HENRY S. BREWINGTON, OF BALTIMORE, MARYLAND.
BOTTLE-STOPPER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 703,527, dated July 1, 1902. Application filed November 9, 1901. Serial No. 81,749. (No model.)
To all whom/it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY S. BREWINGTON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Baltimore city, in the State of Maryland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bottle-Stoppers; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
Myinvention relates to bottle-stoppers, and more particularly to bottle caps or seals; and its object is to provide improved means for securing a seal in position upon the mouth of a bottle. r 1
The invention consists in the combination, with a bottle-neck formed with an external annular groove near its upper end, of a seal of sheet metal comprising a disk and a depending annular flange formed with slots to provide pendent fingers and securing-lipsalternating with said fingers. v
The improved seal will be fully described hereinafter in connection with the accompanying drawings, which form part of this specification, and its novel features will be defined in the appended claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a view in perspective of my improved cap as it appears before its application to the bottle. Fig. 2 is a vertical section of a bottle-neck with the cap in position thereon, and Fig. 3 illustrates a modification.
The reference-numeral l designates a bottle-neck formed with an external annular shoulder 2 and groove 3 and adapted to have my improved seal applied thereto. The seal comprises a disk 4 of thin sheet metal, having a depending annular flange 5, formed with a series of parallel slots 6 to provide pendent fingers 7. The width of the slots is preferably about equal to the width of the fingers 7, and the lower edges 8 of the flange 5. between the fingers constitute securing-lips to engage below the shoulder 2 of the bottleneck. A packing 9, of cork or other suitable material, is applied to the under surface of the disk 4. The cap is fitted upon the bottleneck, and the flange 5 is then crimped or compressed below the shoulder 2, as shown in Fig. 2. The fingers '7 extend well below the shoulder 2 and into the groove 3, and the lower edges 8 of the depending flange also engage below the shoulder 2 and constitute securing-lips, alternating with the fingers 7.
.other supplemental fastening means is entirely avoided.
In the modification shown in Fig. 3 the edges of the flange between the fingers are projected downward to form lips 8 which serve the same purpose as the lips 8, being merely prolongations or extensions of the latter. These lips 8, as shown, are shorter than the pendent fingers.
I claim 1. The combination with a bottle neck formed with an external annular shoulder, of
a seal comprising a disk of sheet metal, and
a depending flange formed with a series of slots to provide a continuous row of pendent fingers, saidfingers and the portion of the flange between the fingers being compressed below the shoulder of the bottle-neck.
2. The combination with a bottle neck formedwith an external annular shoulder, of a seal comprising a disk of sheet metal and a depending flange formed with a series of slots to provide a continuous row of pendent fingers, said fingers being compressed below the shoulder of the bottle-neck, the portion of the flange between said fingers being projected downward and also compressed below the shoulder.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses. Y
HENRY s. BREW-INGTON.
