DUST-PAN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 678,906, dated July 23, 1901.
Application iiled March 29, 1901. Serial No. 53,454. (No model.)
To all whom, t may concern.-
Be it known that I, HERBERT WARREN ROGERS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Watertown, in the county of Jefferson and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Dust-Pan, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to dust-pans, and has for its object to provide an improved device of this character which is constructed to receive and contain the dust and dirt in such a manner as to permit of the pan being used as a receptacle for carrying the dirt from one room to another without the necessity of emptying the pan at the conclusion of each sweeping. It is furthermore designed to provide for a cheap and durable construction of pan which is effectually braced against being bent out of shape and otherwise damaged by the usual hard usuage to which dust-pans are commonly subjected.
With these and other objects in view the present invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter more fully described, shown in the accompanying drawings,and particularly pointed out in the appended claim, it being understood that changes in the form, proportion, size, and minor details may be made within the scope of the claim without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective View of a dust-pan constructed and arranged in accordance with the present invention. Fig. 2 is a central longitudinal sectional View thereof.
Corresponding parts are designated by like characters of reference in both figures of the drawings.
Referring to the drawings, it will be seen that the bottoni 1, the opposite sides 2, and the back 3 of the pan are all formed from a single sheet of metal, the sides being bent up from the bottom portion and the back being also bent up, with its opposite ends bent to embrace the outer faces of the respective side pieces, as indicated at 4, and the top edge being bent or folded outwardly to form a stiffening and strengthening portion 5. As plainly indicated in Fig. 2, the back inelines inwardly or forwardly, so that the stem-like handle 6,' which is secured to the middle of the outer side of the back, has an opposite upward inclination, so as to facilitate the manipulation of the pan; also, a ring 7 is loosely secured to the outer terminal of the handle to permit of the pan being hung up and also conveniently carried in a suspended position.
It is designed to provide the pan with a dirtpocket, so as to retain the dust and dirt swept into the pan, and this object is accomplished by means of a top plate or cover 8, which is formed from a single sheet of metal having its outer edge folded over and embracing the outer edge of the bottom of the pan, as at 9, so as to form a tight connection therewith. The outer portion 10 of this plate inclines upwardly and inwardly, its opposite edge portions being folded upwardly and over upon the adjacent portions of the upstanding sides of the pan, as at l1, whereby the part lO lies below the top edges of the sides, and the latter form upstanding anges to prevent lateral scattering of the dirt and direct the same into the pan. It will be understood that the outer end portions of the sides of the pan have their upper edges inclined upwardly from the bottom of the pan inwardly for a distance equal to the length of the corresponding front portion 10 of the top plate and the remaining edge portions being horizontal or inclining slightly upwardly and rearwardly, as shown. The inner end portion of the top plate also lies below the upper edges of the sides of the pan, so as to produce upstanding ianges at opposite sides thereof, and has its opposite side portions bent upwardly and over the top edges of the pan sides, as at l2, the inner edge of the plate being bent under to form a stiffening and strengthening portion 13. It will be understood that all of the overlapped joints of the pan are also soldered or otherwise connected, so as to secure tight and rigid joints.
From the foregoing description it is apparent that the dust and dirt is designed to be swept inwardly over the top plate and finally deposited upon the bottom of the pan, and when the latter is raised by the handle, with the front end of the pan hanging downwardly, the dirt will be collected in the pocket between IOO 'withstand hard usage and to facilitate the in-v trioduetion of the sweepings into the dirtpocket.
The sweepings may be conveniently removed from the pan by inverting or .tilting the same upon the handle thereof, whereby the dirt may be dumped ont through the top opening between the back 3 and the top plate 8.
What is claimed is- A dust-pan, formed by a bottom plate, having its opposite side edges bent upwardly into upstanding sides, the corresponding frontend edges of which incline upwardly and inwardly from the front edge of the-bottom, and the rear side of the bottom being bent upwardly into an npstanding back, the opposite ends of which are bent to embrace the end edges of the npstanding sides, a handle applied to the back, and a top plate fitted snugly between the sides ot' the pan and below the upper edges thereof, said edge portions rising above the plate and forming opposite anges, the front edge of the latter being folded to embrace the front edge of the bottom, and the sides of the plate being bent to embrace Y the respective top 'edges of the sides ofthe pan, the top plate forming a transverse brace for the sides of the pan.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
