UNITED STATES PATENT EEicE.
MATTHEW GRISWOLD, JR.,
OF ERIE, PENNSYLVANIA.
WAFFLE-IRON.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 674,628, dated May 21, 1901.
Application filed January 31, 1901. Serial No. 45.4.45. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MATTHEW GRIswoLD, Jr., a citizen of the United States, residing at Erie, in the county of Erie and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Waffle-Irons; and I do hereby declare the following to be afull, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to makeand use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, forming part of this specification.
My invention relates to improvements in waffle-irons; and it consists substantially in the improvements hereinafter set forth and described, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a top or plan view of my improved waftle-iron. Fig. 2 is a side view of the same, partly in elevation and partly in section. Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail view of the waffle-iron hinge in side elevation. Fig. 4: is a like rear end View of the same in elevation. Fig. 5 is a like rear View of the two parts of the hinge moved apart. Fig. 6 is a like top or plan view of the two sections of the hinge moved apart. Fig. 7 is a like view of the inner face of one half of the hinge.
In the drawings illustrating my invention, A is an annular ring forming the wattle-iron frame. The base B of this ring flares downward and outward to its lowest point, from which point it curves upward, so as to form an annular trough C of considerable depth entirely around the base B of the ring A, and to the outer edge of the trough O of the base B there is a handle D. To the ring Aat one side there is secured an upright circular socket E, the side of which next to the ring A is cut away down nearly to the bottom thereof. This socket has a semispherical bottom and is provided with an opening 6 therein directly over the trough C, so that any grease accumulating in the socket E will drain down into the trough O. The ring A has also a notch or therein directly opposite the socket E, adapted to receive the handle f of a waffie-iron F, of which the hinge H rests in the socket E, so that the shank h of the hinge H and the handles f form journals resting in the opening in the socket E and the notch a in the ring A, so that the waffle-iron F is rotatable thereon, and in the opposite edges of the ring A there are notches a a, with which the pin f on the edge of the wafile-iron is adapted to engage. The hinge H is composed of two duplicate parts I I, one of which is attached to the shank hon each half of the waffle-iron F. These halves I I of the hinge H consist each of a disk having its inner surface flat and having a segment i of its peripherycut away, as illustrated in Figs. 4 and 7, and projecting outwardly beyond the inner face of each disk there is a lug t', which is adapted to pass around over the depressed segment t' on the opposite disk I and engage therewith, so as to prevent the halves of the hinge H from being moved apart on a line with their meeting faces, and which lugs as the hinge is opened and closed freely travel around the segment 'i of the hinge-sections. At right angles to the faces of each of the sections I of the hinge there is a semicircular rib I on the outside thereof, (clearly illustrated in Fig. 6,) which contacts with the walls of the socket E, so as to hold thefaces of the hinge-sections I I when placed therein closely in contact, and operates also within said socket as bearing-surfaces when the waffieiron is rotated, so that it can be rotated either when in a horizontal position or when held with the handles at an angle of forty-five degrees with the ring A without the hinge-sections I I coming apart.
It will be observed that in operation the waffle-iron can be opened, and when the upper half thereof is raised to a point slightly beyond perpendicular the edge of the pan will engage and rest upon the top 6 of the socket E, so that it will remain in such upraised position; also, that the halves of the waffle-iron can be detached from each other without removing the hinge H from the socket E when the pan is rotated to a vertical position and can be detached in any other position when the hinge H is raised from the socket E; also, that the relation of the socket E with the trough C is such that all grease draining from the waffle-iron' F passes down into the socket E and through the opening 8 into the grease-trough 0, thus avoiding the difficulty of having the grease run down into the fire, as is the case with waffle-irons as ordinarily constructed.
Having thus described my invention, so as to enableothers to construct and use the same, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is-
l. The combination in a waffle-iron frame comprising substantially a ring with a pcripheral trough in its base, a hinge-socket on said ring having an opening therein draining into the trough on the base, a waffle-iron supported by said frame, a hinge consisting of duplicate sections adapted to rest in said socket, one section of said hinge being on each half of the waffle-iron, and each of said sections consisting substantially of a circular disk having a section of its periphery cut away, and a lug thereon overhanging and engaging the duplicate section of the hinge where the periphery thereof is cut away, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. In a waffle-iron, a hinge comprised substantially of duplicate sections each having portions of its periphery cutaway, and a lug on each of said sections overhanging and. engaging the duplicate section of said hinge where the periphery thereof is cutaway, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
3. A waffle-iron hinge-section comprising substantially a flat disk on each half of the waffle-iron, having a segment 7; of its periphery cut away, and a lug 2" on the periphery of said disk at one end of the depressed segment t' thereof, which lug projects outwardly from the face of said disk so as to overhang and engage and travel in the depressed segment '5 of the duplicate hinge section, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
