Application fil .M y .1
T he invent-ion Erelates -to bottle closures, and'ha fol-its. o jec Q'Pl'DVid i iwmb n tion witha bracket disposed at oneside of bottle,neck and having hingedly connected to the upperend thereof a closnre forzt-he lbottle, a segmentally shaped member arching the side,- of the neck of the bottle and ;connectechto the-bracl zet in ,aananner wl iereby it. may be adjusted up;w a rd .l-y,or, downwardly according ;to the length of ;the ue-ck 1 of the bottle, and j the configuration of the neck. of
the bottle.
A further object is to provide the bracket, whichsupports the cover with spaced vertically disposed elongated slits, the portion between which slits is struck in, thereby forming adjacent gripping corners and a segmentally shaped spring member extending through the bracket horizontally between the bracket and the struck out portion and forming gripping arms for gripping opposite sides of a bottle neck and detachably holdingthe bracket on the neck, said gripping corners gripping the segmentally shaped spring member upon spreading of the opposite ends thereof thereby preventing circumferential displacement thereof when on a bottle neck.
.Vith the above and otherobjects in view the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts as hereinafter set forth, shown in the drawings, described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention may be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the cap and support showing the same attached to the neck of a conventional form of bottle.
Figure 2 is a top plan View of the closure.
Figure 3 is a rear elevation of the bracket and gripping member.
Figure 4 is a horizontal sectional view taken on line 1- 1 of Figure 3.
Referring to the drawing, the numeral 1 designates a conventional form of milk botv tle, 2 the neck thereof, and 3 the bottle bead. In milk bottles and bottles generally the necks thereof vary in length and configuration, consequently in providing a supporting bracket 4, which is attached to the neck by oppositely disposed spring gripping arms 5, it is necessary and desirable to have means is applied.

and the type of bottle on which the device It will be not-ed by flattening out or straightening the spring member 8 it may be easily forced into position and prop erly adjusted, thereby reducing the cost of assembling to a minimum.
The upper end of the bracket 4 is provided with a vertically disposed offset portion 11 to one side of the bottle bead 3, and hingedly connected at 12 to said bracket portion 11 is a closure 13. The rear side of the I closure 18 is provided with a downwardly extending finger engaging member 14- adapted to be engaged by the finger of the operator for opening the closure 18 when pouring the contents from the bottom 1, and interposed between said finger engaging portion 14 and the upwardly extend-ing portion 11 of the bracket 1 is a bowed spring 15 which normally exerts an outward pressure on the finger engaging member 14: and maintains the closure 13 in closed position. Bowed spring may be brazed or otherwise secured at 16 to the bracket 4.
From the above it will be seen that means is provided for attaching and holding a f by means of a segmentally shaped spring member adapted to grip opposite sides of the neck, and which spring member may be adjusted to various horizontal planes in relation to the closure, and said spring m-ei her is gripped by adjacent oppositely disposed gripping edges carried by the bracket l, and Which gripping edges are formed by striking inwardly a portion of the bracket.
The invention having been set forth Wha is claimed as new and useful is 1. The combination With a bottle closure comprising a hinged cap cooperating With a bottle neck and a bracket to which said cap is hingedly connected, said bracket being disposed to one side of the neck of a bottle, of a segment-ally shaped horizontally disposed spring member arching the neck of the bottle and gripping opposite sides thereof, said 'segmentally shaped spring member being vertically adjustable to various horizontal planes and held by the bracket.
2. The combination with a bottle neck, a bracket disposed. to one side of said bottle neck, a closure hingedly connected to said bracket, of an arcuately shaped spring member carried by the bracket and having its ends engaging opposite sides of the bottle neck, said bracket being provided With a vertically elongated struck in portion, said arcuately shaped member being disposed between the struck in portion and the adjacent side of the bracket, said struck in portion and bracket having adjacent gripping edges cooperating With opposite sides of the arcuate spring member and forming means whereby said arcuate spring member is held against circumferential displacement and in various adjusted positions in horizontal plane.
8. The combination With a jar closure cap supporting bracket, of a neck engaging spring member carried by said bracket, said neck engaging member being adjustable to various planes in a horizontal position.
In testimony whereof I atiix my signature.
