COMBINED SALT AND PEPPER BOX.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 549,568, dated November 12, 1895. Application filed March 2'7, 1895. Serial No. 643,373. (No model.)
To aZl whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, JAMES C. HENDERSON, of Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented. certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Salt and Pepper Box and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon,which form part of this specification. I
This invention relates to certain improvements in condiment-holders.
The object of the invention is to provide an improved form and construction of condiment-holder having two separate longitudinal compartments, a single cap covering both, having differently-sized holes into each compartment, and a rotary cover to close either set of openings While the other set is open.
The invention consists in certain novel features of construction, and in combinations and arrangements of parts, more fully and particularly described hereinafter.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective of the salt and pepper holder, showing the holes to the salt-compartment exposed. Fig. 2 is a side elevation, partly in section, the holes from the pepper-compartment being exposed. Fig. 3 is a top plan .of the perforated top. Fig. 4 is a detail top plan of the turn-cap arranged to close or open exit from either compartment.
I11 the drawings, a is the holder, of any deusirable shape or configuration, with the top mouth usually externally screw threaded. (See 1).) This holder can beformed of glass or any suitable metal or other material and can be highly ornamented and rendered an exceedingly beautiful article.
c is a central longitudinal division arranged in the holder and dividing theinterior thereof into two separate longitudinal compartments, d for the salt, and c for the pepper. This partition passes up in the neck, so that its upper edge is flush with the top edge of the mouth of the bottle or holder.
In order to keep the salt pulverized and screw-threaded lower portion screwing onto the mouth of the bottle and having the fiat upper surface provided with the small holes g into the upper end of the pepper-compartment and its opposite half formed with the larger holes g into the salt-compartment.
h is the turn-cap, having the downturned edge 72/, surrounding and turning on the upper end of the top g.
c is the central pivot on which the cap concentrically turns and which confines the turncap on the top, and this pivot is preferably countersunk at the lower end. This turn-cap is cut out on one side to leave an opening of such size as to expose one set of holes at a time, while the imperforate part of the cap closes the other set of holes.
j is a stop secured on the upper surface of the bottle-top within said cap-opening, so as to permit said cap to rotate one-half way around in either direction and thus cause the imperforate portion to exactly cover either set of openings, While the other set is open.
This article can be quickly and easily operated and yet is exceedingly simple, economical, and durable in construction and composed of a minimum number of parts.
The article is one of great utility and fills a long-felt want.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is-- The receptacle having the exteriorly threaded neck, the internal longitudinal partition having spurs on one side and about flush with the mouth of the receptacle, the cover 9 screwing on the neck of the receptacle and having an annular enlargement around its upper edge and a flat upper surface having perforations on both sides of the partition, the turn-cap having down turned my own I affix my signature in presence of edge 71, around said annular en1argement,the two Witnesses.
central pivot 1', said cap havin the cut out q t 1 T 1 t 7 portion to expose either half of the perfora- JAMhS HE} DILRSOX 5 tions of the cover, and the stop j, suhstan- \Vitnesses:
tially as described. 0. M. \VERLE,
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as E. CALLAN DUFFY.
