' UNITED STATES PATENT @EEIQE- ADOLPII H. WVERREMEYER, JR, OF CENTRAL, MISSOURI.
'FUNNEL ATTACHMENT FOR VESSELS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 611,304, dated September 27, 1898.
Application filed September 18, 1897. Serial No. 652,148. (No model.)
T0 aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ADOLPH I-I. WEEKE- MEYER, J12, a citizen of the United States, residing at Central, in the county of St. Louis and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Funnel Attachments for Vessels, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
My invention has relation to improvements in funnel attachments for vessels; and it consists in the novel arrangement and combination of parts more fully set forth in the specification and pointed out in the claim.
In the drawings, Figure lis a side elevation of a can with funnel attached, showing the parts in operative position. Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the same, and Fig. 3 is an elevation of the same with the funnel resting over the upper end of the can when the latter is not in use.
The object of my invention is to provide vessels-such as pint, quart, or gallon measures-with a funnel which shall form a permanent attachment for such vessel and yet be so connected thereto that it may be swung to a position as to be out of the way of the pouring-spout of the vessel when there is no occasion to use the funnel.
In detail the invention may be described as follows:
Referring to the drawings, 1 represents a measure of the ordinary kind, and 2 the pour ing-spout thereof. Disposed along the upperedge of the measure, diametrically opposite one another at each end of the spout, are loops 3, each of which is adapted to be loosely embraced by a rigid slotted link 4, each link simultaneously embracing a loop 5, disposed along the upper edge of a funnel 6 at points diametrically opposite one another. In this manner a slotted and sliding connection is established between the funnel and measure,
and from the position of the loops 3 the links D can be swung to any position about the measure. In Fig. 1 the measure is shown with its spout resting on the funnel in position for pouring out the contents of the measure through the funnel. The dotted lines show the funnel swung back behind the handle 7 of the measure, and in Fig. 3 the funnel is shown resting directly over the open end of the measure, thus serving as a cover therefor and excluding dust and dirt when the measure is not in use. The funnel may be provided with a strainer 8, as shown in Fig. 2.
The advantages of the present construction may be enumerated as follows: The funnel is always attached to the measure, so that the same cannot be misplaced or lost, and it is always ready for use. The funnel may be used as a cover for the measure. WVhen the funnel is not needed, it may be swung back of the handle. The funnel can be placed readily in position with little or no danger of spilling contents of measure. Other advantages are likewise apparent.
Having described my invention, What I claim isv In a combined measure and funnel, a suitable measure, loops disposed diametrically opposite one another along the upper edge of the same on the outer surface of the measure, rigid slotted links loosely embracing the loops and adapted to slide along the same and be swung about the measure, and a funnel suspended from said links and adapted to be slidingly moved along-the links whereby the spout or edge of the measure can be brought against the funnel, the whole being adapted to be swung about the measure and the handle carried thereby, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
