F. P. BUDD SHOE POLISH CONTAINER Filed May 27, 1922 mvgmon Patented Get. 36, i923.

Application filed May 27,
To all whom t may concer/n: Y
Be it known that ,`FRANK P. BUDD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bonesteel, in the county of Gregory and State of South Dakota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shoe- Polish Containers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to containers especially adapted for the reception of polish and other pastes.
In t-he shoe polish containers now widely in use the opening key is supported by means of a tongue bent up from the edge of the cover and as the result of continued opening of the can this tongue is bent out of place and consequently the key is dislocated. This prevents the key from being flatly engaged with the annular flange surrounding the bottom section of the container and consequently the cap or cover cannot be readily removed.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide a container of the class described wherein the upwardly directed tongue of the cover is provided with an inwardly directed extension which engages the top and thereby limits the inward movement of the tongue and the key so that the key will be maintained in its proper position with respect to the rib of the lower section of the container. Y
A further object is to provide a can opener of the class described which is of highly simplified construction, neat in appearance and extremely cheap to manufacture.
Other objects and-advantages of the invention will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawing, forming a part of this application and in which like numerals are employed. to designate like parts throughout the same,
Figure l is a perspective of a can or container constructed in accordance with this invention.
Figure 2 is a detail vertical sectional view through the same.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary perspective illustratinothe cover and the key.
In the rawing wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embodiment of the invention the numeral 5 designates the bottom or lower section of a container for polish or the like, and as illustrated in Fig- 1922. serial 564,012.
vures l and- 2 the side of the container is proi vided with a rib 6 which is engaged by the key so as to facilitate the removal of the upper section or cap 8.
As illustrated in Figure 3 the cap 8 is provided with a side wall 9 haying an integral tongue generally designated by the numeral 1() and extended out from the lower edge thereof. In carrying out the invention the tongue 10 is bent upwardly along the line 11 so as to provide an upwardly and outwardly directed attaching portion 12 to which the key 13 is pivotally connected. The terminal portion of the tongue is bent inwardly along the line 15 so as to provide a stop element or holding member 16, which as illustrated in Figure 2 extends inwardly into engagement with the Side wall 9 Aat a point spaced upwardly from its lower edge.
When the key 13 is rotated by the finge piece 19 the lugs 20 will be engaged with the rib 6 so that the cover will be elevated. By reason of the inwardly directed stop element 16 the inward movement of the attaching portion 12 is positively limited and the period of usefulness of the key is greatly increased thereby. By the use of the inwardly directed extension 16 the tongue is not broken off at its point of connection with the cap or cover 8 and as the inwardly directed extension 16 does not increase the cost of manufacture its use is rendered eX- f cover and inclusive of upwardly and inwardly directed portions, and a key carried vby the upwardly directed portion of said tongue and constituting a means to elevate the cover, the inwardly directed portion o-f said. tongue being adapted to contact with the side of the cover, whereby to limit the inward movement of the key.
2. rlhe combination of a can closure having a side wall provided with an integral tongue formed with upwardly and inwardly directed portions, the inwardly directed portion of said tongue being adapted to contact with thek side of the closure for limiting' the inward movement of the tongue, and a key carried by said upwardly directed portion and being pivoted thereto.
8. In a can, the combination of upper and lower sections, the upper section being provided with a side wall having its edge provided with an elongated integral tongue, of the upper section and limiting the inward said tongue being extended upwardly and movement of the key, said key being prooutwardly at an angle to the side of the vided with a finger grip. upper section, and a key pivoted to the upn testimony whereof7 I have aixed my 5 Wardly and outwardly directed portion of signature in the presence of two witnesses. 15
said tongue and having its endS formed with lugs forming a means to engage the FRANK P. BUDD. lower seotion to elevate the upper section, Vitnesses: the terminal portion of said tongue being CHAS KIMES,
10 bent inwardly and Contacting with the side VJOHN C. BUDD.
