Improvements in or relating to Snives.

page_text: Improvements in or relating to Snives.
I, WILLIAM OLIVER, of 69, York Road, Lambeth, in the County of London,
Greengrocer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention refers to shives having an automatic vent, and consists in the
method of fixing an india rubber valve stem to the shive.
According to this invention, I make a vertical taper hole through the shive
and into this hole I drive a taper peg having a vertical hole through same, such
peg being driven down into the hole in the shive so that its upper end may be
below the surface of the shive in order that when the shive is trimmed, when in-
serted in a barrel or the like, the peg may be out of the way. The lower end of
the peg passes through the shive, and the tube forming the stem of valve passes
over the projecting end and is suitably secured thereto.
The above object may also be effected by turning a projection on the bottom
of the shive and making a hole through the shive and the projection, round which
latter the valve stem is secured.

Improvements in or relating to Shives.
I, WILLIAM OLIVER, of 69, York Road, Lambeth, in the County of London,
Greengrocer, 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 refers to shives having an automatic vent, and consists in the
method of fixing an india rubber valve stem to the shive.
According to this invention I make a vertical taper hole through the shive
and into this hole I drive a taper peg having a vertical hole through same, such
peg being driven down into the hole in the shive so that its upper end may be
below the surface of the shive in order that when the shive is trimmed, when in-
serted in the barrel or the like, the peg may be out of the way. The lower end of
the peg passes through the shive, and the tube forming the stem of the valve
passes over the projecting end and is suitably secured thereto.
The above object may also be effected by turning a projection on the bottom
of the shive and making a hole through the shive and the projection, round which
latter the valve stem is secured.

page_text: And in order that my said invention may be better understood I will now pro-
ceed to describe the same with reference to the drawing accompanying this speci-
fication in which Fig. 1 shews a section of a shive made according to my inven-
tion; Fig. 2 plan of same; Fig. 3 section of a shive made according to a
modification.
The same letters denote the same parts in all the views.
a shews the shive. The shive shewn at Figs. 1 and 2 has a tapered hole b, and
into this tapered hole is driven a tapered peg c, having a vertical hole d through
same. The lower end of the peg c projects below the shive, so that the tube form-
ing the stem of the valve may be passed over the projecting end of the said peg c
and suitably fastened thereto.
-
In the modification shewn at Fig. 3 a projection c¹ is formed on the bottom of
the shive a and the hole d made through the shive and the projection.
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;-
In shives, a vertical tapered hole provided with a tapered peg extending below
the under surface of the shive for the purpose of securing the valve stem thereto
substantially as set forth.
