CURTIS N. WILOOX, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
COVER FOR MILK-JARS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 501,176, dated July 11, 1893.
Application filed February 4, 1893- Serial No. 46L09- (N modem To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that l, CURTIS N. \VILCOX, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Covers for Milk-Jars, of which. the following is a specification, reference being had to the drawings accompanying and forming a part of the same.
It is the usual custom at the present time in large cities to deliver milk in bottles or jars provided with some form of cover that maybe readily removed, the devices now used for this purpose being usually tin plates pivotally secured to a wire yoke the ends of which are connected to the jar neck by means of some form of fastening that clamps the plate down over the end of the neck to close the jar, and also permits its ready removal.
My present invention is concern ed only with the aforesaid plate and wire yoke, without reference to any other devices employed in connection with them for securing them to the jar or permitting their use or operation for closing the jar, and with an improved form of plate whereby it may be more easily and cheaply made and associated with the said wire or yoke.
My invention consists in a plate or cover of sheet metal provided with perforated ears, at opposite edges, and a wire yoke extending across said plate or cover, and having depending portions for securing said cover or plate to a bottle or jar, the said wire being passed through the perforated ears and secured to the plate or cover by said ears which are bent down upon the upper surface of the plate and over the wire thereon. The said plate is preferably circular and of the proper diameter to form a cover for the jar, with the two cars diametrically opposite. The plates are preferably to be stamped out of sheet metal, and by the same or subsequent operations to be corrugated in the usual manner. After being thus formed one of the ears is bent up at right angles, and the wire is passed through it and then through the opposite ear. The ears are then bent over and pressed down over the wire and against the plate, and the combined plate and yoke then associated with the proper fastening mechanism.
- The improvement above described differs from the means heretofore employed for a like purpose, in this, that in the latter the plate has usually been connected with the wire by one or more independent pieces which require to be soldered or otherwise secured to the plate over the wire. But by my plan the plate and fastening devices are made at one operation of a single piece of metal and no soldering is required.
This improvement is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 represents a plan of the cover or plate. Fig. 2 is a section of a plate formed with c0rrugations,and Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the complete device.
A plate A is punched out from sheet metal with ears B containing perforations C. At the same or by a subsequent operation one or more corrugations D is formed in the plate. One of the earsB is then bent up at right angles and the yoke F is passed through the same and its end then passed through the opposite perforated ear. ,The ears B are then bent down, as shown in Fig. 3, to retain the yoke F in position, and to secure it to the plate. The yoke F constitutes the means by which the plate is clamped to the opening of the jar, and may form part of any ordinary fastening device, such for instance as that illustrated in the drawings.
Having now described my invention, what I claim is- 1. The combination in a bottle or jar-closin g device with a cover or plate of sheet metal provided with perforated ears at opposite edges, of a wire or yoke extending across said plate or cover and having depending portions for securing said cover to the bottle or jar, the said wire being passed through the perforated ears and secured to the plate by said ears, which are bent down upon the upper surface of the plate and over the wire thereon.
2. The combination with the wire yoke F, a sheet metal plate or cover having diametrically opposite perforated ears through which the wire passes, said ears being bent down upon the upper surface of the plate and over that portion of the wire yoke extending across the same, of means for securing the ends of the yoke and a bottle or jar to which the same are attached.
