1 UNITED STATES MICHAEL ronano, or BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
I CONTAINER.
Application filed JanuaryB, 1922. Serial No. 527,995.
To (122 whom 2'25 may concern:
Be it known that 1, MICHAEL Tonauo, a citizen of the United States, residing in the borough of Brooklyn, county of Kings, city and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in' Containers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to containers, and it particularly relates to containers for substances in liquid, powder or paste form, which are continually used in relatively small quantities and must be well protected against the influence of the atmosphere.
Another object of the invention is to provide a container for household use that can be easily refilled, and may be substituted, for instance in the case of milk, for open pitchers, or the original tin cans, the cover of which one has to provide with two holes usually left open until the can is emptied. This latter method is the cause of waste in so far as such sensitive substances like milk are then affected by the unrestricted admis-.
sion of air into the container, the substance either being completely spoiled or partly destroyed, for instance, also by the evaporation of volatile matter.
These and other objects of the invention Fig. 3 is a top view of the cap covering the container,
Fig. 4 is a front elevation of the cap, and Fig. 5 is a vertical sectional view of the opened container on line Z-Z of Figure 1. v
Like numerals refer to like parts throughout the several views.
Referring to the drawings, 1 denotes a cylindrical container or jar, made of glass, porcelain, or any suitable metal like aluminum, silver, etc., with a screw threaded neck 2, and a lip 3, slanting preferably at an angle of 45 degrees. In this slanting lip 3, holes 4 and 5, serving as an outlet for the substance and an inlet for the air respectively or vice versa, are provided diametrically opposite each other. A cap 6, consisting of the screw threaded side wall 7 the slanting face 8, and the cover 9, surrounds the neck 2 of the container. Holes 10 and 11 are provided diametrically opposite each other'in the slanting face.
In the position illustrated by Figure 5,
it appearing as if 'hole 11 moves from the right to the left when cap 6 is screwed tight.
In Figure 2, arrow B indicates the location of the hole 11, marked by an annular dotted line, when a slight turn of the cap 6 in the direction of arrow A closes the container, i. e., hole 11 will be right above the end of the screw thread of neck 2, while a turn in the opposite direction when the container is opened will cause hole 11 to register with hole 5. An inspection of Figure 4 shows that the cap 6 is constructed and formed in such manner that it will follow all the movements described above and that the end of its screw thread 7 will register with the end of screw thread 2, causing hole 11 to take the position shown in Figure 2 when the container is closed.
The container described above is intended preferably for use in connection with liquids, though it serves just as well for sub stances in powder or pasteform. I modify, however, the construction of the container for powders and pastes slightly within the principle-of the construction described above in connection with the container intended preferably for liquids.
The powder container differs only in that the lip is wider and reachesmore towards the centre of the mouth of the container, and that the lip stands at an angle of 90 degrees to the neck or side of the container and in that it" has several perforations about the inner side of the lip with corresponding perforations in the cover. Furthermore, the slanting face 8 of cap 6 of the container for liquids merges in the container for powder with the cover 9.
The'paste container or tube difl'ers from the container for liquids in that only hole 5 of container 1 and hole 11 of cap 6 are used in the tops of these parts and in that said tops are otherwise entirely sealed and lie at an angle of 90 degrees to the side walls of the container and cap respectively.
hat I claim is:
As an article of manufacture a refillable container consisting of a jar of suitablemascrew threaded cap-conforming tothe, shape.
of the mouth and. having two. openings diametrically opposite eaohot her'in; the slanting face thereof, said openings in both the jar and the cap being disposed with reference to each other, so that the container is sealed when the cap is completely screwed on the jar and so that the openings register forming an air, inlet and aliquid outlet for pouring outcontents only by slightly unscrewing the cap on the sealed container.
MICHAEL TODARO.
