JOHN H. OSHEA AND CHARLES H. FENTON, 0F CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, .ASSIGNORS T0 THE N. K. '.FAIRBANK COMPANY, 0F CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, A CORPORATION OIE NEW JERSEY.
FRICTION-LID CAN.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed March 5, 1915. Serial No. 12,260.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that we, JOHN H. OSHEA and CHARLES H. FnN'roN, citizens of the United States, and residents of Chicago, in the county of Cook and ,State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Friction-Lid Cans; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to improvements in friction lid cans and consists of the matters hereinafter described and more particularly pointed out in the appended claim.
The invention relates more especially to cans for containing and shipping Syrups, lard, grease, paints, varnish and the like.
The improved can is of the kind in which the lid acts in the manner of a piston to close the open end of the can which is provided with a flanged ring to receive the lid and retain it in place by means of friction. Cans of this type are made generally of tin throughout, but there are also cans for dry products having a similar friction lid in which the body is made of paper, board, or other composition, a flanged ring of tin being applied to the top of the can body to receive and hold the lid in place just the same as in the case of cans made entirely of tin. The invention is equally applicable to this sort of can.
Referring now to the drawings: Figure 1 is a view representing in perspective a can provided with our improvements. Fig. 2 is a view representing a vertical section through the lid of the can shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a partial section on an enlarged scale of the can shown in Fig. 2 with the lid removed and the can inverted.
Referring now to that embodiment of our invention illustrated in the drawings :-1O indicates the can body open at the top and having the usual fixed, closed bottom 11.
13 indicates the flanged, lid-retaining ring' at the top of the body and 12 indicates the saucer-like lid which is removably engaged wlthin said ring.
As shown in Figs. 2 and 3 the ring 13 has an annular depending flange 21 which embraces and is xed to the upper end of the can body 10. 22 indicates an'inner, uprlght annular flange for receiving and retalnlng the lid 12. This flange is formed by bending the metal upwardly, and then bendlng back a part of the flange forming metal upon itself, as clearly indicated at 23. This formation reinforces the retaining flange and alsoI provides a smooth, rounded top edge 22a to be exposed when the lid is removed. i
' 24 indicates the web connecting the two flanges of the lid-retaining ring. The said web in the preferredform is inclined slightly upward so that when the can is inverted as shown in Fig. 3, the contents may all be poured or otherwise removed from the can without check, as there is no trough-like or other recessed space of any kind formed in the lid-retaining ring to catch and hold part of the contents, the last bit of which may roll or flow freely off the web 24.
The lid 12 of the improved can has the usual tubular body 25 and closed end 26 to form the top of the can, together with an annular, horizontal, radially extending flange 27 which is adapted for engagement with the rounded top edge 22a of the upright, annular flange 22 on the ring 13.
The many advantages of our improved can will be apparent to those familiar with the art.
We claim as our invention:
A can of the kind described, comprising in `@lined outwardly from' the body of the can thepresence of two Witnesses, this 25th day towalrd iner rilg, and a saucer hsllalzd of February, A. D. 1915.
tubuariaate toenaewit' eI ,i-
inner ring and bpeing proviedgwith a radial JOHN H' O SHEA' 5 flange adapted to close upon the top edge of the said inner ring. Witnesses:
` In testimony, that we claim the foregoing C. R. BRAATSCH, as 'our invention we affix our signatures in E. FITZGERALD.
CHARLES H. FENTON.
