ALFRED B. DAY, or lvIANSFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPROVEMENT IN CANISTERS FDR TEA AND COFFEE.
To all to whom these presents shall come:
Be it known that I, ALFRED B. DAY, of Mansfield, in the county of Bristol and State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and useful Improved Canister for Gofiee, Teas, 850.; and that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying plate'of drawlng.
This invention relates to a novel constructi0n--to be hereinafter described-of a canister for coffee, tea, &c., whereby definite quancities of the material contained in it can be removed without exposing the remaining contents to theair, preventing thereby their deterioration and preserving them intact.
In the accompanying plate of drawing my improved canister for cofiee, teas, &c., is illustrated. Figure 1 is aplan view of the 1pper end to the canister with the closing-cap removed; Fig. 2, a transverse vertical section in plane of line am, Fig. 1.
A in the drawing represents a canister, made, in the present instance, of a cylindrical shape, closed upon all sides, but at its upper end or head B provided with a semicircular-shaped opening 0 to allow the canister to be filled and emptied, the center of this opening 0 being at the center of the head B. 0oncentric with the opening 0, and upon the upper head B is arranged avertical tubular nozzle D. This nozzle D has a concentric flange, a, at its lower end, projecting outwardly at a I right angle, and by and through this flange,
with the concentric ring cfastenedto the canister-head B, the nozzle is confined in place,
the cap, and a pin, m, of the nozzle side 0, connection is made between the cap and nozzle, so that the turning of the cap will turn the nozzle, and yet at the same time the cap can be detached or removed at pleasure.
With a construction and arrangement of parts about the discharge-orifice O of the canister, substantially as herein described, it is plainly obvious that with the orifice 0 open--- that is, not closed by the end plate E to nozzle Dif the canister be upset the cap will be filled with coffee, &c., contained in the canister, when, by turning the cap in the proper direction, the orifice 0 will be closed, separating the contents of the cap from those of the canister, which then, by simply detaching the cap, can be readily discharged or emptied.
The advantages of my improved canister are many, among which may be mentioned, that it is simple; that it is not liable to become clogged; that it enables cofiee, &c., to be discharged in a given or definite quantity without necessarily exposing the remaining contents of the canister to the air, and thus to danger of deterioration and that the contents of the canister are not liable to be spilled.
It may be well to here,observe that, for the purpose of indicating when the orifice 0 is' open or closed, marks may be arranged upon the outside of the canister at the points at which a mark on the cap must be brought to secure an opening or closing of the canisteropening 0." V
Having thus described my invention,what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- but at the same time'l ice to be trrnerrr The combination, of the tubular nozzle D Tmefid e a plate, E, through which is an opening, F, corresponding to the opening 0 in the canister-head, and at its center, by a rivet, f, the nozzle D is still further confined in place on the canisterhead, and adapted to be turned on said pivot as a center. H, a cap, adapted to fit over the upper and open end of the nozzleD, and totightly close the same. Between this cap H and the nozzleD, by a vertical Slot, g, of the cap that is open at the lower edge h of having opening F, and the cap H connected with nozzle D by slot 9 and pin m, with a canister for coffee, &c., with the nozzle D attached to the canister about its opening 0, and the whole. arranged substantially as described, for the purpose specified.
