IMPROVEMENT IN CANS FOR 4OIL, &c.
' Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 141,920, dated August 19, 1873; application filed June 27, 1873.
To all whomz't may concern.-
Be it known that I, JONAH It. COLE, of Morrisania, in the county of Westchester and State of N ew York, have invented an Improvemeut in Cans for Oil, &c., of which the following is a specification:
Gans have been made with a conical upper end rising above a wooden barrel, inclosing the cylindrical portion of the can; and in other cases the can has been made with a iiat top, and a pouring-spout passing through the wooden cover. In the can first named the conical upper end prevents the cans being piled up one on another; and with the wooden cover to the case containing the can, the cost of manufacture and the space occupied are increased.
My invention relates to a flat-top can; and consists in an improved construction of spout for allowing the entire contents to run out, instead of retaining a portion of the contents, as is always Vthe Vcase with cans heretofore constructed, with a thimble for .the cork inserted through the top and extending into the barrel. l also construct the cylindrical wooden case with metallic hoops, and connect the pouring spout and cork holding thimble tothe upper hoop, Aso as to keep the parts firmly united, but allow of their separation with ease, when it becomes necessary.
In the drawing, Figure 1 is a vertical section ofthe can complete, and Fig. 2 is a plan of the same.
The cylinder a, bottom b, and top c are of sheet metal, of suitable size or proportions. It is preferable to unite the bottom b to the cylindrical portion a, with a cylindrical rim on the former, so as to pass freely into the` wooden casef g; but the top c should form a iiange around the rim of the case g, as shown in Fig. 1.
Instead of employing a cylindrical or taperf ing thimble inserted through the sheet-metal top, near one side thereof, I make use of the pouring spout and cork holding thimble shown. This pouring-spout consists of a short `thimble, e, slightly tapering, and-provided,
preferably, with a ring, t', at its upper end, and the side of the can, near the upper end, is spread to form a segment corresponding to the side of the thimble e; or else the sheet metal of such cylinder a is removed sufciently to allow the spout to project beyond the side of the cylinder a, and be united thereto by the incline o.
A vent-hole, s, is to be provided, for allowing the air to escape as the can is filled up to the under side of the top c; and this hole, when placed in the cork-holding thimble, as shown, is closed by the insertion of the cork or stopper into the thilnble e. The cover n is made of sheet metal, and swings upon the rivet r; and it is provided with a lip, l., that catches beneath the ring t', and can be bent back to secure the cover in place above the cork or stopper. The wooden case fg is made with a hoop, k, around the bottom, and with a metal hoop, t, around the'top. These are iirmly secured in place, and the bail m may be connected with this hoop t.
The side of the wooden cylindrical case g is removed sufficiently to allow the projecting portion of' the pouring-spout to enter and be contiguous to the metal hoop t, and said hoop and spouty are to be connected together by solder. .This will prevent the can fslipping forward in the case f g, even it' it should become loose in consequence of the shrinkage of the wood or otherwise; because, when the can is tipped for pouring, the weight tends to press the can against the point where the spout and hoop are soldered together, Vand the contents of the can will all pour out freely to the veryqlast, because the point of delivery of the spout is below theline of the side of the can as tipped, and there is no place where the liquid can dam up or be retained in the can.
I claim as my invention- 1. The pouring spout and cork holding thimble, applied to the sheet-metal can so that the thi'mble projects beyond the side of the can, as and for the purposes set forth.
2. The sheet-metal can, with the pouringspout and cork-holding thimblev projecting at one side, in combination` with the notched wooden case and the hoop t that surrounds the case and spout, as set forth.
Signed by me this 21st day of June, 1873.
J. R. COLE.
