A principal object-of this invention is the provision of an effective sealing means for v securing a frangible closure in the otherwise open end of such and similar containers. I

A further provision of a readily applied adhesive or cement for securing a frangible closure in lace.

p Other objects and advantages of the in vention will be apparent as it is better understood from the following description when considered in connection with the. ac-

companying drawing illustrating a preferred embodiment thereof. i

Referring to the drawing,

Figure 1 is a side elevation of a container Fig. 3 isa detailed section showingthe adhesive in ositlon and-the body ready to- .receive the rangible closure; and

ble closure.

Fig. 4 is a similar View of the same mat- Fig. 5 is a perspective view o the frangi- For the purpose of'illustrating my invention I have s own it embodied in a container of the well known clindrical form.

This container consists o a body A, -a frangible closure C and an outer or friction closure D. The body in the present instance consists of a cylinder formed by winding ai vided with aninwardly extending bea or depression near one end, which bead or depresslon 1s collapsed after being formed to bring the edges 7 of the depression sub object of this. invention is the.

' stantially into contact-so that the outer surface of the container consists of a substantially smooth unbroken plane and so that the structure and the bead or flange thus formed is further stiffened. A cardboard ring 8 is positioned against the collapsed bead 6 and the upperedge 9 of. the body is curled over and rests upon the upper surface of the ring 8. The ring 8 forms. a flange member adapted to be engaged by a cover or closure member, as will be later described. The parts arranged as set. forth may receive a proofing rendering it impervious to I the matter it is to contain. The closure consists'of the frangible disk C preferably of paper, which may or may not be proofed with the same material as the body.v This frangible disk may beheld in place by an .annular body or adhesive 10 shown in the present instance as seated in an annular depression 11 formed in the flange-member or rin .8." This adhesiveis fed in in any suitab e manner and the edges of the depression substantiall define it within desired limits. 'There ore the fran ible clo sure is placed into position an pressed down into contact with the flangemember Paan a Mar.16,1920l or ring 8 where itis held by the adhesive. 7

A friction closure D is inserted within the curled over edge 9 which overhangs'and holds it in place, .as seen inFig. 1. The friction closure D serves to protect the frangible closure against premature frac 'ture.

of its attendant advantages will be understood from the foregoing description, and it willbe apparent that various changes may It is thought that the invention and :many 1 be made in the form, construction and arrangement ofthe parts without departing orsacrificing any of its material advantages, the form hereinbefore described being merely a preferred embodiment thereof. .Iclaim: v v 1 1. A container comprising apaper'body having its wall-bent inward to'form a bead, and the ed e of said wall curled over inward and exten ing downward to near said bead,

an open fibrous ring permanently secured between said head and the under-side of the bottom end of said curled over edgeand extendin inward beyond the latter a fran .ble seai g1 permanently attached on the inner from the sp1r1t and scope of the inventlon,

partof said ring'over'the openingthereof, 11 0 :and an outer closure removably' held frictionally against the inner face of said curled over edge of the body.

2.- A contalner-comprlsing a, body 'having an inwardly extending flange near its top,

3. A container comprising a paper body 1 having its wall bent inward'and formed into a .solid bead of double thickness having its edge curled over inward and downwardto near said bead, an open fibrous ring secured permanently between said edge of the body and said bead and extending inward beyond I the bead, and a removable fibrous closure said ring and permanently secured thereto, and a removable outer cover frictionally held-in place on said frangible cover and en gaged'partly under the inner outwardly inclined face of the bent end of the body.

5,. A paper container comprising a body a which is bent inwardly and outwardly near end of the body.

witnesses its top to produce a shoulder, an inwardly extending ring seated on. said shoulder, the edge of the body being bent inwardly and downwardly and permanently confining said ring, said ring being provided witha ring of adhesive, a frangible cover member seated on said inwardly extending ring and permanently held in place by said adhesive, and an outer removable-cover frictionally held in place on said frangible cover and engaged partly under the inner outwardly inclined" face of the bent end of the body.

61A paper container comprising a body which is bent inwardly and outwardly near its top to produce a shoulder, an inwardly extending ring seated on said shoulder, the

edge of the body being bent'inwardly and downwardly-and permanently confining said ring, said ring being provided with an annular-depression, a ring of adhesive seated in said depression, a frangible cover member seated on said ring and permanently held in place'by said adhesive, a removable outer cover frictionally held in place on said frangible cover and engaged partly under the inner outwardly'inclined face of the bent Signed inthe presence of two subscribing FREDERICK P. oon Witnesses:
