I, ARTHUR LIONEL STAMPS, of Priory Works, Priory Road, Aston, near the City
of Birmingham, Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention
to be as follows:-
-
This invention relates to improvements in the manufacture of knobs or
vases for bedstead mounts, door furniture and other purposes, and refers more
particularly to the securing of the neck to the main body.
It consists as follows; The body (or knob) is made in the ordinary manner,
that is, stamped and raised, and shaped as required, leaving an opening to receive
the neck. The neck is also made of stamped metal and spun or shaped as required
with a projecting flange to take into the opening in the body, which said flange
is tapered outwards to conform with the interior of the mouth of the body.
Immediately adjoining this flange, a projecting shoulder, or bead like formation
is made; hence when the mouth of the body is passed over the flange, this
shoulder (or bead) is rolled over the mouth of the body, thus forcing the latter
into the taper of the flange, and firmly securing it between the said flange and the
rolled over part.
The mouth of the neck is finished in any suitable manner, such as by the
securing therein of what is termed a pommel or otherwise.

Improvements in the Manufacture of Metallic Knobs or Vases for
Bedstead Mounts, Door Furniture, and the like.
I, ARTHUR LIONEL STAMPS, of Priory Works, Priory Road, Aston, near the City
of Birmingham, 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:-
This invention relates to improvements in the manufacture of knobs or
vases for bedstead mounts, door furniture and other purposes, and refers more
particularly to the securing of the neck to the main body.
In order to more clearly explain this my invention I have appended hereunto
Price 8d11

page_text: an illustrative drawing upon which are figures and numbers of reference, in
which:-
Fig. 1, is a sectional view of the body ready for being secured to the neck.
Fig. 2, is a sectional view of the neck ready for attachment to the body.
Fig. 3, is a sectional view showing the two parts secured together.
The body (or knob) 5, is made in the ordinary manner, that is, stamped and
raised, and shaped as required, leaving an opening to receive the neck 6. This
neck is also made of stamped metal and spun or shaped as required, with a pro-
jecting flange, to take into the opening in the body, which said flange is slightly
tapered outwards to conform somewhat with the interior of the mouth of the
body. Immediately adjoining this flange, a projecting shoulder or bead like
formation 8, is made; hence when the mouth of the body is passed over the
flange, the edge 9 of the body lies close in the necked recess 10. The shoulder 8,
is now closed over and pressed inwards and thus forces the edge 9, into the taper
of the flange 7, so as to nip it firmly between the said two parts.
The mouth of the neck is finished in any suitable manner, such as by the
securing therein of what is termed a pommel 11, or otherwise.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this my said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is:
The construction and arrangement in the manufacture of knobs or vases, of
connecting the neck to the body by means of the formation of the necked recess
10, with flange 7, to receive the edge of said body, and the closing over of the
shoulder S, as set forth and shown."
