A COBEORATION OF ILLINOIS.
METAL BASKET.
Applicationiled June 5, 1922. 4Serial No. 565,938.`
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that 1, JOSEPH JAN'rUsnK, a citizen of the UnitedStates, and a resident of Chicago, county of Cook, and State of illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in' Metal Baskets, of which the following is al specification.
The invention relates to metal baskets and more particularly to metal baskets formed of sheet metal and the body of which is made of a slitted, expanded strip. The invention seeks to provide simple and effectivev means ing the expanded metal body of the basket and also to provide an improved bottom construction which will retain line material and can be readily cleaned.
The invention consists in the features of improvements trated in the preferred form in the accompanying drawing and more particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
Fig. 1 is a vertical section of the improved basket.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail view in vertical section of the bottom construction.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail view in vertical section of the upper rim ofthe basket, and
Fig. 4 is a detail view in horizontal section on the line 1 -4 of Fig. 2. The body a is preferably formed of a single sectionl or strip of sheet metal which has been slitted and expanded and the ends of which are united in any suitable manner to constitute the circumferential or side wall of the basket. This expanded metal body is so disposed that the direction of the ori inal slits in the sheet extend vertically of t e basket body and the direction in which it has been expanded extends circumferentially thereof. ln the form s sheet metal strip has been slitted and expanded to form uniform diamond mesh oppositely inclined strands 10 united at their intersections by The opposite Zig-Zag ends of the strip are interfitted and united by a wire lacing jacent end rows of the openings, the ends of the wire lacing being suitably f stened in place, preferably by twisting, as indicated in the drawing. 'If desired the basket body ma vbe formed of expanded metal having vertical strengthening ribs, as indicated at for circumferentially brac'- l hereinafter set forth, illus-v' snugly `17 and the edge hown, the
13 woven through the adl2 in Fig. 4; .The basket body thus constructed is further expanded to form a flaring upper end and preferably also to shape the basket body so that it tapers gradually from top to bottom. .This further expansion tightens the wire lacing.
Such a basket body is extremely'rigid in a vertical direction but requires circumferentrai bracing at the top and bottom. Preferably, as shown, the upper edge portion of the reticulated body is bent around a stiffening metal ring 14 and a strip 15 of sheet metal is bent. over the portions of the upper ends of the strands which encircle the ring 13 to thereby securely clamp the fabric to the stiffening ring and also form a finishing bead at the basket rim. Preferably the ends of the'ring nected and the ends of the strip as indicated at 15a.
The bottom b of the basket is formed of an imperforate piece of sheet metal and has an edge flange which is interlocked or interfolded with the lower edge portion of the basket body.A An imperforate collar c fits within the lower end of the basket body. The collar is formed of a'strip of sheet metal having its ends interlocked or interfolded to form a seam 16, and its lower edge is preferably flanged and interlocked with 'the edge flangeof the bottom and the lower edge o ferred construction shown,
15 overlap,
the lower ends `of the strands of the expanded metal body are bent outwardly around a stiff'ening ring flanges 18 and 19 of the collar and bottom respectively are similarly bent outwardly about the ring to securely unite the parts and firmly brace the bottom of the expanded metal body. The botto-m edge flange 19 extends substantially at right angles to its body and fits snugly against' the lower end of the expanded meta body. The. flange 18 of the collar is preferably narrower, fits within the flange 19 and is gripped between the ring and body of the bottom.
The imperforate bottom b and the collar c' form a tight lower portion to the basket body which prevent fine material from passing through the openings in its side wall and' it also provides a bottom which can be read ily and conveniently cleaned. Since the direction in which the body a is expanded extends circumferentially, it tends to contract 14 abut but need not be con f the basket body. In the pred outwardly, fiaring flange 20. that it body he 'expanded If the metal Qis provided edge portion thereof should 'h similar ribs 21 fitting snugly within e same. f g. The improved construction is extreme] -strong and light, effectively prevents the escape of line material from the bottom of the basket and can be readily 'kept in clean, sanitary condition. be made in the details set forth Without departure from the essentials of the invention as dened in thev claims.
claim as my invention:
1. A metal basket comprising a reticulated body, an imperforate bottom andan inner imperforate collar, said body, bottom and lar being united base of the basket and said collar havin its upper edge in snug'engagement with the reticulated body.
2. A metal basket comprislng a reticulated body, an imperforate bottom aving an upturned flange at its edge overlapping the lower edge of' said body, and
the body and bottom respec- 4. A metal basket comprising a reticulated bo y, an imperforate collar fitting D within the lower portion of said body and an imperforate bottom, the lower edges of the periphery` of said bottom having interlocked Han es.
metal basket comprising a body a free, outwardly Obviously, changes may t y. .riph
ing upwardly from said bottom and having Haring upper edge port1on snugly engaging said strands.
metal basket comprising a bod formed of oppositely inclined strands, sti ening `rings about which the upper and ower ends of said strands are folded, an ime lower ends of perforate bottom h over that of said 7. A basket comprising a edgesl in snug engagement of said expanded metal body and said bottom respectively.
basket formed 0f comprising a slitted and p united at its ends to form the basket body disposed that the direction of exof the strip extends circumferenthe body, an imperforate bottom an imperforate inner collar, the lower e ges of said body and ery of vsaid bottom having interfolded anges, and said collar having a Hared upper edge portion snugly engaging of said expanded metal body.
sheet metal basket comprising a reticulated body formed of expanded metal aving integral U-shaped extending longitudinally forate bottom aving upturned about edge'of the body, p e'rf 4JOSEPH JANTUsEK.
