JACKET FOR HOT BOTTLES.

T all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that we, JOHN J. SCHWARTZ and Lou R. STRAUSS, citizens of the United States, and residents of the city of New York, borough of Manhattan, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Jacket for Hot Bottles, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

Our inventionrelates to jackets for hot bottles or bags; and has for its object the provision of a flexible covering adapted to be detachably secured to the bottle or bag, said jacket serving as a protector from injury to a person using the hot-water bag without diminishing the efficiency or quality of the water bag, which jacket, furthermore, prevents a too rapid radiation of heat from the water bag and serves, so to say, as an accumulator therefor.

WVith the above and other objects in view, the nature of which will more fully appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts as herein fully described, illustrated and claimed.

In the accompanying drawings, forming part of the application, similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views, and Figure 1 is an elevation of the jacket with the flap raised and the hot-water bottle removed from the jacket; Fig. 2 is a face elevation of the jacket surrounding a hot-water bottle; and Fig. 3 is a vertical section on line 33, Fig. 2.

Referring to the drawings, 5 represents the jacket, which consists of two blanks 6 and 7, preferably of felt but any other suit-' able material may be used therefor. The blank 7 preferably has both ends rounded, while blank 6 has only one end rounded, similar to one end of the blank 7. Blanks 6 and 7 are secured to each other by a tape 8 extending over the sides and around the edges of the blanks. The other end edge of -the blank 6 is sinuous and extends across forced by a tape member 11. The tape memhere used for connecting the two blanks and Specification of Letters Patent.

reinforcing the edges thereof prevent rapid deterioration of the jacket. The part of the blank 7 not covered by the blank 6 serves as a flap 12, and securing means 13 and 14 are provided on the blanks 6 and 7 whereby said flap can be attached to the blank 6, the folding of the blank being substantially on a line passing through the center of the aperture 10. The aperture 10 is sufficiently large to admit the stifi portion of the neck 15 of a water bottle 16. The jacket 5 can be easily put on or removed from the bottle by disengaging the fastening means 13 and 14: and by causing the flap 12 to pass over the neck of the bottle. The bottle can then be withdrawn. The reverse operation takes place when the bottle is placed in to the jacket.

It is self-evident that the lower end of the jacket can be of any suitable shape to conform to the shape of the bottle with which the jacket is to be used; also the fold of the flap 12 can be made accordingly. The lower end of the jacket is provided with a tab 17 for suspending the same,

From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, the advantage of the construction and operation of the device shown will be readily understood by those skilled in the art to which I with a jacket therefor, said jacket being formed of two blanks suitably secured together, one of said blanks having a flap adapted to be fastened to the other of said blanks, said flap having means through which the'neck of the water bottle is adapted to project.

2. In a jacket for hot-water bottles, a pair of blanks adapted to receive the bottles therebetween, one of said blanks having a portion adapted to fold over the second blank, fastening means for securing said foldable portion to the other blank, said foldable portion having an aperture therein adapted to engage the neck of a water bottle.

3. In a jacket for hot-water bottles, a pair of blanks adapted to receive the bottle therebetween, one of said blanks extending beyond the other, the extended portion forming a flap, means for securing said flap to the other blank, said flap having an aperture adapted to engage the neck of the bottle, and means reinforcing the edges of the blanks to prevent a rapid deterioration thereof.

4. In a jacket for hot-water bottles, a pair of felt blanks, tape about the edges of said blanks whereby said blanks are secured to each other, one of said blanks extending beyond one end of the other blank, said extending portion forming a flap, and means associated with the fiap and the other blank whereby said flap may be secured to said other blank, said flap having an aperture adapted to receive the neck of the hot bottle and being foldable on a line passing through the center of said aperture, said flap having means reinforcing the edges of the aperture;

5. In a jacket for hot-water bottles, a pair of blanks, tape about the edges of said blanks whereby they are secured to each other, one of said blanks extending beyond one end of the other blank, the extending portion forming a flap, a loop secured between said blanks at the end opposite to where said flap is formed, and securing means associated with said blanks whereby the flap can be locked to the other blank, said flap having an aperture adapted to engage the neck of the hot bottle, said Ha being foldable on a line passing through the center of said aperture and having tape reinforcing the edges of the aperture.

In testimony whereof we have signed our names to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
