Definitions

  • GILLETTE OF YO RK,'N.. Y., ASSIGNOR TO ALUMINUM BOTTLE OAP COMPANY, A CORPORATION OF MAINE.
  • This invention consists in combining with a bottle having a circumferentially-projecting head,or such head with an annular groove therein whereby a circumferential shoulder is produced, a compressible packing ring or gasket which is placed under the head or in the annular groove. and a sealing-cap comprising a crown and an annular dependent flange the edge of which is turnedin and upon the said packing-ring to form a tight joint.
  • Fig. 2 is asimilar view illustrating the condition of the cap and the packing-ring after the joint is completed.
  • Fig. 3 is an exterior view of Fig. 2.
  • 1 is a bottle-head having a circumferential groove 2, whereby an annular shoulder 3 is produced.
  • the bottle-head is of well-known description.
  • an elastic compressible packing-ring 5 preferably of rubber.
  • the sealing-cap comprising a disk forming the crown 9 and the dependent flange 10.
  • the cap is made from thin sheet-aluminium, for the reason that that metal is easily worked, is innocuous, and may be readily cut with a knife. It is intended that the inner surface of the crown of the cap shall come in direct contact with the bottle-lip, but I do not debar myself from employing a varnish or even a lining for the capcrown if such should prove an advantage.
  • the flange lO'adjacent to the crown 9 partakesof the shape of the exterior lip of the bottle, and either fits the same when first applied to the bottle or is made to conform to its contour in the capping operation hereinafter described.
  • annular groove 2 is hardly as deep as the thickness or width of the packing-ring. That device will therefore project slightly beyond the shoulder 3 formed by the groove 2.
  • the capping operation consists in placing the packing-ring under the shoulder of the bottle-head, then placing the cap over the bottle-head and packing-ring, and while the cap is-held tightly in place turning in the edge of the flange under the packing-ring so sition on bottles mechanically, the operation to be performed in connection with that of turning in the edge of the flange to complete the joint. It will be understood that with a joint formed as described pressure in the bottle, which has a tendency to raise the crown of the cap from the bottle-lip, will not loosen the joint, but rather tighten it, for the reason that any upward movement of the inturned edge of the flange increases the compression of the packing-ring.
  • the cap may be removed byany suitable tool; but should the cap be formed of thin sheet-aluminium, which is the preferred material, the crown of the cap may be cut out by means of a knife at its junction with the bottle-lip and a clear orifice for the passage of the contents of the bottle thereby effected.
  • a flanged disk adapted to be placed over the head of the bottle and the packing-ring, and the flange of the disk turned in, and under the packing-ring and thereby compress the same against the under side of the shoulder, substantially as, and for the purpose specified.
  • a cap for the same comprising a crown which conforms to the contour of the exterior lip of the bottle-head, and a dependent flaring flange adapted to be placed over the head and its edge turned in under the packing-ring to compress the same against the under side of the shoulder, substantially as specified.
