SPE(.iIZEIGA'IION'v forming part of Letters Patent No. 703,525, dated July 1 1902. Application filed SeptemberlS, 1901'. Serial No. 75,326. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, HENRY S. BRnWINeroN, acitizen of the United States, residing at Baltimore city, State of Maryland, have invented new and useful Improvements in Bottle-Stoppers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to bottle-stoppers; and its primary object is to provide a stopper, preferably of cork, with a securing device of improved construction whereby the cork may be secured firmly within the mouth of the bottle-neck. I v
A further object of the invention is to provide a cork stopper with a fastening device which also serves as a means for extracting the stopper.
The construction of the improvement will be fully described hereinafter in connection with the accompanying drawing, and its novel and characteristic features will be defined in the appended claim.
The drawing represents a vertical section of a portion of a bottle-neck with my improved stopper applied thereto.
The reference-numeral l designates a bottle-neck formed on its inner surface adjacent to the upper edge thereof with an annular groove 2 and an annular shoulder 3.
4 designates the stopper, having a fastening device comprising a single piece of resilient wire, the ends 5 of which are sharpened and bent toward each other for insertion into the sides of the stopper at diametrically opposite points. The bends 6 of the wire are adapted to snap into the groove 2 and engage below the shoulder 3, as shown in the drawing, the sharpened ends 5 being forced into the cork as the latter is inserted into the bottle-mouth. The wire spans the upper end of the cork, and its central portion 7 projects above the top of the cork to serve as a loop to facilitate the extraction of the cork by means of a suitable opener.
It will be obvious from the illustration in the drawing that the stopper may be readily inserted and will be firmly held by the engagement of the I'GSlllGlllllrWlI'B fastener below the internal shoulder 3 and also that the resiliency of the fastener enables the stopper to be quickly pulled out with any opener which will engage the loop 7, projecting above the stopper.
I claim The combination with a bottle-neck formed with an internal annular groove, of a stopper comprising a cork, and a fastener consisting of a resilient wire spanning the top of the cork, and having its ends bent to form prongs to enter the stopper, and shoulders to enter the groove of the bottle-neck, and having its central portion raised above the upper end of the cork to serve as an extracting-loop.
In testimony whereof I hereby affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
HENRY S. BREWINGTON.
