UNITED STATES THOMAS HALE AND HENRY HALE, OF WALES, NEW YORK.
IMPROVEMENT IN FRUIT-JARS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No.146,824, dated Janiiary 27, 1874; application filed November 1, 1873.
lo all whom yit may concern.:
Be it known that we, THOMAS HALE and HENRY HALE, of Wales, in the county of Erie and'State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Fruit-J ars, of which the following is a specification:
The object of this invention is'to facilitate the operation of opening and closing fruit jars crea-ns, or jars and cans containing any inaterial or substance which is to be or has been hermetieally sealed.
The invention will rst be fully described, and then pointed out in the claims.
In the drawing, Figure 1 is a vertical section of a jar constructed according to our invention, and Fig. 2 is a top view.
Similar letters of reference indicate correspondin g parts.
A is the can. Bis the cap. C is the cover. I) is the wrench. E is the rod or lever. In some partsof `the outside of the jar, preferably near Atheop, "we-forni a section, F, which allows awieh to be applied, substantially as seen in the drawing, for holding the can from turning whenA screwing 0n or unscrewing the cap. The capCV screws onto the neck of the can in the usual manner, and holds the cover in place. G is a bail, having a hole througlropposite sides,'in which the rodor lever E is placed for screwing on or oft' the cap. Ears on opposite sides of the cap, instead of a bail, will answer the purpose. In the top of the jar is a groove, I, andon the under side of the cover Gis a tongue, J, which enters the groove. A rubber band is placed beneath the cover and the top of the can, as seen in the drawing, which insures an air-tight joint when the cover is tightlyr pressed down.
By means of the wreneh,the jar is held from turning with perfect ease, and, by means of the rod or lever E, the cap is tightly screwed down for closing, or unscrewed for opening, by any person, thus avoiding the usual annoyance attendant upon the opening of fruit and similar j ars or cans.
