UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
AUGUSTUS M. HERRING, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
ANTI-DRIP NOSE FOR PITCHERS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 457,716, dated August 11, 1891.
Application filed January 8, 1891. Serial Nb. 377,109- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, AUGUSTUS M. HERRING, of New York city, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Anti-Drip Nose for Pitchers and other Vessels, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the annexed drawir gs, forming a part thereof, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of a pitcher to which my improvement is applied. Fig. '2 is a longitudinal section of the pitcher-nose. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the same. Fig. 4: is a plan view of a modified form of pitcher-nose, and Fig. 5 is an end view of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
When a liquid is poured from a pitcher having an ordinary rounded nose, one or more drops of the liquid adhere to the nose after the pouring ceases, and these drops either run down along the sideof the pitcher under the nose or drop directly from the nose to the table or other surface below the pitcher. To avoid this dripping from the pitcher-nose is the object of my invention.
' downwardly-curved portion of the pitchera thus formed extends toward the highest portion of the bottom of the nose A.
When a liquid is poured from a pitcher provided with my improvement, the greater bulk of the liquid is discharged, after the manner of the ordinary pitcher-nose,'but the last. remaining drops are stretched in a film across the angular notch, and according to the wellknown law of the surfacetension of liquids the film tends to contract, and in so doing follows the edges of the angular notch to the apex of the angle, whence itflows back into the pitcher.
In the form shown in Figs. 4: and 5 the bottom of the pitcher-nose is made angular to adapt it to viscid liquids, the angular form of the nose being more effective in returning the last drops of the liquidto the pitcher.
M y improvement is applicable to vessels of pottery or porcelain, to metallic vessels, to chemists glassware, and to bottles, jugs, and cans designed to hold liquids.
Having thus described my invention, 1-
claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. An anti-drip nose for pitchers and other vessels, the same being provided with an angular notch in the end thereof, with the angle extending toward the body of the pitcher or vessel and opening out laterally, substantially as specified.
2. An anti-drip nose for pitchers and other vessels, the same being provided With an angular notch in the end thereof, opening out laterally, with the apex of the angle extending toward the body of the pitcher or vessel and with the extremities of the nose at opposite sides of the notch turned outwardly, substantially as specified.
A. M. HERRING.
