Letters Patent No. 107,582,
Y., .AND WILLIAM N. NUMSEN, OF MARYLAND.
lated September 20, 1870. i
IMPRovIiI/IENT IN BoTTLIz-coRKING MACHINES.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and part of the same To all whom it may concer-n VBre it known that we., JULIUs WOLEF, of New York city, in the county and State vof New York,
yand WILLIAM N. NUMsEN, of Baltimore, in' thc ycounty' of Baltimore and State of Maryiamhhave- Figure 1 represents a perspective view of our machine.
Figure 2 represent-s a vertical section lthrough a portion of the machine, showing the main parts on an enlarged scale.
Similar letters of reference, where they occur, denote like parts in all the igures. -l
Our invention relates, first, to the funnel or mouthpiece used for introducing a cork into the neck of a bottle or jar, which funnel is formed with perforations, to allow theair-contained in the bottle to Vescape when the cork is driven in, as, otherwise, the air would be inclosed in, and, in many cases, the contents of the bottle or jar would be spoiled by the presence of this compressed air.
Our invention further relates tothe manner in which the mouth-piece is supported by a lever, above the neck ofthe bottle, so as to relieve the' bottle of the pressure exerted by the plunger inforcing the cork down in the mouth-piece, and to prevent the breaking of the bottle, which happens occasionally when using the ordinary method. i
Our invention further relates to the manner in which the cork is inaliy introduced into the neck of the bottle or jar, by lifting the mouth-piece, and lever-connected with it, cti" the neck offthe bottle, and forcing the cork against the plunger, which is held stationary, which operation also releases the bott-le from the apparatus at the same 'time that the cork is driven into the mouth ofthe bottle.
Qur' invention further relates to the combination ofthe hinged lever and swivel-piece, for carrying the funnel and pipe, through which` the cork is driv' en, for the purposcof maintaining the horizontality of the funnel as the lever swings on its hinge.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use our invention, we will proceed to describe the same with reference to the drawings. 1
' Near the top of a standard, A, is pivoted, at a, a hand-lever, B, which has' hingedto itsl under side, at l), the plunger C.
AThis plunger passes through suitable bearings attached tothe standard A, allowing it to move up andA down in a direct line.
To the standard A is also pivoted, at d, the lever` D, which is supported near its free end by a rest, E.
This lever D carries a funnel or mouth-piece, f, supported by a swivel-piece, F, which has bearings y, passing through the lever D, allowing the mouthpiece f to have a rocking motion, and remain in a horizontal, or nearly so, position, when the lever D is lifted oifits rest E. v
The mouth-piece has, extending downward, a thin pipe, f', which enters and fits loosely into the neck of the bottle or jar H.
This pipe f is perforated with small holes h, to allow the air contained in the bottle to escape more readily when a cork is introduced into its upper portion.
The rest -E has attached to it a stop, It', to arrest the motion of the lever D, when it is raised with toc ymuch force.
The operation of coi-king av bott-le or jar with this machine is as follows:
The bottle H being filled with any desired substance, the lever D is lifted up, and the bottle H brought on the platform I, the central' portion of which could be made adjustable, to adapt the machinc to bottlesof different heights. Then the lever D is brought down, so as to bear on therest E; at the same time the thin pipe f enters the neck of the bottle, fitting it loosely.. A cork is then introduced into the mouth-piece f, and pressed down, by*v means of the plunger C and-lever B, to near the.
bottom of the thin pipe f', the air escaping in front of it through vthe-small perforations h, and between the neck of the bottle and the pipe f; the plunger G is held down rigidly, andthe lever D is lifted up, which forces the cork'down through the funnel or pipe f', and into the neck of thebottle. The plunger G mag.Y then be raised, and the corked bottle removed.
The plunger C can also be supplied with a hollow pcrforating pin, l, to pierce through the cork when the plunger is brought down, thus allowing the air to escape from under the cork through the hollow p in Z and holes mi, drilled through the end ot' the plunger.
Having thus fully described the construction and operation of our invention,
What we claim therein as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In combination with the funnel or mouth-piece f of a machine for cor-king bottles, the perforated pipe f', fitting loosely in the neck of the bottle, to.
allow the air in the bottle to escape during the operation of forcing the cork therethrough, substantiel- Aly :is described.
2. The level' D, carrying the month-piece f, when hinged to the frame, in combination with the support E, t-o relieve the bottle of thepressure when the cork is driven do\vn','$ubstantially :is and forthe purpose set forth.
3.1111 a. machine for corking bottles, the lever D, :is described,rin combination with the mouth-piece f and perforated pipel f', so that the cork is introduced into the neck of the bottle by lifting the lever D and holding down the plunger O, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
4. In combination with thehinged endcontrolled lever D, the hinged or swivel-piece- F, for carrying the funnel nud pipe7 as and for the purpose described.
