MILK BOTTLE TOP Filed March 8, 1930 atroz mq VPatented Jan. 12, 1932 L l THOMAS P. DUNCAN, JR., F NEWPORT NEWS, VIRGINIA MILK BOTTLE Tor Application led March 8,
This invention relates to milk bottle tops and more particularly to a removable sanitary top.
An object of this invention is to provide a top for a milk bottle which is adapted to keep the top of the bottle in a clean, sanitary condition so that when the bottle is handled or left in an open place, no dust or germs of any kind will collect upon the upper rim of the bottle.
Another object of this invention is to provide a sanitary top which may be secured by means of a brad or the like to a conventional milk bottle top or stopper.
The above and various other .objects and advantages of this invention will in part be described in and in part be understood from the following detailed description of the present preferred embodiment, the same being illustrated in the accompanying drawings wherein 0 Figure 1 is a detail top plan view of a device constructed according to thepreferred embodiment of this invention;
Figure 2 is an enlarged sectional view taken on the line 2-2 of Figure 1 and Figure 3 is a bottom plan view of a blank ca Ileferring to the drawings wherein like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, the numeral 10 designates a conventional milk bottle which is provided with an annular flanged top 11 and a stopper seat 12 which is adapted to removably receive an annular disc-like stopper 13.
The stopper 13 is provided with a slit or cut portion 14 which is positoned to one side of the center of the stopper so that when it is desired to remove the stopper from the bottle, the smaller portion 15 may be lifted upwardly thereby facilitating removal of the -remaining portion of the 'stopper from the bottle. Preferably, the opposite ends of the slit 14 terminate at a point spaced inwardly of the periphery of the stopper 13.
A sanitary cap generally designated as 16 is secured to the stopper 13 by means of a staple or brad 17, and the cap 16 is ada ted to extend outwardly of the periphery o the 1930. Serial No. 434,322. l
stopper 13Aand over the periphery of the flange 11 of the bottle, the lower edge of thc cap portion 16 preferably extending to a point below. the lower edge portion of the iange 11 so that no dirt or the like will Contact with the top 11 of the bottle.'
The cap member 16 is preferably constructed of a flexible material such as paper or the like and is preferably impregnated with paraffin or wax. Initially, the cap member 16 is constructed in the form of an annular disc-like member which may be secured to the stopper 13 by the brad 17, and when the stopper 13 is positioned in the seat 12, the extended edge portion of the cap 16 may be pressed downwardly and about the flange 11 of the bottle'.
The downwardly extended portion of the cap is formed into a plurality of plaits or folded portions 18 so that the cap 16 will rmly contact with the periphery of the ring or flange member 11 of the bottle.
At the same time the stopper is being pressed onto the seat 12, the cap member 16 may be pressed downwardly and about the rim 11 so that no dirt or germs may contact with the upper end portion of the bottle.
When it is desired to remove the stopper from tlie bottle, the finger nail or a pointed instrument may be inserted beneath the brad 17 and the stopper 13 lifted from the seat 12, the stopper of course being first bent along the slit 14.
It will be obvious from the foregoing that the contents of the bottle are not only effectively sealed against contamination but that the top of the milk bottle is protected against any dust, germs or the like. It will also be obvious that it is not necessary to remove the stopper 13 from the bottle in order to pour out the contents thereof, as the slit portion 14 will provide a hinged stopper, one portion of which may be lifted from the seat 12, and coactively the adjacent portion of the cap 16 may be lifted, the plaits or folded portions 18 straightening out so as to permit the contents to be removed without takingI off the stopper 13 or the cap 16.
It will, of course, be understood that various changes and modifications may be made in the details of construction and design of the above specifically described embodiment of the invention without departing from the spirit thereof, such changes and modifications beingvrestricted only by the scope of the following` claims.
What is claimed is 1. A milk bottle top of the character described com'prising in combination, a disclike stopper having a slit portion positoned at one stde of the axis thereof and cut through one face thereof but terminating inwardly of the opposite face, said slit opening on the inner face of the stopper, an annular cap member adapted to engage about the rim portion of a milk bottle, and means for securing said cap member to said stopper.
2. A milk bottle top of the character described comprising in combination, a diselike stopper member having a slit positioned at a point outwardly from the axis thereof and cut through one face thereof but terminating inwardly of the opposite face, the opposite ends of said slit terminating at a point spaced inwardly from the periphery of the disc, said slit opening on the stopper, a paraffined cap member adapted to engage about the flanged portion oi' the bottle whereby tol prevent dirt from resting thereupon, and a brad for securing said cap to said stopper.
In testimony whereof I hereunto aiiiX my signature.
