I, HEINRICH OSTERMANN, of 1 Dorfstrasse, Gollme, near Landsberg, District
Halle on the Saale, in the German Empire, Farmer, 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 an improvement in pumps operated by a spiral or screw
and in order that it may be the better understood I proceed to describe the same with
eference to the accompanying drawing, and to the letters marked thereon, which
shows a vertical section through the centre of the machine.
The pump consists of a cylindrical casing a which at each end respectively is
provided with bearings for the axle of the screw or spiral and the suction inlet.
Near the front end b the casing a has an outlet or delivery pipe C. In the back
end d rests the suction inlet fin a stuffing box d and terminating in a drumshaped
chamber 9. The latter has a screw thread extending about three fourth of the
length of the chamber into which the screw or spiral h is fitted. The axle of the
screw rests in air tight bearings in the front end b. When the screw is quickly
rotated, and with it the drum-shaped chamber of the suction inlet, the air in the
suction pipe is first sucked in and then the liquid to be moved, which then enters
through space between the threads of the screw into the outer casing a.
Thence
the liquid passes away through the delivery outlet c.
As the pump delivers a regular stream when pumping water it may be used as a
fire engine, rendering the air vessel superfluous. Such a pump may also be used as
an air blower or exhauster.
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 :-
A pump, consisting of, in combination a suction inlet free to rotate in air tight
bearing terminating within a closed casing in an open drum, an internal screw or
spiral vane fitted therein, and free to rotate also in air tight bearing of casing,
effecting by simultaneous rotation, a rarefaction or suction in suction inlet, and a
delivery of gas or liquid through an outlet, in said casing, substantially as
described.

Improvements in Hollow Glass Reflectors.
I, PAUL PHILIPP ADOLPH, of 48, Baerwaldstrasse, Berlin, in the Empire
of Germany, 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 :-
Hollow glass reflectors as at present constructed have the great disadvantage that
the silvering or other metallic coating becomes deteriorated and gradually destroyed
by the heat which is given off from the flame and communicated by the metallic
part or parts to the glass walls.
The first portions of the silvering or other metallic coating that are destroyed
through the influence of the heat are those next to the metallic closing piece fixed.
in the central opening of the reflector and more especially the sharp edges of
the glass walls-caused in the process of manufacture--where the silvering or other
metallic coating is exposed.
The heat, commencing at the most exposed sharp edges of the glass walls
gradually proceeds to destroy the silvering or other metallic coating over the whole
of the surface leaving dull spotted places so that the reflecting power gradually
vanishes till finally the reflector becomes utterly useless, owing to re-silvering being
impracticable.
The above disadvantages are overcome by the present invention which I
will more particularly describe making reference to the accompanying drawing
which shows by way of example only-a vertical section of a double walled hollow
glass reflector constructed in accordance with this invention.
The metal closing piece is insulated from the glass walls a by means of a piece c
of some suitable non-conducting or bad conducting material, which may be in one
or more layers. This insulating medium c prevents the metallic piece on becoming
heated by the flame from communicating the heat to the glass walls a and especially
to the sharp edges a¹ of the latter, so that the destruction of the silvering or other
metallic coating as above described is not possible. The heat will therefore
seek other means of escape which may be conveniently accomplished by having
holes in the metallic closing piece communicating with suitable outlet channels.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
(1) A hollow glass reflector constructed substantially as herein before described
and shown by the accompanying drawing.
(2) In hollow glass reflectors, the use of an insulating piece such as c for
preventing the heat from the metal piece b being cominunicated to the glass walls a
or their exposed edges a' so as to prevent the silvering or other metallic coating
from being destroyed, as set forth.

