SPECIFICATION forming partof Iletters Patent No. 527,161, dated October 9, 1894. hpplicaticn filed 1...... e, 1894. sash No. 495,955. (N0 M1.)
It further relates to a suitable sealingde;
suitable formation,'and 2 denotes the neck thereof, and 2 the rim upon the neck;A, the stopper as a whole, whichflis provided both vice by means of which said stopper is retained in the neck of the bottle. 7
It is the object in my present invention to provide a stopper which will be cheap, dura"- bio and readily seated within the neck of; a bottle; also to produce a stopper which does not necessitate the destruction of the bottle in order to remove the stopper, and further to provide for said stopper a seal through which the contents of the bottle may be emptied. without disturbing or breaking the.seal,and at the same time not allowing there moval of the stopper.
In order that those skilled in the art to which this invention appertains may fully. understand its. construction and method of operation, I will describe the same in detail, reference being had to the accompanying drawings which form'a part of this specification,'and in which- Figure 1, shows a perspective view of the seal. Fig. 2, is a perspective view of the neck of a bottle and having my novel stopper placed therein. Fig. 3, is a view similar to Fig. 2 showing the seal upon the top of the bottle neck, and a cork placed within the stopper. Fig. 4, is a perspective view similar to Fig. 3, the only difference being that in Fig. 4. I have illustrated a covering upon the cork which may be of tin-foil, paper or the like. Fig. 5, is a central section of a bottle having my improved stopper placed therein, a cork within the stopper, a seal placed upon the stopper, and upon the neck of the bottle. Fig. 6 is a cross section on line a:a; of Fig. 5, showing the block in plan.
Upon the accompanying drawings the same numerals and letters of reference denote like 'upon it. I I I v I after said seal has been broken and removed.
4 which serves to form a tight fit between the parts upon the several figures.
This invention is designed to be used in connection with any ordinary bottle which has a neck of sufficient length, and a rim.55 around its top, and does not necessarily require any special formation. In this invention it will be noticed that the stopper is forced into the neck of the bottle and so'held by friction, after which the seal may be placed The stopper can only be withdrawn 1 indicates a bottle which may be'of' any upon its upper and lower periphery with a fectly tight withinthe neck, both at its upper and lower extremity, the lower one serving to prevent the liquid from leaking out of the bottle, and the top one serving to prevent the 'drippings from soaking back into the neck at such times when a portion of the contents -may be poured from'the bottle, and the bottle again set upon its end. I The stopper Ai's simply constructed, and consists first of a body portion 5,having a reduced top 6, and an external annular groove 7 near its top. This annular groove is for the purpose of retaining thecork 3, and serves to make the stopper fit'perfe'ctly tight at the top of the neck. The outlet Sin the uppe end of the body 5 is somewhat smaller in cir umference than that of the main portion, as ill clearly be seen with reference to Fig. 5 of the drawings. The outlet is for the passage fluid from the bottl'eand in shipment would be closed with a cock 9. To the lower exo treniity of this body is suitably attached a seat 10 to which I attach aloop 11. Around said seat and loop is placed the cork packing neck of the bottle and the lower extremity of 5 the stopper.
.Within the cylindrical body 5 I place a block 12 having lugs 13 .upon its sides and.
extending upwardly from the main portion thereof. These lugs upon the sides serve to en- I oo' gage the interior of the cylindrical body, thus retaining the block firmly in its proper position therein. Further, by reason of these lugs extended from the block, there are formed between said block and body fluid-passages 13?, for the purpose of allowing the free passage of the fluid from the valveout through side up, said ball will fall into the seat 14:, al'.
lowing the valve 16 to drop awayfrom its seat', thus permitting the free passage of the fluid from the bottle out through the passages 13".
The valve 16 is provided with guides 17, formed preferably of two pieces of U-shaped wire, the ends of which are secured within the valve. A valve constructed in this manner allows the free flow of the fluid from the bottle and practically unobstructed. The valve further operates quickly and more readily than a great many others which have been made, and is particularly practicable in stoppers of this class. In this device I have also shown a ball 18, which is similar to the one I have shown in another application filed October 27, 1893, Serial No. 489,264, and is for the purpose of and serves to insure against the operation of the valve in case the latter should refuse to open and operate. In this construction of stopper I have shown the loops 11, which retain the ball, as attached to the stopper and independent of the bottle neck which is in every way practical and allows the free insertion and extraction of the stopper.
