PATENT FLY-SCREEN.
SPECIFICATION forming pare of Letters Patent No. 623,445, dated April 1e, 189e.
Application filed May 21, 1898. Serial No. 681,334. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANK WILLIAM VAN TUYL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Algiers, in the parish of Orleans and State of Louisiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fly-Screens; 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 novel and useful improvements in screens especially adapted to be placed upon cans of condensed milk, fruit-cans, and like receptacles after the same have been opened for the purpose of keeping ies and other insects from reaching the contents thereof.
The primary object of the invention is to provide a simple and inexpensive device that will possess the requisites of strength and durability and one that can be readily attached to the receptacle and removed therefrom when the contents of said receptacle has been used.
Vith these and other objectsin view,which will become apparent in the course of the following description, all looking toward improving and simplifying devices of this character generally, my invention consists in the novel combination and arrangement of simple parts, which will be hereinafter fully described, and the points of novelty will be particularly set forth in the claims.
Wit-h these objects in view I have devised the device illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure lis a side elevation of the preferred form of my device attached to a portion of a milk-cau. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal section of the device removed from the milk-can and the screen proper rocked back slightly. Fig. 3 is a side elevation of a modification of ymy invention; and Fig. 4 is a top plan view thereof, showing the screen proper swung to one side.
Referring to the drawings, the numeral l indicates a band, which in carrying out my invention I provide with a plurality of indentations 2 for the purpose of making the band fit receptacles of different diameters. EX- tending transversely across the band and secured thereto at either end in any convenient manner is a rod 3 for the purpose of scraping the drippings from the bottom of the spoon in removing the contents from the receptacle. Hinged to the band, at one side thereof, is a hood or cap formed of a band 4 and a wiregauze portion 5, which may be secured to the band 4 in any convenient manner.
Referring particularly to the modification illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4, the band lis provided with indent-ations in a manner similar to the bands illustrated in Figs. l and 2; but in this instance the band is provided with an ear 6, corresponding in shape to an ear 7, provided at one side of the hood, both ears being perforated for the passage of a rivet. By this means the hood is pivotally secured to the band and is adapted to be swung to one side or the other when it is desired to have access to the contents of the can. The band l in this instance is provided with a rod or scraper similar to that shown in Figs. l and 2 and obviously for the same purpose.
In use the entire top of the can, at the thin end thereof, is cut out, as usual, and the lower band is made to embrace a can near the upper edge thereof. When the milk or contents of the can is being removed therefrom, the drippin gs on the bottom of the spoon are read'- ily removed by drawing the spoon across the rod 3.
Itis obvious that the invention herein set forth is susceptible to minor changes involving mechanical skill, which may be made within the scope ofthe invention without departing from the spirit thereof, and changes in proportion and minor details of construction may be resorted to without sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention, and itis obvious that'the device maybe used upon any receptacle for which its use is found advantageous. Y
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. As a new manufacture, a iiy-screen for open-mouth vessels, comprising a resilient band for grasping the mouth of the vessel, a screen hinged to said band, and a rod extending transversely across the band, substantially as described.
2. Adevice of the character described, comprising a suitable band adapted to surround IOO the upper end of the can, said band being provided with slightly-resilient indentations, a hood hinged to said band, said hood being formed of Wire-gauze or other suitable material, and a rod extending transversely across said band and secured thereto at its ends for the purpose set forth, substantially as described.
3. A device of the character set forth, coniprising a band having slightly-resilient indentations therein,.and an ear formed on one side thereof, a hood or screen provided with a corresponding ear, a rivet passing through said ears whereby the screen is hinged to the band, substantially as described.
4. A device of the character set forth, comprising a suitable band adapted tosiirround the upper end of a can or other receptacle, said band being provided with slightly-resilient indentations for the purpose set forth, a rod extending across said band and having its end secured thereto, and a hood pivoted tosaid band and adapted to swing laterally, said hood being formed of Wire-gauze, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I atx my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
FRANK WILLIAM VAN TUYL.
