BOTTLE.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WALTER A. STATT- MANN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Bottles, of which the following is a full, clear, concise, and exact description.
My invention relates to bottles and closures therefor. In practicing my invention the neck of a bottle is beaded and a metallic cap is placed upon the bottle neck and has its skirtdepressed to enter the groovin 1n the neck to prevent the undetectable withdrawal of the cap. The metal of the cap 1s weakened in a place which will permit the withdrawal of the upper portion of the cap in order to open the bottle or afi'ord access to the cork in case the bottle neck should also be stoppered.
In the preferred embodiment of the invention the cap is weakened on two parallel lines that are in a zone that is perpendicular to the axis of the cap. The annular ribbon between these parallel lines is cut lengthwise of the cap and one end of the ribbon is outwardl turned to form a small tongue which may be grasped in order that that the ribbon may be torn out of the cap. The zone of'the ribbon is desirably sufliciently below the top of the cap so that the upper part of the cap, which may be then removed, may serve as a cup into which a measured portion or other portion of the bottle contents may be poured.
I will explain my invention more fully by reference tothe accompanying drawing in which Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the upper portion of a bottle equipped with a ca of m invention as it is preferably formed; Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional View of the structure shown in Fig. 1 with a little more of the body of the bottle illustrated; Fig. 3 is a view in elevation showingv a portion of the bottle neck with the upper portion of the cap removed in'the manner described to form a cup which is shown in perspective; Fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectiona1 view, taken on the larger scale, illustrating the formation of the weakened lines; and Fig. 5 is a side view of the cap before it is shaped to conform to the bead upon the bottle neck.
inserted in the outlet end of the bottle neck.
A metal cap 8, Fig. 5, is then slipped upon the outlet end of the bottle neck, the skirt of this cap initially being conical and having no formations that conform to the bead of the neck. After the cap has been placed in position the bottom of this skirt is operated upon by a suitable machine which will depress theskirt of the cap into the grooves that margin the bead 3 of the bottle neck, thereb making it impossible to efiect an undetectable removal of the cap.
Two transverse spaced apart or parallel weakened lines 9 and 10 are desirably formed in the side of the cap and in a.zone which is perpendicular to the axis of the cap. A slight opening 11 (Fig. 1) is formed in the ribbon 12 of metal that is between the weakened lines, one end of the ribbon projecting outwardly in the form of a ton e 13 in order that it may be grasped to ena lo the ribbon to be torn away and thereby separate the upper portion 14 of the cap to make this cap portion removable.
The weakened lines 9 and 10 are provided since the metal of the cap is made sufiiciently'rigid to constitute a protection to guard against the undetectable removal of the cap in whole or in part or of any perforation or other modification thereof designed to secure access to the bottle interior for the purpose of abstracting its contents or diluting the same.
The weakened lines 9 and 10 are desirably so far below the top of the cap as to constitute the cap portion 14 a cup, as indicated in Fig. 3, this cup being usuable to receive a measured or other portion of the contents of the bottle. I do not wish to be limited,
however, to the location of the weakened lines nor to the number thereof, nor do I wish to be limited to other details of construction shown as changes may readily be made without departing from the s int of my invention, but having thus descri d m invention I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent the following.
Claim:
A bottle cap having a skirt portion adapted to be formed to conform to and engage formations on the bottle neck to thereby secure said cap, the latter provided between its ends with a weakening incislons bordering a severable strip, said incisions extending a part compair of continuous annular pletely throu h the cap and said strip laterally severed with said last named portions of said annular incisions to thereby provide a free end portion at one end of the severable stri to constitute a tongue integral with said. strip and folded to provide an outwardly porjecting portion adapted for engagement to effect severance of said strip from said cap, whereby the latter is divided into two parts the upper ofwhich is removablefor access to the bottle.
In witness whereof, I hereunto subscribe my name this 13th da of December, A. D.
WALTER A. STATTMANN.