I ANTONIO RICHARDSON of Wilford House Mansfield in the County of
Nottingham Cashier to the Meadow Foundry Company Limited in Mansfield
aforesaid 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 this invention is to provide a means for thoroughly crushing or
pulverising easily and quickly all kinds of shells broken crockery glass and other
substances as a substitute for natural grit for poultry and other uses in place of
the prevailing practise of breaking such substances with an ordinary or specially
prepared hammer or striker or other similar devices by which the materials are
not only imperfectly crushed but are also scattered about often resulting in
accidents to the operator or onlookers the risk to the eyes being specially great.
This invention consists of two or more serrated or toothed or other roughed
or grooved rollers of cast iron or other durable metal the serrations or teeth or
other similar roughings or grooves covering the whole or part only of the surface
of one or both of the rollers the serrations or teeth or other roughings or grooves
of the one fitting into the alternate cavities or indentations of the other by
preference and whilst by preference I adopt the regular serrated or toothed form
of roller shown in the drawing, 1 do not confine myself to this particular form,
instead of which a variety of forms or projections or roughings either regular
or irregular in shape either intermittent as shewn in drawings or as otherwise
described may be used or one or more of the rollers may be quite plain or smooth
so that the same object is attained.
The two or more rollers are connected by two or more tooth wheels the same
being supported and held in position by two standards having regulating screws
in order to control the size of the crushed or pulverised material and the whole
secured on a cast iron or other foundation the rollers being worked either by a
rotary motion imparted by a handle attached to the axle of one of the rollers
or by an oscillating motion imparted by the use of a long straight handle or
lever fixed in like manner.
A reference to the accompanying drawings of one form described will impart
a clear knowledge of the construction and working of the invention.
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
1. A means for crushing or pulverising shells, crockery, glass and the like by
the use of two or more rollers as described or other similar rollers having a
ike object.
2. Its application to the use or uses as described and the manner of working
ame substantially as set forth.

I, WILLIAM WHARLDALL, of Southgate, Pontefract, in the County of York,
Joiner, 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 cricket wickets.
According to my invention I provide a base plate adapted to be secured to the
ground by means of spikes. To the said base plate I attach the wicket or stumps
by means of springs so that the said stumps can give in any direction without
becoming detached from the base plate when struck by a ball.
To enable my invention to be fully understood I will describe the same by

I, JACOB REEPMAKER, of 52 Westersincel, Rotterdam, Holland, Chemist, 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:
My invention has for its object a product intended to keep off-from persons and
animals flies mosquitoes and other similar insects.
My invention consists of a product capable of being used either in the form of
a lotion or as a powder to be applied to the skin of persons or of animals.
This product as a lotion is composed of ;-
45 parts of linseed, colza or other suitable oil,
5 parts of colocynth (French "coloquinte ")
25 parts of petroleum,
25 parts of essence of eucalyptus
or in about such relative proportions. The whole being well mixed.
This lotion is applied by means of a brush or the like and is more particularly
intended for animals such as horses for example.
As a powder for persons-the proportions of the mixture should not be so strong
and instead of employing an oil base I use a base of powder (rice powder for
instance) to which I add (for 100 parts of powder) 12 parts of petroleum and
12 parts of essence of eucalyptus-or thereabouts.
Experiments made with this new product have given the most satisfactory
results; it is very easy of application and the cost is very small.
This composition will be of the greatest utility in hot countries as animals can
be covered with it by means of a brush and one coat per day will be ample to
protect them from the attacks of flies or mosquitoes or the like.
Persons have only to powder the face and hands in order to efficiently protect
themselves.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is ;-
1. The hereindescribed insecticide lotion or composition consisting of a mixture
of linseed colza or other suitable oil, colocynth (French "coloquinte ") petroleum
and eucalyptus in or about the proportions specified.
2. The herein before described insecticide powder or composition consisting of
a mixture of powder such as rice powder petroleum and eucalyptus in or about the

