Description
UNITED STATES MICHAEL S. KAVANAGH, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN.
IMPROVEMENT IN OIL-CANS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 117,544, dated August 1, 1871.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MICHAEL S. KAVANAGH, of Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Oiling-Cans; and I do declare that the following is a true and accurate description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing and to the letters of reference marked thereon, and being a part of this speciication, in which my invention is shown in perspective, with such parts of the can broken out as are necessa-ry to show the Working parts.
The nature of this invention relates to an improvement in the construction of oiling-cans, so arranged that the ow of oil through the spout is always under the control of the hand, and tha-t it will not lose any of its contents if accidentally overturned.
The invention consists in the mechanism for operating a valve in the spout, while at the saine time it allows of access to the interior of the necessary air, the pressure of which forces the oil out of the spout when' desired; also, in a valve which is closed when the implement is elevated in the position shown in the drawing for use, but open at all other times to allow the escape of air from the interior, thereby preventing the expansion of the air in the can,wl1en warmed, from forcing out the oil; also, in the combination of all the parts, as and for the purposes more fully hereinafter set forth.
In the accompanying drawing, A represents an oiling-can, provided with the usual spout, B. In the spout is placed a proper seat, C, to receive the valve D, which is secured to the top of the rod E, which passes downward to the bottom of the can, whence it turns upward through the tube F, and terminates in a knob, G. At the bend ofthe rod, near the bottom of the can, the rod engages vwith the bale of a helical spring, H, which is secured to the opposite side of the can. The tube F may be placed outside the can, as shown, or inside the same, .if preferred. In the top of the can is a vent-hole, I, and J' is a valve secured to one arm of the bell-crank K, while the other arm is weighted. This bellcrank, with its attachments, is secured to the inner side of the top in such a manner that when the can is standing upon its bottom thevalve docs not cover the vent-hole; but when in use, and in the position shown in the drawing, the weighted arm of the bell-crank compels the valve to close the vent. When this is done pressure upon the knob G withdraws the valve D from its seat, allowing an outiiow of the oil, while the necessary pressure of air is obtained through the tube F.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination of the can A, spout B, seat C, valve D, rod E, tube F, spring H, valve J, and bell-crank K, when the several parts are constructed, arranged, and operated substantially as described and shown, for the purposes setfOrth.
