COAL-SCUTTLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 782,678, dated February 14, 1905. Application filed July 25 1904:. Serial No. 218,128.
To @ZZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALEXANDER S. MATHERS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Cora,
in the county of Cascade, State of Montana,
have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Coal-Scuttles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and eX- act description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention 'relates to coal-scuttles; and it has for its object to provide means for directing the coal in its passage from the hod into a stove and which said means will be moved automatically into and out of active position 'as the bail of the hod is raised and lowered.
In the drawings forming a portion of this specification, and in which like numerals of reference indicate similar parts in the several views, Figure lis a perspective view showing the hod with the guides in active position. Fig. i2 is a top plan view showing the bail'in lowered position and the guides in their inactive positions.
Referring now to the drawings, there is shown a coal-scuttle comprising a body portion 5 of common form and projecting above the side edges of which are the ears 7, which are perforated to receive the ends of the bail 8. The ears may consist of staples, as illustrated, engaged through the sides of the body i of the scuttle and clenched against the inner faces thereof. Pivoted against the innerface of each side of the spout of the scuttle is aV ally `engaged with loops 14:, formed by bending the wire which constitutes the bail, the loops being formed near to the ends of the bail. With this construction when the bail is in erect or active position, as shown in Fig. l of the drawings, the loops of the bail are at their maximum elevation, which is such that the rods slant downwardly in the directions of the pivots of the plates and correspondingly hold the upperl edge portions of the plates, the rods at this time being contained within the tubular guides of the plates with .the exception of the eyes of the rods.
When the bail is swung down upon the body Vof the scuttle, the rods are gradually drawn from the tubular guides and at the same time are swung downwardly, so that the pivoted plates are lowered. l/Vith this construction it will be seen that as the bail is raised and lowered the adjacent ends of the guide-plate are correspondingly moved.
What is claimed ism 1. The combination with a receptacle having a pivoted bail, of guide-plates pivoted at one end to the receptacle and movable with their opposite ends above and below the sides of the receptacle, and rods slidably engaged longitudinally of the plates and pivotally connected with the bail above the pivots of the latter.
2. The combination with a scuttle having a pivoted bail, of a plate pivoted at its forward end against the inner face of each side of the spout of the scuttle, each of said plates having a tubular longitudinal guide at its upper edge, and rods slidably engaged in said guides and pivotally connected with the bail.
In testimony whereof I aix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
ALEXANDER S. MATHERS.
