Description

tuitd getaway @wat @twine P. ASCHANCK, OFMATAWAMNEW JERSEY, AssIGNoR To HIM- lSELF AND R. L.' MERRITT, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
Lene/rs Patent No. 92,754, dated .my 20, 1869.
IMPROVEMENT IN DtrsT-PAN.
The Schedule referred'to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
.proved dust-pan, which shall be so constructed as to be stronger and better adapted for use than those heretofore used. A
' The invention consists in providing a stiiiening'- plate for the mouth, to prevent it from bending upward, and in so shaping the. bottom, that when resting on the iioor, the edge will t closely to the Hoor, and admit of sweeping the dust into it without rcquifing the heel to be held up by one hand to bring the edge down, as `must 'be done with those now in use.
Figure 1 represents a section of' my improved dustpan, taken on the line x a: of fig. 2, and
IFigure 2 represents a plan View. l
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
The dust-pans', as now constructed, very soon bend up at the mouth, so that they require to be held up at the heel by the hand, while sweepingr into them from the ioor, which requires the sweeper to bend over in :nldlncomfortable position, and permits of' the use of one hand onlyt'or sweeping, the other being occupied in holding the pan.
' I place on the upper surface of the bottom plate C', at the mouths, stii'ening-plates A, forxping an acute angle therewith, andspanning the same, and extending rearward more or less, as required, to impart the requisite stiffness, and bending down and joining the bottom at B.
It is desirable,` for the sake of econolnizing material, aswell as time, in manufacture, that the bottom or stiffening-plate C', of the dust-pan, should be straight from one edge or side to the other, so that a single sheet of tin may be employed for that part,
without any preparatory bending, In that case,l
however, the front edge would not iit snugly to the carpet or iioor as might be in most instances requisite. To obviate this objection, I provide studs C, at the rear edge onheel, thereby slightly elevating the saine.
Dust-pans constructed in this way afford better facility for. sweeping the dust into them, permitting the use oT both hands for the purpose, and they hold the dust better after being swept in, the wall at B preventing it from escaping.
Having thus described my invention, WhatI claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The strengthening-plate A B, in combination with plate O' and lugs C, as shown and described.
Thel above specification of Iny invention signed by me, this 5th day of June, 1869.
