FREDERICK E. AND FREDERICK STITZEL, OF LOUISVILLE, KEN- TCKYfASSI-GNORS TO THOMAS H. SHERLEY, OF` SAME'PLACE.

BOTTLE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 293,460, dated February 12, 1884,

Application filed November 30, 1883. (No model.)

To all whom, t may concern,.-

Be it known that we, FREDERICK E. HEI- NIG and FREDERICK STI'rzEL, of Louisville, Kentucky, have invented a new and useful Improvement iuBottles, of which the follow ing is a specification.

- the bottle, a little above the valve, a plug or stopper, with suitable openings,through which the contents may be poured. t r

In the accompanying drawings, Figures 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 aresectional views of a bottleneck, showing our invention, and diierent forms in which it may be applied. Fig. 4 shows side views-of different forms of the `plug orstopper above `the valve and different forms of the openings in the plug; and Fig. 7

is a sectional view of an upper plug, a valve,

and a lower plug containing a valvefseat.

The same letters indicate the same parts in y the different drawings.

A is the neck of a bottle. B is a plug or stopper. C is a valve. D is a cork or other bottlestopper. E are openings in the plug B. G is a valve-seat. I

We prefer to make the upper and lower plugs of glass, and to have the openings which are made in the edge or side of the upper plug of some of the forms shown in the drawings,

ffor the reason that a glass plug can be readily cemented or fastened immovably into the bottle-neck, and the form of openings shown prevent interference with the valve; but we do not wish to be understood as limiting ourselves to the use of that material or the indicated forms of openings. m

In Fig. 2 is shown a form of our invention in which the upper part of the bottle-neck may be made in a` separate piece, with the plug B forming a portion of it, and the lower part of the `bottleneck may be contracted to form a valve-seat, and also a seat on which to cement or fasten the detached upper part after the bottle is lled and the Valvein place.

4In practice, with our invention, if the bottleneck is not contracted so* as to forni a valveseat, the bottle is filled, the lower plug, Fig. 7, carrying the valve-seat G, is cemented or fastened into the neck of the bottle A, the valve C, which is formed of glass, hard rubber,

or any other suitable material, dropped to its Y seat G, and the plug B is cemented or fastened into the neck A above the valve C. If the bottle-neck A is contracted so as to form a valveseat, then, after the bottle has been lled, the valve C is dropped to its seat G in bottleneck A, and the plug B is then ce mented or fastened into the neck A; or, if the form shown in Fig. 2 is used, the detached piece, carrying the plug B, is cemented or fastenedV onto the neck A. In all cases the plug B is to be placed sufficiently above the valve C to allow the latter a little play, when the bottle is reversed or turned bottom up.

v The bottle may be stoppered in any of the usual ways.

By means of our invention the contents may be readily poured from the bottle, but the bottle cannot be refilled, and the manufacturer is thus protected from the sale of a spurious article under his name or brand.

Having fully described our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, isfv In combination with a bottle having an inner projection forming avalve-seat, G, the perforated plug or stopper B, andvalve C, se-

cured by a stopper, D, substantially as shown and described.
