' UNITED STATES PATENT O FICE.
GEORGE H. W'OODWARD, OF BELMONT, NEW HAMPSHIRE, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO F. R. WOODWARD, OF HILL, NEW HAMPSHIRE.
DOSE-MEASURER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 599,674, dated February 22, 1898.
Application filed December 31 1896. Serial No. 617,551. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORGE I-LWOODWARD, of Belmont, county of Belknap, State of New Hampshire, have invented an Improvement in Dose-Measurers, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, like letters on the drawings representing like parts.
This invention has for its object the production of a cheap and effective device appli cable to medicine or other bottles of various sizes,whereby a given quantity of the contents of the bottle may be conveniently measured out without recourse to spoons, glasses, &c.
Figure 1, in side elevation, represents the neck and upper part of a bottle upright with my invention applied thereto. Fig. 2 is a similar view,the bottle being tipped, however, to deliver a portion of its contents. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the measuring-receptacle detached; and Fig. 4 is a sectional view of the receptacle and holder on the line x m,
Fig. 2.
A flexible band a, of tin or other suitable metal, is held snugly about the neck B of the bottle by a suitable thumb or other clamping screw a, extended through threaded openings a in the ears a of theband, two or more holes a being provided for different sizes of bottles.
A radial'extension a on the band supports a preferably square-headed bolt b, which is extended through a diagonal slot 0 in an ear 0 extended laterally from at or near the upper end of the holder 0, the latter preferably being made of thin sheet metal and shown as cylindrical and closed at its lower end.
The holder is slotted longitudinally on opposite sides at o through which the graduations on the measure or receptacle d, retained in the holder, may be seen, said measure being made of glass or thin porcelain and provided with a lip d for pouring.
The slot 0 is reduced in width at each end, as at 0 c and shaped to receive the bolt 1) snugly, while between its ends the slot is enlarged sufficiently to permit rotation of the ear e on the bolt.
When the bottle is upright and not in use,
the bolt enters the end a of the slot in the ear of the holder 0, preventing the latter from swinging, the weight of the holder and measure retaining them upright, as in Fig. 1.
As the bottle is tipped to pour the bolt 12 turns and will slip out of the end 0 of the slot and enter the other end 0 as shown in Fig. 2, bringing the measure or receptacle 01 into position to receive a portion of the contents of the bottle. After pouring the requisite quantity the bottle is turned up and the holder will resume its upright position (shown in. Fig. 1) and the measure d can be lifted out and its contents removed.
The device may be applied to any bottle and is easy and convenient to operate, doing away entirely with spoons, glasses, &c., and is always at hand when needed.
I am aware of United States Patents Nos. 552,780 and 575,033 and do not claim anything therein shown, inasmuch as my invention comprises a dose-measurer which is secured to a bottle-neck, so as to hang by gravity in the desired position, said dose-measurer comprising a sort of thimble or pocket-holder, as before described, which contains a removable receptacle or measuring-glass, (although it may be other material than glass,) whereas the first-mentioned patent comprises a spoon hinged to a bottle-neck and normally turned up over the stopper of the bottle, but being capable of being sprung or bent over on its pivot, so as to receive the contents of the bottle as the latter is poured out, and then, the spoon having been filled, the stopper is inserted in the bottle, so as to prevent further contents thereof from spilling out while the bottle or spoon is tipped sufficiently to pour out the contents of the spoon as desired, and the second patent above mentioned shows simply an ordinary graduated measuringglass hung on the Y-forks of a standard.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The combination with a bottle, of a dosemeasuring device secured thereto, said device upper end, whereby it will swing by gravity near the bottle-neck when the bottle is upright, and will swing away from said neck into position beneath the mouth of the bottle when the latter is tipped, substantially as described.
2. A dose-measuring device, adapted to be secured to a bottle-neck, said device comprising a strap or clasp to clamp it to the neck, a holder freely pivoted at its upper end to said clasp, and a removable receptacle seated within said holder, the latter being tubular in form to embrace the receptacle circumfereutially and being longitudinally slotted to permit the user to observe the rise of the liquid in the contained receptacle, substantially as described.
3. In a dose-measuring device, an adjust- GEORGE H. VOODXVARD.
