CLOSURE CAP APPUCATION FILED MAR. 26, IQIB.
Patentedt Dec. 16, 1919.
GEORGE FRANK, OF TIKONKA, IOWA.
CLOSURE-CAP.
Specification of Letters Patent. I
Patented Dec. 16, 1919.
Application filed March 26, 1918. Serial No. 224,817.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE FRANK, a citizen of the United States, residing at Tikonka, in the county of Kossuth and State of Iowa, have invented a new and useful Closure-Cap, of which the following is a specification. Y
The subject of this invention is a closure cap, and the object of the invention is the provision of a cap for closing the spout of an oil can or like container.
The invention also contemplates the provision of means for yieldingly holding the cap in place on the spout.
A still further object within the contemplation of the invention is the provision of means for securing the yielding retainer in place on the spout.
The invention also contemplates generally improving the structure and enhancing the utility of closure caps.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed can be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
A practical embodiment of the invention is shown in the accompanying drawing, wherein Figure 1 is a view in side elevation of the device showing the same attached to the spout of a container, a portion of which container is shown;
Fig. 2 is a central longitudinal section of the same;
Fig. 3 is a cross section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Referring to the drawing by numerals of reference A container or oil can is indicated by the numeral 1, and the can is supplied with a spout 2 communicating with the interior thereof and adapted for directing liquid discharged or poured from the can.
A sleeve 4 encircles, and is slidable longitudinally of the spout 2, and the outer end of this sleeve is flanged or flaring, as indicated by the numeral 4. Ears 5 are formed at diametrically opposed positions on the flange 4 of the sleeve 4, with which they are preferably integral. The ears 5 are apertured to receive the ends of a bail 6 in the loop or cross portion of which bail is secured a cap 7 The cap 7 contains a filler 8 composed of some slightly yielding material such as cork or rubber.
A compression spring 9 encircles the spout 2, and its inner end rests upon the flange 4 of the sleeve 4 while its outer end abuts against a collar 10. The collar 10 encircles the spout 2 and is rigidly secured thereon by having the material of its outer end crimped into the material of the spout, as indicated by the scallops 11.
When it is desired to pour oil from the can 1, the cap 7 is grasped and drawn away from the end of the spout 2 thereby drawing the sleeve 4 against the tension of the spring 9. When the cap has been drawn clear of the spout end it may be swung to pass to one side of the spout when retracted by the spring 9, the bail 6 pivoting in the ears 5 for this purpose.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new and sought by Letters Patent is Ina device of the class described, a container having a spout; a sleeve slidable longitudinally of the spout; a bail having its ends pivoted to the sleeve; a cap carried by the outer end of the bail and cooperating with the outer end of the spout; a helical compression spring surrounding a portion of the spout and abutting at its inner end against the sleeve; a collar on the spout adjacent to the outer end of the spout,- the collar projecting laterally beyond the spring and serving as an abutment for the outer end of the spring, the collar being located between the side portions of the bail; and means for securing the collar to the s out.
In testimony that I clalm the foregoing as my own, I have hereto aiiixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE FRANK- Witnesses:
PETER KLIseKIsT, FRANK E. KETTWICH.
