UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
DANIEL OKANE, OF CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS.
BOTTLE-STOPPER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 460,486, dated September 29, 1891.
Application filed February 6, 1891. Serial No. 380,527. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, DANIEL OKANE, a subject of Her Majesty the Queen of Great Britain, and a resident of the city of Cambridge, in the county of Middlesex and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bottle-Stoppers, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The present invention relates to the improvements in bottle-stoppers, the object being the provision of devices for the purpose indicated which are most simple, economical, and practical; and the invention consists in the construction and arrangement of parts, in combination with a bottle having its mouth of peculiar form, all substantially as will hereinafter more fully appear, and be set forth in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, and in which the present improved bottle-stopper is illustrated, Figure 1 is a side view of the upper portion of a bottle, showing the stopper in place thereon. Fig. 2 is a central vertical section of the same. Fig. 3 is a plan view.
In the drawings, as constituting a part of the present improved stopper device, are shown a wire bail a, a pair of wire arms b b, secured on the neck of the bottle, which arms constitute supports for the extremities of the bail and from which the bail swings, and a wire lever d, having such an arrangement with the first-named parts that on being swung in one direction the bail is permitted to rise and also to swing across the axis of the bottle, while on the said lever being swung in the other direction the bail is drawn down upon or toward the top of the bottle.
A represents the stopper, having by the eye-lug f thereon a pivotal engagement with the intermediate portion of the bail. The devices as above described in a general wayinvolve no particular invention, the same being a well-known form of bottle-stopper; but the parts or features which constitute the invention will be now particularly described.
The mouth of the bottle is internally and an nularly rabbeted, whereby the ledge or rest g is formed a short distance below the extreme upper end The stopper A consists of the permanent metallic disk h, having the serrated under portion, and of a diameter the same or about the same as that of the orifice above the said ledge g and the section or thickness 3' of cork or other compressible material. The stoppered bottles at the time of production are to. be equipped with the wire contrivance and eye-lug provided with the disk h, the cork-sections j being newly supplied at the times of making the respective closures of the bottles at the various refillings thereof. The said cork-sections j are as supplied and before being used to havea thickness somewhat greater than the height of the rabbet in the bottle-mouth, so that as the disk is forced to its lower limit the said cork-section will undergo such an amount of compression as will insure the most effectual stopping up and packing of the bottle-mouth. The serrations in the under side of the disk n insure in the operation of the stopper a bite or taking of the disk upon the duly-adj usted cork-section and properly constrains same for its true forcing and entrance into the bottle-mouth.
Having now described my invention,what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s
In a bottle-stopper, the combination, with a bottle having its mouth formed with the rabbet and the ledge g at the base thereof and the bail and supporting and operating devices therefor, substantially as described, of the stopper consisting of the disk h, having the eye-lug f, whereby it is permanently secured on the intermediate portion of the bail, and provided on the under side with the serration and the independent or removable section of cork or other compressible material, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
DANIEL OKANE.
