STEPHEN s. NEWTON, OE EINGHAMTON, NEW YORK.

BOTTLE-STOPPER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 280,503, dated July 3, 1883.

Application filed March 4, 1882.

To a/ZZ whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, STEPHEN S. NEWTON, a citizen of the United States of America, re siding at Binghamton, in the county of Broome and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bottle-Stoppers and I do hereby declare the following to be a full,clear, and eXact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had tothe accompanying drawings, andto letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

Figure l is a vertical section of abottlehaving my invention applied thereto. Fig. 2 is a similar section, showing a modified form of a part of the invention; and Figs. 3, 4, and 5 are detached views of details.

In Figs.` l and 2, A is a discharge-tube, having a port, a, near its upper end. B is an eX- panded head, its lower portion being flaring, as at b. The tube A is screw-threaded externally. C F are respectively the upper and lower parts of a cylindrical tube surrounding the discharge-tubef is a groove formed between the adjacent ends of the cylindrical tubes C F. E is an internally-threaded ring or cylinder, adapted to engage with the threads of the discharge-tube. In Fig. 1 this threaded cylinder is held in place by a flange at its upper end, seated in the groove f, where it is confined by means of a cut ring, G. In Fig. 2 the ring E is made of rubber7 seated in groove 35 f, and iitting closely thereto.

By preference I construct the upper endY of cylinder E with projecting ears e e, (see Fig. 3,) which take into vertical grooves e e', formed in the inner faces of the upper cylindrical part,

(No model.)

C, whereby the threaded cylinder is eft'ectually prevented from turning around when the tube A is rotated, which may .be readily done by means of the knob B, the edge or side of which should be milled; but, instead of lugs e e, the upper edge'of cylinder E may be notched, as indicated in dotted lines at e, Fig. 3, and iit over inwardly-projecting vertical ribs on the part C, which will accomplish the same end.

In the drawings I have represented parts C, F as constituting the neck of a bottle, being formed, in one piece with the body, of either glass or metal. Vhen preferred, the lower end of the discharge-tube may be slitted and expanded outwardly by means of a suitable instrument, as shown in Fig. 1, to b'e inserted through the port c after the discharge-tube has been screwed into the neck of the bottle, thus forming a flange, d, adapted to restrict the upward movement of the discharge-tube within certain limits.

What I claim is- 1. In a .bottle-stopper, the combination of cylindrical portions O F, the groove or seat f, the screw-threaded discharge-tubeA, and an internally-screw-threaded section secured in the groove f, substantially as set forth.

2. Inabottle-stopper, the combination,with the cylindrical portions CA F, of the screwthreaded discharge-tube A, the screw-threaded cylinder E, and the retaining-ring G, substantially as set forth.

In testimony whereof I afliX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
