BOTTLE-STOPPER.
Y SPECIFICATIQN forming part of Letters Patent No. 359,373, dated March l5, 1887. Application filed January 20, 1887. Serial No. 294,898. (No model.) Patented in En g'and December 7, 1885, No. 15,015.
' zo 1.5,0150 of which thefollowing is a specification.
This invention relates to means of stoppering bottles, particularly such as contain aerated liquor, by applying a cork in combina- 15 tion with a cap so arranged as to retain the cork in its place notwithstanding internal pressure acting` on it, and to facilitate the extraction of the cork without requiring a corkscrew, as will be explained with reference to 2o the accompanying drawings. v
Figure 1 is a vertical section of a bottleneck stoppered according ,to our invention. Fig. 2 is a side View, and Fig. 3 is a plan of the cap. z 5 The top ofthe bottleneck has formed on it a screwthread, a, preferably of rounded form, as shown.
metal, is made with a corresponding thread, b, and with a central hole, which has its edge 3o serrated or toothed, as shown at o, the inwardly-projecting teeth or serrations being benta little downward. The cap being screwed on the bottle-mouth, a cork (indicated by the The cap, which may be of thin A dotted lines cl in Fig. l) is driven in. In entering it freely passes the bent-down teeth c; 3 5 but these act as barbs, preventing the cork from being forced out again by internal pressure. When it is desired to open the bottle, the cap is unscrewed, the cork coming with it. The upper edge, e, of the cap is preferably milled 4o to give better hold for screwing and unscrewing. A cork washer, j', may be placed under the cover of the cap.
Having thus described the nature. of this invention and the best means We know for car- 4 5 rying it out in practice, we claim- A bottle-stopper consisting of a cork and cap, the cap being made with a screw-thread to't a thread on the exterior of the bottlemouth, and with a central serrated hole through 5o which the cork is forced, substantially as and for the purposes herein set forth.
In testimony whereof we have signed our names to this specication, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses, this 6th day of J an- 5 5 uary, A. D. 1887.
