A Combined Pail or Milking Can and Feeder for Calves and
other Animals.
1. EDWARD WHARINGTON Lynne place, Graisley Row, l'enn Road Wolverhampton,
in the County of Stafford, (Foreman) Tron plate Worker, do hereby declare the
nature of my invention for A COMBINED PAIL OR MILKING CAN, AND FEEDER FOR
CALVES, AND OTHER ANIMALS, 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 this invention is the construction of a combined pail, and calf feeder,
the lid thereof being capable of being removed out of the pail in its entirety, and
thereby leaving the pail available for being used for any other purpose, as a milking
can, or such like utensil. Reference being had to the Drawings filed with my provisional
Specification and the letters marked thereon.
Drawing No. 1 is an oval pail made out of tinned sheet iron.
Drawing No. 2 shows the lid (carrying two tubes, and teats for feeding two
calves,) seperate from the pail. In drawing No. 2. A is the lid, this is made of a size
that will fit the interior of the pail H. about one inch down from the top-sides of
the pail being taper serves the purpose of carrying the Lid A.
And to prevent the lid from rising, two projecting pieces' shows at F. F. on the
inside of the pail H. to hold the one side of the lid down, and the two catches-D. D.
being riveted on to the lid—are turned round into the slots. G. G—that are made io
receive them in the side of the pail H. these prevent the other side of the lid froin
rising it will be seen by these means that the lid is firmly secured at four points,
and the means of fastening the lid are no impediment to the pail being used for other
purpose herein before stated.
I am aware that Calf feeders have been made with the lid secured therein as a
permanent fixture, the lid being provided with a small opening for the insertion of the
sucking tubes.
The objection to this form, is, that the receptacle being so much covered, in it is
impossible to keep it clean, and such fixed covering also prevents the receptacle from
being conveniently used as a pail or such like utensil.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said invention-
and in what manner the same may be performed, by refering to the letters of
reference marked upon the accompanying drawings, 1 declare that what I claim is
as followers,
1st. The construction of a feeder, for Calves; or other young animals, having the
whole of the lid removable, so as to admit of the pail, or receptacle being used for
other purposes, as described and shown.
2nd. The combination of a-pail-and feeder for calves and other young animals, as
described and shown.
3d. The means of securing the lid A. inside the pail H. as described and shown.
