fenders, and this I propose to do by reducing the number of parts comprising
kitchen fenders, and to lessen the labour in their manufacture.
According to my invention I form the top part of the fender together with the
moulding from one piece of metal by suitable construction of dies and presses..
The front and sides of the fender are then attached by rivets or other suitable-
means. I may however form the top part together with the moulding and also.
the front and sides from one and the same piece of metal, but a piece is left out in
the corners of the front part, and to cover these open parts I attach gussets.
secured by rivets or other like means. And I may form from one piece of metal
the moulding and the front part only without the flat top part which latter may be
fixed in its place afterwards.
The ornamentation on the top of the fender is cut out after it bas been formed as
above described.
The feet upon which the fender is supported are attached in the ordinary manner
on the underside of the top plate, but it is also attached to the innerside of the
front part so as to stiffen the fender.

invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement :-

fenders, and this 1 propose to do by reducing the number of parts comprising:

page_text: pieces secured by rivets or other like means. And I may for.n from one piece of
metal the moulding and the front part only without the flat top part which latter
may be fixed in its place afterwards.
The ornamentation on the top of the fender is cut out before it has been formed
as above described. The feet upon which the fender is supported are attached in
the ordinary manner on the underside of the top plate, but they are also attached
to the innerside of the front part so as to stiffen the fender.
In order that my improvements may be more fully understood reference is made
to the accompanying sheet of drawings, illustrative thereof wherein :-
Fig. 1 is a geometrical view of the top part of a fender A, together with the
moulding B, which are formed from one piece of metal by means of suitable dies
and presses. The ornamentation on the top of the fender A. is afterwards cut out
by suitable dies and presses. The front and sides of the fender are afterwards
secured to the moulding B by rivets or other means.
Fig. 2 is a cross section of the top of a fender and the moulding made from oue
piece of metal as described.
I may however form the top part of the fender A together with the moulding B
and also the front C and sides D from oue and the same piece of metal as shewn at
Fig. 3, but the corner space E is filled in by a gusset or corner piece G made
secure by rivets.
When forming the top, front and sides of a fender from one piece of metal as
shewn in Fig. 4, an opening E is left in the top moulding B but this is afterwards
covered up by a gusset or corner piece G as shewn in Fig. 4, whilst Figs. 5 and 6
are illustrations of ashespans, also having additional corner pieces G.
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 :-
Firstly. The manufacture of kitchen fenders where the flat top part A and the
moulding B are formed from one and the same piece of metal as illustrated in
Figs. 1 and 2.
Secondly. The manufacture of kitchen fenders where the flat top part A,
moulding B, front C and sides D are formed from one and the same piece of
metal as shewn in Fig. 3.
Thirdly. The manufacture of kitchen fenders where the flat top part A,
moulding B, front C, and sides D are formed from one and the same piece of
metal and having corner pieces or gussets G as illustrated in Figs. 4, 5 and 6.
