Improvements in the Manufacture of Covers for Side Dishes and
other similar Dishes.
I, HERBERT HUTTON of West Street, Sheffield, in the County of York Manufacturer
do hereby declare the nature of my said invention for IMPROVEMENTS IN THE MANU-
FACTURE OF COVERS FOR SIDE DISHES, AND OTHER SIMILAR DISHES, to be as follows :-
-
My invention of improvements in the manufacture of Covers for dishes refers more
particularly to the Covers of Entrée dishes, side dishes and other dishes, the Covers of
which are intended to be used as dishes when occasion requires, and for that purpose
are provided with removable handles or knobs.
The object of my invention is to do away with and provide a substitute for what is
technically called and known as a "Crown mount which is usually an ornamental
moulding made separately and attached by soldering, it is made to project beyond the
locking part which retains the handle, so that when the cover is reversed and used as
a dish, it rests upon the crown mount which thus forms a foot and prevents the cover
being scratched by the table.
If the crown mount is secured by soft solder the article cannot be safely put into an
oven or upon a hot plate and if hard soldered, the process being expensive, con-
siderably increases the cost of manufacture.
My invention consists in producing a projection on the outside of the cover, from
the solid metal, which I accomplish by stamping, spinning or by other means forming
a groove, channel, or indentation on the inside of the cover, of sufficient depth to
produce the projection on the outside and I thus dispense with the separate mount and
with the soldering process necessary to attach it to the cover.

other similar Dishes.
I, HERBERT HUTTON of West Street, Sheffield, in the County of York, Manufacturer
do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be
performed, to he particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:
My invention of improvements in the manufacture of Covers for Dishes refers more
particularly to the covers of entrée dishes, or side dishes, and other dishes having
covers that are intended to be used as dishes when occasion requires, for which purpose
the said lids are provided with removable handles and knobs.
My invention is a simple improvement in the construction, and in order that it may
be clearly defined and understood, I annex a sheet of drawings, illustrating how my
invention is carried into practice.
Fig. 1, is a perspective elevation of a cover made according to my invention."
Fig. 2, is a section of same.
The object of my invention is to do away with and provide a substitute for what is
technically called and known as the "crown-mount," which is a moulding (usually of
an ornamental character) made separately and afterwards attached to the cover by
soldering.
The crown-mount is made to project or stand above the locking part, which engages
with the Handle, so that when the handle is removed, and the lid or cover is reversed
and used as a dish, it rests upon the crown-mount which thus forms a foot and prevents
the cover being scratched by coming in contact with the table.
Now if the crown-mount is secured to the cover by soft soldering, the article cannot
be safely put into an Oven or hot closet or plate, and if on the other hand it is hard
soldered the cost of manufacture is considerably increased, the process being ex-
pensive.
My invention consists in producing the desired projection (in substitution for the
crown-mount in present use) which is marked A, from the solid metal of which the
cover is made, and I accomplish this by stamping, pressing, or spinning, a groove,
channel, indentation, or a series of grooves or indentations, such as B, on the inside of
the cover, of sufficient depth to produce a projection (or projections) such as shown.
The locking part C, is put on as at present.
It will thus be seen that I dispense with the making up of a separate moulding
called the crown-mount, and with the process of soldering it to the cover.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said invention,
and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I claim is :-
-The improvement in the manufacture of covers for Dishes, for the purpose
specified and substantially as hereinbefore described and illustrated in the drawings.
2 In the manufacture of dish covers which are intended for occasional use as
dishes the construction of a substitute for the crown-mount, by forming a projection
or projections (such as A) from the solid metal of the cover, substantially as herein-
before described and illustrated.
