REGEPTAGLE FOR BURNED AND UNBURNED MATCHES.
UNITED STATES Patented August 16, 1904.
PATENT OFFICE.
RECEPTACLE FOR BURNED AND UNBURNED MATCHES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 767,675, dated August 16, 1904.
Application filed December 31, 1903. Serial No. 187,310. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARRY S. ALEXANDER, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Richmond Hill, in the county of Queens and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Receptacles for Burned and Unburned Matches, of which the following is a specification.
The subject of this invention is a combined safe for unburned and burned matches, one of the more prominent objects of the invention being the production of an article of the character referred to which shall not only be more simple and efficient in construction, but which will be capable of permitting the fragments of the burned matches to be collected and removed in a convenient and cleanly manner.
With the above and other purposes in view the improved safe comprises a sheet-metal construction embodying a backing-section having an upper perforated suspending-ear, the body of said section being provided at appropriately-located points with slots adapted for the passage of tabs or ears formed with suitable blanks adapted to be bent to constitute the rectangular bodies of the upper matchsafe and lower burned-match receptacle, such parts being securely attached to the backingsection by oppositely bending the tabs or tongues against the rear face of the section. The bottom of the lower receptacle is presented by a hinged plate adapted to be retained in a closed position by reason of an integral catch at its front being engaged with the pro-v jecting portion of a rod forming a heading for the front wall of the receptacle.
There are other important features connected with the invention, which, besides those alluded to, are clearly set forth in the subsequent detailed description.
In the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, Figure l is a front View of the combined match-safe and burned-match receptacle. Fig. 2 is a side view of the article represented in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a rear view showing more particularly the manner of clenching the receptacle tabs or tongues.
Similar reference characters are employed receptacle instead of the safe.
to designate corresponding parts in the several figures of the drawings wherein they occur.
The backing-section A is formed by a plate of sheet metal configurated and perforated at its top to form a suspending-ear a. At its upper portion this plate contains a series of transverse and vertically-disposed slots, the latter converging to and intersecting the transverse series of slots.
A sheet-metal blank is folded to present an upper receptacle B, the folding of the blank resulting in a receptacle having a bottom and sides conforming to the general arrangement of the slots. This admits of tongues b, which integrally at the inner edges of the receptacle bottom and sides, being passed through said slots and clenched against the rear surface of the section A to positively secure the receptaclein position. The attachment thus provided for is made all the more secure by reason of the fact that the tabs are successively bent in opposite direction, as indicated in Fig. 8.
The body of the receptacle O, provided for the burned matches, is presented by a sheetmetal blank folded to form the front and side walls, the latter having at their inner edges tabs 0, which are passed through appropriate slots therefor and clenched against the rear side of the section. The bottom of the burned match receptacle is formed by a sheet-metal plate C, hinge-connected to the backing-plate, as indicated by c, this plate being retained in a closed position by reason of a spring-catch c engaging the projecting portion of a rod 0 forming a beading at the lower front edge of the receptacle.
The utility of the device will be readily appreciated. The location of the receptacle 0 below the match-safe B will tend to insure the proper deposit of the burned matches into the Moreover, when desirable the bottom can be disengaged and swung downward to dump the burned accumulations in a convenient and cleanly manner.
The sides of the burned-match receptacle have serrations similar in character to those of asheet-metal grater-2l a, by cross-slitting and outwardly displacing.
Having now described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. An article of the character described comprising the metallic backing-section containing a series of slots, an upper sheet-metal section bent to present the bottom, front and sides, the bottom and sides having inner tabs extending through said slots and clenched against the backing rear successively in opposite directions, and a lower sheetmetal blank bent to form a front and sides, the latter having tabs passed through and successively oppositely clenched against the rear side of the backing-section, and a hinged bottom for the lower receptacle havinga springcatch for engaging the receptacle-front.
2. An article of the character described,
comprising the metallic backing-section con taining a series of slots an upper sheet-metal section bent to present the bottom, front and sides, the bottom and sides having inner tabs extending through said slots and clenched against the backing rear successively in opposite directions, a lower sheet-metal blank bent to form a front and sides the front having a lower beaded Wire-edge and the sides havinginner tabs extending through and clenched against the backing rear, and a plate hinged below the lower blank and provided at its forward edge with a spring-catch for engaging the wired beading.
Signed at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, this 15th day of December, A. D. 1903.
HARRY S. ALEXANDER.
