WILLIAM E. S. CRANE, OF BAYONNE, NEYV JERSEY.
CAN-HOLDER FOR OONDENSED-MlLK CANS, 84,6.
SPEGIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 593,044, dated November 2, 1897. Application filed September 25, 1893. Renewed September 25, 1837. Serial No. 653,028. (llo model.)
To ctZZ whom it may concern;
Be it known that I, WILLIAM E. S. CRANE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bayonne, in the county of Hudson and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Can Holders for Condensed- Milk Cans, (be. 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, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, and to letters of reference marked thereon, which forms a part of this specification.
The objects of this invention are to provide acover for cans of condensed milk which will admit of a quick insertion and removal of the can, to reduce the cost of construction, to enable the can to be firmly and automatically fastened within the cover, and when so fastened to enable it to be readily opened for use or closed to prevent flies, &c., getting access to the milk, and to secure other advantages and results, some of which will be referred to in connection with the description of the operating parts.
The invention consists in the improved milk-can cover for dining-tables and in the arrangements and combinations of parts, all substantially as will be hereinafter set forth, and finally embraced in the clauses of the claim.
Referring to the drawing, which is a central vertical section of the improved cover, a indicates a bottomless body of a diameter horizontally somewhat larger than that of the can contained or to be contained therein..
the housewife or person setting the table Th e upper part of the body is more contracted and provides bearings a for the lid 6, said bearings being continuous around the upper mouth c so as to receive the downward flange b of the lid and form a close joint therewith. Said lid Z) closes said upper mouth and protects the open can or the contents thereof from insects, dirt, &c., or from rapid evaporation of the liquid in said contents. The lid is preferably provided with a handle 0, and the body, at the sides thereof, is also provided with handles cl CZ, which serve in passing the milk from one part of the table to another, the handles being comparatively large and oppositely disposed to facilitate the passing operation.
To the interior side walls of the body I secure can-holding springs e 6, between which the can is grasped and firmly held. Said springs are preferably fixed to the said interior walls at the lower flaring ends of the body, as at f, by solder, rivets, or other suitable means, and at their upper ends are free to slide on said interior walls when the springs are flexed by the pressure of the can. They are centrally bowed, so as to project into the chamber Within the body and receive the peripheral surfaces of the can when the latter is pressed into place, the bows forming inclines corresponding with or continuing the inclines formed bythe outwardly-flaringbody, no shoulders being formed such as would obstruct the smooth and easy movement of the can into holding relation to the body. The upper free ends of the springs are concealed within the body by the inwardly-bent scraping-flange or stop a which flange or stop thus serves the purpose of a curtain in its relation to said spring.
Ordinarily the springs hold the can in place by friction alone, but they may be made to hold the can more positively by roughening' the faces of the springs.
Above the upwardly-projecting peripheral bearing for the lid-flange the body of the cover is bent inward, forming a stop-flange a for the can and scraper for the viscid milk, which flange is turned downward to direct the milk drippings or s'orapin gs back into the can.
The lid is preferably recessed or perforated, as at '5, to provide for the outward extension of the spoon-handle from the can, as will be understood.
In operating the device the cover may be simply pressed down over the can after cutting out the top of the can in the ordinary manner, when the said can enters into holding orifixed relation to the holder or cover; so that the two may be moved from place to s place together.-
Access to the milk or the contents of the can is obtained by removing the lid.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim as new is 1. The improved condensed milk-oan cover;: for table use herein described comprising a' flaring sheet-metal body a, open both top and" bottom, and having handles cl, .at" thesides, the upper end of the body projecting up above said handles and forming a continuous or un broken peripheral bearing for a cver-fiange,
and having its upper :edge'bent' inward andl forming avcurtain and stop projection, bowed;
springs fastened at theirloweraends i withini said body: andvattheir free upper endstermi-i hating beneathsaid curtain and pressing;
against the inner .wall of said-body, and a lid;
- closi-ngihe upper opening-andadapted to conceal the openen'd of the milk-can, thesaid? lid'being provided with a depending flange; to fit the peripheraljbearings of the body, all; combined substantially as set forth. 1
2. The improved condensed-milk-can coverjf herein described, comprising'the body a,open*l topuandbottom, the top being provided with aniinwardly and downwardly bentistop and scraping flange a ,.a lid for closing the top opening and bowed. springs fastened on the interior of the body and adapted to hold the can ,within said body by frictional engage-r ment against the sides of said can, said parts being combined, substantially as set forth.
3. The improved condensed-milk-can cover, comprising a flaring and handled body, open top and bottom andat the top providing an inwardly-.extendingscrapingrflange and a lid and bowed springs entirely concealed Within said body, thed'lowerends being fastened against the inner walls at the lower flaring 7 end ofthe body and the upper ends lying at the upper endof said bodyconcealed beneath said flange and-sliding on the'inner walls of "the body when the bowed springis flexed by the pressureof the inserted can. i
"In testimony-that 'I-olaim the'foregoingl WILLIAM s. ORA-NE.
