UNITED STATES W PATENT FFICEQ JOHN \V. JACKSON, OF SHARPSVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA.
OIL-CAN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 281,189, dated July 10, 1883.
Application filed 17, 1883. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JOHN XV. JACKSON, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Sharpsville, in the county of Mercer and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain dew and useful Improvements in Oil-Cans; 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 to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in oil-cans for lubricating purposes; and it consists in the construction and combination of the parts, as will be hereinafter more'fnlly set forth, and pointed out in the claim. By means of this combination the flow can be instantly checked by removing the pressure from the thumb-piece, which will close the valve in the spout and cut off the entrance of air into the can, and it will prevent the oil from being wasted if the can is accidentally overturned.
In the accompanying drawings I have illus trated my invention by vertical longitudinal sections, indicated by Figure 1. Fig. 2 is an enlarged view of the lower end of the spout.
In the aforesaid drawings, A represents the body of an oil'can of ordinary construction, which is provided with a handle, A, over which handle, and to the conical port-ion, is
secured a tube, 13, which. is closed at its upper end by the plate or disk I), which has a central perforation. This tube B, near its lower end, which opens into the body of the can A, is also provided with a similar perforated disk, 1). Through this tube passes a rod, 0, which is provided at its upper end with a thumb-piece, and at a portion between the two perforated disks 1) and b with a suitable lug or side wing, 0, against which bears a spiral spring, a. The lower end of this rod projects into the can A, while its upper end extends beyond the outer end of the cylinder B. At a point on this rod 0 outside of the cylinder B, when said rod is extended outwardly, is provided a slot, (1, which forms a vent or passage-way for the air to the interior of the can when pressure is brought to bear upon the thumb-piece; otherwise the vent is closed.
To the interior of the can A, a little above the upper side of the cylinder 13, are secured two projecting wings, D, within which is pivoted the dog E by means of the pivot e. The outer end of this pivoted dog is provided with a circular cup, 0, while its opposite end, against which the lower end of the rod (1 strikes, is straight, or at right angles with the base of the tube B.
The spout F, which is attached to the upper part of the oil-can exteriorly, is of ordinary construction, and it is provided at its upper part, as shown at f, with a valve-seat,the lower part of this rod being provided with suitable guides, which are attached to the spout,through which guides the rod G, which carries the valve f, passes. To the lower part of this rod G is attached a suitable spring, which bears upon the upper guide in the spout and upon the projections formed on the rod G, by means of which the valve-rod is held in a retracted position.
Within the base of the spout F is secured a perforated cylinder, h, which has an opening in its bottom, through which passes the end of the rod G.
If desirable, there may be attached near the end of the valve-rod a washer, as shown at h, so that when the lower end of this perforated cylinder is filled with oil it will be forced upward and out of the spout when the valve is pushed upwardly.
Having thus described the construction of my invention, it will be seen that it operates substantially as follows: VVhcu the thumb piece which carries the rod 0 is depressed, a vent will be provided by the slot (1 in said rod, through which the air may pass to the interior of the can, and the dog E, which carries the cup-shaped end 6, will be raised against the end of the rod G, thus opening the valve f.
It will thus be seen that the oil can be ejected as desired, and as soon as pressure is removed from the thumb-piece the flow will be stopped by reason of the air being out off and the valve at end of the spout being closed.
Q esmiss') Having thus described my invention, what shaped end, 6, the parts being organized subic I claim as new, and desire to secure byLetters stantially as shown, and for the purpose set Patent, is forth.
