J. ALBERT KIMBALL, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
TOILET-BOTTLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part Of Letters Patent No. 242,331, dated May 31, 1881.
Application filed April 18, 1881.
To all whom it may concern: v
Be it known that I, J. ALBERT KIMBALL, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Toilet-Bottles, ofwhich the following is a specification. I
My invention relates to bottles such as are generally used for containing perfumed, tonic, or other liquids, or powders auxiliary to the toilet or table, and in which the top or stopple is provided with a small central tube or spiller, commonly closed by a screw-cap.
Bottles of this class,as heretofore made, are liable to the objection that the cap, when telnporarily removed, is accidentally mislaid or dropped and lost, or, being moist from the liquid in the bottle, soilsthe furniture on which it is temporarily placed, and gathers dust therefrom, imparting the same to the spiller or top when replaced.
The object of my invention is to obviate this objection by providin gasimple device by which the cap is permanently, though movably, attached to the bottle-top or stopple in such a manner that when removed from the spiller it may be conveniently fastened and held in a position in which it is not interfering with the ordinary manipulations of using the bottle.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a vertical sect-ion of the upper part of a toilet-bottle embodying my present invention, the cap being tightened on the spiller. Fig. 2 is a similar section, showing the cap unscrewed and raised above the spiller. is a perspective view of the same with the cap swung down outside of the edge of the bottletop and temporarily fastened in the desired position, not interfering with the manipulations of using the bottle.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts in the several figures.
A designates the bottle, and B its top or stopple, provided with the ordinary spilling-tube, b.
The stopple B may be made either to fit the inside of the neck of the bottle, as shown in Fig. 1, or it may be screwed down, or otherwise fastened, upon the outside thereof, as shown in Fig. 2, both modifications bein g common. In either case it must be so made that a portion of it, above the glass, will project at v Fig. 3'
(No model.)
opposite sides sufiiciently near to or beyond the outer circumference of the bottle-neck to allow of securin g to it two diametrically opposite headed pins or buttons, 0, so that the latter will be outside of the said circumference.
In about the same horizontal plane as the buttons 0, a little apart from them and at alternately opposite sides of their connectingline, are fastened or formed upon the stopple two short pins or catches, a c, of the same size as the shanks of the buttons 0.
The cap D is swiveled to abail, E, by an upward-projecting central pin going through a hole in the bail, a milled thumb-piece or knob, d, being rigidly secured to the upper end of the swiveling-pin to facilitate the turning of the cap. The ends of the bail E extend downward on opposite sides of the bottle-neck, and are slotted longitudinally, their slots 0 fitting upon-the shanks of the buttons 0, and being of suitable length to allow of applying and removing the cap D upon and from the spiller b, and swinging it down in the position shown in Fig. 3, while the bail slides and turns upon the buttons 0, so as not to become detached from the stopple B.
The little pins or catches c c are rounded or beveled upon their outer ends, so that when the cap D is unscrewed from the spiller b and swung down, as in Fig. 3, a slight pressure will spring the edge of one leg of the bail over the end of the pin 0 until the latter enters the slot 0, and, as the pressure is removed and the "bail resumes its normal tension, it will remain locked in the desired said position until raised at will. It swung down toward the side opposite to that of the position in Fig. 3, it will be similarly caught by the pin 0 entering the slot 6 of the other leg of the bail E. The same device will, of course, work equally well, whether the cap D be made without threads and fastened by mere downward pressure, or whether it be applied inside the spiller-tube 11, instead of on the outside thereof.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The combination of the slotted bail E, the cap 1), or its described equivalent, swiveled to the said bail, and the bottle-top or stopple B, having buttons (J, for retaining the bail, I two horizontal positions, substantially as heresubstantially as and for the purpose set forth. i inbefore set forth.
2. The combination of the slotted bail E the cap D, swiveled t0 and having a thumb ALBEIA IXIMLALL' piece, 61, above the said bail, and the stopple Witnesses: B, having buttons 0, for retaining the bail and catches 0 c, for locking the bail in either of A. W. ALMQVIST, J OIIN M. STELLE.
