LEVER ACTUATED OPERATING MECHANISM FOR SPOUT CLOSURES Filed Oct. 23, 1947 MZZZdmA Zgfias Patented Nov. 13, 1951 1;:-
r ti n FOR" SPOUT CLOSURES william udnllebus, Chicago,1ll., assignor to The .-Protectseal Gompany, Chicago, 111., a. corpo- 'A plicat o neith r-23, 1947, Serial No. 781,545 ,.,s.o1aim s.- (01.222473) a This invention relates to operating mechanism for spout closures of cans, andits principal object is .to provide a spring actuated-closure for the spout, of which the spring tightlyseats the clo- "sure on the spout, but its force is overcome somewhat when the closure operating means has been 'fcombination of parts hereinafter fully described and more definitely :claims. l.
The invention is clearly illustrated hr the accompanying drawing, in'whichp v Fig. 1 is a plan of a can equippediwith a spout pointed .out in the appended closure operating mechanismembodyinga simple I 5 dorm of. the present invention; r f Fig. 2 is a side elevation thereof with thepan Jpartly :broken' away andipartly brokeniout to show :a flame. arrester that is located'within the can; i .Fig. .3 is a cross section taken on the line3'-3 :aof Fig. 2; and 1 V s-...:Fig. 4 is axdetail section-taken on .line "4-1 of Fig.2. U V Referring to said drawing which is merely'illus- 'trative of one embodiment of :the iinventiom the referencecharacter 5 designates a canof .conventional form having a dome-shaped'top- '6, from which projects a spout 1, through which the can may be filled, and from which the contents may be poured out. The spout is welded orotherwise secured to the can top 6, and fromithe lower end of the spout leads 'aiifiame arr'ester 8, as is customary for cans handling hazardous liquids.
Riveted, welded or otherwise secured to the "can top is the base 9of a handleJfl whicheomprises the base, and two upright 'legsijl'l: connected at their upper ends by a handle grip l2. Lugs l3 projecttoward the spout from the legs H and support a closure operating lever ll'ip'ivotally connected to the lugs "ll-as by rivets l li or --their equivalents. The ends =-or the arms l lb -of "the lever-are connected by a 'bar 16, fofin'edinte- ,Pivotally mounted on a pair of ears [9, weldd orotherwise secured to the spout, is a closure carrying member zfl which carriesthe closure .2 I. If: desired, the closure carrying member may he inthe form of a metal stamping, or it may be constructed of cast metal. The closure carrying -me'mber is of L-shape and is generally U-shaped in cross:section. .Itslonger arm 22 has a domeshaped end23, in which is .pivotally mounted, as by aicotter pin 24, a stud 25 to which the closure 21 1 is secured. The closure may comprise a Ilangeddisc-like backing 26, in which is held a :gas treated washer 27, a disc 29 which bears against the washer and. a screw 28 which extends through the disc and washer and is threaded in the stud and seats the washer'on the backing 26.
The other arms 22a of the closure carrying member are pivotally mounted upon the ears 19 as by a headed pin 30, which extends through the arms 22a. and through the cars 19. A spring 31 having two coils that surround the pin 30 and terminate in arms 33, 33a. that bear respectively against the side of the spout and against the lower edge of the wall 20 of the closure carrying member functions to tightly hold the closure in its closed position on the spout.
A pair of links 34 connect the lugs H of the lever M with the closure carrying member 20 as at 35. The closure actuating lever is in the nature of the lever of the first order with the links 34 connected to the shorter arms lb of the lever.
' The lever I4 and links providea toggle joint, andwhen the lever is moved to the position seen in Fig. 3, the pivot connections between the lugs Fl -oi the lever and the links 34 approach'the dead "center between the pivot l5 of the lever and'the pivot connections 35 between the links and closure carrying member, giving the lever an enormous mechanical advantage against the spring. Toactuate the closure operating mechanism,
ithe'attendant places the palm of his hand upon "be 'un'derstood as limiting myself to the exact form, construction, arrangemern'. tion of parts herein shown and mentioned.

linkage pivotally connected to the adjacent end of the lever and to the closure carrying member for transmitting movement of said lever when the hand grip thereon is moved toward the handle griptosaid closure carrying member in a direction operative to move the closure to an open position.
3. In operating mechanism for spout closures, a can handle having two spaced legs and a hand grip connecting said legs, a lever having two lever arms fulcrumed upon said legs and connected at one end by a hand grip paralleling said handle grip and adapted to be manually moved towards said handle grip, a spout, a closure therefor, a closure carrying member pivoted on anaxis paralleling the axis of the lever, s, spring engaging said closure carrying member and adapted to urge the latter toward the closed position of the closure, and linkage pivotally connectedito the'leve'r and to the closure carrying member and forming with said lever a toggle joint. I 4. In operating mechanism-for spout closures a can handle having two spaced legsand a hand I grip 'conne'cting'said legs, a lever having two lever arms fulcrumed uponsaid legs and connected at one end'by a hand grip paralleling said handle grip and adapted to be manually moved towards said handle grip, a spout, a closure therefor, a
"closure carryingmember pivoted on said spout therefrom and a handle grip connecting said legs,
a lever having two lever arms fulcrumed 'upon said legs and connected atone end by a hand op m,-
4 grip paralleling said handle grip, a bar connecting the other ends of said lever arms, lugs projecting from said bar, a spout, a closure therefor, a pivotally mounted closure carrying member pivoted on an axis paralleling the axis of the lever, a spring engaging said closure carrying member and adapted'to urge the latter toward the closed position of the closure, andlinkage between the lugs of said lever and the closure carrying member forming with said lever a toggle joint.
6. In operating mechanism for spout closures, "'a can handle having a base, two spaced legs rising therefrom and a handle grip connecting said legs, a-lever having two lever arms fulcrumed upon said legs and connected at one end by a hand gripparalleling said handle grip, a bar connecting theother ends of said lever arms, lugs projecting from said bar, a's pout, a closure therefor, a
