IMPROVEMENT lN MILK-CANS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 222,743, dated December 16, 1879 application filed July 11, 1879.
certain new and useful Improvements in Milk- Fans, of which the following is a specification.
The object ot' my invention isto furnish a i milk-can which shall be very strong and d urable and not likely to leak, and having'its parts so connected that they may be readily separated to facilitate the cleaning of the can.
To this end my invention consists in a milkcan having the bottom and entire body struck up or spun of a single piece of sheet metal, provided at its upper edge with a reenforce band, screwthreaded internally, and having an externally screw threaded breast piece formed of a single piece of ductile metal, with a neck for receiving the cover, all substantially as herein described and shown.
The accompanying drawing represents acentral vertical section of a millecan embodying myimprovements.
A designates the body, and B the breastpiece, of my can, both being ot'the usual shape. In order to enable the can to be more readily cleaned, I connect the body with the shoulder in such manner that they may be readily separated and connected, and this connection is formed by an internal screw-thread in the upper edge of the can and an external screwthread on the lower edge of the breast-piece. In order to provide the screw-threads in the can, I provide the upper edge of the same with a re-ent'orcin g band, a, extending entirely around the can, whereby the threads can be formed without weakening the can, and a firm connection obtained between the latter and the breast-piece.
This method of separating the two parts of the can for cleaning enables milk lodging 011 the inside of the shoulder at its junction with the body to be readily removed, and it generally facilitates the cleaning of the interior of the can. It also enables either part to be replaced in case of fracture without the expense of replacing the can. entirely.
The body A, together with the bottom 11, is made without seam or joint from a single piece of ductile metal--such as steel, copper, iron, or brass by spinning or drawing. The knee 0, at the juncture of the bottom I) and the body, is shown as rounded, and thereby increases the strengthof the can and renders it more easy to clean than if angular. The bottom is shown as concave, and when thus made it increases the strength of the can.
The breast-piece B,-together with its neck d, is also made from a single piece of ductile metal, without sea-1n or joint. The mouth 6 of the can is preferably made outwardly flaring, thus forming adrip-cup for catching any milk which otherwise might be lost, and returning it to the can.
The cover 0 may be attached to the can by a chain, D, to prevent its loss.
It will be seen that by my invention I produce a can which, as it is composed only of two pieces, is much stronger than a can made of several pieces, one which may be easily kept clean, and one which may be made very cheaply.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A milk-can having the bottom and entire body struck up or spun of a single piece of ductile metal, provided at its upper edge with a re-enforce band and internal screw-threads, and having an externally screw threaded breast-piece, also formed of a single piece of ductile metal, with a neck for receiving the cover, substantially as shown and described.
