DISPENSING I CAN.
This invention relates to improvements in dispensing cans.
My improved dispensing can is especially designed by me for the handling of lubricat ing oil. for instance, at service stations and the like where'the lubricant is poured into the crank case of an automobile or other receptacle.
The main objects of this invention are to provide an improved dispensing can by means of which the lubricant may be conveniently discharged into a crank case or other receptacle at a rate permitting it to pass through a screened intake or the like and also permitting the filling of the receptacle as by means of a force pump or mea suring pump without the necessity of removing the cap fromthe receptacle.
Objects relating to details and economies of construction and operation will definitely appear from the detailed description to follow.
I accomplish the objects of my invention by the devices and, means described in the following specification. The invention is clearly defined and pointed out in the claims.
A structure which is a preferred embodiment of my invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawing, forming a part of this application, in which:
Fig. I is a side elevation of my improved dispensing can partially in vertical central section.
Fig. II is a fragmentary side elevation of another form or embodiment of my invention partially in vertical central section.
Fi III is a fragmentary vertical section of still another form or embodiment of my invention.
In the drawing similar reference characters refer to similar parts throughout the several views. 7
Referring to the drawing, 1 represents the receptacle which is, in practice desi ned to hold a given definite quantity of luhricant. This receptacle is provided with a threaded neck 2 adapted to receive a ca which, in the embodiment shown in Fig. comprises an inner wall 3 and an outer wall 4 through which the spout 5 is arranged, these walls coacting with the spout to provide a vent,
cha'mber6 surrounding the spout. The outer wall has an out-turned flange 7 lapping upon the inner or bottom wall and secured thereto as by solder or the like. The flanged retaining collar 8 also constitutes an element of the cap and is threaded upon the neck to overlap the edges of the walls 3 and 4%, a gasket 9 being disposed at the end of the neck.
The inner wall 3 has an opening 10 therein providing a vent opening to the interior of the receptacle and an opening 11 through the wall 4 providing an exterior vent openmg.
The vent opening 11 is arranged on the side of the cap soas to be easily engaged by the finger of the operator to control the discharging of the lubricant.
The spout 5 is of such dimensions as to permit the filling of the receptacle by means of a measuring or force pump, the air escaping tlniough the receptacle into the vent opening and vent chamber and this'without the lubricant being sprayed or forced through the opening 11. Any lubricant which may pass through the openingv 10 is collected or separated from the air in the chamber 6 and flows back into the receptacle when the receptacle is placed in upright position. \Vhile a perfect venting is secured so as to allow full or free flow through the spout of even the heaviest oils, the oil does not escape through the vent opening as the incoming air prevents this, and this is true even though the receptacle be completely inverted.
In the embodiment shown in Fig. II, the cap 12 is of general form and threaded directly upon the receptacle, an inner wall 13 being secured within the cap, the spout 14 being arranged through the chamber 15 formed by these walls. The vent openings are in the same general relation.
In the modification shown in Fig. III, the cap 16 is threaded upon the receptacle, the spout 17 being mounted on this cap, an outer cap wall 18 surrounding the spout and providing a vent chamber 19, the walls of thecap having vent openings therein substantially as in Figs. I and II.
My improved dispensing can is very simple and economical in structure and isvery efficient for the purpose, allowing the free filling and discharging of the receptacles without the necessity of removing the cap.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A dispensing can comprising a receptacle, a chambered cap for said receptacle, :1 spout disposed through said chamber, said spout being of sueh diameter as to permit the filling of the receptacle through the spout without removing the cap as by means of a pump, said chamber having a vent opening into said receptacle above the liquid level when the receptacle is filled, and a vent opening to the outside of the cap.
2. A dispensing can con'iprising a receptacle, a cap provided with a spout, said spout being of such diameter as to permit the filling of the receptacle through the spout without removing the cap as by means of a pump, a housing embracing said spout; providing a ventchamber at the bottom of the .spouh said chamber having a vent opening" to said receptacle above the liquid level when the receptacle is tilled and an external vent opening.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand.
BERT O. RHODES.
