3;) thus causing them to become hinged together when applied over themouth of the kettle, the same being secured by means of two small rivets e" e, which pass through E and the edge of the body of the kettle, as shown in fig. 1. Thus the larger segment D is left free to be turned upward or opened beyond a vertical position, (or back against the back part of the bail 0 when the latter is at its raised or vertical position,) shown by thedotted lines in fig. 2. While this mode of constructing and applying the hinged lid of a ten-kettle dispenses with the lugs, heretofore required, and the consequent drilling, it admits of securing it so that it will open either backward, forward, or sideways, without interfering with a very low bail; and it will beseen that it also adinits of the mouth of the kettle being made large enough to receive, with facility and ease, the hand of theworkm'an in moulding around the usual anchor-stem in the mouth of the kettle. The increased facility and economy of time afforded in moulding the body A B of the kettle around the anchorstem, and the avoidance of drilling," much more than compensate for the little time required for riveting this lid D E to the body A B; and the whole kettle is, besides, more merchantable than any other hinged-lid tea-kettle in the market. Small lugs may be moulded andcast on each of the straight edges of the two'segments d and e, no as to produce a hinged joint when the segments are adjusted together and united by a spindle, at a much less expenditure of time in moulding than is required to mould the lugs upon the body of the kettle; but my first-described modeI consider as more economical and appropriate.
v I am aware that a lid sliding horizontally over the mouth of a tea-kettle, to which it is attached by a pivot, has been used, and which allows the wide mouth required in moulding the kettle; but this construction is too costly, as it requires the rubbing surfaces to be planed or ground ofi' smooth and even; and, moreover, the lid is very liable to be broken off at its stem while open. I therefore do not desire to claim, broadly, a wide-mouthed tea-kettle, with an adjustable lid attached thereto; nor do I intend to confine myself to the precise mode shownin the drawings, of hinging-t'he two segments (1' and c together; but, having fully described the peculiarities of my improvement in the hinged-lid tea-kettle- What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is as follows, viz I claim a wide-mouthed teakettlc having a hinged lid attached consisting of the two segments D E coupled together, and applied so as to operate substantially as described, and for the purposes specified.