Improved Damper or Mute for Metal Musical Instruments.
We, ALBERT NÖLTE, of 31 Bruderstrasse, Breslau, in the Empire of Germany,
Householder, and FRANZ MEIER, of 8 Palmstrasse, Breslau, aforesaid, Musician.
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 subject of the present invention is a metal damper or mute for brass and
other instruments. The difference between this damper or mute and those
ordinarily used is that whereas the latter are placed loose in the mouth or bell of
the instrument and completely closed so that the sound waves can only be emitted
through the space between the damper or mute and the sides of the sound funnel or
bell the present damper or mute is made to fit close inside the funnel or bell and has
one or more lateral holes for the emission of the sound waves. This new arrange-
ment enables the notes to be deadened much more effectually than can be done
with the dampers or mutes hitherto used. Moreover with this arrangement the
deadening can be easily and accurately regulated.
The enclosed drawing shows the new damper or mute as follows
Fig. 1. The damper or mute inserted in the sound funnel or bell.
Fig. 2. The damper or mute by itself fully open.
Fig. 3. The damper or mute half closed.
The new damper or mute consists of a funnel shaped hollow body a, the front of
which is closed by a concave plate. The neck of the damper or mute fits the shape
of the sound funnel or bell perfectly and is packed with a ring of suitable
material so that the whole of the sound waves are compelled to pass through the
damper or mute. The openings e for the sound waves are in the sides of the neck
of the damper or mute and can be more or less closed by an overlying ring d with
corresponding openings e so that by turning this ring the deadening of the sound can
be easily regulated.
The new damper or mute is preferably made of the same material as the
instrument in order to avoid any change in the timbre of the latter.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what
we claim is :-
1. A metal damper or mute for metal musical instruments the neck of which is
adjusted tightly in the sound funnel or bell of the instrument and has lateral
openings c for the passage of the sound waves so that all the sound waves are
compelled to pass through the damper or mute.
2. A damper or mute for metal musical instruments provided with openings c
through which the sound waves pass and an overlying ring d provided with
corresponding openings e whereby the openings c can be opened or closed to more
or less deaden the sound and produce a variable effect substantially as described.

of producing pattern and ornaments presenting an aspect similar to glass beads
close or open meshed fabrics is as follows.
upon
The fabric is coated by means of moulding boards or forms with a medium
consisting of resinous substances. This medium is preferably composed of 60 parts
of guaiacum, and 30 parts of shellac dissolved in 100 parts of alcohol, 10 parts of
glycerine being added to this solution under continuous stirring. After this
composition has been distributed over or moulded on the surface of the fabric the
aforesaid glass powder is strewn over this coating and firmly pressed onto it
by repeated rolling or pressing so that an imitation of bead patterns is thus
produced.
The glass powder is produced by pulverizing or pounding up variously coloured
glass.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we
claim is :
1. The method of producing patterns upon close or open meshed fabric by
coating the latter with a medium consisting of resinous substances, scattering glass
powder over said medium and rolling or pressing the powder on to the mediam
while still in plastic condition.
2. For executing the process described in Claim 1 a medium consisting of
guaiacum and shellac or similar resinous substance, alcohol and glycerine in

A Method of Preparing Frame Models of Various Structures.
I, EMIL JENSS of 20 Kloster Strasse, Lübeck, in the Empire of Germany,
Locksmith, 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 this invention is to supply an easy and simple method of making
frame-models of buildings or structures of various kinds on a small scale.
It supplies for children and unoccupied persons an extraordinarily instructive
and entertaining occupation for leisure moments, as there is no end to the models
which may be formed to its means.
It consists of simple strips or angle pieces of metal or whale-bone or any suitable
material, with holes formed preferably near the end, and connected at right angles
or otherwise to each other by means of tiny screws and nuts.
These strips may be straight or curved and of any preferred length or width or
thickness, and are fastened together in any conceivable shape or form by means of
the screws and nuts aforesaid.
I will now describe the invention with reference to the accompanying drawings
in which
Fig. 1 shows some samples of the strips both straight and curved, and of the
angle pieces, and
Fig. 2 shows a model of a small bridge constructed with the said strips.
I do not confine myself to the precise form of strip shewn, as they may
be varied in many ways; and of course models of any imaginable shape may be
formed.
Having now particularly described and ascertained my said invention and in what
manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I claim is :-
A method of forming small frame models of various structures, by means of
prepared strips, and angle pieces of any suitable substance, said strips and angles
being pierced by holes of suitable size, to receive small bolts and nuts, or screws
and nuts, by which they are connected, as herein described and set forth.

