STOVE-PLATFOR M.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 249,979, dated November` 22, 1881.
Application filed September 5, 1881. (No model.)
To all whom it may conccrn:
Be it known that I, HENRY L. PALMER, of Brooklyn, county of Kings, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stove-Platforms, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact descri ption, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters ofreference marked thereon.
My invention has for its object the production of a simple, cheap, and durable stove board lor platform for uses well known; a'nd it consists, first, in turning the paper lining in under the edge to aid in stiffening the edge, holding the paper in place, and making a proper finish; second, in the employment of a wirein connection with the turned-in paper lining for stiffening and finishing; third, in the employment of a wire and turned-in paper lining in connection with a platform made in sections; and, further, in certain novel and useful peculiarities of construction and details of manufacture, all of which will be herein first fully described, and then pointed out in the claims.
1n the drawings, Figure 1 is a plan view of a stove-board constructed in Sections and iu accordance with my invention. Fig..2 is an enlarged sectiona] view, showing the edge of the paper linin g and adjacent metal turned in and the application of a stifi'ening-wire in connection with the turned-in portions. Fig. 8 is a perspective view of one of the Sections of which my improved platform may be composed.
v Figs. et, 5, 6, and 7 are sectional views of fragments, indicating the formation of the `joints between the stiffening corner-pieces and the main body of thev platform. Fig. 8 is a sectional view, showing a paper-lined platform, in which the edge is stiffened by the turned-in paper without the use of the Wire shown in Fig. 2. Fig. 9 is a plan of an oblon g platform employing 'more than four Sections, and Fig. 10 is a plan of a circular platform having four Sections, all as contemplated by my improvements, and all illustratin g the character, scope,
.and adaptability of the invention.
In these several figures like letters of reference, wherever they occur, indicate corresponding parts. i
In this class of articles, now come tov be largely used, it is desirable to make the platform light and yet preserve su'fficient rigidity,
so that it may stand upon edge without bending, and so that it will not warp. It is necessary, also, to make the platform a non-conductor ofheat, so as to protect the floor, carpet, 850., from damage.
Platforms of large size have heretofore been commonly made of .sheets of metal, in which there is, of course, considerable waste and an increased cost, dependent on the size of the Sheet metal employed.
Upon the under side of the metallic body of the platform, however made, I apply a lining of paper, B, by use of suitable cement or otherwise, and extend this to the outer edge of the body. Then, to finish the edge and produce a stiffened rim, I turn or bend the edge and the paper together, leaving the roll of paper within the edge so turned. The paper and the metal may be turned about a wire, a, as shown in Fig. 2, or they may be turned in without the wire, as indicated in Fig. 8. In case an extra thin metal be employed the wire will aiford an increased stiffness at the edge. Under ordinary circumstances, howcver, the turned-in paper is sufficient. Being tight'ly compressed,
it affords a good body for the ornamental bead or rim, preventing it from being damaged; and being finished in this way the platform is cheaper to make, the paper liningis more firmly bound around the edge, and the cutting of the paper to the required size is facilitatcd.
To make the platform of separate plates of metal I unite them by a lock-joint, substantially as indicated.
In Fig. 3 one of the platcs A is shown as detached from the others. It has one edge, b, turned toward the top and the other edge, c, turned toward the bottom. If the plates are all so formed, four of them will lock together, as in Figs. 1 and 9, and with them a sectional square or round platform may be made, the
' joints being compressed so as to produce a good lock and a comparatively smooth upper and under surface. The smoothing or fiattening may be accomplished by the use of a press'or by use of any suitable tool. Followingthis manner of locking'the sections together, or any manner substantially the same, the platform may be made up of any desired number of sections, and these may be of similar or of differ- IOO ent kinds of metal or differently ornamented,
at the pleasure of the manufacturer. A plat form of any required size or shape may thus be made up of smaller pieces.
The improvements enable me to employ the ordinary tin or tinned iron of commerce, which nsually comes in comparatively small sheets. This maybe ornamented or fmished in any desired way.
The views Figs. l, 3, and 9indicate the separate corner-pieces O, which are applied to the main section to add stiffness at the corners. These may likewise be employed on platforms made of single sheets of metal. They are joined with the main parts by a lock-joint, as plainly shown in Figs. 4, 5,6, and 7.
In Fig. 4 the edge of plate A is turned up, in order to lock into the edge of corner-piece O, which is turned down. In Fig. 5 the reverse construction is adopted that is, the edge of the plate is turned down, and that of the corher-piece turned up. These joints, like those between the sections, may be fiattened down, as indicated in Figs. G and 7. The cornerpieces may be of the same quality of metal as the main sections or the sheet forming the platform, or they may be different iu quality, as well as weight or thiclness. They contribute stiffness to the corners by reason of the nearness of the diagonal joint, and thus obviate the upturning of the corners of the platform when in use or damage thereto when being handled or shipped.
To (rover the meeting of the `joints at or near the center ofthe platform, I may employ an ornamental or other small plate or button, which may be attached in any suitable manner. Any suitable beading or other ornamentation o f the platform may be adopted.
I do not desire to be understood as making any broad claim to independent corner-sections applied to stove-platforms, for such devices are shown in patent to Detwiler, February 27, 1872, No. 124,039.
Having now fully described my inyention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a stove-platform, the paper lining turned in with and forming part of the bead or folded edge of the metallic portion, and serving to add strength and stifl'ness to the edge, substant-ially as shown and described.
2. In a stove-platform, the combination of a metallic plate, a paper lining, and a stitfeningwire, the edges of the plate and of the paper liningbeing turned over the wire, substantially as shown and described.
3. In a platform made up of separate sections or pieces of metal, the combination of the metallic sections joined together, a paper lining, and a stifi'ening-wire, the edge of the platform and of the paper lining being turned over the wire, substantially as shown and described.
4. In astove-platform, the combination, with the metallic body of the platform, of the cornerpieces applied thereon, the whole being lined with tlexible paper or analogous material and having the turned-in edge, substantially as shown and described.
5. In a platform made up of several Sections or separate parts, the combination, with the corner-sections, ot' the separate corner-pieces applied thereon, the whole being lined with flexible paper or analogous material and having the turned-in edge, substantially as shown and described.
6. In a platform made up of several Sections or separate parts, the combination, with the said sections, of the paper lining and the corner-pieces,the edge of the lining being turned under with the edge of the metal body, substantially as shown and described.
7.' In a platform made up ot' several sections or separate parts, the combination, with the said sections, of the paper lining and the corner-pieces, the edge of the lining being turned in under and with the edge of the metal body and over a stiffening-wire, substantially as shown and described.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two witnesses.
H. L. PALMER.
