FASTENER FOR MILK-CAN COVERS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. so, 1913.
Application filed. February 24, 1913. Serial No. 750,316.
To all whom it may ooncern Be it known that I, J AMES P. ANDERSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lisbon, in the county of Ransom and State of North Dakota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fasteners for Milk-Can Covers, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention comprehends certain new and useful improvements in fasteners and relates more specifically to fastening means for covers of milk cans and the like.
An object of the invention is to provide a fastener which may be readily applied to the covers of milk cans and the like and which will securely hold the same in position upon the cans.
Another object is to provide a fastener comprising a U-shaped spring member having the ends of its legs turned outwardly in opposite directions and adapted for engagement through suitable openings pro vided in the cover and the upper portion of the can, means being also provided for securing the U-shaped member to the cover.
A further object is to provide a fastener of this character which will be of extremely simple construction, highly efiicient and effective in use and which may be readily and cheaply manufactured and applied.
With the above and other objects in view, this invention consists in the novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter more fully described, claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l, is a longitudinal section of a conventional form of milk can and cover, the latter being secured in position by means of my improved fastener and the lower portion of the can being shown in elevation. Fig. 2, is an enlarged fragmentary elevational view, showing one of the fasteners secured to the inner face of the cover and extended through the cover and can. Fig. 3, is an enlarged perspective view of one of the fasteners, removed.
Referring more specifically to the drawings in which similar reference characters designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, 1 designates the U-shaped spring member which is constructed of spring wire or other suitable material and has the ends of its legs turned outwardly in opposite directions as shown at 2 and adapted for engagement through the registering openings 3 and 4 in the upper portion of the can 5 and the cover 6 respeotively.
The body portion of the U-shaped member is engaged through the extended and turned edge portion 7 of the plate 8 which is adapted to be secured to the upper portion of the cover 6 by rivets 9 or other suitable means, it being understood that the plate is secured near the edge of the cover with the extended and turned portion 7 projecting downwardly from the edge of the cover in order that the legs of the U-shaped member may be engaged through the openings 3 and 4, as will be clearly apparent.
It will be seen that the body portion of the U-shaped member is adapted to rotate in the extended and turned edge portion 7 of the plate 8, thus permitting the legs of the U-shaped member 1 to be swung toward or away from the can, as may be desired.
When the cover 6 is placed in position in the upper end of the can 5, saidcover is rotated until the opening or openings 4 in the same register with the opening or openings 3 in the wall of the can 5. The legs of the U -shaped members are then pressed toward one another and the turned ends 2 thereof engaged through the openings 3 and 4 and allowed to spread, the turned ends 2 assum ing their normal positions pass the opposite ends of the openings 3 and4 and preventing the cover 6 from being raised out of position or turned within the upper end of the can.
From the foregoing it will be seen that I have provided a simple means for securing covers of milk cans and the like in position and while I have shown two of the fasteners secured to the cover, it will be understood that any number of the fasteners may be employed, a corresponding number of openings 3 and 4 being provided in the can 5 and cover 6, respectively.
While I have shown the preferred embodiment of my invention, it will be understood that I do not wish to be limited to this specific form, as minor changes in the details of construction may be resorted to within the scope of the appended claim Without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Having thus described my invention, What I claim is An article of manufacture comprising a cover fastener including a plate having a portion of one edge extended and turned upon itself, and a spring member having its main portion inclosed by the extended and turned edge portion of said plate, the
Copies of this ,patent may be (obtained for five cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of 'Patents,'
ends of the spring member being bent at right angles and directed in opposite d1- rections and looped, substantially as and forthe purpose set forth. 7
In testimony whereof I hereunto aflix my signature in the presence of two W1t- Washington, 13.0.
