IMPROVED BOTTLE-STOPPER.

TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Be it known that I, JOHN H. GOULD, of Newburyport, in the county of Essex, and State of Massachusetts, have invented a. new and' improved Bottle-Stopper; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification. e
The present invention relates to a stopper for` bottles and other similar vessels, which consists of a; rubber or other suitable ball hung by a. spring coiled about the neck of the bottle in such u. manner that it can be swung over and-away from the top of the bottle, according as it is desired to close or open the same, the' spring, when the ball is over the bottle, holding the same thereon and bringing it to a close and air-tight seat, owing to the elasticity or adaptability of the ball to adjust itself to the surface of the same, and set slightly within and below its open end.
In the accompanying plate of drawings, my improved stopper for bottles, &c., is illustrated, the figure being a side View of a bottle having it applied thereto, with its neck at its open end in vertical section.
A, in the drawings, represents the bottle, and B its neck. Around the neck B a. wire spring, C, is coiled, below the edge D of its collar, E, where one end commences, with the other passed or bent up from the lower round F of the coilfand extended through the centre of a rubber ball, G, from one side to t-he other, and thence down the opposite side of the bottle, where it is hoo'ked over and to the lower round F of the spring coil, the length of the side extension-pieces to the coiled spring being sufficient to allow the rubber ballto be brought over the' mouth o1' opening to the neck of the bottle, and there firmly hold it in place, and to and upon the same. The rubber ball adjusts itself in posit-ion upon the mouth to the bottle, and by the action of the spring is tightly held thereto, closing the bottle, while at the sumo time the bottle can be opened by simply swinging the rubber ball oil` ofits mouth o'r opening, as is obvious, the stopper always being, however, upon and fastened to thebottle, and thus not liable to be lost or mislaid-a quite important advantage and desideratum.
I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A-stopper for bottles, consisting of a rubber or other suitableball held and attached to the bottle-neck' by a coiled spring, substantially as .and for the purpose described.
