" SANITARY CAN-TAP.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, BERNEY 'KNUnsnN; a citizen of the United States, residing at Denver, in the county/0f Denver and State of Colorado, haveinvented' certain new andmetal can may be readily and quickly tapped in o'rder'that the contents maybe removed as desired.
Another object of the invention is the provision :of a device of the above stated charpointed end, and a hollow bit d'etacha mounted upon the shank and. adapted to be :ings the reference 'numerall indicates the tapped into a metal. can topin such'a manner as to provide an airtight connection between the bit and can top, said shank designed to be removed immediately after the bit has been arranged'in position and a closure. cap adapted'to be positioned over the end of the hollow bit. Y
-A further object of he inventionis the provision of a hollow bit adapted to be reversibly mounted upon the handle shank,
: and a closure cap provided for one end of the hollow bit, said cap servm'g'm one instance as a closure for the hollow bit when attached to a metal can top, andiin the other instance serving as a protector cap for the pointed endof the handle shankf'when' the device is reassembled for commercial handling.
A still further object'of the in'ventionis to provide a handle shank with a non-cir cular portion and a flange, said non-circular portion designed toengage a similar opening in the endo'f a hollow bit whereby the bit will'becausedto rotate with the handle shank,- said non-circular portion and flange also serving to prevent the handle shank from being inserted through the'hollow bit too far. i
With these and other objects in'view as will appear as the description proceeds, the invention comprises the various novel fea tures of construction, combination and arrangement of parts" as will more; fully I Specification of Letters Patent. Pate ted A g 27,1918, Applicationfiled December 14, 1916. Serial No. 136,983. I
described hereinafter and set forth with particularity in the appended claims. Referring to the drawings,
. Figure 1 is' a side elevation of my improved sanitary can tap asembled and ar ranged in position for commercial handling. "Fig. 2' is a sectional elevation showing the various parts reassembled into operative positlon and tapped through a metal can top.
Fig. 3 is a detail perspective View of the hollow bit. i
Fig. 4 is a detail perspective view of the closure cap for said bit.
Similar characters of reference are, used to denote like parts throughout the accompanying drawings and the following description.
Referrlngmore particularly to the drawshank of my improved sanitarygcan-tap,
one endof which is e-Xten'ded'and bentto form a handle loop 2, which may be of any mediate its endswith a non-circular portion 4: and a flange 5- which is arranged im mediately' above the non-circular portion 4 as: clearly shown inFigs. land 2 of the drawings; 1
The reference numeral 6 indicates an imwhich is slightly tapered as clearly indicated in Fig. 3. The'up'per end portion of the sleeve is formed internally non-circular and is designed to receive the non-circular por- "tien i of the shank 1 when the latter is inserted through thebit. Thelower end of the sleeve 7 is provided with a circular flange 8 that is reinforced upon its upper side by a slightly enlarged portion 9. The -under-- neathsurface of the flange 8 is dished as indicated by the numeral 10 for a purpose which will presently appear.
The lower end of the sleeve 7 or that porpiece ofmetal such as a metal can-top or the like. The shank l is further provided inter- 1 proved form of a hollow bit which is shown to consist of a sleeve 7, the outer surface of tion of the sleeve'that is disposed'below the flange 8 is provided externally with sharp edge screw threads 11 to form a hollow screw bit. The upper terminal end portion of each of these screw threads 11 terminates at points in spaced relation to the dished under surface 10 of the flange 8 so as to provide a space of suflicient width to receive the thickness of the metal'forming the can top, as clearly shown in Fig. 2 of .the drawings.
When it is desired to tap a'metal can top, it is simply necessary to assemble theparts as shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings and then insert the point 3 through the can top, after which the handle 2 is rotated and screwed under pressure until the sharp threads 11, have cut their way through the top. When the hollow bit has been rotated until it is tight with the can top it will be so securely tapped through and attached to the metal can top as to provide a non-leakable joint between the bit and'can top. As soon the hollow bit has been arranged in position, the handle andshank are removed from the bit thus leaving the hollow bit to serve as a tap whereby the contents of the can may be readily poured therefrom as desired.
Inorder to prevent the contents of the metal can from evaporating or to exclude dirt or any other foreign substance therefrom, I provide a metal closure cap 12, shown in Fig. 4, which is of substantially cylindrical shape and is formed to provide tapering walls 13 that are designed to frictionally engage over and with the tapered outer surface of the sleeve 7, as clearly shown in Fig. 5 of the drawings. This cap 12 serves as a double purpose, and in the first instance is used as a protector cap for the pointed end of the shank 1. In order to be subjected to thisuse, thehollow bit 6 is reversibly mounted upon the shank as clearly shown inFig. 1 of thedrawings, the cap 12 being frictionally mountedupon the end of the sleeve 7 so as to entirely and completely inclose the pointed end'of the shank, which arrangement is found desir able in commercially handling the device. Secondly, the closure cap is used to seal the can by beingplaced frietionally over the top of the tapered sleeve 7.
From the foregoing it will be apparent that I have provided a novel form of sani tary can tap which may be readily and quickly applied to a can. I
hat I claim is 2-,-
