BOTTLE-CLOSURE.
To all whom it may concern Be jitiknown that IfFRAENK H. SILVER- THoRNE, a citizen of the United States and resident of New-York city, in the county of New York and State ofNew York,'have in- .vented certain new and useful Improvements in Bottle-Closures, of which the following is' a specification.
The invention relates in general to a valvular pour outbottle closure of the type which includes a valve seat adapted to be aflixed to the bottle and a rotatably mounted ,valve for closing the bottle and for directing the stream when the contents are poured from the bottle. This invention constitutes a continuation in part of the invention disclosed in my copending application, Serial 'No. 216,154, filed February 9, 1918, and relates to certain improvements in construction over the device shown in the preceding application.
In the structure shown in the preceding application the ferrule or retaining ring 'which heldthe attachment to the bottle engaged an inflexible retaining ring within which the nozzlemember was mounted for rotary movement and acted therethrough to hold a cork washer in position between the valve and its seat. In the commercial manufacture of these devices in large quantities difiiculty is experienced in obtaining the cork washers ofapproximately the same thickness. Where the washers are unusually thick and were installed in the previously disclosed device an undesirable amount of friction was introduced between the washer and the valve seat, thus causing thevalve to work stiflly and under some conditions preventing the rotation of the same by ordinary manual efforts.
. .jAccordingly, one of the objects of the present disclosure is to design a simple form of means for mounting the valve in rotary position on its valve seat in such a manner asto permit theirequisite frictional resistv ance to free rotary movement of the valve and at the sameetime permit the use of-cork inserts or washers of the commercially varying differences in diameter from the pre-' scribed thickness. Broadly, this object that t e reta n ng ernilewil hold. the spring Application filed August 25, 1919. Serial No. 319,783.
7 is-attained by substituting a spring ring for the inflexible retaining ring in the prior disclosure, so.

Incidental .to the" object simpli fying the construction disclosed in the-prior structure,-the'invention has for a further desid-- eratum, the utilization of this spring ring for, the purpose of limiting the rotary movement of the valve tof and from its openposition and to hold the ring against rotary movement. r
-.-This objectis attained by pressing a pair 7 formed in the valve seatmember Various other objects and advantages of the invention will be in part obvious from an inspection of the accompanying drawings and in part will be more fully set forth in the following particular description of one of depressions into the spring. ring and ,5 positioning one of the depressions inan arcuate'recess. in the valve memberand p0 sitioning the other; depression in a recess form'of mechanism embodying myinvention and the invention alsoconsistsincertain new and novel featuresof construction and combination of i forth and claimed.

claims, parts will be-identified by specific In the following description and in the Fig. 5 is a lat View of the amiss ele-' 1 names for convenience of expression-tut they are intended to be as generic in their application to similar parts as the art will permit. i
The closure constituting the subject-matter of this invention is designed as an article of manufacture for attachment to any kind of a bottle or other receptacle of suitable size and is arranged to be placed on top of the bottle and fastened thereto by any conventional ferrule fastening device. The upper portion of such a bottle is shownat 10 in Fig. 1, positioned on top of which is a cork ring washerll constituting a cushioning device between the attachment and the the washer.
bottle to prevent breakage when the parts are assembled'in a capping machine.
The washer is designed to'beplaced under suiiicient'pressure to fornia tight seal between the attachment and the bottle. A. flanged zle seat is provided with a circular liquid outlet opening 15' adjacent one side thereof and with a relatively small air inlet opening 16 positioned diametrically across the sur- 7 face from the opening 15, as shown in Fig.
5. The underside of theair opening 16 is countersunk to provide a relatively short, wide spreading funnel shaped opening 17 designed to vprovide a free clearance to the air as it enters the bottle. The portion of the air inlet directly above the funnel shaped opening is of relatively small diameter and constitutes a choked passageway 18 for the air just before it enters the bottle.
Revolubly' positioned on the nozzle seat is anozzle unit comprising a nozzle 19 and a I ing a nozzle seatiand with an upstandmg fiat disk gasket 20 positioned between the underside of the nozzle and the bearing surface 14 of the nozzle seat. The nozzle is provided with an inverted L-shaped liquid passageway 21 designed in one position of the nozzle to aline with the opening 15 to provide a liquid conduit from the interior to the exterior of the bottle.
The passageway 21 is of substantially equal'cross-section throughout its length and includes a relatively long liquid receiving portion 22,-vertically disposed when the loottle is in upstanding position and a relatively short liquid dischargingportion 23, normally disposed in horizontal position but which, when the bottle is tipped into pouring position, will extend vertically so as to discharge the stream intothe ink-well or other receptacle for receiving the discharged liquid. The nozzle is also provided with a straight, air inlet passageway 24 designed, when the passageway 21 is 'alined with the openinglfi, to aline with the air inlet opening 16. In this way when the nozzle is in position permitting the discharge of the liquid through the 'ope'n'conduit, an open air intake is provided by the passageway 2 aliningwith the opening 16.
"Arsubstantially flat ring 25 formed of spring metal encircles the lower, enlarged body portion 26 of the nozzle and bears on a shoulder 27 formed on the body portion. In
order to increasethespring of the, ring the V inner edge is bent upwardly as shown at 28,.
in Fig. 1. The ring is providedwitha two-part diametrically extending depression, the inner part 29 .of which constitutes a stop lug and fits in an arcuate recess 30 formed in one side of the shoulder 27; Thisv gasket and the outer edge of the springring are confined within a retaining ring or ferrule 34:, the upper side of which is provided with an inwardly projecting flange 35. The flange laps the spring ring about the same except at the depressed part and coacts therewith to hold the nozzle in rotary position relative to the nozzle seat.
Having thus described my invention, I claim: V '7 J 1.
