HINGE FOR THE LIDS OF VESSELS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 30, 1906.
Application filed January 6, 1906; Serial No. 294,948.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN H. WILSON, a
I citizen of the United States, residing at New Kensington, in the county of Westmoreland and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Hinge for the Lids of Vessels, of which the following is a specification.
The object of the present invention is to provide simple and improved means for openmg and closing the lid of a receptacle by manipulation of an ordinary swinging bailhand-le. as commonly employed for carrying cooking vessels.such, for instance, as teakettles.
It is furthermore designed to embody the invention in the nature of an attachment capable of being applied to any form of teaettle without requiring any change or alteration therein.
' present invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter more fully described, shown in the accompanying drawings, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims, it being understood that changes in the form, proportion, size, and minor details may be made within the scope of the claims without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a conventional form of tea-kettle equipped with the attachment of the present invention. Fig. 2 is a fragmentary sectional view taken through the hinged connection between the body of the kettle and the lid or cover with the latter closed. Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the lid entirely 0 en in full lines and partially open in dotted lmes. Fig. 4 is a detail pers ective view of the stationary member of t e attachment for connection with the body of the kettle. Fig. 5 is a 'detailperspective view of the movable hinge member.
portion of the rim of the lid of the cover,
Fig. 6 is a fragmentary view of a showing the rib thereof for engagement with the present hinge.
Similar numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in all of the figures of the drawings. 5
The present invention has been shown a plied to a conventional form of tea-kett e, which is designated 1 in the drawings, said kettle having the usual form of removable lid 2, provided with an ordinary depending annular rim?) to fit within the opemng 4 in the top of the kettle, throu h which the latter is filled with water. The kettle is equipped with the usual upstanding ears 5, having attaching-flanges 6 secured to the body of the kettle, and there being a conventional form of bail-handle 7, having its extremities hook into the perforations 8 in the ears, thereby forming a pivotal connection between the handle and the ears to ermit of the handle being swung back and orth over the top of the kettle.
In carrying out the present invention ,1
propose to provide a stationary hinge memer upon the body of the kettle and to mount a swinging hinge member upon the station ary member so as to engage with and constitute a swinging support for the lid 2. The stationary hinge member 9 is located opposite the spout of thekettle and is preferably which is bent outwardly at substantially right angles to the wing 12, the portions of the wing at opposite sides of the tongue 13 beingbent into alined eyes 14, which are spaced to receive the eye 10 of the stationary hinge member, there being a pintle pin or pivot 15 assed through the eyes terminally upset or eaded in any suitable manner, so as to prevent endwisedisplacement of the pin. The other end of the blank is bent downwardly and thence upwardly, so as to form a hook 16, the upper extremity of which is bowed outwardly to form a bead 17, extending transversely across the outer side of the hook. An upstanding projection 18 is cleft from the parts 1 1 and 16 of the movable hinge member and then bent upwardly agalnst the wing 12, the length of the roject10n being suflicient to extend a suita le distance above the top of the wing.
As best shown in Figs. 2 and 3 of the drawlngs, when the movable hinge member is assembled upon the stationary member the hook 16 is received within the opening 4 in the top of the kettle in such a position as to receive the rim 3 of the lid, whereby the lid and movable hinge member are connected for simultaneous swinging movements. The edge of the opening 4 is of course notched, as at M, to receive the hooked wing 16, and thereby avoid binding of the rim 3 at its connection with the hinge. When the handle 7 is swung over toward the hinge and strikes the part 13 the movable hinge member and the lid will be swung open, as illustrated in Fig. 3 of the drawings, and will be held open by the-weight of the handle bearing upon the trip projection 13. In this position the other trip projection 18 will lie above and in the upward ath of the bail, wherefore when the bail is elevated it will strike the projection 18, and thereby swing the lid closed. It will now be understood that when the handle 7 is swung away from the hinge it does not open the lid, but when swung toward the hinge it strikes the projection 13, and thereby automatically opens the lid in a very simple, prompt, and eflicient manner.
A very important feature of the present invention resides in the fact that the lid merely rests in the seat 16 of the movable hinge member and may be readily removed therefrom without disconnecting any fastening devices whenever it becomes necessary to entirely remove the lidfor instance, when filling the kettle from a faucet or the like.
To prevent accidental disconnection of the lid and the hinge, the rim 3 of the lid is provided with an internal rib or bead 19 to fit the body 17 on the seat portion 16 of the movable hinge member. When placing the lid upon the vessel, it is arranged with the bead 19 at one side of the hinge, and then the lid is turned to move the bead 19 endwise into the bead 16, a reverse movement of course being necessary to disconnect the lid from the hinge.
From the foregoing description it will be understood that the attachment of the present invention may be applied to any ordinary vessel without requiring any alteration therein, as the hinge is located slightly at one side of one of the ears for connecting the the hinge.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is 1. A vessel having an opening in the top thereof, a swinging bail-handle, a stationary hinge member carried by the vessel, a movable hinge member swung upon the stationary hinge member, one end of the movable hinge member being provided with an upstanding hook constituting a seat normally lying in the opening of the vessel, the other end of the movable hinge member having a trip projection extending rearwardly therefrom and in the downward path of the handle, an upstanding trip projection cleft from the movable member of the hinge and disposed in the upward path of the handle, and a lid having a portion removably received within the seat of the movable hinge member.
2. A vessel having a hinge formed with a beaded hook, a lid having a rim form ed with a rib, said rim being adapted to be fitted into the hook of said hin e and rotated to interlock the rib with the beaded portion of said hinge, a handle pivotally connected with said vessel, and means operated by said handle for opening and closing said lid.
3. A vessel having a hinge provided with a beaded hook, and a lid having a rim formed. with a rib, said rim being adapted to be fitted into said hook and rotated to engage the rib with the beaded portion of the hook.
4. A vessel having a swinging handle, a hinged lid, and a pair of trip projections on said lid, arranged in the path of movement of said swinging handle for opening and closing the lid.
5. A vessel having a swinging handle, a hinged lid, and a pair of angularly-arranged trip projections connected with said lid, and arranged in the path of movement of said pizl inging handle for opening and closing the 6. A vessel having a swinging handle, a lid, a hinge having one leaf connected with the vessel and the other leaf connected with the lid, the latter leaf having a pair of rigid trip projections arranged in the path of movement of the swinging handle for opening and closing the lid.
7. A vessel having a swinging bail-handle, a stationary hinge member, a movable hinge member connected with said stationary hinge member and having a pair of angularly-disposed trip projections arranged in the path of movement of said swinging bail- In testimony that I claim the foregoing as handle, said movable hin e member also my own I have hereto afiixed mysignature having a beaded hook, an a lid having a in the presence of two witnesses.
