GASOLENE OR LIKE CAN.
Application filed October 2.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALFRED S. OLIVER, J12, a citizen of the United States, residing at Medical Lake, in the county of Spokane and State of Vashington, have invented a new and useful Gasolene or like Can, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in gasolene or like cans which are specially designed for use as filling cans.
It is one of the objects of my invention to provide a filling can adapted for use in connection with a strainer and to provide the can with a spout having a suflicient in-take capacity from the strainer to afford a full capacity discharge at the spout end.
A further object is to provide a filling can of such shape and proportion as to facilitate its employment in filling tanks with which connection for this purpose-is not readily accessible. Y
A still further object is to provide an improved form of detachable connection between the spout and the can whereby a straining element may be conveniently and effectively interposed and anchoredtherebetween.
Further objects and novel features of the invention will be more fully described in connection with the accompanying drawing and will be more particularly pointed out in and by the appended claim,
In the drawing: Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrating one form of my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view thereof, on an enlarged scale. Fig. 3 is a view in elevation, looking in the direction of arrow 3, of Fig. 2 with the spout removed. Fig. at is a view in side elevation of the spout detached from the can. Fig. 5 is a sectional view on line 5-5 of Fig. 2.
Like characters of reference designate similar parts throughout the different figures of the drawing.
As illustrated, 1 designates a can body having back and top handles 2 and 3, which are preferably rigidly connected therewith. The can body is shown provided with an integrally formed cover 4 which extends rearwardly from the spout portion of the can and which has an open mouth 5 through which the can may be filled. By the provision of this form of cover the can can be tilted at a relatively considerable angle without spilling the contents through the Patented Feb. 9, 1915.
1913. Serial No. 792,999.
top thereof, and also, the can itself can be readily filled.
In the normally vertical wall of the can I form a spout opening 6 which preferably extends substantially throughout the height of the can. Surrounding said opening is a spout attaching means which may comprise a strip of angle iron having a strainer or abutting flange 7, and a strainer stretching flange 8. A bolt 9 extends through the can body and said abutting flange 7 and projects a considerable distance therefrom, several bolts being employed as indicated in Fig. 3.
A spout is indicated as a whole at 10 and the same comprises an in-take portion 11, adapted to be secured to the can, and a reduced discharge spout portion 12 which preferably extends upwardly and outwardly from the spoutproper. About the in-take portion 11 of the spout I provide fastening means which may comprise a band 13 having a strainer abutting flange 14 and a spout fastening flange 15. The flanges 14 and 15 are provided with registering openings for passage therethrough of the bolts 9 and on the outer ends of said bolts I providewings or thumb nuts 16 whereby the abutting flanges 7 and 14 may be clamped in tight relation.
A strainer of chamois or other suitable material is indicated at 17 and may be apertured for passage therethrough of the bolts 9 so that the strainer can be interposed between the abutting flanges 7 and 14, which flanges also function as clamping flanges. The margin of the strainer is stretched over the flange 8 when the spout is attached to the can so that when the wing nuts are tightened up that portion of the strainer covering the opening 6 will be held taut.
It will be noted that the area of the spout body is very greatly in excess, as regards internal dimensions, with respect to the cross section of the spout portion 12 so that notwithstanding the retarding action of the strainer this excess area will afford and expose such a surface of the strainer for passage therethrough of the contents as will insure not only a rapid but a full capacity flow or discharge through the spout portion 12. By means of the relatively large opening 6 I first afford a relatively considerable flow into the spout, irrespective as to whether or not the can is tilted from the vertical as the contents will Copies of initially seek a level in the spout in-take portion or body equal to the levelof the contents in the can so that there will be a 'surplus in the spout body over that which could be discharged through the spout portion 12. However, even after the can has been tilted and this first surplus discharged, the capacity of the exposed portion of the strainer will be such as to insure passage therethrough in excess of the capacity for discharge of the spout portion 12. The depth of the spout body 11, as indicated by line wa3 as compared with the usual form of spout indicated by dotted line 18, illustrates the reservoir feature which my improved form of spout provides.
The spout portion merges into the spout body on gradually curved lines so as to provide a discharge portion 12 of elongated form having a reach sufiicient to facilitate connection with tanks in the most inaccessible positions in which they are ever located.
While I have herein shown and described one specific embodiment of my invention I do not wish to be limited thereto except for such limitations as the claim may import. I claim 'In a gasolene or like filling can, a can body having a spout opening therein, a strip of angle formation bordering said opening and-having one angle portion secured in abutting relation against said body with the edge of said angle portion flush with this patent may be obtained for the margin of said opening and theremaining angle portion of said strip projecting outwardly from said can body, a spout having a can body attaching end, a strip of substantially channel formation extending circumferentially about said attaching end and the inner channel side of said spout strip being substantially in the plane of the edges of said attaching end and adapted to abut against the attached angle portion of said bordering strip, the outer channel portion of said spout strip being reduced in height with respect to the inner channel portion to lie Within the projecting angle portion of said can strip, a strainer covering said opening and extending between the can at tached angle portion of said can strip and the inner channel side or portion of said spout strip and projecting outwardly over the reduced outer channel side so as to be stretched about the free edge of the projecting angle portion, and a plurality of bolts extending through the can body and the angle and channel portions of said strips and provided with nuts for tightly holding the spout against said can body, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I hereby afiix my signature in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
