"UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES. W. FALLOWS, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN TOV BLOW-HORNS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 181,159, dated August 15, 1876; application filed June 27, 1876.
declare that the following is a full, clear, and
exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification.
The nature of my invention consists in the construction of a blow-horn, as hereinafter more fully set forth.
In order to enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to l'nanufacture and use the same, I will now proceed to more fully describe the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 represents a side elevation of my blow-horn, and Fig. 2 represents a small section of the body.
The body A of the horn is made of corrugated sheet metal, in the usual tapering form, and is provided with a 1nouth-piece,B, having the usual reed. The metal which forms the These corrugations are preferably made on an incline, so that when the blank sheet is bent into tubular shape the corrugations a a will be on a short spiral, as shown in the drawings.
It is well known that the thinner the metal of which such horns are made the sharper the tone; but in cases where the horns are plain or smooth, and made of light metal, they do not have the requisite strength or keep proper shape, and in a short period would not be merchantable or present a neat appearance.
1 claim for my invention that lighter and cheaper metal can be used, and that the same is more easily worked into propershape by being light, that it costs less in construction, and that the sound made by the mouth-piece and reed is sharper than in the usual blowhorn made of plain or smooth metal.
Having thus fully described my invention,
that I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- A blow-horn made of corrugated sheet metal, for the purposes herein set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 14th day of June, 187 (5.
CHARLES W. FALLOWS. Witnesses:
JAMES FALLOWS, ANSON EATON.
