I
I THOMAS ROUET of 65 Fenchurch Street, in the City of London, Merchant, do
hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
The object of my invention is the manufacture and employment of grease proof
cases for holding solid Albo-carbon in stick, rod, or pellet form as charge cartridges
for easy insertion into Albo-carbon Lamps and to prevent escape of odour while in
stock and from soiling the fingers while filling the Lamp.
For the purpose of my invention I manufacture cases of paper or other material
rendered grease proof before or after such manufacture which cases I fill with solid
hydro (Albo) carbon in stick, rod, or pellet form in such quantity as to form a
kind of cartridge to contain one solid stick, rod, or pellet which, may be intact or
scored for easy breakage into given lengths or a number of short lengths may be
inserted into a case, but I prefer that each case should hold, sufficient material to
serve as a charge for a lamp. One end of the case may be made of a lighter
material than the case itself so that it can be easily opened to enable the contents
to be emptied into the lamp and thus avoid soiling the fingers while filling the
same.
The cases are also made that little or none of the objectionable odour can escape
whether in stock, or when the case is opened for charging the Lamp.

I, THOMAS ROUET of 65 Fenchurch Street, in the City of London, Merchant, 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 the manufacture and employment of grease proof:
cases for holding solid Albo-carbon in stick, rod, or pellet form as charge cartridges
for easy insertion into Albo-carbon Lamps and to prevent escape of odour while in
stock and from soiling the fingers while filling the Lamp.
For the purpose of my invention, I manufacture cases of paper, or other material
rendered grease proof before, or after such manufacture, which cases I fill with solid 1
Hydro (Albo)-carbon in stick, rod, or pellet form such as is made under Patent
No 244 of the year 1878 in such quantity as to form a kind of cartridge to contain
one solid stick, rod, or pellet, which may be intact, or scored for easy breakage
into given lengths, or a number of short lengths may be inserted into a case, but
I prefer that each case should hold sufficient material to serve as a charge for a
Lamp. One end of the case may be made of a lighter material than the case itself
so that it can be easily opened to enable the contents to be emptied into the Lamp
and thus avoid soiling the fingers while filling the same.
The cases are also made, that little, or none of the objectionable odour can escape
whether in stock or when the case is opened for charging the Lamp.
The case thus prepared may be tapered for the ready discharge of the Albo Carbon.
The Grease Proofing of the cases may be, if of paper, secured while in pulp form,
or the exterior may be coated with a grease proof material after the cartridges
are made, or while in sheet form before being made.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is:-
The manufacture and employment of grease proof cases for solid Albo-carbon
in stick, rod, or pellet form as and for the purpose described.
