PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Mineral Water Packing and other similar Cases,
and in the Manufacture of the same.
I CHARLES HENRY WOOD of 57 Wostenholm Road Sheffield in the County of
York Manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
My invention has for its object Firstly the simplifying the manufacture of
mineral water packing and other similar cases as also the reduction of labour and
cost in their production. Secondly the better securing the joints in dovetail
fashion by means of nails instead of by the ordinary way of dovetailing. The
way in which I carry out my invention is as follows. I notch groove or mitre
almost through to the opposite side of a board a sufficient number of notches
grooves or mitres at convenient distances from cach other so as to admit of the
various sections being folded into the required shape of a box or case frame the
said board being of a sufficient length to make a whole case frame in one whole
length. Each end of the board is mitred or shamphered to correspond with the
other joints when closed or folded. The notches grooves or mitres before being
folded may be glued and when folded or closed may be mailed in dovetail fashion.
The frame when secured may have a bottom added also a lid when required as in
the ordinary way.
