TAG FOR BOTTLES.
No. 276,298. Patented Apr. 24, 1883.

TAG FOR BOTTLES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 276,298, dated April 24, 1883. Application filed January 19, 1883. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, NATHAN K. STANLY, of Newburyport, in the county of Essex, State of Massachusetts, haveinventedacertain new and useful Improvement in Bottle-Tags, of which the following is a description sufficiently full, clear, and exact to enable any person skilled in the art or science to which said invention appertainsto make and use the same, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a side elevation of my improved tag detached from the bottle; Fig. 2, a view of the tag attached to an ordinary bottle, and Fig. 3 a'view of the tag attached to a bottle provided with means for retaining the tag in position.
Like letters of referenceindicate corresponding parts in the different figures of the drawings.
My invention relates to that class of bottletags which are detachable and used for desig' natingthecontentsof thebottle; andit consists in a novel construction and arrangement of the parts, as hereinafter more fully set forth and claimed, by which a simpler, cheaper, and more effective device of this character is produced than is now in ordinary use.
Tags of this class are generally attached to the bottle by means of a short chain passed loosely over the neck of the same, and when the bottle is used in pouring out its contents the tag is liable to fall down into aposition to interfere with the operation. The chain being loose on the neck, the tag is also liable to get accidentally displaced or turned, so that the name on the same cannot be readily ascertained.
To obviate these objections is one of the designs of my improvement, and to that endI make use of means which will be readily understood by all conversant with such matters from the following explanation, the extreme simplicity of the invention rendering an elaborate description of the same unnecessary.
In the drawings, A represents the bottle,
B the body of the tag, and G the attaching wire or ring. The wire consists of a coiled spring or helix, as shown in Fig. 1, the tag proper or body being rigidly secured to the same by solder, or in any other suitable manner; or the tag may be jointed thereto by a hinge at 00, if desired, although I deem a rigid connection of the parts preferable to ajoint, as the tag is thereby kept in a better position on the bottle. The tag is designed to be properly inscribed, and is curved or concaved to correspond with the contour of the body of the bottle on which it is to be used. The wire for attaching the tag is so constructed as to fit the neck of the bottle, the coil being forced down over the neck of the same in attaching the tag and acting contractively to keep the tag in proper position on the bottle.
As an additional means of keeping the tag in position, I sometimes construct the neck of the bottle with the annular boss or bead m near its base, the wire expanding readily to enable it to be passed over the boss, and contracting below the same, as shown in Fig. 3; but as I propose to make a bottle provided with aboss, as described, the subject-matter of other Letters Patent, I do not claim the same in this application.
It will be obvious that tags of this character may be readily fitted to bottles of nearly any size, and that they will retain their position when in use much better than the ordi nary tags.
Having thus explained my invention, what I claim is- Abottle-ta'g having a coiled-wire spring for attachingit to the bottle, the body of the tag being secured to the spring, and the spring adapted to pass directly over the neck of the bottle and secure the tag in positionby the contractile action of the coils around the neck, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
' NATHAN K. STANLY.