Improvements in Horse-shoe Pads.
I, RICHARD HEDLEY, of 4, Heywood Street, Moss Side, Manchester, in the
County of Lancaster, Farrier, 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 horse-shoe pads.
The pads heretofore in use have been employed at the heel of the hoof and
have closed and filled up the hoof.
The object of my invention is to provide a pad which will give a better grip and
thus prevent the horse slipping and which leaves the frog and heel open, so as to
allow of ventilation and thereby keep the hoof cool.
And in order that my invention may be more fully understood I have caused
to be appended hereunto one sheet of drawings marked with letters of referenco
indicating like parts in the various figures.
Fig. 1 is an elevation, Fig. 2 a sectional elevation, and Fig. 3 a plan of my
improved horse-shoe pad employed in connection with the hoof and horse-shoe.
a is the hoof, the shoe, and c the pad.
In carrying out my invention and referring to the figures generally in lieu of
forming the pad to fit against the heel of the horse-shoe or to close and fill up
the hoof I form the same in rim fashion conform with the inner side of the shoe,
see more particularly Fig. 3, and in depth equal or nearly so thereto.
The said horse-shoe shaped pad I cement or otherwise fasten upon a piece of
leather in shape conform with the pad c and horse-shoe and form a flange d
around the latter.
In shoeing the horse the pad e with its leather flange d is placed against the
hoof a, the shoe & upon the latter and by driving the nails through the shoe b
and the flange d both pad and shoe are simultaneously secured to the hoof a.
It will thus be readily seen that the pad described will give a much better
grip than heretofore has been the case and allow the air access to the hoof thas
keeping it always cool.
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-
A pad for horse-shoes, formed in rim fashion to fit against the inner side of
the horse-shoe and open at the frog, all substantially as set forth.

hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention has for its object to simplify and cheapen the manufacture of

To that end I make the beam of the plough of cast steel. The solehead is
secured to the beam in the ordinary way but instead of making it a forging as
heretofore I make it a steel casting with a socket formed on its forward end. The
sock which is also a steel casting is formed with a square stump or projection having
a slight taper to permit of its being driven into the socket formed on the solebead.
This dispenses with the use of bolts for securing the sock and permits of easy
withdrawal when it is found necessary to repair it.

I, JOHN MORTON, of Boghall, Galston, in the County of Ayr, Blacksmith, 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 has for its object to simplify and cheapen the manufacture of
ploughs.
To that end as illustrated in side elevation of the plough at Fig. 1 of the accom-
panying drawings and in plan and side elevation of the sole head of the plough at
Figs. 2 and 3 respectively, I make the beam A of cast steel. The sole head B is
secured to the beam A in the ordinary way but instead of making it a forging
as heretofore I make it a steel casting with a tapered socket C formed on its
forward end, as shewn particularly at Fig. 3. The sock D which is also a steel
casting is formed with a square or beveled stump or projection d having a taper
corresponding to the taper on the socket C to permit of its being driven into said
socket. This dispenses with the use of bolts for securing the sock D and permits
of easy withdrawal when it is found necessary to repair it, but if desired the sock D
can be further secured by a bolt passing through the sole head B and through a
slotted hole in the stump of the sock D. The coulter may be composed of two
pieces E, F, the lower piece which is made double ended to render it reversible,
being secured in a socket e on the piece E by a bolt f.

page_text: Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is:
-:
In a plough the construction of the beam of cast steel in combination with the
cast sole head having formed on it a socket for the reception of the stump of the
sock substantially as described.

