T. F. RONEY MILK BOTTLE CAP Filed Sept. 15, 1922 Patented Apr. 1923.
UNITED S ATES THOMAS I. HONEY, OF- PROVIDENCE, IRE ODE ISLAND.
MILK-BOTTLE CAP.
Application filed September 13, 1822. Serial No. 587,958.
To all whom it may co /teem:
Be it known that I, THOMAS F. RoNnY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Providence, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented new and useful Improvements in Milk- Bottle Caps, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in a milk bottle cap and more especially to a'combined cap and implement, the primary object being to pro vide a device for removing the usual paper disk closure and itself functioning thereafter to close the bottle against exposure of the contents.
The invention further resides in the provision of a bottle cap equippedwith a pointed im lement or art for removing a paper disk 0 osure, said implement then bemg concealed or protected so that the user will not be injured thereby.
Further the invention resides in an improved bottle cap which will firmly seat on the mouth of the milk bottle and be secured thereto for ready removal.
In the drawing:
Figure 1, is a vertical section through the improved bottle cap depicting the same ap plied to a milk bottle, the latter being shown in fragment; and
Figure 2, is a bottom plan view of the improved milk-bottle cap.
Referring more in detail to the accompanying drawing the device comprises a broad, shallow cup-like body member 1 which is inverted over the top of a milk bottle when used and has its annular rim or flange 2 designed to slip over the bead 3 of the milk bottle 4 with a frictional grip to aid in firmly holding the cap to the bottle and at the same time permitting of ready removal thereof.
The top of the cap is here shown as being flat and to the under side of the same is secured disk 5 which has an'annular marginal enlargement 6 designed to seat upon the internal shoulder 7 of the milk bottle, upon which shoulder is engaged the usual paper disk closure. This construction-gives to the rubber cushioning element 5 an inverted cupshape design and within the shallow interior of this gasket member 5 is secured the base of the disk removing implement 8. This implement is provided with a radial arm 9 deflected downwardly a distance below the plane of the lower edge of the rim 2, sa1d-arm being then deflected outwardl and prov ded with a sharp point 10 for read lly piercing the usual cardboard disk. A single rlvet 11 is employed to secure the three parts together, the same passing axially through the cap body 1 gasket 5 and the base of the pointed implement 8.
In operation, when it is desired to open the bottle of milk equipped with a paper disk closure seated on shoulder 7 the user presses the point 10 down through the paper disk closure and with a movement of his hand readily removes the same from the bottle. After the desired quantity of the contents has been used the bottle is then closed by simply pressing the cap so as to force the gasket enlargement 6 to its seat and the rim or flange 2 frictionally over the bead 3. The cap is then securely held on the bottle with the piercing point 10 extending down into the neck of the same, as is most clearly shown in Figure 1. Obviously the point does not extend beyond the gasket enlargement 6 and consequently does not ro ject beyond the rim of the cap. There ore, the point is partially housed by the cap-body to prevent personal injury by any projecting point, and when the same is in use as a closure element said point is completely contained within the bottle so that there will be no undesirable projection when the device is so being used as a closure per se. The rim 2 is spaced outwardly from the gasket enlargement 6 so as to snugly embrace both sides of the bead 3. The gasket member is preferably made of rubber or a rubber composition, but obviously leather or other cushioning material could be substituted. The gasket member not only cushions the seating of the cap but also serves as a cushion element between the base 8 and the cap body.
What is claimed is:
1. A milk bottle cap comprising a body having a depending marginal flange, a gasket member having a. marginal enlargement and arranged within the flange in spaced relation thereto, a pointed implement seated within the gasket member and having a radially extended arm deflected downwardly below the plane of the flange and terminating in an outwardly directed point, and a single fastening means for securing i it) the body, gasket member and implement tohaving a penetrating point extending below gether. the plane of the flange and within the cir- 2. A milk bottle cap comprising a body cumferencethereof. having a depending marginal flange, a THOMAS F. RONEY. 5 gasket member secured to the body in spaced Witnesses:
,relation to the flange, and a disk-removing J. A. MILLER, implement secured to the gasket member and S. N. BARRY.
