Description
tlniml l ,t/tetra JOSEPH THEODOR SCHMITT, GF BROGKLYN, NEW YORK. Letters Patent No. 83,797, dated November 3, 1868.
IMPROVEMENT IN PICTURE-FRAMES.
The Schedule'referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom fit may concern.:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH Tnnonon Sennrrrfr, ofthe city oi' Brooklyn, in the county of Kings, in the State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Frames for Pictures and other articles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable those skilled in the art to make and'use the same, reference being had tothe accompanying drawing, forming part of this speciticatiou, in which drawing- Figure 1 represents a plan or face View of this invention.
Figure 2 is a transverse section thereof.
Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.
This invention consists in a frame for pictures or other articles, made wholly ot glass, with the central transparent piece or service-plate formingan integral part ofthe frame, in such a manner that the labor of cuttiu,y the plate and fitting it into the frame is saved, and a cheap, neat, and durable frame for pictures, looking-glasses, and other articles, is obtained.
The invention consists, also, in a continuous shell, made of glass, or other transparent material, and forniing, on its under surface,'a hollow space, for the reception of flowers or other ornaments, in such a manner that the appearance of the frame can be readily iinproved, and ornaments, corresponding to the character of the picture to be framed, can be introduced with.
little trouble or expense.
A represents a frame for pictures or other articles, said`frame being,` made of glass, or other transparent material. This frame may either be cast or produced in any other desirable manner, and the serviceplate D may be made solid with the frame,as shown in the thawing, or it may be detached therefrom.
When said service-plate is made solid with the frame, the time ordinarily required for cutting out said plate and fitting it is saved.
In practice, I propose to make my frame as follows:
I ina-ke a suitable mould, of cast-iron or other metal, and place on it a plate of glass, cut out to the proper shape, and heat both together, until the glass becomes flexible, and sinks down into the mould.
By these means I obtain a continuous hollow shell, which forms the frame, and which may be made solid with or detached from the service-plate.
A frame of this kind is preferable to the solid glass frame, because it is lighter, and, furthermore, I 'am enabled to introduce into the hollow space, c, of the shell, flowers, pictures, or other ornaments appropriate in their character to the picture to be framed.
a Having thus described my invention,
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The hollow continuous shell A, made of glass or other transparent material, and leaving a hollow space, c, for the reception of iiowers or other ornaments, substantially as described.
This specification signed byme, this 11th day of February, 186.8.
