WINE-COOLER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 511,209, dated December 19, 1893. Application filed September 4. 1893. Serial No. 484,700. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
7 Be it known that LEDMUND A. PARKER, a citizen of thcUnited States, residing at Meriden, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in WVine-Coolers; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, olear,and exact description of the invention,such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention has for its object to provide a device tor cooling wine and other beverages in bottles which will permit the bottle to be removed from the cooler and replaced as many times as required without danger of the ice falling in at the center and interfering with the replacing of the bottle, the bottle while in the cooler being in contact with the ice, and which furthermore may be so constructed as to permit the bottle to be rotated while in contact with the ice as for example when it is desired to frapp champagne or any other beverage while contained in the bottle.
*With these ends in View I have devised the simple and novel bottle holder 1' or cooling wine which I will now describe referring by numbers and letters to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 is a sectional view illustrating the application of my invention to a form of cooler adapted for a single bottle of cliampagne, the bottle being removed. Fig. 2, shows the bottle in position over the holder, the latter having its telescopic sections closed or collapsed within the cup adapted to receive the holder; the cup being shown in section while the collapsed holder is in elevation; Fig. 3 a section on the line m o: in Fig. 2 looking down; Fig. 4 a sectional view illustrating the application of my invention to an ice box adapt-' ed to hold a number of bottles; Fig. 5 a section on the line y y in Fig. 4. looking down, and Fig. 6 is an enlarged detail view illustrating means for retaining the handle in operative position.
"per ends.
sive I have shown the cooler provided with a handle 2, as resting upon legs 3, and the bottom as provided with a depending cup 4.
The most important feature of my invention consists in the bottle holder which I designate by A and which may or niaynot be made detachable from the cooler itself, both forms being shown in the drawings. This bottle holder is in fact a follower which is held normally at the. raised position by means of a strong spring 5 which bears against the bottom and against the under side of the bottle holder. The bottle holder may be made to consist of a number of sections as shown in Fig. 1 or of a single section as in Fig. 4. Each section, where more than one is used, is provided with a flange 6 at its lower end which engages a flange 7 at the upper end of the section below it thereby preventing the sections from becoming disconnected in use.
8 denotes a web by which the bottle holder or holders are supported. In Figs. l [03 inelusive this web is provided with recesses 9 which are adapted to register with lugs 10 on the inner side of the body. In the multiple form, that is as illustrated in Figs. 4 and 5 flange 6 engages web 8 the same as in the other form. In fact in the other form the flange 7 which is engaged by the flange 6 upon the lower section of the follower is preferably formed upon web 8.
11 denotes rods which extend from web 8 and support a concave flange 12 at their up- 13 is a handle connected to concave flange 12 which in the single bottle form is used for convenience in handling the bottle holder and in attaching it to or detaching it from the body. In this form, in attaching the bottle holder it is passed Within the body, recesses 9 in web 8 registering with lugs 10 on the body. Then the web has passed the lugs on the body the bottle holder is given a partial turn as clearly shown in Fig. 3 to lock it in place within the body.
In the multiple form illustrated in Figs. 4. and 5 web 8 is preferably a water tight diaphragm or bottom upon which the ice rests and the depending cups 4 are preferably provided with drainage pipes so as to permit any water that may drip down into them to pass off readily.
The operation of my improved cooler will be clearly understood from the drawings. In use the ice is placed in the body until it comes up under the concave flange. When it is desired to cool a bottle of champagne the user places the bottle within flange 12 and presses the bottle holder down as shown in Fig. 2 and at the center in Fig. 4. The bottle may beretained in this position by turning handle 13 over the top of the cork as shown in Fig. 4 or it may be held in position as in Fig. 2 by a block 14 carried by a quick threaded screw 15 which passes through a disk 16 itself loosely socketed in the top of handle 2.
17 is a spring catch adapted to be pressed down upon the disk to hold it against rotation when the screw and block are turned down upon the top of the cork as in Fig. 2. I preferably, in the single form place in the center of the top of the follower a pivoted block 18 upon which the bottom of the bottle rests.
Should it be desired to frapp wine or any other beverage in the bottle, block 14: is turned down upon the top of the bottle as in Fig. 2, after which the screw, disk, both blocks and the bottle may be rotated bymeans of ahand piece 19 the bottle remaining in contact with the ice in the body.
Block 14 is preferably made of rubber and is so shaped that it may be used as a temporary stopper after the ordinary cork of a bottle of wine has been removed thus preventing the escape of carbonic acid gas.
In Fig. 6 I have shown handle 13 as retained in an upright position by means of spring 20 one end of which engages a hub 21 upon the handle the other end engaging the head 22 of the pivot upon which the handle turns.
My invention is equally adapted for use in single wine coolers, or in large ice boxes in which it is desired to keep a number of different kinds of wine cool and ready for opening, or in bar room ice boxes in which it is desired to keep different kinds of liquors cool.
It willof course be understood that in either a single or multiple coolerand whether the bottle holder consists of a single section as in Fig. 4, or of a number of telescopic sections as in Fig. 1, whenever a bottle is removed the holder rises up with it through the resiliency of the spring and prevents the ice from falling into the space previously occupied by the bottle. The opening in flange 12 is a trifle smaller than the top of the follower so as to act as a stop for the follower when it rises and to render it impossible for the ice to get into the space intended for the bottle.
Having thus described my invention, I claim- 1. The combination with a body adapted to hold ice and having a depending cup 4, of a spring actuated bottle holderwhich is adapted to be pressed down into the cup when holding a bottle and to be lifted out therefrom by the spring when the bottle is removed so that the holder will occupy the space just occupied by the bottle and prevent the ice from falling in.
2. A bottle holder for wine coolers consisting of a spring actuated follower, a flange 12 against which the follower rests in the raised position and suitable means for retaining the bottle upon the holder when the latter is retracted.
3. A bottle holder for wine coolers consisting of a flange 12 a web 8 and a spring actuated follower carried by said web andadapted when in use to support a bottle and when not in use to engage said flange.
4. A bottle holder for wine coolers consisting of a web 8, rods extending therefrom and supporting a flange 12, a spring actuated follower carried by the web and adapted to engage the flange in the extended position,- and a handle 13 carried by the flange which is adapted to hold a bottle upon the follower when the latter is pressed down.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
EDMUND A. PARKER.
