JOHN W. COWELL, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-THIRD T0 RUDOLPH KARWIESE, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
OIL-CAN.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 7, 1915.
Application filed October 20, 1913. Serial No. 796,256.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JOHN IV. CowELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Oil-Cans, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to oil-cans provided with a valve for controlling the discharge and preventing leakage of oil from the spout if the can should be accidentally knocked over on its side, or inverted.
The invention has for its object to provide a simple and efficient valve mechanism which can be applied to any ordinary oilcan having a flexible bottom, the latter serving to actuate the valve.
In order that the invention may be better understood, reference is had to the accompanying drawing, in which a vertical section of the can and the valve mechanism is shown.
Referring to the drawing, 5 denotes the body of an oil-can having a flexible bottom 6 and a spout 7, which latter is removably connected to the can body. These parts form an ordinary oil-can, a detailed descrip tion of which is not necessary.
The valve mechanism shown in the drawing is constructed and arranged as follows To the under side of the base 8 of the spout 7, inside the can body 5, is secured a depending bracket or supporting 7 member having laterally spaced side walls 9 connected at their lower ends by a cross-piece 10 having a vertical guide aperture 11. Extending across the side walls 9 and supported thereby, is a pin 12 on which is pivoted a lever 13 carrying at one end a valve 1 1 and having connected to its other end a valve-actuating rod 15. The valve seats on the outlet aperture of the spout 7, and it is held normally seated by a spring 16 pressing against its under side. The lower end of the rod 15 is screw-threaded to receive acap 17 which passes through the aperture unseat the valve, and when the pressure against the can bottom is removed to allow the same to spring back, the spring 16 tilts the lever in the opposite direction to reseat the valve and restore the parts to their norpal position.
I claim:
The combination with a can having a flexible bottom and an outlet spout having its passageway unobstructed throughout its entire length and provided with a base having a valve seat from which the spout passage way extends; of a valve located in the can beneath the spout base to engage the aforesaid valve seat, a lever carrying the valve, a closing spring engaging the valve, a de pending bracket secured to the base of the spout inside the body of the can, said bracket having laterally spaced walls and a connecting cross-piece at the lower ends of said walls, said cross-piece being provided with a guide aperture, a pin carried by the aforesaid walls and extending transversely therebetween, on which pin the aforesaid lever is pivoted, and a rod connected to the lever and extending through the aforesaid guide aperture, said rod having a lower end portion which is in engagement with the flexible bottom of the can.
i In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JOHN W. OOWELL.
