Patented Oct. 12, 1909.
Application led July 9, 190.8, Serial No. 442,680. Renewed Karen t2, 1909. Serial No. 483,028.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, HUGH J. KINGsLEY, citizen of the United States, residing at Rutland, county of Rutland, and State of Vermont, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Horns, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein tothe accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to a horn or megaphone, and particularly to such a structure formed from a sheet or blank.
The invention' has for an object to provide a sheet havin inclined sfide edges, one of which is provi ed with an inset recess and the other with a projecting interlocking tongue. The blank may also be provided with fold line indications upon its sides and top so as to permit the folding of the ed es upon the body thereof to provide a dou le thickness of material thus stiflening the sheet for use as a fan. Other and further objects and advantages of the invention will be hereinafter fully set forth and the novel features thereof defined by the appended claims.
In the drawing Figure 1 is a plan of the blank; Fig. 2 is a perspective of the blank rolled into a megaphone.l F ig. 3 is a plan thereof when folded as a fan.
'Like numerals refer to like parts in the several views of the drawing.
The numeral 10 designates the blank which may be of any desired material of sudicient stiffness and adapted to be readil rolled or folded, for instance, cardboar This blank is adapted to yreceive any character of printed matter, for instance, at 11 a title and directions for use, or a scoring space for games, as indicated at 12, while the remainder of the blank may bel utilized for advertising s aces as indicated at 13. This blank is provlded with its side edges 1li inclined toward each other and is preferably or" se ental form although -not necessarily so. hen of segmental form the free edge 15 'is curved and the lower edge 16 also curved. The sides 141 are provided with any character of interlocking means, a desirable form comprising the ton e 17 vupon one side and adapted to enter the recess 18 at the opposite edge and to be held b the lugs 19 thereofen aging the extended ugs 20 on the tongue. en the parts are so engaged a tube is produced comprising a frustum of a cone particularly adapted for use as a megaphone. The blank is also provided at its side edges with fold line indications 21 and at the bottom with a similar fold line indication 22 in order to adapt the blank tobe used as a fan by bending the sides edges 14 of the blank so as to carry the interlocking means into engagement with the body thereof, and stiifenlng the lower portion by folding a part thereof against the body of the blank thus bracingl the edges ofthe blank for use as a fan rendering it suiiiciently rigid for use for that purpose.
It will be seen that theinvention comprises a simple blank which may be formed ncard, and to receive advertising matter if so desired, While it may also bev readily rolled and secured to form a megaphone or the edges thereof folded to pro uce a fan thus adapting it for a plurality of uses inconnection with outdoor games or sports. The simplicity of th'e invention permits its very economical manufacture and ready adoption for the use desired and combines the functions of several articles in a single device, as whether used as a megaphone or fan the printed 'matter thereon will be clearly visible and can be utilized.
Having described my invention and set forth its merits, what l claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. As an article of manufacture, a horn comprising a sheet having side edges 1nclined toward each other one of said edges being provided with a recess extendingA 1n- `ward from the outer line thereof; and a pipg'ecting tongue upon the opposite edge cooperating With said recess.
2. As an article of manufacture, a horn comprising asheet having side edges inclined toward each other, one of said edges being provided with a recess extending 1nn'ard from the outer iine thereof, a projecting'tongue upon the opposite edge coperating With said recess, and fold line indications uponsaid sheet at the inner side of said' tongue and recess to guide the fold of said edges upon the body of the sheet.
3. As an article of manufacture, a horn comprising a sheet having side edges inclined toward each other one of which is provided with an inwardly extending recess' having lugs at its opposite ends, and a projecting tongue upon the coperating edge havin@` at its opposite ends interlocking lugs.
4. i s an article of manufacture, a horn comprising a sheet having curved upper and lower edges and side edges inclined toward each other, one of said side edges being provided with .an inset recess having lugs at its opposite ends, the cooperating slde edge beesame ing formed with a projecting tongue having 10 copei'ating interlocking lugs at the ends thereof.
In testimony Whereol l afx my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
