COMB INATION-JAR.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 5, 1912.
Application filed September 15, 1910. Serial No. 582,192.
To all 'whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, THEoDoRE C. VVHEATON,
a citizen of the United States, residing at Millville, in the county of Cumberland and State of New Jersey, have invented 'a new and useful Combination-J ar, of which the following is a specification.
It is the object of this invention to provide a closure for areceptacle, which said closure Y j closure and the upper edge of the receptaclek i i may readily be removed.
Another object of the invention is to provide a receptacle of novel and improved form, to provide a closure for the receptaf cle, of novel and improved form, and to provide an improved clamping device whereby the closure may be held in place upon the recept-acle.
Another'object of the invention is to provide, in a vented closure, a novel means for j the seat 11. This stopper 14 may befash- ,j
stopping the vent. l
In the. drawings,-F1gure 1 shows the invention in vertical longitudinal section,`
parts being in elevation; Fig. 2 is a 'fragmental perspective, showing the uppermost v portion of the receptacle; Fig. 3 is a sec-l tional perspective of a portion of the closure,
showing one form of means for'closing the i vent; Fig. 4 is a sectional perspective, show-v ing a `portion of the closure, a, modified means for stopping the vent being disclosed and Fig. 5 is a perspective of the clamp.
In carrying out the invention thereis provided a receptacle 1 and a closure 2. The receptacle may be of any form, and so may the closure. Likewise, the closure 2 may be held upon the receptacle 1 in any desired manner. However, in order to present a concrete embodiment, without binding myself to any specific means for securing t-he closure 2 upon the receptacle 1, I have provided the receptacle 1, upon its outer surface, and adjacent its open end, with a sinuous, outstanding rib 3, adapted to be engaged by the extremities of a clamp 4, the intermediate portion of which bears against the closure 2. The clamp 4 is curved, adjacent its ends, as denoted by the numeral 6, to form inwardly projecting heads 5, adapted to engage beneath the sinuous rib 3 of the receptacle 1. Upon its lower edge, the clamp 4 is provided with a pointed, depending projection 7, adapted to register in a depression 8 in the closure 2.
The closure 2 is dished upwardly, as shown at 9, in order to receive more effectively, the thrust of the projection 7 of the .of the portion 9 of the closure.
In its dished portion 9, the closure 2 is depressed in its upper surface, to form a seat 11, constituting an integral part-of the cloc ioned fromany desired material; for 1n-' stance, as shown in Fig. 1, la bitof'cement 1 or soft solder may be employed. f Y l The closure 2 may, as shown inl Fig. 3, be
provided with an arm v17'-, permanently -pivl oted at 18 At-o the closure 2, andmovable in a plane substantially parallel with the plane Adjacent itsfree end, the, arm 1K7 carriesastopper n19, heldin place by a rivet 20 which engages the Vvarm-17, or in any other desired manner.
This stopper 19 is preferably fashioned from rubber, and is therefore resilient, the arm 17 being fashioned from resilient material, preferably a strip of spring metal. The stopper 19 is adapted to register inthe seat 11, to seal the vent 12. The resilient arm 17 will permit the stopper 19 to be lifted out of the seat 11V and swung to one side, the resiliency of the arm 17 likewise afording resilient means for holding the stopper 19 within the seat 11 to close the vent 12.
If desired, as shown in Fig. 4, the arm 21, carrying the stopper 19, may be twistedv intermediate its ends as denoted by the numeral 22, so that one end of the arm 21 maybe pivoted, as shown at 24, to the upstanding portion of an angle bracket 23, which said bracket 23 is secured to the closure 2. y
The device may be operated in a variety of ways. For instance, referring to Fig. 1, the contents of the receptacle 1 may be heated, as is common in preserving processes, and while the contents of the receptacle are in heated condition, the closure 2 may be mounted in place, and held temporarily by means of the clamp 4. The seat 11 may be filled with cement, solder or the like, as shown at 14, closing the vent 12. As the contents of the receptacle 1 cool oif, a partial vacuum will be eected within the receptacle 1', causing the closure 2 to be forced, by external atmospheric pressure, closely against the washer 10. The clamp 4 may then be removed.
l When it is desired to remove the closure 2 from the receptacle 1, the stopper 19 may be picked out of the seat 11, whereupon the partial vacuum within the receptacle 1 will be destroyed, ermitting the closure 2 to be removed readily. l
If desired, the stopper 19 may be mounted in place in the closure 2 before the preserving operation is begun. Likewise, if desired, the clamp 4 may be permitted to remain upon the device, until it is desired to remove the closure 2. At this point it should be recalled, that the clamp 4 and the sinuous rib 3, are shown merely for the purpose of illustrating one novel means for holding the closure 2 upon the receptacle 1; likewise, let it be noted that this specific means for holding the closure 2 upon the receptacle 1 may be modified, without jeopardizing the utility of the invention.
The operation of the device shown in Fig. 3 differs not greatly from the operation of the device shown in Fig. 1. Referring to Fig. 3, it will be seen that the arm 17, pivoting at 18, will permit the stopper 19 to be disposed within the seat 11, the stopper 19 being removable from the seat 11, to permit the air to flow through the vent 1, into the inside of the receptacle 1.
Referring to Fig. 4, the arm 21 may be moved in a plane substantially at right angles to the plane of the closure, to permit the stopper 19 to register in the seat 11. This stopper 19, being resilient, will be drawn closely into the seat 11 by the diiference in atmospheric pressures upon the inside and upon the outside ofthe receptacle 1.
In conclusion, it may be stated that the drawings show typical embodiments merely, and that divers changes in the form, proportions, size, and minor details of the structure may be made, without departing from the spirit of the invention or in any wise jeopardizing the utility thereof.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is The combination wit-h a closure having a vent, of a rigid arm pivoted to the closure for movement only in a plane at right angles to the plane of the closure; and a resilient stopper carried by the free end of the arm and adapted to drop gravitationally into the vent, and to be held in the vent solely by a diminution of pressure within the receptacle to which the closure is applied.
In ltestimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto afliXed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
