Description

UNITED STATES ROSWELL GLEASON,& SONS, 0F DOBUHESTER, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNEES I' PATENT Orriciso OF B. GLEASON, JB.
IMPROVED TABLEv-CASTER.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 23,218, dated March 8, 1859; Reissue No. S7 l., dated December 27, 1859.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, RoswELL GLEAsoN, R. GLEAsoN, Jr., and EDWARD GLEAsoN, comprisingtheirm ot' R. GLEASON and SONS,
- did obtain, as assignees of R. GLI-JASON, Jr.,
stand, caster, and bell, as hereinafter fully shown and described, whereby either article may be used separately or the whole or cer-` tain parts in combination, as hereinafter described.
To enable those skilled in the art to fully understand and construct the invention, we will proceed to describe it.
A, Figure l, representsabase, in which a vertical rod, B, is placed centrally, and C is a circular basin or dish, which is provided with a central tube, a, through which the rod B passes, the tube a extending nearly to the top of the rod B, as shown olearlyin Fig. l. The basin' or dish C is allowed to rotate freely on the rod B, the bottom of the basin or dish resting or bearing on the top .b of the base A, a sufficient bearing-surface being allowed for such purpose. Within the dish or basin C a series of vertical rods, c, are secured, on which egg-cups d are placed, said rods keeping the cups in proper position; and at thecenter of the dish or basin, encompassing the base of the tube a, an annular chamber, e, is formed to receive the bowls of spoons f, the upper ends of which are secured in a circular rack, g, attached to the upper part of the tube a.
The above parts, which are all shown in Fig. 1, constitute a revolving egg-stand, and, if used separately, a handle, D, may be screwed into the upper end of the rod B, as shown in red, Fig. 1.
E is a circular inverted dish having a cylindrical cham ber, F, at its center, said chamber being considerably smaller in diameter than the dish E, so as to afford space all around it to hold cruets G, which are placed in annular holders H, secured to the upper part of the chamber F.
The bottom of the dish E is provided with feet h, and to the upper part of the chamber lF a handle, l, is attached, as shown clearly Within the upper part of the chamberF a bell, J, is secured, the part of the chamber which immediately encompasses said bell being perforated, as shown at i. The bell is secured in proper position by a tube, j, through which a screwrod, k, passes. 0n the tube j a hammer-rod, l, is secured by a pivot, m, and n is a spring which is connected with the hammer-rod, as shown at o.
K is arod which passes horizontally through the chamber F, and has a wiper, p, on its inner end, within the chamber F, the outer end ot' said rod having a handle, q, placed on it. The bell J, it will be seen, is sounded Vby turning the rod K, the wiper p of which, in connection with the spring n, actuates the hammer-rod l.
The parts which are shown in Fig. 2 and latterly described constitute the caster and bell, and may be used detached from the eggst-and, if desired. Then used in connection with the egg-stand, the handle D is detached from the upper end of the rod B and the caster placed over the egg-stand, the screw-rod 7c being screwed into the upper end of the rod B by means of any suitable handle, L. The inverted dishior basin E of the caster serves as a cover for the eggstand, concealing it ,and its appurtenances from view, and the height, and the same may be said of an eggstand. A f
By this invention one base is used for both the egg-stand and caster, and as the former comparatively is but rarely used, it serves as a superior revolving base for the caster, which is almost invariably used. Many, therefore,
who would not goto the expense of provid! 3. The combination ofthe caster, eggstnnd,
in g themselves with an egg-stand would lpurand table-bell, substantially as described. chase the several parts combined at a slight advance on the cost of a caster alone. ROSWELL GLEASON.
What We claim as new, Iand desire to secure R. GLEASON, JR. by Letters Patent, is- EDWARD GLEASON.
