9 Claims.
This invention relates to bottle assemblies, and has for one of its objects the provision of inexpensive, yet highly efficient means for compactly packing .a pair of bottles, one above the other,
to form a neat and'attractive assembly or unit, such packing beingeffected in such manner as to make the bottles readily accessible for service.
Another object of the invention is to provide a bottle casing of two or more sections, adapted to be joined in tandem, wherein the bottom of the upper section is a duplicate in form of the cap of the upper section, and similarly to the cap of the upper section, may be used as a drinking cup, and in such capacity servelthe bottle immediately beneath it.
Another object of the invention is to design a casing economical to manufacture, and for that purpose I have devised a casinghaving a plurality of parts, similar in form, to manufacture which, the same tools, dies, jigs and methods of manufacture may be used.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent upon reading the specification in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, inwhich 2.5- Figure 1 is a front elevation, partly in section, of my improved bottle assembly;
Figure 2 is a bottom plan view of the upper bottle casing, looking in the direction of the arrows, line 2-2 of Figure 1;
Figure 3 is an elevation of one of a pair of coupling heads used in the assembly illustrated iriFigure 1, one of said coupling heads being used in association with each casing section;
and v Figure 4 is a top plan view of the coupling *head' shown in Figure 3.
Referring now to thejdrawing in detail, 5 indicatesin general an assembled casing embody- I my invention, such construction comprising pper outer shell or casing section 6 and a similarlower shell or casingsection l. The lowenroll-1 is "provided with a bottom closure 8,
f which is preferably unitary therewith, and which ;.--closure'.has a central depression l2, for the locashock absorber. Near the upper end of -;thi wer shell is'a' ring 9, and a collar I0 is lfo rmedat the-top thereof. Mounted between 'saidiringfl and the collar l0,;and supported by .said collar'fisf a cylindrical sleeve H which is preferably screw threaded.
1937, Serial No. 159,687
' The upper shell 6, is identical in construction with the lower shell 1 just described, except for its length and the bottoni closure. In the upper shell, the bottom closure consists of a cup which also acts as a cap for said lower casing 1. This closure 30 is identical in form with the cup 31 of the upper casing. The cup in the lower end of this upper casing, however, is preferably made unitary therewith as shown. This closure may also be used as a drinking cup 10 for the contents of the lower bottle. The top of the closure member 30, is provided with a central depression 34 for the purpose of locating a shock absorber therein and in this particular the said cup-closure is similar to. the closure 8 16 of the lower casing.
The bottles illustrated in my disclosure are of the vacuum type. The bottle I4 is positioned in the lower casing section I with its bottom resting on the shock absorber l3, which is preferably in the form of a rubber pad shaped on its upper surface to follow generally the contour of the bottom of the bottle. The lower surface of the pad is so shapedas to enable it to fit in the depression l2 of the bottom closure 8, and to be held thereby against shifting. The ring 9 besides acting as a support for the cylindrical sleeve II, also acts as a locater to maintain the bottle in its proper relation to the walls of the casing section I. Upon the bottle being located in the casing l the coupling head illustrated in Figure 3 is fitted into the cylindrical sleeve H, said coupling having a thread portion 20 adapted to cooperate with the threaded portion of said sleeve. This coupling 35 head'is screwed down until its medial rim I9 forms an intimate connection with the collar I 0 of .the lower casing section I. The said coupling head has an annular breast portion l8,
which terminates in an annular packing cham- 40 her 26, in which is a resilient packing which supports the neck of the bottle near its mouth. The bottle is provided with a stopper 38, which may be of cork or other suitable material.
Theassembly of the lower bottle and casing section is now complete. The upper casing sec-' tion may now be screwed or otherwise secured to the casing section of the lower bottle assembly. Forthis purpose, the corrugated screw thread 33 of the bottom. closure 30 of the upper casing engages the screw thread 22 of the coupling head of the lower casing, and the upper casing is screwed down on the lower casing until the bead 3| is in intimate contact with the rim 19 of the coupling head, The shock absorber 35 is then located in the depression 24 of the cap 30, and the bottle 36, is seated thereon and is held in alignment and padded in exactly the same manner and by exactly similar means as described with reference to the bottle I4 in the lower casing Similarly, a stopper 38 is providedfor the bottle in the upper casing, and a cap 31 is provided which also may be used as a cup. A coupling head similar to that described to join the upper and lower casings together is provided for the top of the upper casing and the method of connecting this coupling head is 'exactly the same as in the lower casing. The cup for the upper casing, however, is a. separable unit and is provided with a beaded edge as shown which intimately contacts with the rim l9 when the same is used as a closure. 7
