COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Pots, Pans, Jugs, and like Vessels.
We ALFRED CHAMPION of 112 Shardeloes Road New Cross in the County of
Kent Electrician and HENRY RICHARD JACKSON of 514 Lower Woolwich Road
Charlton in the County of Kent Sand Merchant, do hereby declare the nature of
this invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement :-
Our invention relates to improvements in the construction of pots, pans, jugs and
like vessels and in lids or covers for the same, and consists in forming a screw
thread on the lids or covers, and a corresponding screw thread on the necks or tops
of the vessels, so that the lid or cover can be fastened on by screwing.
In order that our invention and the method of applying the same may be more
readily understood, we have appended the accompanying sheet of drawings, in
which
Fig. 1. is a sectional elevation of a teapot having a round thread A. formed in
the neck B. the cover C. having a corresponding thread D, thus enabling the
cover C. to be fastened securely on the pot.
Fig. 2. illustrates the same result attained by using a V-thread, K. is the thread
formed in the neck L, the lid or cover M, having a corresponding thread N.
We do not confine ourselves to the methods illustrated by the drawings, we
may form the screw thread either inside or outside of the neck of the vessel,
and similarly on the lid or cover to fit, we may also use a V-shape, round or
square thread, and of any suitable pitch.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be formed we declare that what we
claim is-
A screw thread formed in or on the necks or tops of pots, pans, jugs, and like

page_text: vessels, and a corresponding thread on the lids or covers for the same, substantially
as and for the purposes herein described, and shewn by the appended drawings.
Dated this 30th day of June 1892.
