CORPORATION OF INDIANA.
VEGETABLE-CUTTER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 78 7 ,614, dated April 18, 1905.
Application filed October 28, 1904. Serial No. 230,332.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ROBERT L. DORSEY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Indianapolis, in the county of Marion and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Vegetable-Cutters, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to that class of vegetable-slicers in which a receptacle for the ar- 10 ticle to be sliced is arranged to reciprocate upon the structure carrying the slicing-knife.
Said invention consists in an improved construction of the receptacle in question whereby the same can be made rapidly and cheaply I 5 as well as accurately and strongly. Its particular features are a species of dovetail joints, by which the ends and sides are united, and strips which are inserted in slits formed in the sides, which when in place extend transversely across the joints in question.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, which are made a part hereof and on which similar reference characters indicate similar parts, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a vegetable-slicer embodying areceptacle constructed in accordance with my present invention; Fig. 2, a transverse vertical sectional view of the utensil, showing the receptacle partly in end elevation and partly in section; and Fig. 3, a view, partlyin under side plan and partly in horizontal section, of the box or receptacle in which my present invention resides.
This utensil as a whole is composed of the usual body 21, the sides of which are provided with grooves or ways 22, in which the receptacle is mounted to slide as it reciprocates back and forth over the knife 23, which knife is mounted in suitable relation to the floor thereof and to said grooves or ways, all as will be readily understood.
The receptacle for containing the vegetable to be sliced is composed of the sides and 26, the ends 27 and 28, and a followerboard 29, having a suitable handle 30. These in a general way are quite similar in form and arrangement to the corresponding parts of utensils heretofore made by me, the invention residing wholly in the particular construction. The sides 25 and 26 each have two vertical grooves out across their facing sides near the ends. These grooves are straight or square on the outer sides and inclined or dovetailed on the inner sides, thus producing what may be termed half-dovetail grooves. I am not only able to produce grooves of this kind much more rapidly and cheaply than it is possible to produce ordinary complete dovetail grooves, (for reasons not necessary here to state,) but this form gives much greater strength at the corners without the necessity of extending the sides a considerable length beyond where the grooves are out. If said grooves were undercut on the'outer sides, and thus made complete dovetail grooves, it is obvious that the strength would be much reduced and the outer corners thereby rendered much more liable to be split in assembling the parts. By cutting the grooves straight in on these outer sides I preserve the entire strength of the wood from the point of the cut to the extreme end. This, as before stated and as is clearly obvious, considerably reduces the necessary economy of material. The ends of the end pieces 27 and 28 are correspondingly formed and when assembled fit into these grooves, as shown. Near the bottom sides of the receptacle after the sides and ends are put together I form slits, (preferably by running the partly-formed receptacles over a suitable saw, which cuts in through the sides and somewhat into the ends,) as shown. Into these slits so formed I insert strips 31 and 32, which not only form ribs which rest in the ways or grooves 22in the base, but also, by extending across the entire locking-joints or half-dovetail connections between the sides and ends of the receptacle, lock said sides and ends together and efiectually prevent them from slipping apart. Then by driving ina few small nails 33 through the small portions of the sides below the grooves and through these strips and up into the remaining portions of the sides the whole is firmly secured together and the from the sides into the ends is dispensed with.
I thus, with the exception of the few small nails just spoken of, make the receptacle completely interlocking in itself. The strips 31 and 32 may also extend in and form stops against which the corners of the followerboard will rest when it has reached its lowermost position, and be thus prevented from coming in contact with the knife. The corners of said follower-board are cut away somewhat, as shown where one corner is broken away in Fig. 2, so that when this point is reached the bottom of the board will be at the same level as the bottom of the strips.
Having thus fully described my said invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A polygonal receptacle consisting of interengaging sides and a locking-strip secured to one of said sides at an angle thereto and projecting sidewise therefrom, said strip entering the adjacent end of another side whereby said strip forms a projecting guide-lip and a lock to prevent separation of the two sides in one direction.
2-. A polygonal receptacle consisting of a pair of substantially parallel sides and con necting interlocking sides, of a pair of strips secured to two of the sides and let into adj acent ends of the connecting sides to prevent transverse se aration thereof, said strips lying at an ang e to the several sides and projectin sidewise from two of them to form guideips for the receptacle.
3. A polygonal receptacle consisting of a pair of parallel sides and interlocking connecting sides, the said parallel sides being narrower than the connected sides, guidestrips of greater width than the thickness of the parallel sides attached to the edges of said substantially parallel sides and let into the adjacent ends of the connecting sides, finishing-strips arranged in alinement with the narrower sides to complete the same beyond the locking-strip, and fastening means extending through said finishing-strips and locking-strips into the narrow sides, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal, at Indianapolis, Indiana, this th day of October, A. D. 1904.
