UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
MAX BEUST, OF NEIV ALBANY, INDIANA.
COMBINED CORK AND CORKSCREW.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 476,777, dated June 14, 1892.
Application filed November 14, 1890. Serial No. 371,424. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it HMLZ/ concern.-
Be it known that I, MAX BEUsT, a citizen of the United States, residing in New Albany, Floyd county, State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Cork and Corkscrew, of which the following is a specification.
My invention is a corkscrew constructed as fully set forth hereinafter and as illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is an exterior view of the article constructed with a detachable screw. Fig. 2 is apart sectional view of the construction shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a sectional view showing a modification.
' The stem a of the device may be provided with the usual cross-handle b, as shown. The said stem terminates, as usual, in a screw 0, upon which, between the screw and the handle, is secured a stopper (1, which may be of cork, rubber, or other suitable material and which is preferably confined between disks 6 As thus constructed the article may be used like an ordinary corkscrew for withdrawing the usual cork g of a bottle h, after which the cork g may be detached from the screw, and the article may be applied with its stopper (Z to the bottle to serve as a temporary detachable stopper therefor until the contents are exhausted.
By confining the stopper between disks or flanges c f I am enabled to increase the pressure that may be applied to force the stopper into the bottle or to withdraw it therefrom without injuring the stopper, the preservation of the latter being important, inasmuch as the same stopper will be used for along time and with numerous bottles.
\Vhere the bottles contain material which is likely to act injuriously upon the material of which the screw is composed, thelatter may be plated, or preferably may be detachable from the stem, that it can be removed after the cork g is withdrawn. Different means of connecting the screw to the stem may be employed. Thus, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the terminal portion of the stem below the stopper d is provided with two side lugs h h, with which engage hooks 2' upon the forked end of the screw 0. This permits the screw to be turned to force it into the cork g and to be drawn outward with the cork, while affording a ready means for disconnecting the screw portion from the stem portion of the article. In the construction shown in Fig. 3 the shank is hollow to receive the stem n of the screw, which is secured to the shank by the transverse detachable pin m.
Any metal portion below the stopper d should be plated to protectthe same from the action of the contents of the bottle when the article is provided with a detachable screw for use with bottles containing fluids liable to act upon the metal.
WVithout limiting myself to the precise construction shown, I clai1n 1. The combination of astem provided with a handle and a stopper and having lugs h at its end, a screw 0, having a fork, and hooks i to engage the lugs h, substantially as described. v
2. The combination, in a corkscrew, of a stem provided with a handle and with a stopper connected thereto, and a screw secured detachably to the stem, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
MAX BEUST.