As before stated this stopper is capable of being drawn out of the neck of the bottle at will by the removal of the seal, and as designed is intended to be drawn out only by the bottler, or the manufacturer whose goods the bottle may contain. In order to accomplish this result I have provided the novel means of attaching a seal B over a portion of the end of the stopper, and also over the end of the neck of the bottle.
The seal 13 is formed of a single piece of sheet metal of any suitable thickness, but preferably about one sixteenth. of an inch; and is formed with a central opening 19 and an annular downward projecting flange 20, which may be of any suitable length, but necessarily of a length sufficient to be turned under the rim 2 of the neck of the bottle, as shown in Fig. 5. The manner of attaching this seal will best be understood with reference to Figs. 1, 2 and 3 of the drawings; Fig. 1 showing the seal B. Fig. 2, shows the bottle neck, its rim, and the stopper within said neck. The seal as illustrated in Fig. 1, would be placed upon the neck and stopper, as shown in Fig. 2. The opening 19 of said seal is of a diameter about equal to the outside diameter of the'reduced top 6 of the stopper, so as to allow the extension of said stopper to freely extend through said seal B, as shown.
After. the seal has been placed upon the bottle andstopper, it would be turned under the before mentioned rim 2 by means of a suitable tool. This operation will securely attach the seal to the neck of the bottle, at the same time prevent'the stopper from being drawn from the bottle. I
In connection with this stopper and seal, I use a suitable eorking for the bottle which maybe attached to the extension in any desired manner. In the accompanying drawings however, I have shown simply a cork 9 which is forced into the outlet 8 and retains the liquid withinsthe bottle until used. If
desired, in connection with this device the bottler may use a covering for the stopper and extension, as shown in Figs. 4.- and 5,-
which would be made of any suitable flexible material, such for instance as tin-foil, sheepskin or the. like and might contain the bottlers special trade-mark or design.
It is of course understood that bottlers placing bottles of this class upon the market expect them to be returned for refilling. To do this with this particular bottle it would simply be necessary to destroy and detach the seal, thus allowing the stopper to be withdrawn, after which the bottle could be again filled, the old stopper placed back into the bottle and a new seal for the stopper placed thereon.
Having thus described my invention, I claima 1. Ina bottle stopper of the class described, the combination with a cylindrical body provided with valve mechanism to prevent the refilling of a bottle, of an extension as shown formed integral with said body and whose outer diameter above the top of the bottle is less than that of the lower portion thereof, a flat shoulder formed upon the body flush with the top of the bottle neck, a thin metallic seal having a flat top, an opening therethrough and a downwardly projecting flange to be turned in under the rim of the neck of the bottle.
2. The combination in a bottle-stopper, of the class described, of a cylindrical body having a reduced. top and an opening therethrough, a thin metallic seal having an opening in its center adapted to fit around the extension and to be turned under the rim of the neck of a bottle, packing rings around the upper and lower portion of the body, a pair of loops 11 attached to the body and independent of the bottle for the purpose of retaining a ball.
3. In abottle-stop per of the class described, the combination with a cylindrical body having a reduced central opening in the top thereof, of a block within said body provided with lugs upon its sides forming fluid-passages between the block and body, a ball and valve arranged below the block and within the body, the U-shaped wire guides attached to the valve to permit .of its free operation.
4. In a bottle-stopper, the combination with IIO a seal of the-class describedyof a cylindricaltion, thewh'ole arranged for the-purposesde 10 body adapted to fit within the neck-ofa, bottle and having a reduced end projecting up above the top of the bottle andthrough the seal, packing rings around the top and bottom of the body, a pair of loops attachedto the lower end of the body, a, block haying fiuid'passages between it and the body, a ball and valve to allow the fluid to pass in one direcscribed.
