SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 550,0413, dated November 19, 1,895.
Application nea March 18,1895. semina 542,113. (Nomdei.)
.To all whom t may concern.-
Be it known thatv I, MORGAN J. BEACH, a citizen of -the United States, residing at Detroit, county of Wayne, State of Michigan, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Bottle-Stoppers; and l declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to bottle-Stoppers; and it has for its object an improved form of stopper intended to prevent the fraudulent refilling of bottles from which the contents have once been emptied.
In the drawings, Figure l shows in sectional elevation the neck of a bottle with the stopper contained therein. Fig. 2 is a horizontal cross-section at the line Fig. 3 is ahorizontal cross-section at the line y y, showing the part of the framework below -y y, through which the central guide is supported. Fig. 4E shows in perspective the upper checkvalve. Fig. 5 shows a support upon which a swinging weight is held. Fig. 6 shows the swinging weight. Fig. 7 shows the lower diskvalve. Fig. 8 shows the central support on which the several valves and weights are carried and guided. A indicates the walls ofthe bottle, which are provided at the point where the neck enlarges into the body part of the bottle with a valve-seat a.
B indicates a valve-casing adapted to be inserted within the walls of the bottle-neck and to be held therein by a packing-ring or ring of cement b, which fills the space formed between two annular grooves, one of the grooves being in the neck of the bottle and the other in the outer walls of the valve-casing arranged to be opposed to each other or to register with each other, so as to form an annular openingbetween them. The upper part of the casing B is provided with diaphragms which extend partially across and are arranged in staggered order, so as to present a winding passage-way through which liquid can rapidly run, but through which no instrument can be introduced to tamper with the valves below. Within the case B is a valve-seat C, preferably conical, and adapted tocoact with a conical valve o. At the lower end of the valve-casing Bis a guide, consisting, essentially, of a cross-piece or two crosspieces d d', provided with a central perforation, and through one of the diaphragms D is also a perforation central with respect to the valve-casing.
Through the two perforations, the one in the diaphragm D and the other in the crossbar d, is passed a guide-rod E, made of any suitable material, preferably a small rod of glass, and upon this rod, which projects downward below the casing B, is swung a hangersupport F, from which swings a weighted hanger vGr. The weighted hanger G normally lies across the long axis of the neck of the bottle and is capable of swinging through a slight angle with reference to the axis as the bottle is turned from one position to another. It is also capable of turning with the support vF completely around the axis, so that the weighted part g always drops to that side of the neck of the bottle which is lowest when the bottle is held with the axis of the neck horizontal or inclined sufficient to permit the hanger and its support to turn on the rod E.
The support F, while permitted to turn on the rod E, is prevented from moving lon gitudinally along that rod by means of the two washers f and f', one of which is located at either side of the hanger-support F. The hanger-support F consists, essentially, of a barrel part, from which an arm extends, terminating with a knife edge f2, and the weighted hanger consists, essentially, of a heavy or weighted part g, of about the shape of a half-circle, from which extend two arms g g2, terminating at their ends in hooks which are adapted to engage over the knifefedge f2.
From the weighted side of the hanger G extends aprong g3, which engages with the valve J when the bottle is in an upright position. The valve J is a disk-valve, centrally perforated and thin at its edges, but provided at its middle part with a hub k sufficient in length to prevent its twisting on the rod E. VThe valve J and the check-valve c are free to move IOO along the guide-rod E toward and away from their respective seats. The rod E may be either slightly movable or it may be held against movement.
W'hen the bottle provided with these valves is tipped with its month downward in the way usual in pouring from a bottle, the weighted hanger G drops away from the valve J and permits liquid contained in the bottle to exert its normal pressure and force the Valve J away from its seat. A The liquid also easily presses the oheekwalve c away from the scat and escapes; but if the attempt be made to fill the bottle that has once been emptied the liquid is stopped iirst by the cheek-valve c. If, by shaking or other manipulation, the liquid is forced beyond the check-valve c, it meets with the iurther obstruction of the valve J, and the valve J being light and restrained from free motion by its frictional oontact with the guide-rod E will not readily be displaced by any `shaking or manipulating that can be exerted. The weighted hanger if, which is more free to move than the Valve J, will, in oase any attempt is made to shake the Valve J from its seat, swing to and fro, and because of its greater freedom of movement, and because of its engagement at each oseillation with the val ve J, aid in holdin g the valve J in place.
What I claim isl. In an anti-filling device for bottles, the combination of a guide rod centrally supported with reference to the bottle neck, a disk Valve and its seat closing and openin gat the bottom of the bottle neck, and a swinging hanger adapted to rotate around said central guiding stem and swinging longitudinally with respect thereto to engage the disk valve, substantially as described.
2. In an antifilling device for bottles, the combination of a guide rod centrally supported with reference to the bottle neck, a valve seat and valve, a swinging hanger adapted to rotate around said guide rod and to swinglongitudinally with reference to said guide rod, a prong extending from the han ger and adapted to engage the valve at each oseillationv of the swinging hanger, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I sign this specification in the presence of two witnesses.
MORGAN J. BEACH.
