SPECJIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 648,362, dated April 24, 19O.
Application filed June 2, 1899. Serial No. -7l9ll6. (No model.)
To all whom t 7er/ty aon/cern,.-
Beit known that I, LOUIS STREBEL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Mount Vernon, in the county of Westchester and State of New York, have invented certain Improvements in Bottle-Stoppers, of which the following is a specification. This invention relates to certain improvements in bottle-Stoppers of that class which are used for charging carbonated water into the bottle through the stopper, the stopper being held in position on the bottle by means of a pivoted bail and locking-lever; and the invention consists in the combination, with a bottle, of a stopper-head, a closing-lever pivotally secured to the bottle, and a bail oonsisting of two sections connecting the stopper-head and closing-lever, each bail-section being pivoted at its lower end to the closinglever and connected at its upper end independently to the stopper-head, and, further, in a specific construction of Stopper-head and in certain combinations of parts to be more fully described hereinafter and iinally pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l represents a side elevation of my improved bottle-stopper. Fig. 2 is a vertical central section of the same on line 2. 2, Fig. l. Fig. 3 is also a vertical central section showing the valve of the bottle-stopper in open position for charging the bottle.` Figs. 4 and V5 are horizontal sections, respectively, on line 4 4,
Fig. 2, and 5 5, Figi 3; and Fig. 6 is a detailv ing-lever B is provided with a second eye b below the larger eye b at each side of the lever, the eyes b' b serving for the purpose of receiving the lower S-shaped ends of the bail- The bottle-stopper is composed of four parts-ea stopper-head D, which is preferably made of metal; an interior hollow plug D', which is preferably made of porcelain a valve D2, that is guided in the plug D' and made of porcelain, glass, metal, or other suitable ma- 6o terial, and an elastic cap D3, which is applied to the lower end of the plug and fitted to the lower part of the stopper-head D, as shown clearly in Fig. 2. The stopper-head D is made of cylindrical shape, open at the lower end and provided in its top with a small central Opening d, in which the upper end d of the valve D2 is seated when the valve is closed, as shown in Fig. 2. At the interior the head D is provided at diametrically-oppo- 7o site points with projecting lugs d2, that engage L-shaped grooves d2 in the outer-wall of the plugD, so as to form with the same a kindof bayonet-joint by which the plug D can be readily inserted into or detached from the head D of the stopper. -The holes and recesses dx, into which the upper angular ends of the bail-sections enter, are located at right angles to the lugs of the bayonet-joint.
The upper adjacent portions of the plug D' 8o are Slightly recessed at d4, so as to permit the free play of the angularly-bent upper ends of the bail-sections C, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4. The plug D is provided at its upper part with a larger cylindrical opening for the head of the valve D2, the shank or stem of which is made triangular in shape and provided with guide-ribs, as shown in Fig. 4, so as to-be guided in the lower part of the plug D. The
lower part of the plug is provided Witha cir- 9o cumferential groove for springing on the rim of the elastic head D2, said rim being extended in inward and outward direction, so as to form a gasket between the bottle-head and the rim of the bottle-mouth. The. elastic cap D3 isv 95 provided at its inner central portion with a slightly-raised portion or seat d5, on which the lower end of the valve D2 rests when the parts of the stopper are in normally-closed position.
The head of the valve is then pressed against roo nozzle for the carbonated liquid on the same and by the pressure of the lower end of the valve on themiddle bridge-like portion of the cap D3, so, asgto permit the passage. of theY carbonated liquid along the shank of the valve through the slits to the interior y'of the bottle until the same is filled. As soon as this is accomplished the snppli7 of earbonated liquid is interrupted, so that the-pressurer` at the in.
terior of t'hebottle closes the slits in the bottom of the elastic cap and produces the. rais,- ing of the valve into its normal position, so
as, to close tightly the upper end of the bottlef The sitopperisv stopper, as shown in Fig. 2. v thusfclosed at two points, so that there is no p osvsibilityof leakage from the interior ofthe same, By arranging the slits paralleler approximately parallel in the bottone part of the elastic cap a transverse Ior bridge-like, portion is formed between the slits which acts in the; nature of a spring that closes immediately the slits as soon as the downward pressure .on the seat d5 of thebridge portion, caused bythe downward pressure on the val,ve,lis
relieved. Y
When my. improved bottle-stopper is to be assembled, thevalve is first inserted intohthe. plnlebaybnet-jointwith'the head of; the stopper, after which the elastic cap. is placed in posiing-lever is then applied by its eyes onto the lraised and grooved lugs on the bottleneck, and, lastly, the upper endsof-the bail-sections C- C'sprung into the openings` and sockets of thevcapk and plug and their lower ends into..
the eyes of the closing-lever B, so that all the parts,l of the stopper` are in position onL the bottle.; When it is desired to fill the bottle,
the head of 'the stopperI is placed with its.
stoppersopening in connection with the supy'ply-#nozzle,bei1 1g provided with a central pin which. presses down the valvefhead, so'that the valveis opened and; at the. same time the slitted portion ofthe elastic cap pressed` in downward direction, so as totorm passagesE through which the. carbonated liquid is-vsupf. plied to one interior o the bottle..r Assoon the bottle is; filled the'bottlefhead inra-- moved from, the `supply-Joomlaandthe valve. closed.r automatically by the pressure atthe.
the spring bottom of the elastiecap.. When the bottle-is to be, opened, the fnlernnled-elos ing-lever is openedby belnf.;` removed a.,x frolnthe. nook' ofthe bottle, so thattlne1 bailsections are lifted and the. stopperwmoived away `from the lmouth of the bottle. This is The plus is then connected bythe o assisted by the interior pressure of the bot tle. The contents of the bottle are then discharged, and the same may be relled in the same manner as described after the same is returned to the bottler. l
The advantagesof my improved bottle-stopper areV that the bottle-Stoppers of the ordinary style, which are` permanently attached by a wire bail and closing-lever-to the bottle, can be used also for being filled with carbonated liquids, the stopper having'byits valve construction all facilities for filling the bot- .,tle, while the bail and lever attachment retains the stopper permanently on'the mouth of the bottle, so as to be always ready for use whenever the bottle is to be opened, emptied, and recharged. o
By making the plein parts of the. bottlestopper of porcelain a` stopper is obtained that isy not detrimental to the liquidA supplied by the chargingapparatus and that can be readily cleaned whenever desired by detaching the individual parts of the stopper and reassembling them again preparatory to replacing; them. on the bottle.
When. the parts of they stopper are assem- .bled and properly pnt 'vosethen the; interior o portions of the same are protected against the ingress of,` d ust orother impurities by they tight fitting of the parts andthe smal-l opening which is arranged at the topfpart of, the head, Y while the. bottom part is closed, bythe circumferential r-iin of the elastic cap, so that the cleaning of the bottle-stopper for ordinary use may be conveniently accomplished withoutV detaching the parts from each other. Having thus described my invention, I
i claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patentetion on the lower end of the plug.v Thecloss 1. ThecQmbinatOn, with a bottle, ofastopper-head provided with side openingsand i11- terior recesses, a closing-lever pivotally se 'cured to the bottle, and a bail consisting of two sections connecting thestopper-head and closing-lever, each bail-sectionjbeing pivoted .at its lower end tothe closing-lever and pro vided with an inwardly-bent, angular portion at its upper end for engagement with the y stopper-head,substantially as set forth.
