ALEXANDRE LEFORESTIER, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
BOTTLE-STOPPER FASTENING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 408,419, dated August 6, 1889.
Application filed October 30, 1888. Serial No. 289,535. (ModeL) To all whom it may concern.-
I Be it known that I, ALEXANDRE LEFORES- TIER, a citizen of the Republic of France, residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bottle-Stopper Fastenings; and I do hereby declare the following to be a sufliciently full, clear, and exact description. thereof as to enable others skilled in the art to make and use the said invention.
This invention relates to the fastenings for bottle-stoppers, and has for its object facility of opening and closing.
The nature of this invention consists in the special construction and combination of parts hereinafter described, and shown in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 shows a front view of a bottle neck and stopper with this invention applied thereto; Fig. 2, a side View thereof; Fig. 3, a rear View thereof; Fig. 4, a top view thereof; Fig. 5, a modification of a part thereof; Fig. 6, the stopper detached in section, and Fig.7 the cap detached.
The same reference-marks indicate like parts in the several figures.
1 represents the neck of a bottle; 2, the shoulder; 3, the lip; 4, the stopper, consisting of vulcanized india-rubber having a plug 5 entering a short-distance into the bottle-neck and a flange 6 resting on the edge of the lip.
7 is the cap of the stopper, having a bottom 8 on the lower side, which fits in a cavity 9 in the stopper. The upper side of the cap is convex, and is provided with projection or stop 10 to one side of the center, and on the edge opposite the stop 10 has a hinge 11 formed on or attached thereto, which may be made in a wire 12, secured around a groove 13 in the stopper-cap, as shown in Figs. 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7, or be formed integrally with the cap, as shown in Fig. 5.
The cap 7 may be made of glass or earthenware, as shown in Fig. 7, or of metal in the form shown in Fig. 5.
14 is a bail bent so as to fit elastically at its central portion over the cap 7, and with the ends bent downwardly and inwardly, so as to form pivots turning in eyes formed in a wire 16, encircling and secured to the bottle-neck 1 under the shoulder 2. Pivotally attached to the lower ends of the bail 14 is a second bail 15, the upper portion of which forms part of the hinge 11 on the edge of the stoppercap 7. The end of the bail 15 extends upwardly a sufficient distance to form a stop 17, against which the bail 14 strikes to turn the stopper on its hinge and release the stopper from the bottle.
When closed, the bail 14, pressing upon the convex portion of the cap 7 and resting against the side of the projection or stop 10, holds the cap 7 and stopper 4 with its rim or flange 6 resting and firmly clamped on the bottle-lip 3. The bail 15 holds the cap 7 so as to prevent it becoming detached and lost, and guides it into position in closing the bottle, which is done by moving the bail over the cap 7 until it rests against the shoulder 10. By moving the bail 14 in the opposite direction it meets stop 17 above the hinge 11, and turning the stopper-cap 7 upward retracts the stopper from the bottle-neck, so as to leave the mouth of the bottle unobstructed for pouring, as shown in the dotted portion of Fig. 2.
Having described the construction and operation of this invention, what I claim is In a bottle-stopper fastening, the combination, with the bail 15, provided with an upwardly-projecting stop and pivoted to the bottle-neck, of a cap pivoted to said bail and provided with an upwardly-proj eating stop at the opposite extremity of the cap from the pivot, and a second bail pivoted to the bottleneck and adapted to operate between said stops and to secure the cap to the bottle, substantially as described and shown.