A Machine for Rounding and Polishing or Smoothing the Edges of
Cardboard and the like.
1, JOSEF TEMLER, of Warsaw, in the Empire of Russia, and 30 to 34 Tabernacle
Street, in the County of London, 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 :-..
It is in many cases desirable to round off the sharp edges of cut cardboard and
the like and to smooth or polish the rounded edge. For this purpose two
manipulations have hitherto been requisite; the first carried out with the scraper,
the second with the smoothing bone (paper knife). The object of this machine is
to enable these two operations to be carried out simultaneously and more rapidly
than one of them could heretofore be effected alone.
This machine is shown in the accompanying drawings in which
a is a smoothing or polishing disc the periphery of which has a groove a¹. The
disc a is mounted on a spindle b, driven by cord pulley as shown in the drawings;
or in any other convenient manner.
"
is a a table through which the polishing disc passes so that the lower face of
the groove a¹ is in the same plane as the top of the table.
The cardboard to operated upon is laid on the table c, and the edge to be polished
is pushed into the groove a¹ of the disc a, which is caused to rotate, and the edge
of the board is lightly pressed into the said groove. By this means the sharp
edges of the cardboard are slightly rounded and at the same time polished.
The best material I am acquainted with for the grinding disc a is that of which
emery grinders are made, of fine grain; or a steel disc the hollow edge a' of which
is roughened or "milled" or cut as a fine file.
In order that it may operate to the best advantage the disc must be made to
rotate with great rapidity.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
A machine for rounding and at the same time smoothing or polishing the cut
edges of cardboard and the like characterised by a disc a, having a groove a¹,
which disc is fitted on the rotating spindle b, and passes through the table c,
so that the lower face of the groove a¹ is in the same plane with the top of
the table.

Improvements in or relating to Pneumatic Tires.
WILLIAM EDWARD CORRIGALL 27 Sterndale Road West Kensington Park:
London, W., Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
The tire is constructed of a circular band of india rubber, with a suitable material.
on the inner circumference of the tire or otherwise to prevent stretching, narrow
strips of whalebone being laid longitudinally and perforated to allow of the rubber
fixing it in position when moulded or cast and to prevent puncture, as set forth in
my Letters Patent No. 15112 of 1893, which is utterly impossible with this.
arrangement.
The tire is so arranged that when the ends of the band are brought together and
secured in the rim or felly of the wheel they form a perfectly air tight joint,.
obviating the necessity of an inner inflating tube.
The interior is inflated in the usual way by means of a suitable valve.

page_text: Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is :-
1. The improvement in making a pneumatic tire without the inner inflating tube
substantially as described.
2. The combination of a grooved rim or felloe, and a circular band of india-
rubber or other flexible material held in the rim by the pressure within the circular
band which forces its sides and ends against the rim and against each other
substantially as described.
3. Tires or rims for cycles and other vehicles consisting of the parts A. B. & C.
combined and arranged, substantially as described and illustrated in the annexed
drawings, Figures 1. & 2.

