No. 568,105. Patented; Apr. 14,1896.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE. v
GEORGE A. PRESTON, OF DUNDEE LAKE,
THIRD TO CHARLES M. KING,
BOTTLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 558,105, dated April 14, 1896.-
Application filed November 13, 1895. Serial No. 568,852. (No modelfl To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORGE A. PRESTON, of- Dundee Lake, Saddle River township, Bergen county, New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bottles, of which the following is a specification.
The object of m invention is to provide a bottle and a stopper therefor so constructed that when the contents are placed in the bot- To tle and the stopper is placed in the neck of the bottle it will be necessary to break oft'the head of the bottle in order to remove the stopper. The object in constructing such a bottle is to prevent as far as possible the practice of r 5 fraudulently deceiving the public by refilling old bottles-that have been emptied of their original contents with contents of an inferior quality. As it is alleged that this deceit is frequently practiced by unscrupulous persons and the public are deceived by the appear-.
anee of the bottles and the labels, and the manufacturers of the genuine articles being alsothe losers, the necessity of having a bottle that cannot be used the second time without 2 5 detection is a want which my invention is intended to supply.
The invention consists of a bottle and stopper constructed as shown in the accompanyin g drawings, and may be made of glass,
0 earthenware, a composition, or an v othersuitable material or substance.
In the accompanying drawings, in which similar letters of reference indicate like parts,
Figure 1 is a vertical sectional viewof my 3 5 bottle and stopper, showing the position of the lower portion of the stopper when the bottle is filled. Fig. 2 is an enlarged viewof stopper. Fig. 3 represents a washer located in the neck of the bottle beneath the lower 40 end of the stopper; and Fig. 4 is avertica l sectional view of partof bottle and stopper,
the head of the stopper being broken off.-
In the drawings, A represents the bottle, and-B the stopper, and L a washer.
C 'is the head. of the bottle.
K is the neck of the bottle.-
The bottle is made thicker at the neck K than at; any other portion, for the purpose of strength, and the head 0 is secured to the neck K, so as to have at the-joint of the neck remaining in the'bottle is made of and'the head a thin portion 1), extending all around where the neck and head. are connected. Around the insideof the neck andv head is provided a screw thread or threadsin any desired number, and the upperinsidc portion of the neck 18 made to project inwardly,-
so as to form a shoulder or seat for the washer L and the bottom of the stopper B.
I prefer to make the washer L of cork; but any other suitable material may be used..
The stopper liconsi'sts of the upper portion or head having a neck H, much smaller in diameter than' the head and the lower portion F, which is threaded like a'screw and is adapted to be screwed into the interior threaded 6 portionof the head and neck of the bottle.
The washer L is lowered into the neck of the bottle until it rests on the shohlder S.
The stopper B, like the bottle A, may be made of glass, earthenware, or any other suitable material or substance.
My bottle is usedin the following manner in order to secure and accomplish the objects and purposes above set forth: The contents, whether consisting of liquids, powders, pills, &c., having been placedthcrein in the quantities desired, thc washer L is lowered into the neck of the bottle until it rests upon the inwardly=projecting portion or shoulder S. The stopper i3 is screwed into the head and neck of the bottle until the bot-tent J of the stopper restsupon the washer L. The head of the stopper B is then broken off at the neck orsniall portionll of the stopper. The head of the bottle may then be filled with wax or any other suitable substance above the portion of the stopper then remaining in the bot-- le, and the head and'neck may thc'nbc covered with a capof any suitable material to protect the bottle and to prevent the headG 0 from being broken off in moving or transportation.
It is obvious that if the portion of stopper glass or earthenware or any similar substance it will 3 be impossible to unscrew it and remove it from the head and neck of the bottle and that the only Way to remove-it is by breaking off the head 0 from the bottle.
The head 0 is so connected with the neck K of the bottle as to leave the thin connect,
ing portion D, so that the head 0 may be stopper therein, he knows that the contents tion applies to bottles or by those skilled in the manufacture of bottles,
'of filling, packing, and transportation until purchases a bottle of liquor or other mereasiiy broken off at the part D, when the stepi 1. A. vessel of any suitable size, shape or per or the thread portion of the stopper remaining inthe bottle maybe readily removed.
The neck K of the bottle is made much thicker than the other portion of the bottle, i so that it may not be fractured in breaking elf the head 0. Any suitable cork may then be inserted in the neck of the bottle.
When the head of the bottle is broken away from the neck, owing to the construction of the bottle, which will be readily understood K andthe connecting portion between the head and the neck thinner and weaker in constrnction than either the head or neck, so that the head of the bottle may be broken oit the interior of the head being provided engage the screw-threaded portion of a stopper, in combination with a stopper provided with a lower screw-threaded portion F, ahead and a neck portion II of much smaller dimension the neck being made weak so that the head portion may be broken oif at the neck, leavingthc lower screw-threaded portion 1" in thehead of the bottle, all constructed-substantially as shownanddescribed and for the purpose specified.
2. In a bottle the head C and the neck K connected by a weaker port-ion I), at which the head of the bottle may leaving a complete provided on the inside with a screw-tln-ead, the neck being provided on the inside with a projection or shoulder S, in combination with the washer L and a stopper B having ahead and weak neck portion II and provided with a lower screw-threadedportion h, adapt ed to screw into the head of the bottle and rest upon the washer L and the shoulder S, the neck of the stopper being weakly constructed so that the head of the stopper may be broken 01f, constructed substantially as shown and described and for the pnrposesspeeiiied.
there will be a clean even breakand the bottle will be as useful as. any completebottle.
By the use of the washer L and by the perfeet fit of the screw-threads Fof the stopper and the screw-threads Ein the head of the bottle and the method of sealing the bottle the contents will be preserved from the time contents are to be: used, when an ordinary cork or stepper maybe used in'the-neck' K.
By the adoption of rny improved bottle I claim that the practice of fraud or deceit will be reduced to a JIiiIliHilllU,-2LS it will be impossible to remove the threaded portion F of the stopper B without breaking off the head 0 otthe bottle. Consequently it a person ehandi'se and findsthe bottle intact, with the head 0 on and the threaded portion F of the are genuine.
