Specification of Letters Patent No. 22,675, dated January 18, 1859.

To all whon'i it may concern:

lie it known that l 1* ii. .loo'r, of Hart- Ford, county of llarttord. in the State at (Toiuwcticut. have invented a new and useful llll ethod ot l aeltino Cartridges: and I do hereliy declare that the Following is a toll and eJ-Jaet derajrriptiou tliei'eo'l'. i'el'brt lietr being had to the :u-eoinpanying; drawings and to the letters (it reference niarlted thereon.

My invention has tor its ohjert the putting up of cartridges in such a. manner that they shall not he liable to injury hy trans portation; while at the HUMP time the packiu e' may he more reai'lily removed with less danger of breaking the cartridge than exists with the usual method of parking, and nine nerve as a convenient holder or hox or carrying the remaining); cartridges. when only a. portion of a package in need at one time. And my invention ((Fllt-llhlh in litltn'llljl the cartridges hetween hlor 1. of wood or their equivalents; formed with eaviti-c-s. to receive. and retain the eartrilg'eii enhsstaie tially as hereinatter denerihed.

In the accoinpanying drawingga Forming part of this speeilimlioo, l igure l represents a side and end view oi one of my improved cartridge paeliinge. and holders. Fig. 2, a top view. of lower portion. or block of: the $211110, with cartridges in. Fig. 3, a vertical longitudinal SQCtiOH through the center of the same. Fig. l. a vertical lateral section, through the center, of the same. and Fig. 12, a perspective view of same. Fig. 5 represents a side and end View of another package, of dillerent size and proportion. Fig. (l, a. side view of same with upper portion. or block, removed, and also a vertical cross section on line an m, Fig. Fig. '7, a. vertical longitudinal and cross section through. the. center of the upper block, or portion, of same, and l ig. 13, a. perspective view of same. Fig. 8 represents a side elevation of another package of a cylindrical torn] and adapted to contain in addition to the cartridgee an equal number of cape. Fig. 9. a. top view of: lower portion of the same with eontente. Fig. 10. a hot: ton] view of the upper portion, or block, of the same. Fig. 11, a vertical section, through the name, at 3 3 Fig. tl and. Fig. M, a perspective View. oi the same.

Similar letters denote the same parts in the different. views.

t r prer ente the lower liloelt'. or portion. ol the hon, in which, is l'oriued a neries ol' eavitie (f. (nee Fina. I} and ll. module the charge or paper portion Q the cartridge. and a portion of the hall o.

ii. is. the upper lllork. or portion, of the hon. in \vhivh is Forum! a eerie. ol' rarities Z). (see Fig. T.) to receive a portion of the hall. not aeroinniollatril. or lllt'tlHill lay the lower liloi'li A.

i represents the halla ol' the eartridgee, e, the perruenion raps tttt Fine. 5 and ill and. and. in". the entitle. in lower liloelt It. and upper hloelt ll. for receiving: the said wipe.

it will tie ohwrved that the 'aritim (J. E'mno-d in the lower hlorlt it. Io not ext nd entirely thr ugh said lilowli. l nt are closed up at their lower end. hy a i'einaiinler oi Flori; sullieient to ineuro strength to the hox and also that said cavities. or horen.ha\'e their months or upper edges slightly llareil. or funneled. as reprewnted at (see Figs. :5 and t).

it has heen teuud practically hetter in constructing: the hoxee. or packages of wood. to here the t't\.lll( 17 only partly through the hloel; it. as before mentioned. They however may he hored entirely through the l)lt)(l( A. and eloeed up at their hottoninvith a thin strip, or hottoni piece A" (as seen at Figs. (3, F. and 13}, having its grain run at right angle? to the grain ot the piece A. though 1. do not consider the last named method as desi 'ahle as the first.

It ie obvious that the eonstruetion oil the box may he changed from either of these methods without departing from the spirit of my invention.

it is advisahle to flare the mouths of the cavities I or their upper cdgea (as. already described) in order that the lower portion of the hall or cartridge, or both, may more freely he placed in or extraeted from Said avity. It will be seen that the cavities or bores (Z are of a uniform diameter, from where the flaring at the upper edge. ceases down to the hottoin except at Fig. 11. The straight hored cavities are such as would he most desirable with the ordinary straight eartridge; but when the 'artridges are ta perin i the bores should he made eorrespondingly, an seen at Fig. 11, in order that the cartridge may come into contact with the sides of the. horn d and. be perfectly held.
