ABRAHAM SEYS, OF GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN.
KETTLE-COVER;
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented April 16, 1907.
Application filed March 9,1906. Serial No. 305.156.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known'that I, ABRAHAM SEYs, a citizen of the United States, residing at Grand Rapids, in the county of Kent and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Kettle-Cover, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to covers for kettles and other utensils; and its object is to provide a device of this character which can be quickly adjusted to fit within receptacles of various sizes and which will be retained in position by eX anding and clamping on the inner surface the receptacle.
A still further object is to provide a device of this character which is sim le in construction and can be very quickly adjusted.
With the above and other objects in view the invention consists of certain novel features of construction and combinations of parts, which will be hereinafter more fully described, and pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings is shown the preferred form of the invention.
In said drawings, Figure 1 is a bottom plan view of the cover before the same is contracted. Fig. 2 is a top plan View thereof. Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the contracted disk. Fig. 4 is a side elevation thereof, the upper portion being shown in section; and Fig. 5 is a section on line 5 5, Fig. 4.
Referring to the figures by numerals of reference, 1 is a disk, of metal or other resilient material, having a central opening 2, and a slit 3 extends from this opening to the pe riphery of the disk. This slit forms, therefore, two 0 positely-disposed wings 4 and 5, and formed within the wing 4 at suitable distances from the slit are slots 6, through which project the angular ends 7 of a bowed handle 8. These ends are adapted to be inserted through the slots and then bent against the lower surface of the disk, as shown in Figs. 1 and 4. Additional slots 9 are formed in the wing 5 close to the slit 3 and receive the angular ends 11 of a handle 10, which is similar to the handle 8. Another slot '12 is formed in the wing 5 near one end of the handle 11, and this slot receives the angular end 12 of a guide-strip 13, which has a hooked end 14 overla ping the edge of the Wing 5 and spaced therefrom a sufficient distance to receive wing 4 when the cover is contracted: A stud 15 is looselymounted in the central opening 2 and has a knob 16 at one end,
while its other end is upset, as shown at 17, and this end and the knob serve to prevent the removal of the stud from the o ening 2 whether or not the disk is contracted? In using the cover the two handles 8 and 11 are grasped by the operator and pulled t0- ward each other. The wing 4 will therefore slide under the wing 5 and through the hooked guide 14. When the resultant cone reaches the desired proportions, the device is inserted into the receptacle to be covered thereby, and as soon as the handles 8 and 11 are released the cover will expand against the sides of the receptacle and will be held in position by frictional contact therewith. If desired, the cover may be maintained in a cone shape by forming a lug 18 upon the lower face of the wing 4 in such a position as to contact with the guide-hook 14 and prevent the Wing 4 from entirely Withdrawing.
from the wing 5. This lug can either be struck from the wing 4 or can be produced by dropping a small quantity of solder thereon.
. I have designated the lug by a dotted line in Fig. 3.
A cover such as herein described can be constructed at comparatively slight cost and can be used for a large number of receptacles of different sizes. The handles are very simple in construction and can be readily attached, and by providing the guide 14 the overlapping wings are always retained in proper relation to each other. It is to be understood that the stud 15 does not fit tightly within the central opening 20, but allows said opening to be contracted during the adjustment of the cover.
If desired, a suitable number of apertures 19 may be formed within the disk. These apertures may extend over the entire surface of the disks or can be grouped together, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. A cover 20 may be pivoted on the disk for the purpose of closing the apertures when the same are grouped in the manner shown.
What is claimed is A contractible cover for kettles and the like comprising a disk having a slit extending thereinto from its periphery, said slit terminating in an enlarged central aperture, a knob, a stem projecting therefrom and through the aperture, a frusto-conical enlargement upon the stem and overlapping the wall of the aperture to prevent the withdrawal of the stem therefrom, a slit within the disk near the periphery thereof} a guardsaid ends bearing upon the opposite face of 10 strip extending through the slit and bearing the disk.
