The primary object of the invention is the provision of a spout of this character, wherein the same is attachable to the open mouth or a can having a Irictionally held closure cap so that the contents of the can can be poured similarly when held within a pitcher or the like, the spout being of novel construction and is readily and easily applied to and removed from a can and when applied renders the can serviceable for pouring purposes.
Another object of the invention is the provision ct a spout or this character; which is simple in construction, thoroughly reliable and efllcient in its operation, firmly latched to the open top of a can for the pouring 0! its contents, strong, durable, and inexpensive to manufacture.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in the features oi construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinaiter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, which discloses the preferred embodiment of the invention and pointed out in the claims hereunto appended.
in the accompanying drawing:
Figurelisatop planviewotanopencan showing a spout constructed in accordance with the invention applied thereto.
Figure 2 is a side elevation partly in section.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the spout detached.
Figure 4 is a sectional view on the line l'l of Figure 2 looking in the direction of the arrows.
Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views in Referring to the drawing in detail. A designates generally a can having the open top III, the opening of which accommodates a frictionally held closure cap (not shown) and these parts are 0! conventional kind.
The spout constituting the present invention body H and the ridge a seat in the i'orm of a channel or groove iii for the reception of the edge of the opening in the open top ill of the can for the interfltting of the spout with the top so that such spout will enable the convenient pouring of the contents of. the can therefrom.
The ridge i4 is coextensive with the flange II and likewise the seat i5 is coextensive therewith while intermediate of the flange i3 is an inherently resilient latching tongue or jaw'iii which engages with the top iii of the can when the spout is properly set in the opening in the said top for the firm and secure detachable latching of the spout in place and thus avoiding accidental detachment or such spout when the same is in use.
What is claimed is:
1. A spout or the kind described comprising a body forming an outwardly tapered trough-like lip having a rounded inner edge, a flange following said inner edge and having an outtumed ridge forming a seat between it and the said lip for accommodating the edge of an open ing in a can top, and means associated with the flange to eflect a latch for the fastening of the lip in place in the opening in said can top.
2. A spout of the kind described comprising a body forming an outwardly tapered trough-like lip having a rounded inner edge, a flange following said inner edge and having an outturned ridge forming a seat between it and the said lip for accommodating the edge 01' 'an opening in a can top, and a latching tongue formed with the flange for locking the lip engaged with the edge of the opening in the can top.
