SANITARY COVER FOR MILK CONTAINERS.
Application filed June 21, 1926.
My invention relates to a sanitary cover for milk containers andthe like.
The object of my invention is to provide an inexpensive cover that will fit snugly over the rim of a milk bottle.
A further object of my invent-ion is to provide a cover having flexible features on the flange to expand sutliciently to pass over the larger portion of the rim of the neck, and tension beneath the rim concealing that portion for sanitary purposes.
A still further object of my invention is to provide a cover for a milk bottle or the like that will function as a sealing means Without the assistance of the usual cap commonly used and such as illustrated in Fig. 1.
A still further object of my invention is to provide a cover that is water proof and will function in combination with the cap sealing the bottle as a sanitary means.
These and other objects will hereinafter be more fully explained.
Referring to the drawings:
Fig. 1 is an elevation of a fragmentary portion of a milk bottle, parts broken away for convenience of illustration.
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the cover as it appears from the flange side, the bottle being removed.
In the drawings, 1 is a top portion of a milk bottle, preferably used to illustrate my invention, 2 is an ordinary cap such as commonly used for sealing the neck of the bottle, by which means the contents thereof is retained, and the common practice among.
dairymen heretofore has been to deliver milk to the consumer without havmg any means to protect that portion of the neck that the milk will contact while being poured therefrom.
Bottles of milk thus delivered quite often Serial No. 117,508.
of corrugations; said corrugations being placed in groups along the peripheral edge thereof the groups preferably placed at 120 degrees, the intervening portions of the flange being smooth, and adapted to fit snugly along the under curvature of the rim at which point the rim may be gripped by the hand Without expanding the flange aslwould be the case if the corrugations were flattened in gripping the rim of the bottle neck. The said corrugations terminating near the greater diameter of the curvature, and being thus made it will allow the contracted edge of the flange to expand sufficiently to pass over the rim, and contract, causing the edge to fit snugly, the tendency of which is to pull the cap downtightly on the mouth of the bottle.
It is now readily seen how that portion of the neck is concealed, that the milk will contact while being poured therefrom. Furthermore the covering will function as a sealing means, for the bottle when the cap 2 has been removed.
In view of the flexible construction of the flange and the Waterproof means which is preferably of parathne or like substance, the cover can be used many times Without deterioration, and also it may be sterilized.
I do not confine the use of the cover to milk bottles, as it may be applied to other containers for other substance that would have a similar rim about the neck or mouth of the container.
Such other modilicat ions maybe employed as lie within the scope of the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire'to secure by Letters Patent is:
In a sanitarycover for milk containers a flanged cap constructed of paraflin sized paper, a contraction of the peripheral edge of the flange by grouping at intervals a series of corrugations around the edge so that the peripheral edge will engage snugly to the under side of the head of the neck of the milk bottle, by which means thickening of the peripheral edge is eliminated and the edge adapted to yield when the cap is bein placed or removed from the top of the ottle.
