To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, CHARLES H. TAYLOR, a citizen of the United States,and airesident of Newburh, in the county of Orange and State of York, have invented a new and Improved Bottle-Drainer, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to household appliances and has particular reference to means for supporting a milk bottle or other analogous container in an inverted position for draining after being washed and rinsed. While the device is shown as being especially designed for use in connection with milk bottles, it is obvious that the device is not so limited in use.
Among the objects of the improvement is to provide a cheap, strong and reliable device adapted to support a milk bottle or the like in such position that it may thoroughly drain with the mouth portion open or free, and whereby the bottle may be held in position to be collected by the milkman if desired.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists in the arrangement and combination of parts hereinafter described and claimed, and while the in vention is not restricted to the exact details of construction disclosed herein, still forthe purpose of illustrating a practical embodiment thereof reference is had to the accompanying drawings, in which like reference characters designate the same parts in the several views, and in which-- Figure l is a front elevation showing the device in operative position, as when supporting a common form of milk bottle; Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same; and Fig. 3 is a front elevation of the device with the parts occupying the position when the bottle is not present.
Referring more particularly to the drawings the draining device comprises a main supporting bar 10 having formed at its upper end an eye or loop 11 whereby the device may be suspended from a nail, screw or the like, upon a wall or. other support (not shown). lhe bar 10 has formed therein at spaced points a pair of loops 12 and 13 projecting forwardly from the plane of the eye 11, the openings through the loops being substantially horizontal. n the upper loop 12 are pivotally hung one or more bails or rings 14 adapted to lie in vertical planes close to the plane of the bar 10 when not occupied by the bottle. These rings 14 may be made in different sizes for the accommodation of bottles of diflerent diameters or capacities, and the loop 12 is provided with an eye large enough to provide free movement of the rings 14 independently of each other so that either of them may be swung freely into substantially operative position.
The loop 13 is formed near the lower end of the bar 10 and is otherwise of practically the same character as the loop 12 and hence is adapted to accommodate a plurality of difierent sizes of rings 15 adapted severally to engage the neck portion of a bottle of a size corresponding to the one passing through the upper ring.
The extreme lower end of the har 10 is formed into or carries a broad laterally extending loop 16v serving to lie squarely against the post, wall or other support to hold the device steady when in operation.
These devices may be made and sold in large quantities at a low price, and each household may therefore be supplied with one or more of them for use in the manner set forth. The use of the device obviates the unsanitary practice of draining a milk bottle while standing it upon its open end, the drainage water being prevented from free passage from the bottle in such position and hence not providing a proper drainage. Furthermore, a milk bottle supported as indicated in the drawings is held in a safe position without danger of its being toppled over and broken or becoming soiled again. From what has been stated, it is obvious that these devices may be so located as to hold empty bottles for the milkman or collector.
I claim 1.- The herein described bottle drainer comprising a vertical bar having an eye at its upper end and a bracing loop at its lower end and formed with a plurality of forwardly projecting loops between the upper and lower ends and a plurality of bottle supporting rings pivoted freely in said loops, substantially as set forth.
2. The herein described bottle drainer comprising, in combination, a main rib formed of a single piece of material bent to provide an eye at its upper end, a loop zontal eye, and bottle supporting rings susbrace zgzuilts lowefi' end lying in a. plaile c015 pended freely in said loops.
respon g to t e eye and havin orme between the upper and lower-en s a. pair CHARLES HENRY TAYLOR of spaced circular loops each projecting for Witnesses:
Wardly from the plane of the rib and brace RALPH BURGER, aforesaid and having a substantially hori- Rom. B. TAYLOR.
