Complete Specification Left, 13th Mar., 1900-Accepted, 13th June, 1900
We HARRY LAW, of Number 77, Colwyn Road, in the Town of Northampton,
Traveller, and GEORGE THOMAS PHILLIPS, of Number 52. Colwyn Road aforesaid,
Clerk, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:--
Our invention has reference to the division of those cases or canisters made of
metal wood pulp papier machè or similar substance into two or more compart-
ments for the purpose of containing in a handy form two or more substances.
This object may be attained by the various methods indicated in the drawings
annexed. For instance Figure 2 shews a case with a common partition e in or
near the centre. Caps or lids are fitted over the two compartments c and d and
these compartments may thus be made to contain different substances without
danger of mixing. The parts c and d may be made either by stamping ana
punching the whole of the case out of one piece of metal or alternatively by
stamping and punching out the various parts and then soldering or fastening
these together in the most approved fashion. In wood pulp or papier mache
they may be made by the usual means of moulds and presses. Figures and 4
shew the method of dividing a case vertically into two three or more compart-
ments, a common lid covering the case and Figures 5 and 6 shew a system of
forming concentric cases inside an outer case, a common lid again covering the
various compartments. The dividing partitions need not necessarily consist of
right lines or regular figures the intention of the inventors being to protect the
methods of manufacturing these cases or canisters with partitions in order to
enable them to be capable of containing two or more substances apart from each
other.
Figure 1 is a plan of a circular case containing a common horizontal partition
in or near the centre, making two compartments with a cover top and bottom.
Figure 2 is a sectional elevation of the same case shewing the partition, e, and
the covers over compartments c and d.
Figure 3 is a sectional plan of a triply divided case.
Figure 4 is a sectional elevation on line a, b of Figure 3 but shewing also the
lid or cover f.
Figure 5 is a sectional plan of a case divided by an inner concentric case.
Figure 6 is a sectional elevation of Figure 5 shewing the lid or cover g..

Road, in the Town of Northampton, Traveller, and GEORGE THOMAS PHILLIPS,
Price R17

page_text: of Number 52, Colwyn Road aforesaid, Clerk, 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:-
Our invention has reference to the division of those cases or canisters made of
metal wood pulp papier machè or similar substance into two or more compart-
ments for the purpose of containing in a handy form two or more substances.
This object may be attained by the various methods indicated in the drawings
accompanying our Provisional Specification. For instance Figure 2 shews a
case with a common partition e, in or near the centre, caps or lids are fitted
over the two compartments c and d and these compartments may thus be made to
contain different substances without danger of mixing. The parts c and d, may
be made either by stamping and punching the whole of the case out of one
piece of metal, or alternatively by stamping and punching out the various
parts and then soldering or fastening these together in the most approved
fashion. In wood pulp or papier machè they may be made by the usual means of
moulds and presses. Figures 3 and 4 shew the method of dividing a case
vertically into two, three or more compartments a common lid covering the case,
and Figures 5 and 6 shew a system of forming concentric cases inside an outer
case, a common lid again covering the various compartments. The dividing
partitions need not necessarily consist of right lines or regular figures, the
intention of the inventors being to protect the methods of manufacturing these
'cases or canisters with partitions in order to enable them to be capable of contain-
ing two or more substances apart from each other.
Figure 1'is a plan of a circular case containing a common horizontal partition
in or near the centre making two compartments with a cover top and bottom.
Figure 2 is a sectional elevation of the same case shewing the partition e, and
the covers over compartments c and d.
Figure 3 is a sectional plan of a triply divided case.
Figure 4 is a sectional elevation on line a, b of Figure 3 but shewing also the
lid or cover f.
Figure 5 is a sectional plan of a case divided by an inner concentric case.
Figure 6 is a sectional elevation of Figure 5 shewing the lid or cover g.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what
we claim is:-
1. In a case constructed of metal papier machè wood pulp or similar substance
the combination of a common horizontal dividing partition with top and bottom
caps or covers substantially as described.
2. In a case of similar materials the combination of one two or more dividing
vertical partition or partitions with a common cap or cover substantially as
described.
3. In a case of similar material the combination of a concentric dividing
partition with a common cap or cover substantially as described.
