CLOSURE FOR BOTTLES AND JARS.

JOHN HEBERLIN'G, OF ROCHESTER, NEVT YORK.
CLOSURE FOR BOTTLES ND JARS.-
for Bottles and Jars, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to closures" for bottles and jars, this application containing matter which is illustrated and described in an application filed by me on the 24th day of May, 1916, Serial No. 99,662. The object of the invention is to provide a construction in which the cover or closure turns on the bottle or jar as a fulcrum, provision being made on the cover or closure to facilitate pivotal action.
To this and other ends, the invention consists of certain parts and combinations of parts, all of which will be hereinafter described, the novel features being pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a top view of a jar or closure constructed in accordance with this invention;
Fig. 2 is a vertical section through the v embodiment shown in Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 1 of another embodiment of the invention;
Fig. 1 is a view of the under side of the embodiment shown in Fig. 3; and
Fig. 5 is a vertical section through the embodiment shown in Fig. 3.
Referring first to the embodiment shown in Figs. 1 and 2, 1 indicates the usual bottle or jar designed for holding milk or the like, and having an external bead or annular enlargement 2 around the mouth, such jars usually having an internal seat 3 for the reception of a paper cap or cover. For closing the mouth of the bottle or jar, a cover member is provided preferably having a centrally depressed portion 4 to fit within the mouth of the bottle above the seat 3, and a rim 5 to rest upon the top of the bottle about the mouth. At one side, the rim is cut away to provide a recess 6, the opposite ends 7 of said recess providing bearing points on which the cover may turn as a fulcrum on the bottle top.
Any suitable means may be employed for supporting the cover member of the bottle. It is preferred, however, to provide a spring Specification of Letters Patent- 7 I Pttijlltd ()Ct, 1 179 Application filed July '17, 1917. Serial No. 181,159. i
frame made from a strip of metal secured at one end at 8 to the depressed portion ex tending upwardly and outwardly, thence downwardly and outwardly to provide a spring arm 9, and thence forwardly and upwardly at 10 to provide another spring arm, the free end of which engages the head or shoulder 2 on the top of the bottle or jar in order to retain yieldingly the cover in place while permitting the swinging of the latter, whenever pressure is applied to the spring arm 9 near the lower end of the latter.
In the embodiment shown in Figs. 3, 4 and 5, the parts are the same, except that instead of cutting away the rim 5, the recess is formed by pressing the rim upwardly at 6 to provide the fulcrum points 7 This arrangement is slightly more sanitary than the embodiment shown in Figs. 1 and 2, in that the pressed portion 6 tends to shield the mouth of the bottle against the action of dust or dirt.
There may be combined with the bottle or closure a device for removing the paper caps from the jar, in this instance, this device is in the form of a piece of sheet metal 11 see cured by the rivets 8 which secure the spring frame to the closure, said piece of metal having each free and formed in a point 12 which is adapted to penetrate the paper cap, after which an upward pull on the jar closure will remove the cap from the bottle or ar.
It is seen from the foregoing that in both embodiments of the invention, the closure member of the device is held to the bottle or jar by a yielding spring which permits the closure to be tilted on a bottle as a fulcrum, the spring frame at the same time yieldingly resisting tilting and returning the closure member to place. The closure member is so formed that it engages the bottle at two spaced points during the tilting action. Not only is the seat on which the usual paper cap rests protected against the action of dust, but the jar closure extends over the mouth of the bottle beyond such seat and protects the mouth against the action of dust.
What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. A jar or bottle closure comprising a cover member having a central depressed portion and a rim to rest on the top of the bottle, said rim having two spaced bearing points, on whch the cover member may turn as a fulcrum on the bottle top, and means for supporting said cover member on the bottle.
2. A. jar or bottle closure comprising a cover member adapted to rest on the top of a bottle and having a recess in one side, the ends of the recess forming bearing points on Which the cover member may turn as a fullcrum; and means for holding the cover member to the bottle to permit it to swing on the latter. I
3. A jar or bottle closure comprising a cover member having a central depressed portion and a rim to rest upon the top of the bottle, said rim having a pressed-up portion at one side providing tWo bearing points on Which the cover may turn on the bottle as a fulcrum, and means for supporting said cover member on the bottle.
L. A jar or bottle closure comprising a cover member adapted to turn upon the top of a bottle as a fulcrum, a spring frame se cured to the top of said cover member and adapted to secure the cover member to the bottle, and a paper, cap remover secured to the under side of the cover member by the means which secures the spring frame to said cover member.
