CREAM CAN HOLDER Filed May 21, 1930 f m I6 l7 l0 26 I Z k 24 I? Z P \r A INVENTOR ATTOR NEY Patented July 26, 1932 PATENT OFFICE WALFBED GEBHABD SWANSON, OF SWANVILLE, MINNESOTA CREAM CAN HOLDER Application filed May 21, 1980. Serial No. %,t66fl This invention relates to certain new and useful im rovements in holders for milk cans and the li e for maintaining same submerged in a coolin chamber.
One of t e principal objects of the invention consists of can engaging means designed to maintain the submer ed can in an upright position to obviate spilling or loss of the contents.
An additional object of the invention contemplates the provision and arrangement of a locking mechanism for this purpose.
A further object of the invention embodies a releasing means for the locking mechanlsm operable from a point above the liquid level in the cooler.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention further consists of the following novel features and details of construction, to be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing and pointed out in the appended claim.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a fragmentary elevation of a cooling compartment illustrating the particular mounting and relationship of the invention when applied for use.
Figure 2 is a top plan view of the invention as applied.
Figure 3 is a detail sectional view taken through the immediate portions of the can holding means, locking mechanism and releasing means.
Referring to the drawing in detail wherein like characters of reference denote correranged at intervals upon the walls of the vat.
These holders would serve their purpose well if a number of these cans were so arranged in the vat as to abut one another and obviate tilting, but in the event it was desired to remove any one of the cans, the space originally occupied by the removed can would be immediately taken up by the remaining shifting cans which would then bob up in the Vat, topple over and either spill the contents thereof or permit water seepage. The present in vention is designed to overcome these previous experiences b arranging individual holders for each 0 the several cans in the one vat, whereby any one of the cans can be separately removed and replaced without interfering with the other cans.
In carrying out my invention, I provide attaching plates 11 arranged at suitable heights within the vat and upon the walls thereof in the manner suggested in Figure 1 of the drawing. The ends of each of the attaching plates are offset at right angles to provide long and short ears 12 and 13 respectively. A rod member 14 slidably accommodated within aligned openings provided in the aforementioned ears is ofi'set as at 15 upon its uppermost end above the ear 13.
A hoop or can neck receiving portion 16 carried upon the oflset portion 15 of the slidably mounted rod 14 is designed to accommodate the neck of the commercial size or shape of milk can 17 and to repose against the shoulder thereon formed between the can body proper and the neck. An extension 18 carried b and upstanding fromthe outermost pro ecting end of the car 12 is apertured to accommodate the tongue 19 of a horizontally positioned rockingly mounted locking plate 20. The latter is drilled or otherwise provided with an obliquely inclined opening 21 exposing the marginal edges at the ends thereof for biting engagement with the immediate portions of the rod member 14 passed therethrough.
A releasing rod 22 slidably mounted within openings provided in the ears 12 and 13 and the locking element 20 carries a boss 23, an adjusting nut 24 and a boss 25 for engagement with the adjacent guides mentioned in order. The boss 23 will restrict downward movement of the releasing lever 22, the nut 24 may be adjusted to restrict motion of the leverin an u ward direction and the boss 25 is designed or contacting enga ement with the upper side and free end 0 t e rockingly mounted-locking plate to free the latter from biting engagement with the rod member 14. A compression spring 26, carried by and encircling that portion of the releasing rod 22 between the ear-12 and the locking plate 20, and sprung at its ends against the latter, will normally and yieldmgly maintain the locking plate 20 in the positions. shown in Figures 1 and 3 of the drawing for m biting engagement with the rod member l4 whereby the latter will be maintained in operative position, as shown in Figure 1.
An eye or finger engaging portion 27 is formed upon the uppermost end of the releasing rod 22 by means of which the operator may readily shift the same to occup the different positions necessary to facilltate removing and replacing of the milk cans.
Although I have shown and described m go invention employed for the purpose of hol ing milk cans partly submerged in cooling vats, it is obviously apparent that I do not restrict or limit myself to this particular use as many other possible uses will suggest 25 themselves.
The invention is susceptible of various changes in its form, proportions and minor details of construction and the right is herein reserved to make such changes as properly fall within the scope of the appended claim.
Having described the invention, what is claimed is: a
In combination with a water tank and a can means for holdin the can in upright position in the tank w en immersed in the water therein comprising a guide mounted upon the wall of the tank, a rod slidably mounted in the guide and having at its upper end a hoop adapted to engage over the shoulder of the can, means mounted upon the guide for locking the rod and hoop at a lowered position and means within the tank for releasing the rod locking means.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
WALFRED GERHARD SWANSON.
