' COVER-RING.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed November 12, 1906. Serial No. 342,955.
Patented June18, 1907.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MARSHALL E. WooDs, a citizen of the United States, residing at Woodville, in the .county of Middlesex and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Cover-Ring, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to rings or handles for covers used on kettles, dishes, and various kinds of receptacles and it is especially adapted for those which are intended to be heated. As ordinarily constructed, covers for these receptacles are provided with flat rings which usually remain down in contact with the top of the cover and therefore cannot be readily grasped by the fingers when in a heated condition.
The principal object of this invention is to provide a device as a substitute for this ring which will necessarily always be in such condition that it can be grasped by the fingers in a convenient manner to lift the cover thereby dispensing with the use of a fork or the like.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings in which,
Figure 1 is a perspective view showing one form of receptacle provided with a cover having a ring constructed in accordance with the principles of this invention. Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view of a cover showing the ring in one extreme position. Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the ring in the other ex-.
treme osition, and Fig. 4 is a plan of the same s owing the ring in vertical position.
The cover a is provided with a pivot piece I) having a loop 12 extending up through a slot in the cover in the usual manner or it may be provided with any convenient substitute therefor. The ring a which engages the loop in the upper part of the piece I) is providedwith two arms 0' and'c for engaging the cover on opposite sides of the loop I) located in diflerent planes, connected by the main body or bowed portion of the ring 0 and located at an angle to the loop in the piece I).
The arms 0 and c terminate in ends 03 which are parallel with each other and ex- 02in such a way that these two arms extend.
from the ends at an angle to each other and in different planes as is perhaps most clearly indicated in Fig. 4. These arms curve upwardly when the ring is in its vertical position and with respect to a plane drawn vertically through the ends a they diverge from each other but looking at the device in the opposite direction, they first diverge from each other and then converge to meet the central bowed portion of the top of the ring a. Looked at from a position at right-anglesto that seen in Figs. 2 and 3 and alsoto that seen in Fig. 4 whenthe ring is up in as near a vertical position as possible, the appearance of the ring is substantially the same as that of the ordinary rings now in use but the plan I view Fig. 4, shows how the ring appears seen from above when it is in vertical position.
From this construction, as above described, it will be apparent that when the ring is turned to either extreme position on the pivots formed by its ends 0 one of the arms 0 and 0 will engage the top of the cover leaving the other arm extending upwardly at an angle from the cover. When turned over on its pivots the position of the two arms will be exactly reversed. In either case the portion of the ring between these two arms will also extend upwardly at an angle as seen in Fig. 1. Consequently, a finger may be inserted under the upwardly projecting portion of the ring in any position in which it may be placed and the cover easily lifted without any engagement with the top thereof. By this simple construction, the diificulty of using a flat ring on a cover of this character is entirely avoided and the cost of the device is not materially increased. 7
While I have illustrated and described a particular embodiment of my invention, it will be readily understood that changes in the form of construction may be made so long as the principle of the invention as expressed in the claims is retained.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I desire to secure byLetters-P atent is 1. A cover ring having two arms for en gaging the cover located at an angle to each other, whereby when one arm engages the cover the other will extend upwardly at an angle to the cover.
2. A pivoted cover ring or handle having two arms for engaging the cover on which it is mounted on opposite sides of the pivotal point of the ring, said arms being at an angle with respect to each other.
Too
3. A pivoted cover ring or handle having an arm for engaging the upper surface of the cover on which it ismounted, and an arm standing on an incline when the first named arm is flat on the surface of the cover.
4. A pivoted cover ring or handle having an arm for engaging the upper surface of the cover on which it is mounted, and an arm standing on an incline when the first named arm is fiat on the surface of the cover, and adaptedto lie fiat on the cover on the other side when the first named arm is in inclined position, said arms being connected together by the central portion of the ring.
- 5. A cover ring comprising a bowed portion, and two arms extending from the bowed inwardly extending ends on the arms located in line with each other and constituting a pivot for the ring.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
