JAR COVER.
Application filed September This invention relates to jar covers, and the object of the invention is the construction of a simple and efficient jar cover, including a separable or split cap band, and a pin, both of a peculiar novel structure for holding the completed cover upon a jar or receptacle when assembled and in position thereon.
lVith the foregoing and other objects in view, my invention comprises certain novel constructions, combinations, and arrangements of parts as will be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and more particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawings:
Figure l is a view in side elevation of a ja r and my improved cover thereon.
Figure 2 is a top plan view ofthe structure shown in Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on line 3--3, Figure 2, and looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure e is a fragmentary view, in elevation, of the cap band and pin; the cap band being in a separated position at its split ends.
Figure is a view in elevation showing jars equipped with my jar cover in a tiered or stacked condition.
Referring to the drawings by numerals, 1 is the glass jar upon which is positioned my improved jar cover. This cover includes a springy cap band 2; band 2 is split and is provided with preferably a pair of sleevelike vertical ears 3 and a single sleeve-like vertical ear 4, Figure il. The single ear 4 fits in between ears 3 and these ears are aperture'd for receiving the straight vertical portion 5 of the springy or resilient pin 6. This pin 6 is bowed at 7, and is provided with an inwardly extending bowed tongue 8, for the purpose hereinafter described. Vhen the pin 6 is in the ears Band 4, the cap band 2 will be securely held on the jar 1. v
The cap band 2 is provided'with an upstanding bead 9 that is cut away at 10, at the split ends of the band 2, producing a socket inV which the bowed portion 7 of the pin is seated, so as to place the pin 6 out of the way when the jars are tiered or stacked, as clearly shown in Figure 7. In packing the jars away in a shipping crate or on a shelf, as in a delicatessen store, it is often desirable to stack the jars for economizing 30, 1925. Serial No. 59,614.
space, and my invention is excellent for this' purpose.
In assembling the Yjar cover, I preferably place a rubber band 11 on the top edge of the j ar, Figure 3, and then on this rubber band, I lay a glass top 12 upon which I place the peculiarly constructed cap band 2, closing the same together so that the ears 3 and 4L register, and then I insert thev pin 6 and swing the pin so that the tongue 8 snaps down over the bead 9, resting upon the top 12, as clearly seen in Figure 3, with the pin out of the way in a socket formed by ends 10, as shown in Figui-e1. When it is desired to remove the jar cover, the operator grasps the tongue 8, Figure 3, swings the tongue around to the dotted position A, Figure 3, then pulls upwardly on the pin,y until it is removed from the ears, whereupon the cap band spreads apart, allowing its removal from the jar and then the top 12 and rubber band 11 can be removed, either by the use of the fingers only, or with a knife.
If desired, without departing from the spirit or scope of this invention, the cover 12 may be a paraflin treated piece of cardboard, and if so, the use of the rubber band 11 will be unnecessary.
As shown in Figure 5, the jars 1 can be stacked for saving space. j
It will be understood that my cover can be taken 0E easily after being sealed tight. It will also be understood that my improved jar covers can be used on jars, bottles, or buckets, or on any article where a cover is necessary. The threaded cap band is made of strips, therefore, is a saving of material, and it can either be rolled or pressed out. The ears of the band are preferably shaped from one piece of material and can be welded or made firm in any way to suit the constructor.
It is to be noted that in Figure 3, the top 12 is made of clear glass, so that if the contents of the receptacle starts to spoil, this condition can be seen through the top, and by recooking or reboiling the contents, it may be saved; the housewife is, therefore, enabled to keep herself informed as to the condition of her canned goods.
It is to be understood that with my flat or smooth tops or covers, after the band has been removed, a knife can be passed freely under the same and over the top of the jar or receptacle to loosen the top, without striking ridges or grooves, as in other caps or jars, making` it easy to remove the cap in a way without liability of breaking the cap lor top ol the receptacle.
Vhile I have described the preferred einbodiinent et' my invention and illustrated the saine in the accompanying drawings, certain minor changes or alterations may appear to one skilled in the art to which this invention relates, during the extensive manufacture ot the saine, andi, therefore reserve the right to make such changes or alterations as shall fairly tall within the scope ot the appended claims.
What- I claim is:
l. n a device of the class described, the combination with a top, ot a split cap band provided on its upper' edge' with an upstanding bead, said head being cut away at its ends, producing` a socket on the band, said band provided with registering ears at its ends, a pin extending into said registering ears tor holding the ends otu the band together, said pin provided with an up wardly bowed portion and with an inwardly-ektending resilient tongue, and said upwardly bowed portion seated in said socketbetween the ends of said bead with the tongue resting down on said top out of the way, whereby a jar or receptacle may be stacked or tiered upon saidV top, substan tially as shown and described.
2. In a device ot' the class described, the combination with a top, of a split band clamped around said'top, said band provided with registering ears and with a socket7 and a pin in said ears and having a portion extending through the socket, said eitnding portion terminating` in a tongue norn'ially resting tight upon said top.
3. A jarcover, comprising a split band, said band provided on its split ends with sleeve-like vertical registering ears7 and a vcrtically-niovable locking pin in said ears.
4. A jar cover, comprising a split band, said band provided on one ot' its ends with a pair ot sleeve-like vertical ears, and on its other end `with a single sleevelike vertical ear between the earsl of said pair, and a vertically-n'iovahle locking pin in all of `said ears.
