BOTTLE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 714,968, dated December 2, 1902. Application filed Tune 16, 1902. Serial No. 111,969. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that LWILLIAM A. SWANSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dunkirk, in the county of Chautauqua and State of New York, have invented anew and useful Bottle, of which the following is a specification.

The invention relates to improvements in bottles.

The object of the present invention is to improve the construction of bottles and to provide a simple and comparativelyinexpensive one adapted to form a receptacle for several different kinds of liquids and capable of enabling any one of its liquid contents to be readily decanted.

The invention consists in the construction and novel combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claims hereto appended.

In the drawings, Figure 1 isa vertical sectional view of a bottle constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is a plan view. Fig. 8 is a horizontal sectional view, the section being taken above the bottom 0 the upper compartment.

Like numerals of reference designate corre sponding parts in all the figures of the drawlugs.

l designates an outer shell or body of a bottle provided with a bottom 2 and having a neck 3, which is provided with three passages or openings 4, 5, and 6, communicating with an upper compartment 7, an intermediate compartment 8, and a lower compartment 9. The upper compartment 7 consists of an inner shell, having side walls 10 conforming to the configuration of the upper portion of the body of the bottle and spaced from the same and having a circular horizontal bottom 11 of lessdiameter than the bottom 2 of the body of the bottle; but the bottle may be of any other configuration. The inner shell has a tapering upper portion,and it is connected with the neck of the bottle and with one of the side walls by upright flanges or webs 12, which extend downward from the perforation or passage 6 of the neck to a horizontal partition 13, which is of the same diameter as the body of the bottle and which is provided between the webs or flanges 12 with an opening 14, communicating with the bottom receptacle or compartment 9 of the bottle. The webs or flanges 12 are connected at their upper portions by the body of the bottle and by the inner shell, and below the bottom 11 of theinner shell the flanges are connected by an upright wall 15. By this construction a tubular passage is formed which extends through the space occupied by the intermediate compartment. The intermediate compartment, which occupies the space between the horizontal partition or diaphragm 13 and the bottom of the upper shell, communicates with the passage 5, and these passages are adapted to receive separate stoppers. The several compartments are adapted to contain diflerent kinds of liquids, and they may be separately decanted from the said compartments. The uppershell,which forms the top compartment, may be connected with the body of the bottle by webs or flanges, if desired, and the number of the vertical series of compartments may be varied.

It will be seen that the bottle is simple and comparatively inexpensive in construction, that the improvements are adapted to be applied to various kinds of receptacles having necks, and that they will enable a receptacle to contain several kinds of liquids and will permit the contents of the several compartments to be separately decanted.

What I claim is- 1. A receptacle having a neck provided with a plurality of passages, said receptacle being also provided with a vertical series of compartments communicating with the said passages, substantiallyas described.

2. A receptacle having a neck provided with a plurality of passages, and horizontal partitions arranged in the receptacle and forming a vertical series of compartments, the latter communicating with the passages of the neck, substantially as described.

3. A receptacle having a neck provided wit-h a plurality of passages, said receptacle being provided with a plurality of compartments communicating with the passages, the upper compartment consisting of an inner shell conforming to the configuration of the receptacle and spaced from the walls thereof, substantially as described.

4. A receptacle provided with a neck havinga plurality 0E passages, an inner'shell arto the neck of the receptacle and supporting ranged within the upper portion of the rethe inner shell, substantially as described. ceptacle and spaced from the walls thereof In testimony that I claim the foregoing as and communicating with one of the passages my own I have hereto affixed my signature in 5 01": the neck, a horizontal partition located bethe presence of two Witnesses.