BENITO NICHOLS 41 Great Western Road, Westbourne Park London, W.
Gentleman, 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 :-
My invention relates to a method of displaying materials for men's or women's
dresses.
According to this invention I provide a transparent sheet of material, such as
glass, celluoid, rizaline, and lithograph or print, or paint upon it in such a manner
as to leave a transparent portion the exact shape of garment or garments in its
would-be made up style.
In the transparent part I also imprint or lithograph the buttons, edgings of
pockets and other outlines of the garment as it would appear when made up.
Outside the transparent part is painted or otherwise applied a coating of non-
transparent material to obstruct the light.
To ascertain the appearance cloth would have when made up, such cloth is
placed behind the sheet and through the transparent part is seen the garment as
it would be when made up, but in a reduced scale.
I also propose to apply the foregoing principle to the panes in shop windows.
In this case I use the glass itself as the transparent material and paint it in such
a manner as to leave the transparent outline of the figure in full size. Different
patterns of cloth may be hung alternately behind which will display the goods to
better advantage in the window.
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 general arrangement and construction of the hereinbefore described method
of showing dress goods in shop windows.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in and connected with Feather, Flock, Hair, Fibre,
and similar Mattresses, Overlays, Cushions, Beds, and the like.
We, GEORGE WILLIAM Fox, of 53 Princess Street, Manchester in the County
of Lancaster, Solicitor, and JAMES COLLINGE of 3 Limesford Road, Nunhead, in
the County of Surrey, Manager, 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 flock, feather, wool, hair, fibre, and other similar
mattresses, cushions, beds, overlays and the like, and its object is to provide means
for their more perfect ventilation and drying and at the same time to dispense
with the use of tufts, buttons, or studs, which are at present commonly used. In
dispensing with the tufts, buttons or studs, around which dust, dirt and dangerous
organic matters may accumulate in use, we also obtain greater cleanliness and
hygienic safety.
We will describe our improvements with reference to the accompanying
drawings, Figure 1 of which represents a partial plan of a cushion, or of a mattress
for a child's cot, it being understood that other cushions, mattresses, overlays, and
beds are made up, according to this invention in a similar manner to that
hereinafter described with reference to the drawings.
At suitable positions, such for example as the positions a Figure 1, now occupied
by the tufts, buttons or studs, we bring the opposite sides of the tick, cover or its
equivalent, together, as shewn in the sectional view, Figure 2, and perforate them
as at a. To keep the opposite sides together and to prevent the fraying of the
edges of the fabric, we may bind them with thread, treating them as button-holes ;
or, and preferably, we may insert and close up in them eyelets or perforated rivets,
as indicated at 6 Figure 2.
Mattresses and the like made as hereinbefore described are very portable, and
are especially useful for children's cots, ships' berths, and other similar uses, as
they may be effectively dried and disinfected inore readily than when made in the
ordinary manner.
Having now particularly, described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we
claim is :-
Mattresses, overlays, cushions, beds and the like, having their opposite sides
connected and perforated at suitable distances, substantially as and for the purpose
hereinbefore described and as illustrated by the accompanying drawings.

Improvements in Vessels or Oans for the Reception and the
Transport of Liquids.
1, WILHELM UHLENHOFF, of No. 65 Am Hafen Bremerhafen in the Empire
of Germany, 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 invention relates to cans or pots designed for the reception and transport of
liquids and especially for petroleum. They are constructed in such a manner that
the transverse section as well as the base represents the segment of a circle or a
part of a regular polygon.
A certain number of these pots or cans may be placed side by side so as to form
a circle or a polygon and can then be transported and lifted together with great.
ease.
In the accompanying drawings:-
Figures 1 and 2 show in elevation and plan respectively such a system of cans.
forming together a circle.
Figures 3 and 4 are end-views of a single can.
The pipes or spouts a are fixed to the narrow sides of the cans and thus turned
inside to the centre of the system when the same are grouped together. Above
the spouts hooks are fixed into which a ring c with an arched handle may be
placed for lifting the whole system together. Recesses may be formed in the..
sides of the cans for strengthening the same.
The handles or lugs g are hinged to the sides and are made to fold into recesses h
of the outer sides of the cans. (Figs. 3 and 4.)
A ring or baud d put around the whole system presses the cans together.
The covers fof the apertures for filling the cans are also placed in recesses e
enabling several groups of cans to be set one upon the other and to be transported
or lifted together.
Cans or pots constructed in the above described manner may preferably be-
employed for the transport of oils or petroleum as they may be easily lifted and
placed on a car or waggon.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my Baid
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
1. Cans or pots in form of a segment of a circle or polygon for the reception and
transport of liquids constructed in such a manner that a given number of these--
vessels can be grouped together in form of a circle or a polygon substantially as
and for the purpose specified.
2. In combination with vessels of the above described form the application of
the ring c with an arched holder for lifting the whole system substantially as
described.
3. In combination with the above described vessels the application of the hinged
or folding handles g moveable into recesses h so that a ring d may be put around
the whole system substantially as, and for the purpose specified.
