BOTTLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 579,516, dated March 23, 1897. Application filed September 26, 1896. $erial No. 607,123. (No model.)
To (U whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALBERT L. HOWELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of Baton Rouge, in the parish of Baton Rouge and State of Louisiana, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Bottles and I do hereby 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 appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to an improvement in bottles; and .it consists of certain novel features of construction whereby a bottle can be once filled with a liquid, then sealed at the filling-passage with a non-removable seal Y ing-plug which constitutes a part of the body of the bottle, and the contents of the bottle can be poured out at the mouth of the bottle by withdrawing the cork, and the bottle to be incapable of, practically, being refilled again. Said bottle also may be so constructed as to serve, when desired, as a means by which certain quantities may be poured out of the bottle at separate intervals.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is.
a vertical sectional view of my improved bottle as it appears when filled with liquid. Fig. 2 is a transverse section through the line 0c :r of Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 is a transverse section through the line y y of Fig. 1.
A in the drawings represents my improved bottle, which may be constructed of glass or any other suitable material and made in any suitable shape and size.
B represents the base or bottom of the bottle; G, a measuring bulb or passage; D, a filling-passage; E E, air and liquid passages or ducts; F, the mouth of the bottle, and G the interior chamber of the bottle.
The bottom or base of the bottle is provided with the measuring bulb or passage 0, which communicates with the outside of the bottle by means of the filling-passage D. The measuring bulb or passage 0 communicates through a passage 0 with the interior chamber G of the bottle and with the mouth of the bottle through the liquid and air passages E E. The inner chamber G is closed at its upper end and at all other points except at the opening 0. The bottle is closed at its mouth in the ordinary manner by a cork.
In manufacturing the bottle it would be made in two sections with one-half of the recesses and passages in one-half of the mold and the other one-half in the other, so that when the two sections are brought together complete passages and recesses will be formed.
I have described the recess 0 as a measuring-bulb and shown it globular in form, but I contemplate constructing the bottle without the measuring-bulb C and connecting the interior chamber G and the liquid and air ducts E E with the filling-passage by a passage of approximately the same size in crosssectional area as the said filling-passage and ducts.
In filling the bottle the cork H is first inserted and the bottle placed downward in a filling-rack. A filling-tube of less diameter than the passage D is inserted into the said passage and the liquid allowed to pass through said passage into the bulb or passage 0, and from there through the opening 0 into the interior chamber G of the bottle, and when this chamber is filled the liquid will overflow the chamber and fill the passages E E, the air being forced out by the liquid and escaping out at the filling-passage D around the outside of the filling-tube.
When the bottle is filled, the filling-passage D is hermetically sealed by means of an ordinary cork I and a suitable cement, liquid glass, or other substance J, which will hardenand become a part of the bottle, so that it will be impossible to gain access to the interior of the bottle through this passage D. The walls of the passage may be roughened or corrugated,.so as to form a seat for the sealing material.
When it is desired to empty the bottle of its contents the cork H is extracted and the bottle turned into a horizontal position with the liquid and air d ucts one above the other, so as to allow the liquid to pass down the lower duct E and airenter at the mouth of the bottle and pass along the upper duct or passage E into the bulb or passage 0. This will allow only as much liquid as is in the measuring bulb O and in the duct E E to pass out at the mouth of the bottle and will prevent any more liquid passing to the measuring-bulb from the interior chamber of the bottle until the bottle is again returned to a vertical position, as the entering air will press against the liquid in the interior of the bottle at the opening 0. From this it will be seen that only a certain amount of liquid can be poured from the bottle at a time, and that this amount can be predetermined by the size of the bulb or passage 0.
What I claim as my invention is 1. A bottle comprising a hollow body portion which is provided with a neck having an open mouth, and a bottom or base portion provided with a filling-passage which communicates with the interior of the bottle, the mouth and filling-passage being connected by an air and liquid passage, substantially as described.
2. Abottle provided with a measuring-bulb at its bottom which communicates with the atmosphere on the outside of the bottle, and liquid and air escape passages which communicate with the bulb and mouth of the bottle,
substantially as described.
3. A bottle comprising a hollow body portion which is provided with a neck having an open mouth, and a' bottom or base portion provided with a measuring-bulb and a fillingpassage which extends from the bulb to the outside of the bottle, the bulb and mouth ofthe bottle being connected by a passage, and the bulb also communicating with the interior chamber of the bottle, which chamber is closed at its upper end, substantially as described.
4. A bottle comprising a hollow body portion which is provided with a neck having an open mouth, and a bottom or base portion provided with a measuring-bulb and a fillingpassage which extends from the bulb to the outside of the bottle, the bulb and mouth of the bottle being connected by a passage, and the bulb also communicating with the interior chamber of the bottle, which chamber is closed at its upper end, and a sealing-plug in the filling-passage which constitutes a part of the body of the bottle, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I hereunto affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
