NAPOLEON ST. PETER, OF FAIRFIELD, MAINE.
KNOCKDOWN CONTAINER.
Application filed November 17, 1919.
To all whom it may concern lie it known that I, NAPOLEON S'r. Purim, a ritizcn of the United States, residing at l airfield, in the county of Somerset and tltate of Maine, have invented new and useful limprmcments in Knockdown Containers, of" which the following is a specification.
The object of my present sole invention is the provision of a simple, durable and 'ly manipulated knockdown container which may be in the form oi? an iinperforate barrel, a ventilated barrel or a pail, either inipertorate or ventilated.
To the attainment of the foregoing, the inventirm consists in the 'llllIflfOVGHlL-Zlll? as hereinafter described and definitely claimed.
l have elected to show my knockdown container in. the form of an imperi orate barrel, and in the drawings, accompanying and forming part hereof:
Figure l. is a side elevation of my novel container complete, as it appears when filled and ready for shipment.
Fig. 2 is a plan of the Eitllle.
Fig. :3 is a diainetrical section.
Fig. 1; is a plan view of the body and hoops of the container, as thesame appear when reduced to a flat state for return shipment.
Fig. 5 is asection on the line 5 5 of Fig. l, to show the tongue and groove joints between the staves of the body.
Fig. 6 is a transverse section through one of the hoops, and illustrating the permanent connection of the same to the staves of the body.
Fig. 7 is a horizontal section taken through the lapped end portions of one of the hoops, and showing the means for connecting said portions together and to the adjacent stave.
Similar numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in all of the views of upper end of the novel container includes 1. of wood, fiber or other appropriate material, and metallic hoops 2 at the ends of the staves, the outer edges 01" the hoops being approximately flush with the ends of the staves. The staves are provided with tongues 3 and complementary grooves 1, with the result that joints are broken between the longitudinal edges of the stares so as to prevent leakage at such The body of my a number of staves Specification of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 338,452.
points, and yet the body is susceptible of being reduced to a flat state for return ship ment, as SllOWl'l in Figs. 41 and 5. Each of the hoops 2 is permanently connected to each stare, preferably through the medium of rivets 5, and each hoop has lapped end portions 6 in which are apertures 7 in registration with each other and also in registration with an aperture 8 in the adjacent stave. lllxtonding through the said apertures 7 and 8 are cotter pins 9, the. ends of which are designed. to be bent against the inner side of the body, so as to strongly hold the staves and the hoops in circular formation. hen, however, it is desired to knock down the body, the cotter pins may be expeditiously and iasily withdrawn, whereupon the body as a whole will be reduced to a flat state, as shown in Fig.
At their inner sides and ends the hoops 2 are rabbeted, as indicated by 10, to form recesses r'or the reception of removable heads 11, of wood, fiber or other appropriate material, the said recesses being of such depth that the heads may rest flush with the ends of the stares.
In addition to the elements described, my novel knockdown container comprises cap rings 1.2, formed by preference of sheet metal and angular in cross-section, and with an exterior head 13 at the junction of their vertical and horizontal portions. In the vertical portion of each cap ring 12, is an aperture 14-, designed. to rest in registration with an aperture 15 in the complementary hoop 2; said apertures being for the reception. of a nail 16 through the medium oi. which the cap ring is held against casual displacement. The vertical portion of each cap ring 12 which is designed to receive the adjacent cotter pin 9, and in so doing is adapted to facili tate the placing of the aperture 14 in rcgistration with the aperture 15.
In the practical use of my novel container, the body and the hoops are manipulated into circular formation, and with the end portions oi? the hoops in lapped relation, and
he cotter pins are placed and secured in position, after which the placed in the lower end of the body, and the bottom ring 12 is placed on said lower end and is fastened by its complementary nail 16. The material to be shipped is then placed in the body, after which the top head is also provided with a notch 17 F bottom head is i permanently 'tures in the adjacent stave,
and the top ring are positioned, and the top ring is secured through the medium of its complementary nail 16.
hen it is desired to gain access to the interior of the container, the top nail 16 is withdrawn and the top ring 12 is removed, when the top head may manifestly be readily lifted from the body.
When after the procedure just described, it is desired to knock down the container, it is simply necessary to remove the bottom ring 12 and the cotter pins 9 of the hoops 2, when, as will be readily appreciated, the body may be reduced to a flat state so as to be returned with the heads and rings in a package of small compass.
It will be apparent from the foregoing that notwithstanding the capacity of function ascribed to my novel container, the same is simple and practical in construction, and is well adapted to withstand the usage to which containers of corresponding character are ordinarily subjected. Itwill also be apparent that the container does not require expensive machinery for its manufacture.
Haying described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters-Patent, 1s:
1. In a knockdown container, staves having tongues and grooves and also having re cesses in the inner sides of their ends, hoops connected to the outer sides of the staves adjacent to the ends thereof and having lapped portions with apertures in registration with eachother and with apercotter pins detachably connecting the said lapped end portions of the hoops together and to said stave, heads removably arranged within the ends of the staves, and cap rings of angular form in cross-section having notches in their vertically disposed portions to recelie said cotter pins and also having apertures designed to be registered with apertures in the hoops to receive fastening nails.
2. In a knockdown container, the conibination of staves, a. hoop permanently con nected to the staves and having lapped por tions in which are apertures in registration with each other and with an aperture in the adjacent stave; said hoop also having an aperture for the reception of a fastening nail, a cap ring, of angular form i: -;-r section, arranged on the end of the boty formed by the staves and having a notch in its "ertical portion, a head interposed between the horizontal portion of the cap ring and abutmcnts in the staves, and a. cotter pin occupying the notch in the cap ring and extending through and tcnneeting the lapped portions of the hoop and the udjacent stave; said cap ring also having in its vertical portitm an aperture in registration with the last-na1ned aperture in the hoop, and a fastening nail remo *ably arranged in said registered :tl'uftlll'tt i ot' the hoop and ring.
3. The combination in a kuoelulown eontainer, of staves arranged edge to edge, exterior end hoops pern'nlnently connected to the staves, and arranged with their outer edges flush with the ends of the tares: eaeh of said hoops having lapped portions detachahly connected together in lapped relation, heads removahly seated in the end portions of the staves, and cap rings of angular form in cross-sectim1. aria-urged over the heads, stave ends and hoops and detachably connected thereto.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
NAPOLEON ST. PETER.
