UNITED STATES PATENT FEIQ.
THOMAS '1. KEENAN, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, ASSIGNOR 0F ONE-HALF TO JOHN W. QUINDLEN, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
NON-REFILLABLE BOTTLE.
Application filed March '7,
To all whom 1' 2? may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS T. KEENAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented new and useful Improvements in Non-Refillable Bottles, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to new and useful improvements in non-refillable bottles, and has for its object to provide a bottle of this character from which the contents may be removed in the ordinary manner, but which will prevent the refilling of the same, thereby, over-coming the possibility of unauthorized persons using the bottle to dispose of goods, other than the original, and prevents the purchaser from being imposed upon, for when asking for a well known article, it is impossible to give him that which is inferior.
A further object of the invention is to produce a non-refillable bottle having a valve seat formed with the neck or mouth having a valve contacting therewith in which rests a movable weight in the form of a ball, mercury or the like, said valve being open at the top into which projects an extension carried by the inner casing having openings for the outlet of the contents, said openings being below the valve seat and an outer casing secured to the mouth of the bottle to prevent tampering, said outer casing holding the inner casing in place.
'With these ends in view, this invention consists in the details of construction and combination of elements hereinafter set forth and then specifically designated by the claims.
In order that those skilled in the art to which this invention appertains may understand how to make and use the same, I will describe its construction in detail, referring by numeral to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification, in which Figure 1, is a longitudinal sectional view of the neck of a bottle made in accordance with my improvement showing it in an upright position. Fig. 2, a similar view showing it inverted for removing the contents, and Fig. 3, a longitudinal sectional view of the valve.
In carrying out my invention as here embodied, 2 represents the bottle, having a Specification of Letters Patent.

1912. Serial No. 682,232.
neck 3 provided with an annular flange 4, at its upper or outer end. With the outer edge of said flange 4, is formed an upturned flange 5, having an annular groove 6, for the reception of a suitable cement 7 From the inner edge of the bottle, or neck projects a valve seat extension 8, the edge of which is shaped to form a valve seat 9. Between the upturned flange 5 and the valve seat extension 8 is produced the cavity or groove 10 in which rests the lower end of the inner casing 11, said inner casing consisting of the side walls 12, having an annular flange 13, formed therewith and carrying at the top'a projection or stop 14 which limits the outward movement of the valve. This projection or stop is preferably formed integral with the casing and is in the form of an inverted cone. 15 is the outer casing having a mouth 16 which becomes the mouth of the bottle when completed. WVith the lower edge of said outer casing is formed the outwardly projecting flange 17, with the outer edge of which is formed the downwardly projecting flange 18 adapted to fit over the flange 4 of the bottle. Inside of the flange 18, is formed with the flange 17, an attaching flange 19 adapted to register with the groove 6. The valve 20 consists of a valve head 21, a valve stem 22, a bulb 23. The valve head 21 is open or cup like, and into the cavity thus formed extends the projection or stop 14, and when the valve is closed, said valve and the inner end of the projection 14 are spaced apart which allows the valve to move a short distance or sufficiently to permit the outflow of the contents of the bottle, when said bottle is inverted. After the weight 24 is placed in the valve, the upper end of the stem is closed in any suitable manner to prevent the displacement of said weight. The weight 24 is movable within the bulb and a portion of the stem, and is in the form of mercury, a ball or the like. From this description, it will be seen that the valve is securely incased and held against undue movements by the inner casing, said casing being held in its position by the outer casing which is secured to the flange of the bottle by a suitable cement.
In practice, when the bottle is inverted, the movable weight 24 will enter the valve stem and come in contact with the closure giving the valve its initial movement for opening causing it to unseat, at which time, the contents will pass from the bottle into the inner casing, then through the openings 25 in the side walls of said easing into the chamber 28 formed between the two casings, then out through the mouth 16. As soon as the bottle is tipped to bring it back to the upright position, the movable weight 24 will run back into the bulb 23, and as soon as said weight reaches the limit of its move ment, while the bottle is in this position, it will exert a certain force upon the valve to cause the same to seat itself. If an attempt is made to refill the bottle by pressure, the liquid will have to pass through the open ings 25 then upward into the interior of the inner casing at which time the walls of the projection 14; will deflect it into the valve head and cause the valve to seat thereby preventing the refilling of the bottle.
Of course, I do not wish to be limited to the exact details of construction as here shown as these may be varied within the limits of the appended claims without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Having thus fully described my inventicn, what I claim as new and useful, is
1. In combination, a receptacle having a neck projecting therefrom, provided with a valve seat, a cup like valve head adapted to coast with said valve seat, a valve stem carried by said head, a. bulb formed with said valve stem, a movable weight inclosed within the bulb, and stem, an inner casing having outlets and provided with a stop projecting into the cup-like head of the valve, said casing surrounding the valve and mounted on the receptacle neck, an outer casing surrounding the inner casing and coact-ing therewith, said outer casing having a mouth produced therefrom, and means for securing the outer casing to the neck of the receptacle.
2. A non-refillable receptacle comprising a body, a neck projecting therefrom, a flange produced with the outer end thereof, an annular upturned flange produced with the outer end of the first named flange, a
valve seat extension projecting fro-m the inner edge of the receptacle neck, the edge of which is shaped to form a valve seat, a valve co-acting with said valve seat, an inner casing comprising, side walls having openings therein, a flange produced from the lower edge of said side walls and a stop projecting into the interior of said casing, said inner casing resting upon the flange formed with the receptacle neck between the upturned flange and the valve seat extension, so that the openings in said casing are below the edge of the valve seat extension and outer casing resting upon the flange formed with the inner casing and secured to the receptacle neck thereby holding said inner casing in position.
8. A non-refillable receptacle comprising a body, a neck projecting therefrom, a flange produced with the outer end thereof, an annular upturned flange formed with the outer edge of the first named flange, said upturned flange having an annular groove therein, a valve seat extension projecting from the inner edge of the receptacle neck,
the edge of which is shaped to form a valve seat, a valve co-acting with said valve seat, an inner casing having openings therein adapted to surround the valve, an outer casing having a mouth produced therefrom and provided with a flange adapted to fit over the outer circumference of the flange formed with the receptacle neck to prevent tampering, an annular attaching flange formed with said outer casing adapted to register with the annular groove in the upturned flange and a suitable cement in the groove for fastening the outer casing to the receptacle neck, a portion of said outer casing co-acting with the inner casing to hold the latter in position.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto affixed my signature in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
