SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 649,178, dated May 8, 1900. 'Appntetm'tied November 6,1899. serial No. 735,917. (Nq model.)
To ctZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FREDERICK RICHARD- SON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Providence, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Tops for Tooth- Powder Receptacles, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to caps or stopples for tooth-powder receptacles.
The objectof the invention is to facilitate the distribution of the powder.
T ooth-powder is Ausually sold in bottles and requires to be distributed on the tooth-brush. The bottle or other receptacle must have a comparatively-large opening for iilling the same with powder. When the powderis discharged from this opening to be used on the tooth-brush, a great deal of the powder is wasted.
The invention consists in the peculiar and novel construction of the device whereby the receptacle is closed and the'distribution of the powder is facilitated.
Figure l is a side View of a powder-receptacle provided with my improved powder-distributing top. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the powder-distributing top, showing the same constructed to form the stopple for a tooth-powder bottle. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the rotatable top. Fig. 4t is a plan view of the end of the sleeve on which the top is rotatably secured. Fig. 5 is a vertical sectional View of the top, showing the sleeve extending over the neck of the bottle or other receptacle. Fig. 6 is a vertical sectional view of a modified form of the top. y
In the drawings, a indicates a bottle or other receptacle adapted to contain tooth-powder; d, the neck of the receptacle; l), a tubular sleeve open at its lower end and closed by the plate b at its upper end. The plate b' is perforated by the openings b2 b2 and provided with the stops b3 b3. In the preferred form the upper end of the sleeve b is provided With the bead b4, extending around the upper edge of the sleeve.
When the top is to be secured Within the neck of the receptacle, the annular tube b5 of cork or other suitable material is placed on the sleeve b. When the sleeve incloses the neck, as is shown in Fig. 5, the annular tube b5 is omitted and the sleeve secured to the neck in any usual manner. The cap c, preferably stamped up from a piece of sheet metal, has the raised ridges c c on each side of the groove c2 extending across the width of the cap c. The material of the cap c, forming the bottom of the groove c2, is perforated by the openings c? c3, corresponding with the openings b2A h2 in the plate b. The margin of the cap c is bent over the bead b4 on the upper end of thel sleeve b in the preferred form, and thereby rotatably connected with the sleeve h and with the surface of the cap around the openings c3 c3 in contact with the plate b. The stops Z13 b3 extend into the raised ridges 0' c' and arel located so as to limit the rotation of the cap c at the point when the openings c3 c3 are over the openings b2 b2 and when they are at or nearly at right angles to the same, as is shown in Fig. 3, Where the openings b2 h2 are indicated in broken lines.
In the modified form shown in Fig. 6 the cap c is secured to the plate h' by the central pivotal rivet c4. The outer edge of the cap c may be milled, as indicated in Figs. l and 3.
Iu using my improved device for distributing the tooth-powder the cap c is rotated to bring the openings c3 c3 over the openings b2 b2. This is facilitated by the stops 173. The bristle-face of the tooth-brush' is now placed between the inclined sides of the ridges c c', which are on each side of the groove c2-,thereby bringing the bristles on ,the edge of the toothbrush in closer Contact with the rest of the bristles and preventing the tooth-powder from IOO Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patentl. In a powder-distributing device, in combination, a tubular sleeve, a perforated plate at one end of and integral with the tubular sleeve, a stop on the perforated plate, a perforated cap, raised ridges on the cap, inclined sides on the ridges forming the sides of a central groove, and means for securing the cap rotatably on the perforated plate; whereby the rotation of the cap controls the opening and closing of the perforations and the distribution of the powder, as described.
2. In a powder-distributing device,the combination with the tubular sleeve I), the plate b integral with the tubular sleeve b, the open ings 11202 in the plate, and the beaded edge D of the sleeve, of the cap c, the raised ridges c c on the opposite sides ot the central groove c2, the openings c3 c3, and the marginal groove extending over the beaded edge b4, whereby the cap is rotatably secured, as described.
3. In a poWder-distribu ting device,the combination with the tubular sleeve b, the plate b secured to one end of the tubularsleeve, and the openings b2 b2 in the plate, of the cap c, the raised ridges c c on the sides of the central groove, a stop on the plate b' cooperating with one of the raised ridges c', and the pivotal rivet c, whereby the cap is rotatably secured to the plate, as described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
