ASH-RECEP'IACLE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 5, 1909.
Application filed January 31, 1908. Serial No. 413,596.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ADOLPH EICHLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dixon, Lee county, Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ash-Receptacles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to certain improvements in ash receptacles, and the like; and the objects and nature of the invention will be readily understood by those skilled in the art in the light of the following ex lanation of the accompanying drawings ill fistrating what I now consider my preferred embodiment from among other arrangements within the spirit and sco e of my invention.
An object of t e invention is to rovide comparatively simple, efficient, dura le and improved means, whereby ashes, and the like, can be dumped or otherwise discharged into a can or other receptacle without permitting objectionable escape of dust at the exterior of the receptacle and the cover or housing therefor.
The invention consists in certain novel features in construction and arrangements and combinations of arts as more fully and pfarticularly explained and set forth hereina ter.
Referring to the accom anying drawings:-Figure 1, is a front e evation of the receptacle showing the door or slide in opened position against the tension of its iprings and as though depressed by the foot.
ig. 2, is a vertical longitudinal section, extending through said slide and showing the same in normal closed position. Fig. 3, is a horizontal section taken in the lane of the line 33, Fig. 1. Fig. 4, is a etail elevation of the ash can.
In the specific example illustrated in the accompanying drawings, I show a cylindrical ash can 1, having an open top, and suitable fixed exterior side handles or hand holds 2, usually arranged a distance below the top ed p e of the can and diametrically opposite eac other. I show this can at its upper and lower ends, formed with exterior annular projecting beads, seams or enlar ements 3, whereby the can is braced an stiffened. I
The can 1, is inclosed within and forms the floor or bottom of a housing, casing or inclosure 4, formed by a cylindrical body having an open bottom or lower end, and closed at the upper end by a usually conical top or cap 5, around its annular lower edge fixedly secured to the annular upper edge of the cylindrical body by an annular seam or joint forming an annular exterior outwardly projecting or horizontal flange 6. The cyindrical body is in length greater than the length ofthe ash can or pan, for instance, in the example illustrated the cylindrical body is about twice the length or height of the cylindrical ash can. At an intermediate oint in its length, the cylindrical body is ormed with an internal annular downwardly and inwardly tapered flange or lip 7,
fixed around its u per outer end or edge to the cylindrical bo y. This flange is located and arranged to cover the top edge of the ash can and project down into the can, and is so formed as to receive the upper edge of the can in the upwardly reducing annularr space between the inner or under surface of t e flange and the inner surface of the cylindrical body. At its lower end, the cylindrical body can, if so desired, be formed with an exterior strengthening bead 8. The cylindrical body is formed to slip down on the exterior of the ash can in sliding engagement with the exterior heads 3, thereof with the lower end of the hody passing down snugly around the lower bead 3, and into enagement with the floor or ground, thereby orcing the upper end of the can snugly into the tapering recess under the internal flange 7.
Access to the interior of the casing, at a point above the open top of the can, is gained through a side opening 9, in the cylindrical body which opening is arranged above flange 7, and below the conical top of the casing. The lower end of this opening usually terminates at the upperend of said flange 7. Suitable means are provided to maintain said opening normally closed, and yet so as to permit quick and easy uncovering thereof when desired to discharge ashes or other material into the can. Forinstance, I show a vertically movable slide or door 10, for this purpose, and arranged on the exterior of the cylindrical body with its end ed es arranged under the exterior vertical gui e strips 11,
secured on the cylindrical body". I side op'ening below its upper end and above Ward movement of said door is limited by the exterior cross strip 12, under which the top edge of the door engages when said door is in its normal closed position. The door is yieldingly upheld against slop strip 12, and
in closed position, by one or more springs. For instance, I show two retracti've coiled springs 13, at their upper ends secured to the projecting flange 6, andat their lower ends secured to the lower portions of the opposite ends of the door.
