Improvements in the Construction of Kitchen Fenders.
1, WILLIAM PATERSON EOLIN, of Crown Works, Sowerby Bridge, in the
County of York, Hardware Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this
invention to be as follows:-
The object of my invention is to cheapen the construction of kitchen fenders
by dispensing with rivets in the front top bar. When constructing fenders having
spindles in front of them I place under the top rail of the fender a liner or
an additional rail made secure by a branch from the foot of the fender. This
additional liner is slotted at suitable distances apart and underneath the slotted
liner 1 place the head of a bolt or spindle which spindle receives tho usual
ornamental brass barrel or tube.
In constructing kitchen fenders with a plain metal front I again dispense with
rivets in the front top bar. In this case I employ an additional liner slotted at
suitable distances apart into which slot I place the foot of a stay by which
means the rivets are dispensed with.
By dispensing with rivets in the top bar of fenders a considerable saving is
effected, as there is no liability of loose rivets becoming drawn or detached from
the top rail of the fender.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in the Construction of Kitchen Fenders.
I, WILLIAM PATERSON EGLIN, of Crown Works, Sowerby Bridge, in the
County of York, Hardware Manufacturer, 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 :-
The object of my invention is to cheapen the construction of kitchen fenders by
dispensing with etay rivets in the front top bar. When constructing fenders
having spindles in front of then I placo under the top rail of the fender a liner or
an additional rail made secure by a branch from the foot of the fender. This
additional liner is slotted at suitable distances apart and underneath the slotted
liner 1 place the head of a bolt or spindle which spindle receives the usual
ornamental brass barrel or tube.
Such being the nature and object of my invention, I will now proceed to describe
the same more fully, and for that purpose make reference to the accompanying
sheets of drawings, wherein Fig. 1 is plan view of my improved construction of
kitchen fender which is made in two or three tiers counected together by bolts or
spindles A surrounded by an ornamental brass barrel or tube B.
The top bar of the fender is represented at C and the lower bar of the fender
nt D.
Instead of rivetting the head E of the spindle A to the top bar Cas hitherto, I
employ an additional bar or liner F made secure by a brauch G forming part of
حيم

page_text: the foot of the fender H. This liner permits me to put the head E of the
spindle A between the top bar and the liner F as clearly shewn in Fig. 3 whereby
rivetting of the spindle A to the top bar is dispensed with and its consequent
inconveniences of being "drawn" or becoming detached. The liner F.is slotted
as shewa at in Figs. 1 and 2 so that when the head, E of the spindle A is once
inserted it cannot accidentally be displaced. The top bar C is held in position by
rivets a which are passed through the branch G and the horizontal bars J and also
through liner F as shewn in Fig. 6.
In constructing kitchen fenders with a plain metal front 1 again dispense with
stay rivets in the front top bar.
In this case I employ an additional liner F slotted or recessed at suitable distances
apart, and into each of these slots 1 place the foot J of a stay K by which means
rivets are dispensed with.
This part of my invention is shewn in Figs. 4 and 5 where the former figure
represents the back of a fender and the latter figure a cross section.
L represents the plain metal front of the kitchen fender and C the top bar.
K represents one stay fastened to the back of the plate L and the upper end of
the said stay is bent or made with a foot J and inserted into a slot in the liner
or additional bar F whereby rivets in the top bar are dispensed with.
Grepresents a branch from the foot of tho fender to which the additional liner
is made secure.
Fig. 6 is plan view of the inside of a cheap construction of kitchen fender.
Fig. 7 is a cross sectiou taken on line a-b in Fig. 6. In this case the additional
liner F is rivetted to the front of the fender L and the branch G of the foot of the
fender is rivetted to the additional liner and to the top bar C, but by employing
this additional liner I dispeuso with the usual stays fastened to the front of the
fender.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, 1 declare that what I
claim is :-
Firstly. In kitchen fenders the combination therewith of an additional liner F
employed for purposes described and as shewn in Figs. 1 to 5.
Secondly. In kitchen fenders the use therein of an additional liner F as shewn
in Figs. 6 and 7 employed in the manner shewn in the drawings and for purposes
described.
Thirdly. In kitchen fenders the combination therewith of an additional liner F
employed in the manner described and shewn in Figs. 6 and 7.
