METHOD OF ASSEMBLING AND HINGING TOILET SEATS AND COVERS Filed May 31, 1930 Patented Aug. 9, 1932 UNITED STATES EDWARD L. DEL-ANY, on BROOKL N, NEW YORK METHOD OF ASSEMBLING- AND HINGING T OILET SEATS .A1\TD COVERS Application filed May 31,
My invention relates to improvements in method of assembling, hinging and shipping toilet seats and covers.
My invention pertains in part to method 5 and apparatus for assembling hinges of the character described and disclosed in my application filed May 31, 1930, Serial No. 458,411 forimprovements in hinges for the seat and cover for toilets. In toilet seats of '10 this character, as set forth in the heretofore mentioned application, the cover'is smaller in area than the seat and it has beenfound very advantageous not to permanently connect the seat and cover together, but to alze low of a lateral'movement of the cover in respect to the seat when shipping and yet it is necessary that all necessary holes be provided for, whereby the seat can be readily attached to the hopper obviating. any adjustment and at the same time providing for an absolute accurate alinement of the seat and cover so that the ordinary layman or plumber can assemble the seat on the hopper. When the seat and cover are permanently or rigidly connected, ready for use,.it has been found that any lateral strain on the cover due to the fact that it is of less area than the seat, causes a fracture or breaking of the seat or cover around the pivots or trunnions and therefore it is advantageous to provide means whereby-this lateral movement may be provided for without bringing any strain upon either the seat or cover in the shipping of the same. My invention further pertains to a method and apparatus whereby the hinge plates can be accurately positioned and connected to the seat and cover so that they remain fastened together by the hinge plates and yet have a limited lateral movement to prevent the lateral strain ofthe pivots or trunnions on the seat or cover and at the same time assure of the proper registering of the holes hinge'plates and theseatand coverwhen 1930. Serial No. 458,410.-

In the accompanying drawing Figurefl is a top plan viewiof a toilet seat showing'thefirst twosteps of assembling I my improved hinge to the seat. a
Figure '2 is an enlarged side elevation of Figure 1 showing the; seat and-cover partly broken away and showing the third step, of assembling. a I Figure 3 is a side elevation similar toFigure 2 showing the fourth'step 1n my method ofassembling the hinge.
- Figure 4 is a top plan View of Figure 3..
Figure 5 is a top plan view similar to 0 Figure 4 showing the cover moved laterally in respect to the seat. v V Referring. now to the drawing: 1 representsthe seat and '2 the cover whic has been described in my application executed '65 on even date herewith, and are of any desired or well known form and provided at their rear ends with the tongue 4 serving'as means by'which the hinge plates may be readily attached to allow of the free swinging of the 70 seat together with the cover as a unit.
' In this application, the'hinge is formed'of the two L shaped hinge plates, 5 and 6 and the upper ends of said plates are provided with openings 7 and 8 into which extend the 75.
In assembling the hinges, the first step is to place the two hinge plates over the trunnions of the cover 2 and then spreading the assembling tool 21 apart so that the pins 22 and 23 may pass through the openings 11 and 12 in the hinge plates and enter the previous- 1 drilled openings 15 and 16 in the seat and the spring 24 of the assembling toolwillforce or draw the pins in the properposition within the openings within the seat. The cover 2.- is then properly alined as shown in Figure 1 of the drawing and an ordinary wood clamp 25 is used to clamp the coveron the seat in its proper alined position. The alining of the cover on the seat moves the hinge plates 6 and 7 to their proper position by the rocking thereof on the pins of the assembling tool. When thus clamped the two drills pass through the openings 17 and-18 in the hinge plates 5 and 6a'nddrill holes in the seat and after the drills are removed, the screws 19 and 20 are screwed therein clamping the hinge plates to the side of the seatand holding the cover 2 between'the plates. These screws-are not tightened sufliciently to clamp the hinge plates against movement buttight enough toprevent' spreading thereofand yet .suflicientlyloose to-allow the hinge plates to rock on the screws when the assembling tool is removed. The assembling tool is then removed and the clampremoved and the seat hingeplates said plates having alining and trunnlon holes, second aliningand holding the hinge plates in proper position on the seat, third alining seat and cover, fourth drilling holes in the seat through the alining holes in the hinge plates, fifth inserting alining and fastening means in said drilled holes.
2. A method of assembling hinges on toilet seats and covers for shipmentconsisting in first pivotally mounting the cover between the hinge plates said plates having aliningv and trunnion holes, second alining and hold ing the hinge plates in proper position onthe seat through the previously formed openings designed for the trunnions of the'stud 7 posts, third alining seat and cover, fourth holes in the hinge plates, inserting alining and fastening means in said drilled holes.
3. A method of assembling hinges on toilet seats and covers and shipping same consisting in first pivotally mounting the cover between the-hinge plates said plates having alining and trunnion holes, second alining and holding the hinge plates in proper position on the seat through openings in the hinge plates and the seat designed to receive the trunnions of the stud posts, third alining seat and cover, fourth drilling holes in the seat through the alining holes in the hinge plates, fifth inserting alining and fastening means in said drilled holes and packing seat and cover in ab'oX whereby the cover may move on the seat wlthout exerting any lateral straln on the pivots.
4. A method of attaching hinge sections to a toilet seat and cover forpacking and shipping, ;consisting in first pivotally connecting and mounting the cover between the hinge plates having alining and trunnion holes, second alining and holding the hinge plates in proper position on the seat through openings inth'e hinge sections and the seat adapted to receive the trunnions carried by the postst'uds, third alining seat and cover,
fourth clamping the cover and seat together the trunnions of the stud posts, second alining seat and cover, third clamping seatand cover in alined position, fourth drilling holes in the seat through alining holes in the hinge plates, fifth inserting alining and fastening means 'in said drilled holes removing the alining means and the clamping and placing the seat and cover with the trunnionsof the stud posts removed from the openings in the hinge plates andthe seat in a carton.
'6. A method of-packingtoilet seats and covers preparatory to shipping consisting in connecting the hinge plates to theseat to have a rocking movement to allow of a lateral -1novement of the cover in respect to the seat and holding the hinge plates to the seat so that the openings inthe seat andhinge plates canhe alinedto allow the insertion of the trunnions of the stud posts and carton tightly fitting the seat.
