I, PHILIP JAMES WEBB of Armley Road Iron Works, Leeds in the County of
York, Commercial Traveller do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
The object of my invention is to simplify the construction of kitchen fenders by
reducing the number of parts thereby lessening the cost of manufacture.
Hitherto the fronts of kitchen fenders have been made of sheet iron or steel,
and the top front bar thereof has been formed of bar iron or steel, these being
afterwards joined together by stays and rivets, or by rivets only. Now according to
my improvements I form the whole in one piece as follows:
I take a piece of sheet iron or steel of the required dimensions and by means of
rolling, stamping or other pressure I form a bead or other mould on one side of such
plate and I afterwards bend the beaded or moulded plate to the required angle for the
ends, thus forming the fronts, ends, and top front bars of kitchen fenders out of one
and the same piece of metal.
By the above mentioned construction a great improvement is made in the appear-
ance of the fender, also by means of the bead or mould forming the top front bar
being constructed as described any object or body coming in contact or falling against
or upon the same would receive less injury than when the said fenders are made with
the ordinary sharp edges.

page_text: Improvements in the Construction of Fenders.
I, PHILIP JAMES WEBB, of Armley Road Iron Works, Leeds in the County of
York, Commercial Traveller 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 simplify the construction of kitchen fenders by
reducing the number of parts, thereby lessening the cost of manufacture.
In the accompanying drawings Fig. 1 is a transverse section, and Fig. 2 a plan
looking at the top, shewing an end and part of front of a kitchen fender constructed
in accordance with my improvements.
Hitherto the fronts of kitchen fenders have been made of sheet iron or steel, and the
top front bar thereof has been formed of bar iron or steel, these being afterwards
joined together by stays and rivets, or by rivets only.
-
Now according to my improvements I form the whole in one piece, as follows:
I take a piece of sheet iron or steel A of the required dimensions, and by means of
rolling, stamping or other pressure form a bead or other mould B on one side or edge
of such plate A, and I afterwards bend the beaded or moulded plate to the required
angle for the ends C, thus forming the front D, ends C, and top front bar F of kitchen
fenders out of one and the same piece of metal.
By the above mentioned construction a great improvement is made in the appearance
of the fender, also by means of the bead or mould B forming the top front bar F being
constructed as described, any object or body coming in contact or falling against or
upon the same would receive less injury than when the said fenders are made with the
ordinary sharp edges.
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 employment of metal plate A, bent, beaded or moulded, so as to form the
front D, ends C, and top front bar F of kitchen fenders out of one and the same piece,
substantially as herein set forth.
