Description

April 2, 1957 M. SKAIST 2,787,496
EVAPORABLE DEODORANT BOTTLE Filed Nov. 19, 1956 INVENTOR ATTORNEYS United States Patent EVAPORABLE DEODORANT BOTTLE Morris Skaist, Baltimore, Md., assignor to Tabtrol Company, Baltimore, Md., a partnership Application November 19, 1956, Serial No. 622,942
3 Claims. (Cl. 299-24) The present invention relates to evaporable deodorant bottles, and more particularly to such bottles having deodorant wicks associated therewith.
The primary object of the invention is to provide a deodorant bottle having a wick with a large cross-sectional area to provide a maximum evaporable surface.
Another object of the invention is to provide an evaporable deodorant bottle in which the wick remains in a single position without the necessity of moving the wick in the bottle when deodorizing is desired.
A further object of the invention is to provide an evaporable deodorant bottle in which the wick is sealed by a cap when deodorizing is undesired.
A still further object of the invention is to provide an evaporable deodorant bottle which is inexpensive to manufacture, simple to use, and which is completely efiective in its action.
Other objects and advantages will become apparent in the following specification when considered in the light of the attached drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the invention.
Figure 2 is an enlarged fragmentary vertical crosssection taken along the line 2-2 of Figure 1, looking in the direction of the arrows, with the sealing cap in place.
Figure 3 is a plan view of the invention with the sealing cap removed.
Figure 4 is a horizontal cross-section taken along the line 4--4 of Figure 2, looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure 5 is an exploded perspective view illustrating the construction and assembly of the wick and wick holding cap.
Referring now to the drawings in detail wherein like reference characters indicate like parts throughout the several figures, the reference numeral indicates generally a bottle for containing a deodorizing liquid material. The bottle 10 is provided with a conventional neck 11 which is provided with external screw threads 12, again in the conventional manner.
A metallic cap 13 is provided with a cylindrical side Wall 14 having internal screw threads 15 formed therein. A circular disc wall 16 is formed integrally with the cy lindrical side wall 14 and extends across the upper end thereof. The cap 13 is provided with an externally flaring lip 17 around the peripheral free edge thereof opposite the wall 16.
The wall 16 of the cap 13 is provided with a pair of spaced apertures 18 through which is threaded a wick 19 so that a portion 20 thereof will overlie the cap 13 between the apertures 18, as best shown in Figure 2. The wick 19 has depending spaced leg portions 21 and 22 which are adapted to extend into the bottle 10 when the cap 13 is in position on the neck 11 with the screw threads 15 cooperating with the screw threads 12.
A cloth disc 23 is centrally positioned over the cap 13 and has the peripheral edge portions 2 fllfiwof brought downwardly into contact with the outer face of the cylindrical wall 14 of the cap 13 terminating adjacent the lip 17, as best shown in Figure 2.
The cloth disc 23 is arranged in contact with the portion 20 of the wick 19 so that fluid may flow therebetween by capillary action. A band 25 of circular configuration is positioned in contact with the peripheral edge portion 24 of the cloth disc 23 so as to clamp the cloth disc 23 to the cap 13, as best seen in Figure 2.
A plastic cap 26 is provided with a cylindrical side wall 27 and a closed top wall 28, and is adapted to be positioned over the cap 13 in contact with the band 25 so as to seal the cloth disc 23 and wick 19 from the atmosphere.
In the use and operation of the invention a highly concentrated slow evaporating deodorant liquid is placed in the bottle 10, and the cap 13 with depending wick 19 is fastened thereon with the wick 19 immersed in the deodorant liquid. The cap 26 is engaged over the cap 13 to seal the bottle 10 for shipping purposes and during periods when the deodorant is not needed.
The wick 19 through the portion 20 thereof will maintain the cloth disc 23 in a wet condition. The surface of the cloth disc 23 is of suflicient size to provide a considerable area of evaporation so that effectiveness of the device will be very great.
The amount of evaporation from the disc 23 may, under some conditions, be too great. In such cases a cap (not shown), the same as cap 26, is provided with perforations and placed over the disc 23 to retard the evaporation therefrom. The perforated cap would, of course, be replaced with the cap 26 for shipping and at other times when desirable to seal the bottle 10.
Having thus described the preferred embodiment of the invention, it should be understood that numerous structural modifications and adaptations may be resorted to without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
What is claimed is:
1. An evaporable deodorant dispensing device comprising a liquid deodorant containing receptacle of the type having an externally threaded neck, an internally threaded cylindrical wall adapted for cooperation with the threads of said neck, a wall extending across one end of said cylindrical wall and integrally joined thereto, said last named wall having a pair of spaced apertures extending therethrough, a wick threaded through said apertures with depending opposite end portions extending into said receptacle, a cloth disc overlying said last named wall and said cylindrical wall in contact with said disc, a band clamping said cloth disc to said cylindrical wall, and a cap engaged over said cloth disc and said band for sealing said receptacle.
2. A device as claimed in claim 1 wherein said wick is formed of a single piece of material and has the central portion thereof engaged over the top of the apertured wall.
3. A device as claimed in claim 2 wherein said cylindrical wall is provided with an outwardly projecting annular lip on the free edge thereof with said lip forming a stop for said band.
