' COMBINED SPOON AND BOTTLE CLOSURE Filed Nov. 22, 1927 INVENTOR erwmmm/mpm ATToRNY Patented Mar. 26, 1929.
* UNITED STATES FERDINAND PHILLIPSON, OF NEW YORK, 11'. Y.
COMBINED SPOON AND BOTTLE CLOSURE.
Application filed November 22, 1927. Serial No. 234,946.
This invention relates to means whereby devices such as spoons may be attached to medlcine bottles or the like, and relates more particularly to combined bottles caps and spoon.
' Frequently it is necessary to take liquld medicine when away from home or where one. does not have available a teaspoon with WhlCh' the measurement of medicne is ordinarily made. Furthermore, it is extremely incon lo venient 'and really impracticable to carry an ordinary spoon around to meet such emergencies.
' An important object of the invention, is to provide devices which obviate such difliculties and meet all reasonable requirements, and
which are simple and economical to manufacture. Another, object of the invention is to provide a bottle closure member. with a spoonbowl attached directly thereto without the intervention of a stem or handle portion. An-
other object of the invention is to provide a spoon or other measuring device integral with.
a metal bottle cap or closure member, and so made as to lie along the neck of a bottle to which the cap is applied, without projecting beyond the outlines of the main body of the bottle. Obviously, the invention may be applied to particular advantage to bottle caps ofthe type adapted to be secured to bottles by giving them a part turn after placing them in position.
Other features and advantages will appear upon consideration of the following description and of the accompanying. drawings in which: Y v i Fig. 1 is a fragmentary view showing the upper part of a bottle having one embodiment of the invention appliedthereto;
Fig. 2 is a side elevation, partly in section, of the structure shown in Fig. 1; I Fig. 3 is a View similar to Fig. 1, but illus trating another form of the invention; and
Fig. 4 is a view, partly in section, illustrating another form of the invention.
Referring to the drawingsin which similar numerals refer to similar parts through out the several views 10 indicates a bottle (Fig. 1) with a neck 11 having suitable'provisions, such as projections12, to be engaged b'y'suitable lugsor projections at the interior of a cap 13, such as inwardly projecting flanges 1 1 (Fig. 2) at the lower edgeof the cap. The pro ect1ons 12 are here shown as having inclined 'lowersurfacesbut it is comsuitable material such as cork to assure a men practiceto obtain the wedging action by. inclined surfaces on the flanges or inwardly projecting parts 14.
According to the approved embodiment of a the invention illustratedin Figs. 1 and 2 the cap 13 is formed with a spoon or spoon-bowl 0 15 and of substantially standard capacity integral therewith. Preferably, as here shown, there is no handle to the spoon which is connected directl with the. cap by the relatively thin metal an may readily be bent back from the cap to render its use more convenient. The cap or closure 13 may be used with or without a cork in the mouth of the bottle, such caps ordinarily being formed with linings of liquid-tight seal. a a
In the event that there is insuflicient room for the bowl of the spoon to be placed lengthwise of the neck of the bottle, the cap 13 may be provided with an integral extension in the form of a spoon 15 connected at the mlddle' of one side with the cap '(Fig. 3).
Under certain conditions, particularly where the bottle has a short neck and'the body of the bottle extends a substantial dis? tance to the side, the cap 13 may be provided with a deep-bowl spoon or cup 15 (Fig. 4). It will be evident that the spoons, cups or measure-s attached to the bottle caps or closures may be applied to bottles without interfering with the packaging of the bottles and that, in the event one purchases a bottle of medicine'provided with such a combined closure and spoon, he will have at hand a suitable substitute forthe ordinary spoon which he would ordinarily'need and would probably have considerable difficulty in getting unless he happenedtobe at home. The present invention obviates any diificulty of, this kind.
, The device of the present invention may readily be stamped from sheet metal such as is ordinarily used in making bottle caps and the spoon bowl or measuring receptacle may be made of any available size. Ordinarily, however, a measure with the capacity of one teaspoonful meets all 're uirements.
- The foregoing detai ed description has been given for clearness of understanding and no undue limitation should be deduced therefrom, but the appended claims should be construedas broadly as possible, in view of the prior art.
Having thus described my invention, what 5 I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is:
7 closure and adapted .to lie outside of and along the neck of the bottle and between the mouth and the body of the bottle. 7
2. In combination, a bottle closure'includ- .10 ing a thin metal shell, and a spoon-bowl integral therewith with one edge of the bowl and one edge of the shell substantially coincident so that the bowl ma assume a position at the sideof the neck a bottle when the "with reference tothe shell b bending the sheet metal at the line. of division there- -between.- a .t'
3. In combination, a bottle closure includ- 2Q ing a-sheet. metalpart to be secured on the centrally disposed neck of a bottle at its mouth, and aspoon-bowl integral therewith at one edge of the bowl and one edge of said bottle cap an shell is in effective position but may be shifted part and so arranged as to lie along the neck at the outside thereof and between the mouth of the bottle and the base of the neck.
4. A unitar combined bottle cap and teaspoon stampe from sheet metal and with the bowl having its edge at onepart thereof substantiall coincident with the edge of the cap so, that yo bending the sheet metal atvthe line of division between the-cap and the teaspoon, the spoon may without distortion thereof be brou ht to a convenient position for use, with re rence to the cap.
5. A unitar sheet metal device including a I d a spoon bowl with its ed sub- 'stantially at the edge of said cap so that by bending the-sheet metal at the lineof division between the cap and the spoon bowl, the bowl and the cap may without distortion of for convenient use of the s oon.
In w1tness whereof, I a my signature.
either, be brought into the proper relation FERDINAND PHILLIPSON.
