NON-REFILLABLE BOTTLE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 1, 1915.
Application filed July 10, 1914. Serial No. 850,133.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EUGENE RE, formerly a subject of the King of Italy, but in accordance with the naturalization laws of the United States having declared my intention to become a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of St. Louis, State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Non-Refillable Bottles, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to non-refillable bottles and embodies novel improvements in the non-refillable bottle which constitutes the subject-matter of my pending application Serial No. 845,579, filed June 17, 1914, the primary object residing in the provision of a non-refillable bottle having fewer parts.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a non-refillable bottle which is simple in construction, efiective in operation, and comparatively cheap to manufacture.
Further, the present invention consists of the novel features of construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings forming part of this specification, in which like .numbers of reference denote like parts wherever they occur, Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of the neck portion of a non-refillable bottle embodying the present invention showing the same in an upright position; Fig. 2 is a similar view of same, shown inverted; Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the valve removed; and Fig. 4 is a sectionalview on the line 4-4, Fig. 1. v
The casing 1 preferably formed of porcelain (though, if desired, may be formed of glass, metal, or the like), consists of two semi-cylindrical halves 2, which have their adjoining longitudinal edges rabbeted as indicated at 3, Fig. 4, so as to interlock, a slight space being left in each rabbeted junction to receive a strip or piece 4 of cork, rubber, paper, cement, or any other suitable material to prevent leakage. The halves 2 of the casing 1 are held securely together by means of tinfoil 5 or the like which is arranged to surround the lower portion of said casing and, also, the upper portion of the neck of the bottle 6, so as to secure the easing on the neck of the bottle, a washer 7 of any suitable material, such, for instance, as cork, leather, rubber, paper, or the like being placed between the lower end of the casing 1 and the top of the bottle to prevent leakage.
Depressions or recesses in the inner faces of the halves 2 of the casing 1 register and unite to form a valve-chamber 8 within the upper part of said casing and a valve-chamber 9 within the lower part of said casing, said valve chambers communicating with each other through the medium of an opening 10, which is preferably arranged to taper downwardly to form a valve-seat for the upper valve 11, and the lower valve-chamber 9 communicating with the interior of the bottle through the medium of an opening 12, which is, also, arranged to taper downwardly to form a valve-seat for the lower valve 13, as shown in Fig. 1. The valves 11 and 13, which may, also, be formed of porcelain or the like, are preferably of the conical type and are connected by a stem 14, which is preferably formed integrally with both valves, being so arranged in spaced relation that both valves will rest upon their respective seats when the bottle is in an upright position, as shown in Fig. 1, so as to prevent refilling of the bottle, but when the bottle is inverted, as illustrated in Fig. 2, or tilted sufficiently to allow the valves to move outwardly, both valves will leave their seats simultaneously to allow the liquid within the bottle to flow therefrom. The stem 14 bears an enlarged portion 15, the latter being preferably cylindrical in shape and of such size as to fit closely to the walls of the valvechamber 9, while at the same time being capable of moving longitudinally within said valve-chamber not only to limit the movement of the valves 11 and 13, but, also, to center said valves with respect to the valveseats 10 and 12, respectively. An opening 16 or a plurality of such openings in the enlarged portion 15 of the stem 14 permit the liquid to flow therethrough, when the valves are unseated as hereinabove described, and an opening 17 in the outer end of the casing 1 permits the liquid to flow from the valvechamber 8.
A stopper 18 may be provided for the opening 17 and may be secured in place by a seal 19 of sheet lead, sealing wax, or other suitable material until it is desired to use the contents of the bottle, whereupon the seal is broken and the stopper is removed. The casing 1 may be provided with an annular rib 20 or a plurality of such ribs or other suitable means at or adjacent to the upper end thereof to hold the seal 19 in place, and, in like manner, the bottle 6 may be provided with an annular rib 21 or a plurality of such ribs or other suitable means to hold the wrapping of tinfoil thereon.
When the bottle stands in an upright position, as shown in Fig. 1, the valves 11 and 13 rest upon their seats 10 and 12, respectively, and thereby prevent liquid from being poured into the bottle. If it is desired to pour the contents of the bottle therefrom, the stopper 18 is removed and the bottle is tilted or inverted as illustrated in Fig. 2, whereby the Weight of the valves 11 and 13, sometimes assisted by the pressure of the liquid, move same outwardly away from their seats 10 and 12 and thereby permit the liquid in the bottle to flow out through the opening 12, valve-chamber 9, opening or openings 16, opening 10, valve-chamber 8, and the outlet 17. Restoration of the bottle to its upright position, reseats the valves as hereinabove described to prevent liquid from being poured into the bottle. Should any attempt be made to forcibly inject a liquid into the bottle While the latter is inclined or inverted, the pressure of the liquid Will seat the valves 11 and 13.
Various changes in the details of'construction and arrangement of parts may be made without departing from the nature and spirit of the present invention.
I claim:
1. In a non-refillable bottle the combination with a bottle of a casing separated-longitudinally'into a plurality of parts of such diameter as to adapt it to be seated upon end upon the neck of said bottle, fluid controlling valve means located within said casing and a retaining wrapping extending around said casing and overlapping the bottle neck, said wrapping serving to secure the casing to the bottle and to hold the parts of the casing together.
2. In a non-refillable bottle the combination with a bottle of a valve casing divided longitudinally into a plurality of parts and seated upon its end upon the neck of the bottle, said casing being internally recessed to form a plurality of valve chambers and valve seats, a pair of valves arranged to engage said valve seats, a connecting stem between said valves, guiding means arranged to engage the inner wall of the casing, said guiding means being carried by said stem and means for binding the sections of the casing against lateral displacement with relation to each other and against longitudinal displacement with relation to the bottle neck.
3. In a non-refillable bottle the combination with a bottle of a valve casing divided longitudinally into a plurality of parts and of such diameter as to adapt it to be seated upon end upon the neck of said bottle in longitudinal alinement therewith, said casing being internally recessed to form a plurality of valve chambers and valve seats, said valve seats being formed complementally upon all of the parts of the valve casing, a pair of valves arranged to engage said valve seats, a connecting stem between said valves, guiding means arranged to engage the inner wall of the casing, said guiding means being carried by said stem, and a flexible wrapping overlapping the sections ofthe casing and the bottle neck to thereby bind the sections of the casing together and to secure the casing upon the bottle neck.
'In testimony whereof I hereunto afiix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
