MARKING-CARD FOR MILK-BOTTLES.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 21, 1920.
Application filed June 24, 1920. Serial No. 391,423.
T 0 all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, RALPH G. HEARD, a citizen of the United States, residin at Boston, in the county of Suffolk and tate of Massachusetts, have invented new and useful Improvements in ,Marking-Cards for Milk-Bottles, of which the following is a specification.
This invention is embodied in an annular marking card of flexible resilient sheet material, such as cardboard, or relatively thick paper, bearing printed indicia, indicating ownership, and having integral tongues projecting radially inward from the inner margin of the card, said margin being formed to pass over the bead of the milk bottle neck, and the tongues being formed and arranged to be flexed from the plane of the card by said neck, and to bear yieldingly on the neck and abut against the bead to prevent accidental removal of the card from the neck.
The card when connected with the milk bottle, holds conspicuously in sight the owners name, and other indicia suggesting to a customer the desirability of placing the bottle so that it can be taken up by the milkman.
Of the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification,
Figure 1 is a plan view of a marking card embodying the invention.
Fig. 2 is a side view of a portion of a milk bottle, and an edge view of the card applied,
thereto.
The same reference characters indicate the same parts in all of the figures.
In the drawings, 12 represents an annular card of flexible resilient sheet material, such as paper of such thickness that when sprung from a fiat position, will have a tendency to again become flat.
The central portion of the dlsk from which the card is made is cut out to form an opening 13, preferably of the form shown by Fig. 1, the margin of said opening having outer segmental portions 14, inner segmental portions 15, and substantially radial portions 16.
The marginal portions 15 and 16 form the free ends and longitudinal edges of tongues 17 integral with the card, and projecting radially inward from the marginal portions 14.
When the cardis pressed downwardly upon the bead 18 of the milk-bottle neck 19, the bead passes through the opening 13, the segmental portions 14 of said opening constituting segments of a circle of substantlally the same diameter as the maximum diameter of the bead. The tongues '17 are flexed by the bead until they pass below the latter, the resilience of the sheet material then causing the tongues to spring inwardly and bear yieldingly on the neck, and abut against the bead, to prevent accidental removal of the card from the neck.
The card is adapted to be slipped quickly to place upon the bottle neck, and when in place, can be removed only by force suflicient to disengage the tongues from the head.
The segmental outer portions 14 of the opening margin are concentric. with the center of the card, and are adapted to be seated on the flaring portion of the bottle belowthe bead 18, and thus cause the bottle to support the card in a plane substantially at right angles with the longitudinal axis of the bottle, as shown by Fig. 2, said portions bearing simultaneously on the bottle so that the card is confined against edgewise movement in any direction. The radial edges 16 of each tongue converge from the junction of the tongue with the body of the card to the free end of the tongue. Each tongue is therefore wider at its junction with the body of the card than at its free end, so that the resistance of the sheet material to fiexure at the junction of the tongues and body, and the pressure of said free ends against the neck, are increased.
claim:
An annular marking card of flexible resilient sheet material having a central opening formed to receive the beaded neck and a portion of the flaring body of a milk bottle, the margin of said opening including outer portions adapted to be seated simultaneously on the flaring body of the bottle and cause the latter to support the card in a plane substantially at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the bottle, and prevent edgewise movement of the card'in any direction, substantially radial portions extending inwardly from said outer portions, and forming the opposite edges of radial tongues, and
inner portions forming the free ends of said tongues, the tongues being displaceable by the operation of applying the card to the bottle, and adapted to spring inward against the neck and engage the neck bead, to prevent aecidental removal ofthe cardfrom the bottle, the radial edges of each tongue I converging, so that the tongues are wider at their junction with the body of the card than at their free en the sheet material to ds, whereby the resistance of 10 fiexure at the junction of the tongues and body, and the pressure of said free ends against the neck, are increased. In testimony whereof I have affixed my signature.
