' H. VAN KAMMEN.
FUNNEL. No. 343,871. Patented June 15, 1886 72 III: J l 15' INVENTQR A BY ATTORNEYS.
UNITED STATES PATENT Erica,
HARMANNUS VAN KAMMEN, OF GRANDVILLE, MICHIGAN.
FUNNEL.
EPEGIPICAE'IQN forming part of Letters Patent No. (M33371, dated June 15, 1886.
Application filed January 20, 1886. Serial No. 189,228. No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARMANNUS VAN KAM- MEN, of Grandville, in the county of Kent and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Improvementin Combined Liquid Measures and Funnels, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the anneXed drawings, forming a part thereof, in which Figure 1 is a vertical transverse section of myimproved liquid measure and funnel. Fig. 2 is a plan view.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both figures of the drawings.
The object of my invention is to provide a measure for liquids, with means for discharging its contents directly into a bottle, jug, or other narrow-mouthed vessel without the employment of aseparate funnel.
My invention consists in a liquid measure provided with a conical bottom having in the center thereof a screw-threaded nipple, an in ternally-threaded tapering tube received on the nipple, a yielding valve-seat placed between the tube and the nipple, a ball-valve seated on the yielding seat and communicating by a rod with a valve-closing spring attached to the handle of the measure.
' The measure A in the present case is of cylindrical form, having the flaring lip a at the top, and provided with a conical centrallyapertured bottom, b, having a screw-threaded nipple, 0, attached thereto and communicating with the aperture. A tapering tube, d, which is threaded internally at its upper end, is screwed on the nipple c, and between the shoulder 6 formed in the tube and the end of the nipple c is placed a va1ve-seat,f, formed of yielding material, such as leather or rubber. Below the valve'scat f is placed a ballvalve, 9, having an eye, h, attached to one side thereof, which projects through thevalveseat into the nipple, and is connected to the rod 2', which extends upward above the top of the measure A and through one end of a fiat spring, j, and is provided with a flat head, is.
The springj is curved over the handle Z of the measure, and secured thereto by a rivet, m, or by soldering, or both. The spring j tends to raise the rod 1' and draw the ballvalve 9 against the valve-seat f, and thus prevent the escape of the contents of the measure through the nipple c and tube d.
The measure A is filled in the usual way, and when it is desired to discharge its contents into a bottle, jug, or other narrowmouthed vessel the tapering tube d is insert ed in the mouth of the vessel, and the fiat head is forced downward by the thumb against the pressure of the springj, thus pushing the valve 5/ away from its seat and allowing the contents of the measure to flow th rough the tapering tube into the vessel.
By placing the valve below the valve-seat the valve is washed whenever the measure is emptied, so that the valve is always clean and in condition to close tight.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. An improved measure consisting of the vessel A, provided with the handle Z, the conical aperturcd bottom I), and nipple c, having a valve-seat,f, the spring secured to the handle, the rod 2', having its upper end secured to the spring, and the ball-valve g, attached to the lower end of the said rod, substantially as herein shown and described.
2. As an improved article of manufacture, the measure A, having the centrally-apertured conical bottom I), an externally-threaded nipple, 0, attached thereto, the internally-threaded tapering tube (1, having the shoulder e, the yielding valve-seat), the ball-valve g, adapted to the Valve-seat, the rod t, connected with the valve and provided with a fiat head, 70, and the spring j, attached to the handle of the measure and arranged to close the valve substantially as herein shown and described. 7
