CLOSURE CAP Filed Dec. ll, 1954 Jan. 14, 1936.
5 H 2f x Patented Jan. 14, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT ori-ICE CLOSURE CAP Richard H. Whitehead, New Haven, Conn.
Application December 11, 1934, Serial No. 756,910
6 Claims. (Cl. 2115-74) This invention relates to closure-caps, and more particularly to closure-caps for bottles and the like.
One object of this invention is to provide an improved closure-member adapted to be actuated to provide an amply-large pouring-aperture.
Another object of this invention is to provide an improved closure-cap which can be readily sealed against unauthorized opening.
Another object of this invention is to provide an improved closure-cap formed of simple elements, readily manufactured and readily assembled to produce an attractive, efficient and durable construction. Y
With the above and other objects in view, this invention includes all improvements over the prior art which are disclosed in this application.
In the accompanying drawing, in which one way of carrying out the invention is shown for illustrative purposes: y
Fig. 1 is an elevation of the top of a bottle provided with a closure-cap made in accordance with this invention;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a sectional view on a plane indicated by line 3--3 of Fig. 2;
Fig. 4 is a sectional view on a plane indicated by line 4--4 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 5 is a sectional view on a'plane indicated lso by une 5 5 of Fig. 3, with the closure-member in closed position;
Fig. 6 is a view similar to Fig. 5, but with the closure-member in open position; Fig. 7 is a perspective view of the body of the closure-cap;
Fig. 8 is a perspective view of the operatingmember; and l Fig. 9 is a perspective view of the closuremember. In the description and claims, the various parts are identified by specic names for convenience, but they are intended to be as generic in their application as the prior art will permit. The body III of the closure-cap is preferably formed of metal and is secured to the rim or flange II of the bottle I2 by having the annular iiange I3 of the body I0 flow-pressed into gripping engagement with the rim or flange II of the bottle, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4. If desired, a disk III of cork or other suitable packing material may be interposed betweenthe top I5 of the bottle and the lower face I6 of the body I0, to render the connection liquid-tight, and also avoid breaking the bottle. If desired, a packing-disk or washer I1 of cork or other suitable material may be cemented against the upper face or seat I8 of the body.
The operating-member I9 is preferably formed of metal and has the lower portion of the annular ange 20 now-pressed inward to engage the 5 annular reduced portion 2I of the body so as to hold the body I0 and operating-member I9 in assembled relation, but to permit their free rotation relative to each other through a limited angle of rotation. 10
The body III has upstanding portions 22 and 23, which serve to hold the lower face 24 of the operating-member I9 spaced above the washer I1 to provide room for a closure-member 25. The closure-member 25 is preferably formed of 15 metal and has a downwardly-extending'pin or stud 26 secured thereto and adapted to slidably engage in a guide-slot 21 in the body I0. The positional relation of the slot 21 is indicated by broken lines in Fig. 5, although this slot is 20 not. actually present in the parts shown in this gure. The closure-member 25 also has secured thereto an upwardly-extending pin or stud 28 adapted to slidably engage in a guide-slot 29 in the operating-member I9. erating-member I9 respectively have substantially-aligned apertures 30 and 3l adapted to form a pouring-opening 32. When the operating-member lI9 is rotated clockwise '(looking toward the top of the operating-member), or anti- 30 clockwise (looking at Figs. 5 and 6), the slots 21 and 29, acting upon the pins 26 and 28, cause the closure-member 25 to be moved from the position indicated in Fig. 6 to that shown in Fig. 5 to bring the closure-portion 33 across the pour- 35 ing-opening 32 and to project the ear-portion 34 out through a slot 35 in the side surface or flange 20 of the operating-member I9 to bring theaperture 36 in substantial alignment with the aperture 31 of the ear 38 formed on the'40 sideof the operating-member (Figs. 1 and 3). The movement of the ear 34 out through the slot 35 may be limited in any suitable way, as, for example. by the edge of the ear engaging one or both of the side edges of the slot 35. If de- 45 sired, a wire 39 may be passed through the openings 36 and 31 and provided with a seal 40.
When the operating member is rotated clockwise from the position shown in Fig. 5 to that shown in Fig. 6, the slots 21 and 29 50 actuate pins 26 and 28 to movethe closuremember 25 to project the portion 4I of the closure-member 25 out through a slot 42 in the side-surface or flange 20 of the operatingmember I9, and to bring the aperture 43 of the 55 The body m and op- 2s edges of sint 42 or otherwise. The yieldaue' washer I1 aids in easily maintaining a liquidtight closure with small friction between the washer l1 and closure-member 25.
It'will be observed that by providing the slots 35 and 42 in the flange of the operating-member, this construction permits of a large degree of travel of the closure-member 25 and therefore a large pouring-opening, while at the same time providing an attractive, elcient construction, whereby the closure-member may be sealed.
The invention may be carried out in other specie ways than that herein set forth without departing from the spirit and essential characteristics of the invention, and the present embodiment is therefore to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, and all changes coming within the meaning and equivalency range of the appended claims are intended to be embraced therein.
I claim:
