GRAB-CAW- No. 804,504. Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed December 23, 1904. Serial No. 238,160.
To all whom, it muy cm1/(167%:
Be it known that we, ARTHUR A. SAALBAei-r and J AMES F. MAXWELL, citizens oi' the United States, residing in Baltimore, in the State oi' Maryland, have invented a new and useful Irnprovement in Crab-Cans, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention relates to improvements in sheet-metal cans, and more particularly to improvements in cans used for holding crabs or other like purposes.
Our invention consists in the novel construction of parts and devices and in the novel combinations of parts and devices herein shown and described.
In the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, Figure l is a"central Vertical section of a crab-can embodying our invention. Fig. 2 is a front elevation showing the bail in its nested or turned-down position for shipment or storage ofthe cans, and Fig. 3 is a detail section on line 3 3 of Fig. 2.
In the drawings, A represents a can or vessel of any suitable shape or size, and B is the loose-fitting slip-cover for closing the mouth of the can or vessel, having a deep langef; surrounding the upper end c o the can-body.
D is an elastic or spring-wire bail, provided with slightly upward inclined pivot ends (Ztl, which are inserted through holes 7) in the cover-flange and through corresponding holes 'a' a near the upper end of the can-body A, so that the spring-wire bail serves not only as a bail for the can, but also as a means for locking or holding the loose-fitting slip-cover B on the can. To prevent the bails from interfering with the packing and piling of the cans close together and one on top of another in shipment or storage, we provide the coverflange with a baillocking or holding integral projection 52, over which the wire bail will spring when it is turned down into its nested position, as illustrated in Fig. 2,.and which serves to lock or hold the bail securely in its nested position.
In operation to remove the cover from the can the wire bail is simply outwardly sprung and its pivotends removed from the pivotholes in the cover and can. In closing the can the cover is first applied, the pivot-holes in the cover being brought into registry with the pivot-holes in the can-body, and then the pivot ends of the bail inserted through the registering pivot-holes in the cover and canbody.
We claim- 1. The combination with a can-body having bail pivot-holes therein, oi'l a removable cover having an annular depending flange fitting over and surrounding the upper end of the can-body and provided with bail pivot-holes registering with the pivot-holes in the canbody, and a removable spring-wire bail having bent pivot ends inserted through said pivot-holes in said cover-flange and can-body, substantially as specified.
2. The combination with a can-body having bail pivot-holes` therein, of a cover having a fiange fitting over the can-body and provided with bail pivotholes registering with the pivot-holes in the can-body, and a spring'- wire bail having bent pivot ends inserted through said pivot-holes in said eover-iiange and can-body, said cover having' a projection for locking or holding the bail in its nested position, substantially as specified.
