W.- NORTH. Bottle-Stopper Fastener,
No. 197,396. Patented Nov. 20, 1877.
@hmmm z 'NITED STATES PATENT FFICE.
WILLIAlVI NORTH, OF SHEEPRIDGE, NEAR HUDDERSFIELD, ENGLAND.
IMPROVEMENT IN BOTTLE-STOPPER FASTENERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 197,396, dated November 20, 1877; application tiled October 26, 1877.
To all 'whom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, WiLLmM NORTH, of Sheepridge, near Hudderseld, in the county of York, England, have invented new and useful Improvements in Stoppers for Bottles, and in the means of securing Stoppers on and into the bottles, which improvements are fully set forth in the following specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.-
The object of this invention is to facilitate and greatly increase the rapidity of openingl bottles, and is specially adapted for malt liq uors, champagne, and all e'ervescent liquors.
For this purpose I fasten a steel wire round the groove in the neck of the bottle, which wire is, at one end, formed into a loop, and bent upward to a little above the mouth of the bottle. The other end of the wire is twisted into the` shape of twine, and is also bent upward to a little above the mouth of the bottle, where it is formed lwith a short bend'outward, whichv serves as a catch for holding down the stopper.I This latter Imake of metal, in one piece, with two projecting parts, .directly in front of each other, across the center. The one projection is perforated horizontally, for the loop of the steel wire to pass through, so as to form a hinge, the other and opposite projection being perforated vertically, so as to allow the catch or bend on the steel wire to pass through such perforation when the stopper is pressed down. The projection at the hinge portion of the stopper is of -substance, by the use of which the bottle' is closed.
The catch, or 'that part of the steel wire where the projection on the stopper locks into the same, is tempered, so as to act as a spring,
which, on being pressed back horizontally, releases the stopper, which flies open, leavingthe mouth of the bottle free.
In order that my invention may be more readily understood, I attach hereto a sheet of drawings, where'A indicates the stopper; B, the elastic band on same; C, the angular projection on the stopper, through which the steel Wire passes, D, the opposite projection on the stopper, by which the spring-catch holds it down.
Figure 1 shows the mouth of the bottle closed by my improved stopper. Fig. 2 shows the same open, and the stopper prevented from returning to the neck of the bottle by the action of the angular projection. Fig. 3 shows a top or plan view.
The stopper Ais cut away at E, so that the projection D is-inclosed, as well as the springcatch F, so that the catch is not liable to be accidentally slipped from the catch in packing or handling the bottles when full; andby forming the wire and spring in one piece the d'evice is easily and cheaply made, readily put* W TVI. NORTH.
