Application nease cemm as, 1919. Serial No. 325,753.
concern: Be it known t at I, HERMAN C Beam, a citizen of the United States, residing at Baltimore, State of Maryland, have inventfor applying crown maining bevera ed certain new and useful Im rovements in Means for Applying Crowneels, of which the following we s ification.
r This invention re ates to a simple means seals to'bottles and for removing the same therefrom. It also relates to a method of re-capping bottles with used crown seals It is an object of the invention to pro vide -a simple device, for household use, whereby crown seals may be applied, to bottles and the like, thus obviating the use of unsatisfactory methods of sealing bottles, 7
jars and the like, with corks.
A most-important object of the invention is to provide a device whereby previously used crown seals may be re-applied as satisfactorily as new ones, thus 0 be saved and used over again or, if a bottle of some beverage is opened and all of the contents not used, then the cap may be reapplied as tight as originally-and the ree preserved.
A further ob ect is to relate the devices above-mentioned in such manner that they form a means for removing a crown seal and thus the invention provides a household utensil as convenient as the usual corkscrew or can-opener.
Other and further important objects of the invention will be apparent from the v disclosure in the drawings and specification.
Figure 1 is a view in side elevation partly broken away and showing the invention in the act of expanding'a previously used cap. Fig. 2 is a view in side elevation partly broken awa and showing the invention in the act 0 applying the cap to a bottle.
, Fi 3 is a new in side elevation showing the nvention in the act of de-capping a bottle.
Fig. 4 is an end view showing the expandi means; and
1 5 1s anend v1ew showing the compressing means. a
hard surface, as shownin Fi dv caps may bottle 8. Toexpand the crown seal the same is placed upside down on a table, or other g. 1, and the tapered head or plug 1 is wdrlven into the cap by the blow of a hammer 9 thus expanding the crimped skirt 5.
To apply the seal 6 to the bottle, it is placed on the bottle bead as shown in Fig. 2, and the compressing head 2 is placed over it and the device ta ed again with the hammer 9 as shownr he compressing head has a tapered recess 10 which is fluted, as shown in Fig. 5, so that the flutes fit the crimps of the seal and as the head 2 is forced down onto the seal it carries the seal onto the head 7 of the bottle and crimps the seal in place in the sametight manner as originall applied.
T e rear edge of the expanding head 1 is slightly flared as shownat 11 so that it will catch over the edge of a crown seal as shown in Fig. 3, and the compressing head 2 then rests on the seal and forms a fulcrum so that by lifting in the direction indicated by the arrow the ca may be removed.
I am aware t at various details of construction maybe varied through a wide range without departing from the principles of this invention, and I therefore do not propose limiting the patent grantedotherwise than necessitated by the prior art.
I claim as my invention:
1. A cap ing and decapping tool having cap expan ing and applying ends, one of said ends having means to engage the cap for removal of the same and the other forming a fulcrum and handle during removal.
2. A cap ing and decapping tool having cap expan ing and applying ends, one of said ends having a lipped edge to engage thecap for removal, the other end forming a fulcrum and handleduring removal.
