RETAINING DEVICE FOR BOTTLE-STOPPERS- SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 778,203, dated December 20, 1904.
Application filed September 1, 1904:. Serial No. 222,917.
To all whom it may concern.-
Beit known that 1, ANDREW MOTERNEN, of Andover, county of Essex, State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improvement in Retaining Devices for Bottle-Stoppers, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, like characters on the drawings representing like parts.
This invention has for its object to construct a self-adjusting retaining device for bottlestoppers especially adapted .for use on bottles fitted with the ordinary cork or rubber stopper, said device being soconstructed that it may be applied to bottles of diflerent sizes having stoppers projecting difierent distances from its neck and when applied may be easily operated to engage and disengage the stopper.
My invention is embodied in a retaining device consisting of an elastic ring' adapted to embrace the neck of the bottle. and an elastic loop formed integral with said ring, having a cylindrical stopper-engaging portion at the en Figure 1 shows in front elevation a portion of a bottle having a retaining device for the stopper embodying this invention. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the bottle shown in Fig. 1.

enlargement, and being flat will 'hold thereon snugly and will be prevented from easily drawing or pulling ofi by engaging the enlargement on the bottle. The elastic loop which is formed integral with said ring a has flat side portions 6 Z) and a cylindrical end portion Z), and when in use said cylindrical end portion is adapted to be brought into engagement with the stopper c, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, when the device is fitted onto the neck of the bottle. The elastic loop may be turned down while the ring remains on the neck of the bottle, as shown in Fig. 2, for the purpose of withdrawing the stopper, after which said loop may be restored, and these operations are greatly facilitated by providing the cylindrical end portion 6. When the cylindrical end portion is in engagement with the stopper, it will flatten slightly, by reason of being made of elastic material; but notwithstanding such flattening it may be rolled off of or onto the stopper easily, whereas if made as a fiat band great difficulty is experienced in thus manipulating the device;
By making both ring and loop of elastic material-as rubber, for instance-the device may be readily applied: to bottles of different sizeshaving stoppers projecting at different distances from the neck.
Having thus described myinvention, what [claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
