IMPROVEMENT IN OIL-CANS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 27,876, dated April l0, 1860.
To a/ZZ whom t muy concern.:
Beit known that I, WILLIAM C. ARTHUR, of the city and county of Baltimore, and State of Maryland, have inventeda new and useful Improvement in the Construction of Cans for Oiling Machinery and for other Purposes, of which the following'is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which makev part ot' this specification.
Figure l is a perspective view, and Figs. 2 andSare vertical sections,of a can with my improvement. A, Figs. 2 and 3, is a simple spring, which may be either iiat, half-round, constructed of a simple piece of wire, or made. in any desirable form. One end of this spring is riveted, soldered, or secured in any other suitable manner to the side of the can Z). The opposite end, c, is left free.
Figs. 4 and 5 represent a horizontal section ot' the can directly above the spring. To the free end of the spring is attached a rod, d, which passes through an opening in the top of the can, and terminates in a button, c. To that portion of the spring directly under the opening of the spout a rod, f, is fixed. This rod is long enough to pass to any .desired distance into the spout, and near the upper end a disk of leather or other suitable material is attached to a piece of metal secured to the rod, as shown at g, Figs. 2 and 6. The spout is made in two parts, the lower portion somewhat shorter than the rod above described, as shown at h, Fig. 6. In the upper part of the spout a valve-seat, ji, is xed. This valveseat is placed in such position that when the two parts of the spout are brought into their proper places the leathered portion of the rod above described comes into close contact with it. The twosections of the spout are united 'either by means of a screw previously formed upon them by being soldered together or joined securely in any other suitable manner.
The can may be made in any of the usual forms.
The different parts being in proper position, the operation of the device is obvious. The extremity of the rod f, projecting above the piece of leather g, passes loosely into the opening of the valve-seat, serving as a guide, and the valve is closed by the action of the spring. The can may now be inverted and no part of vits contents escape; but the valve may be opened to any desirable extent by pressure upon the button e, and the contained liquid allowed to flow out rapidly or slowly, as is desired. Then the pressure is removed, the spring again closes the valve.
' rilhe arrangement above described-1'.. e., the exact form of valve and its position in the pipe-is not essential, but is one which will accomplish the object in view in a very per- 'ect manner.
Instead ot' employing the valve in the pipe, the saine object may be accomplished by eX- tending the lower end of the spout until it comes into close contact with the spring, the spring at the point of contact being furnished with a disk ot' leather or other suitable substance somewhat larger than the opening of the pipe which it closes by Contact with, it. This arrangement is exhibited by the sectional Figs. 3 and 4f.
The advantages of a can made after the plan proposed are plain. The waste of oil, when it is necessary to invert the can in order to reach parts oi' machinery not easily accessible, is eiifeetually avoided, as the oil will not flow until the valve is opened, and this valve lis completely under the control of the hand in which it is held. The device is so simplethat its addition in making a common can will cost but a triiie. It is not liable to get out of order, and can easily be repaired in case this should happen.
Having thus described my improvement, I
`disclaim the employment of a helical spring in any manner applied for the purpose of closing and opening a valve or valves in a can or" any description; but
That I claim as my invention is The combination of ythe spring A with th valve in the spout, arranged as above described.
XVM. O. ARTHUR.
