oLos nn roe CONDIMENT-I-IOLDERS.
To all'whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JEFFERSON Pomona, a subject of the King of England, residing at Detroit, in the county of Wayne and.
State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Closures for Condiment-Holders," of which the fol-' lowing is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings. This invention relates to improvements in closures for condiment holders and other receptacles and its object is to provide a. simple and cheap construction which may be easily inserted or removed from the mouth of a receptacle and to provide a cork closure not liable to become destroyed by use having certain other new and useful features. g i
To these ends the invention consists in the matters hereinafter set forth and more particularly pointed out in the claims reference being had to the accompanying drawing in which- Figure 1 is a vertical section of a condiment holder having a closure embodying the invention in place therein; Fig. 2 isan enlarged transverse section of the closures detached; Fig. 3 is an inverted plan view of Fig. 2; Fig. 4: is a transverse section of a device embodying a modified construction; Fig. 5 is a section onthe line of Fig. 4 with the cork removed; and Fig. 6 is a sectional detail showing a further modification.
In the drawing A represents a condiment holder of a common construction having a fill opening 13 in its bottom around which is a downwardly extending flange C forming a base for supporting the receptacle in an upright position. This form'of holder is shown for convenience of illustration but it will be understood that the closure embodying thisinvention may be applied to any desired form of receptacle having a fill opening adapted to be closed by a cork.
The closure comprises a cork 1 of a size to fit tightly within the opening B and to strengthen the cork and prevent its being shoved through the opening into the interior of the receptacle, it is provided with a cap 2 formed of sheet metal, said cap being of greater diameter than the diameter of the large end of the cork, and preferably formed with a peripheral flange 3, the edge of which is adapted to engage the receptacle around the edge of the opening to tightly Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 2, 1915..
Application filed July 5,1912. Serial No. 707,960.
v close the same and obviate the possibility of shoving the cork entirely through the open mg.
To. firmly attach the cap to the cork, said cap is provided with prongs 4: which are struck up from the central portion of the cap, which portion is covered by the cork when the cap is secured in place thereon. These prongs are preferably formed by cutting the sheet netal of the cap along a diametral line and also along lines extending along said line and running into the same at a short distance from the edge of the cap, thus partially severing pointed portions of the metal from the cap which portions are turned laterally to form prongs and are forced through the cork and their ends 5, which project through the inner end of the cork, turned over thereon to firmly secure the cap to the cork.
The width ofthe flange 3 is such that it M will lie wholly within the recess in the bot-- tomof the receptacle inclosed bythe rib C and to facilitate the extracting of the closure from the opening, a bail or handle 6 is attached to the cap by piercing the flange at diametrically opposite points and forming the bail with inturned ends 7 to engage these openings in the flange. The bail is thus pivotally attached to the cap and forms a means when turned downward in the po s1tion shown inlhg. 2, for pulling the cork out of the openmg. When the cork is in place and the receptacle in use, the bail is turned upward at one side of the cap .in
alinement with the flange and is held in that position by the engagement of the bail with the flange, said bail being formed of spring wire bent so that it will frictionally engage the flange on the cap intermediate its ends.
In the construction shown in Figs. 4: and 5, the metal blank from which the cap is formed is stamped out with a strip 8 of metal extending laterally from the disk portion of the cap which is preferably formed 'with the edge flange 3 as in the previously described construction. This strip 8 is bent inwardly upon the disk to the center thereof and then bent again at right angles to extend laterally from the disk and form a prong 9 to be forced through the cork. This prong is split at its extreme end to form portions 10 projecting through the inner end of the cork and which may be turned or bent down upon said end to firmly secure the cork in place. The strip 8 is secured in T Fig;
place upon the disk by striking up therefrom at the right angle bend, a prong 11 and'this flange also forms afplace of at- 15' l tachment for the bail.
As shown in Fi 6 the flange?) may be rolled or turned inward after the bailhas -been inserted in the openings thus giving Obviously changes in the'construction maybe made Without departing from the spirit ofmy invention and I do not wish I a finish to the edge of the cap.
to limit myself to the particular form and comprising a jcork, a metal cap of greater diameter than the diameter of the cork hav- 30 construction shown.
I Having thus fully described my invention what Iclairn is e r 1. A device of the character described ing a laterally turned flange provided with oppositely disposed apertures, said cap havinga transverse slitted portion alining with wire with inturned ends to extend through said holes in the flange in proximity to the walls of said cork and adapted to frlctionally engage the flange intermediate its ends when turned into alinement therewith.
3. In a device of the character described, the combination of a cork, and a cap formed of sheet metal having an edge flange and an integral portion bent inward upon the cap and then bent at right angles to project laterally from the center of the cap to form a prong thereon extending through the cork to hold the cap upon the cork.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
