FLY-CATCH ER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 5, 1905.
Application filed December 5, 1904. Serial No. 235,557.
To /1.// 11.71.0112, [6 711,11. (Oil/(H3770:
Be it known that I, OswALp ZHCNIGR, a citizen of the Empire of (irermany, residing in of a device of this type which will be effective to a maximum degree and of which the used parts may be readily replaced by fresh parts, so that said device can be of service for an indefinite length of time, and for this purpose the invention consists in the novel features and combinations of parts to be hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, illustrative of one embodiment of the invention, Figure l is a perspective view of my improved flycatcher shown as suspended from a gas-arm. Fig. 2 is a perspective view on a larger scale. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the fly-catcher with the cover removed in order to show the interior thereof. Fig. 4: is a front view, also with the cover removed for showing the interior construction of the fly-catcher; and Fig. 5 is a horizontal transverse section on line 5 5, Fig. at.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
Referring to the drawings, (1 denotes the shell or casing of the improved fly-catcher, which is preferably made of sheet metal and of cylindrical shape, as shown, said shell being provided with a tightlytitting cover a. Small perforations extending through the cover and the rear face of the shell (1 in proximity to the perimeter thereof constitute means for attaching a suspension-wire a or other suitable device by means of which the shell can be suspended from a chandelier, gasarm, or other support. A receptacle for flyglue or other adhesive is placed in the lower part of the shell (1 and is also preferably formed of sheet metal and of triangular shape, as shown, being provided with a rear face 6, which is placed against the rear face of the shell 1/ and sides 1/, the upper side being extended diametricz lly across the shell, as shown in Figs. 3 and at. The n p per side of the adhesivereceptacle is provided intermediately with a recess or slot 6, the sides of which are bent back upon each other, as shown in Fig. i, in order to prevent the cutting of a strip 0 of paper or other suitable material which is folded in the upper portion of the shell above the adhesivercceptacle and passed downwardly through said slot 6. The lower sides of the adhesive-receptacle are spaced apart at the lower apex thereof in order to form a passage for the strip a, and said sides are bent laterally at their ends, shown in Fig. I, in order to engage a recess (Z cut in from the front edge of the shell in such a manner as to abut against the periphery of the shell and securely hold the adhesive-receptacle in position. In this manner the adhesive-receptacle can be rcadil y inserted into the shell when the cover it is removed. The cover is provided with a small recess registering with the recess (Z in the edge of the shell, so that the strip 1' is inclosed upon all sides. The slot 7) and recess (1 are vertically alined with each other, so that the strip 0 can be pulled downwardly from the upper portion of the shell and in passing through the adhesive-receptacle be coated with an adhesive substance 7r, such as fly-glue or the like, contained therein.
\Vhen the fly-catcher is desired for use, the paper strip is pulled out for from six to eight inches, it being coated while being drawn in outward direction by the adhesive fly-glue. The flies being partly attracted by the smell of the adhesive will alight on the same and soon cover both sides of the strip. The same is then cut off from time to time and a new section of strip coated with the adhesive drawn out until the same is again covered with flies, and so on. \Vhen the entire strip of paper in the shell is used up, the latter can be opened and another strip of paper inserted into the same. In this way the device can be used until the entire quantity of adhesive fly-glue is exhausted, and when this takes place the adhesive-receptacle can be readily refilled.
The shell may be linished in ornamental manner by printing suitable designs in colors on the same. It may be made of cylindrical, square, or other shape and furnishes an inexpensive yet very effective fly-catcher that can be used for a considerable length of time and that is less objectionable than the well-known fly-papers in general use, which latter are not only unsightly, but are frequently in the way, drop on the floor, &e.,
' receptacle in said shell provided with bentup side walls, the lower side walls having adacent outwardly-bent end portions forming a strip-guiding throat, said end portions being retained by said recess, a strip of suitable material supported on said adhesive-receptacle and passed downwardly through the same and through said strip-guiding throat,
and a cover for said shell provided with a recess in its inner edge registeringwith the recess in said shell and engaging the outwardlybent ends of said strip-guiding throat.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention 1 have signed my name in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
