PATENT -Orrrca JAMES W. DAWSON, OF MINNEAPOLlS, MINNESOTA, ASSIGNOR TO THE VORLD BOTTLE LOCK STOP OOMPANY, OF SAME PLACE.
,BOTTLE-STOPPER.
'sPEcIIcATIoN forming part of Letters Patent No. 633,094, cated september 12, 1899.
Application filed April 17, 1899. Serial No. 713,391. (No model.)
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES W. DAWSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Minneapolis, in the county of Hennepin and State of Minnesota, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Bottle-Stoppers, of which the following is a specification. I
My invention relates' to bottle-Stoppers in which the stopper is made to impinge upon the neck or throat of the bottle by compres sion of the stopper; and the object of my improvement is to provide means for compressing the stopper, for locking it in position, for withdrawing the same from the bottle, and for adjusting the stopper to fit within bottlenecks of various sizes. l
The devices are shown in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is an elevation of the bottle with the stopper in position locked therein. Fig. 2, a vertical section of the same; Fig. 3, a transverse section through the line y y, Fig. 2; and Fig.V 4, a vertical section of the stop'- per through line m Fig. 2.
Similar numbers refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
The body of the bottle is represented by l Iand its neck by 2. Around the inner surface of the neck may be formed a circular groove 3. The cap 4 of the stopper has a downward-projecting flange 5 at its circumference. A rod 6 passes through the body of the cork 7 and is provided with a head 8 at its lower or inner end. The outer end of the rod S is provided with screw-threads, upon which is fitted a screw-nut 9, to which nut is pivoted the inner end of a lever 10, so that through the nut 9 said lever is loosely secured to the outer end of rod G in such a manner as to permit the outer end of the lever to be moved about said rod both vertically and horizontally. The outer end of lever 10 is curved at right angles to its inner end, while the inner end is provided with a substantially square corner or Yshoulder 11, which is in contact with the cap. The inner end of the lever lO is made U .-shaped, as shown in Fig. 4, so that the nut 9 may be journaled between these ends, as shown. In the circumference of the cap 4 may be provided a recess 12 to receive the outer end of said lever when the cork is locked. At the inner end of the top of the lever is a stop or projection 13. The neck of the bottle may be reinforced on its outer sur face below the groove 3 by an enlargement 14.
When the lever 10 is thrown to the position. shown in dotted lines, Fig. 2, the cork is inserted in the bottle, and the outer end of said lever being then brought down to the position shown in full lines in that figure the rod 6 is thereby drawn up and the body 7 of the cork is compressed between the cap 4 and head S, and such body being of eXible niaterial swells outward against the inner surface of the bottle-neck. Thereby the bottle is securely corked and the stopper locked in position by merely turning down the outer end of lever 10. Should it be discovered that the cork does not fit tightly enough or ts too tightly in the neck of the bottle, the cork can be adj usted to lit properly without removing it from the bottle by simplyswinging the outer end of the lever 10 to the right or left, as may be desi red, thereby drawing the rod 6 farther out by means of the screw-nut 9 and increasing the compression of the cork-body 7, or vice versa, according to the direction in which the outer end of the lever is turned. When the cork is to be removed, it is necessary only to elevate-the outer end of the lever 10 a short distance, when the shoulder 1l will have passed the center, and the expansive force of the cork-body will then cause the lever to iiy to the position shown in dotted lines, Fig. 2, where its motion will be arrested by stop 13 coming in contact with the top of the cap 4. The lever 10 then forms a convenient hooked handle by which the cork is withdrawn.
The sudden release of the compression of the cork-body when the shoulder 11 has passed the center, whereby the cork is freed from the neck of the bottle and the bottle opened instantaneously after a slight movement of the lever, is an important feature in serving many kinds of drinks usually kept in bottles.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a bottle-stopper, the combination of a cork-body, a cap over said cork-body, a downy IOC cork-body and the cap, a screw-nut and a lever, said nut being received upon Iche outer end of said rod und said lever being pivoted to the nun, and a recess in the circumference of the cap, substantially as herein set forth.
2. In a bottle-stopper, the combination of a cork-body, a cap over said cork-body, said cap being provided with a downward-projecting flange at its circumference, a head beneath the cork-body, a rod secured to said head and passing lnhrough the cork-body and cap, a screw-nut and a lever, said nut being received upon lshe outer end of said rod and said lever being pivoted to the nut and provided with a JAMES W. DAVSON.