Suitable means are provided whereby the door can be depressed to uncover the opening and thus held in opened position while the ashes are being emptied or discharged through the opening. For instance, I show the door, at the center of its lower portion formed with a rigid outwardly projecting foot piece or handle 14, on which the operator can place his foot and conveniently depress and open the door. On the removal of the foot, the door under the impulse of the springs, will quickly return to closed position, or if when the door has been opened a coal hod is inserted through the opening, the hod will hold the door open, and the springs will quickly close the door on the removal of the hod'. 1
The casing or'housing can be composed of any suitable material, such as sheet metal of I a suitable gage, and if so desired can be fitted applied to the can shown, and the casing taon any ash can adapted to receive the same. The casing can be readily lifted from and per flange and the exterior beads of the can form tight joints against the escape of dust around the exterior of the can, although I do not wish to limit-all features of my invention to the can shown.
The conical top of the casing tends to cause precipitation of the dust within the easing into the can, and tends to reduce escape thereof through the opening when the door is depressed, although I do not wish to limit myself to the conical formation of the casing top.
It is evident that various modifications might be resorted to in the forms and construction shown and hence I do not wish to limit myself to the exact disclosure hereof.
What I claim is 1. An ash rece' tacle, or the like, comrising a hollow e ongated casing having a 'ower open end and adapted to internally receive an ash can, said casing having a closed upper end, and an internal annular tapered flange in combination with an open top ash can adapted to extend removably into said casing and at itsupper end formed to fit the under surface of said flange and form a tightjoint therewith andaround its lower end adapted to fit snugly within the lower end of said casing to prevent escape of dust therefrom, said casing provided with a said flange and provided with a closure.
2. A device of the character, substantially asset forth, comprising an elongated easing open at the lower end and closed at the upper end and intermediate the ends thereof having a side opening, and provided with an internal annular downwardly and inwardly tapering flange arranged above the lower end of the casing and below said opening, and a door normally closing said opening in combination with an open top ash can down on the exterior of which said casing is adapted to removably and longitudinally fit with the upper edge of said can fitting between said flange and the wall of said casing to form a slip joint, the lower ends of the casing and of the can forming a slip joint, substantially as described.
3. A verticallyelongated open-bottom casing having a closed top forming a dust collecting chamber and adapted to receive and slide down on the exterior of an open top ash can, said casing intermediate its ends and below said chamber formed with a side opening, and a door normally held closing slip joint withsaid casing and having its upper end below said opening.
4. An elongated casing having an open lower end and an upwardly tapering closed top, said casing intermediate its ends having a side opening, whereby the interior chamber formed by the casing extends a distance above said opening, forming a top dust collection chamber above the open top of the ash can, a door normally closing said opening, and means yieldingly holding said door in closed position in combination with an open top ash can removably fitted within said casing and having its open top below said side opening.
5. An elongated casing having an open lower end and an elevated closed top, said casing intermediate its ends having a side open.- ing, whereby the interior chamber formed by the casing extends a distance above said opening, for the collection of dust, a door normally closing said opening, and means yieldingly holding said door in closed position in combination with an open top ash can removably and longitudinally arranged within said casing with its open top below said side opening, said can forming a slip joint with the interior surface of said casing to prevent passage of dust to the exterior thereof.
6. An ash can having exterior annular beads, a casing having an open lower end and adapted to removably and longitudinally fi-t down on said can and form slip joints with, said beads, and having an internal inter= mediate annular flange to snugly" fit within the top edge of said can,
closed door therefor.
7. An open top removable ash can, in combination with a vertically elongated casing to cover and removably receive said can, said casing extending above and forming a dust collection chamber over the open top of said can and formed with an internal tapered flange fitting within the upper end of the can and forming a slip joint therewith to prevent downward passage of dust around the can, said casing below its upper end and immediately above said flange having a side opening provided with a closure.
8. An open top removable ash can, in combination with a vertically elongated casslip down on the exterior of the can with the lower ends of the casing and can forming a slip joint, the casing intermediate its length provided with an annular internal downwardly tapered flange forming a socket beneath the flange in which the upper edge of the can snugly fits, said casing rovided with a side opening immediately a ove the flange and provided with a normally closed oor.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature, in presence of two witnesses.
