NON-REFILLABLE BOTTLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 782,653, dated February 14, 1905.
l Application filed July 16, 1904. Serial No. 216,865.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM HANDLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at J erseyville, in the county of Jersey and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Non-Refillable Bottle, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to improvements in be freely decanted.
With these and other objects in view 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, it being understood that various changes in the form, proportion,
size, and minor details of construction within the scope of the claims may beresorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of a non-refillable bottle constructed in accordancewith this invention. is a horizontal sectional view on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a similar view on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 isan enlarged detail sectional view of the upper end of the vent-tube. Fig. 5 is a similar view of the lower end of the vent-tube. Fig. 6 is an enlarged side elevation of the flexible outlet or valve of the venttube.
Like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawings.
. 1 designates a bottle provided at a point between the ends of its neck 2 with an interiorly-arranged horizontally-disposed annular Fig. 2
groove 3, adapted to receive a filling l. of cement or other plastic or analogous material, for securinga cylindrical lower stopper 5 within the neck 2. Although in the accompanying drawings the device is shown applied to a bottle, yet it will be readily understood that the improvements are applicable to all kinds of receptacles having necks. The groove is preiE erably formed by curving the neck outward, as shown; butitmay be constructed in any other desired manner, and the bottle is provided at one side with a filling-aperture 6for enabling the cement or other material to be introduced into the groove. Thelower stopper, which constitutes a valve-casing, as hereinafter explained, may be constructed of any suitable material,and it may be provided adjacent to the annular groove of the neck withany character of surface for enabling the cement to adhere firmly to it. The lower stopper or valve-casing is provided with an upwardly-tapered longitudina'l opening or passage 7, and it has a valveseat 8 at its lower end. The valve-seat consists of a disk or plate cemented or otherwise valve may be constructed of any suitable material, and it is retained on the valve-seat when the receptacle is in an upright position by means of gravity and also by the aid of a coiled spring 10, which is conical to conform to the configuration ot' the valve. The top or apex of the spring is secured to the valve by means of a stem or rod 11, extending through the valve and provided at its upper end with a head 12 for engaging the spring. The base of the spring engages opposite recesses or notches 13, formed in projecting lugs of the walls of the passage 7; but a continuous recess or groove may be provided, if desired.
The base of the spring may be readily sprung into the opposite recesses or notches, and the parts are assembled before the valve-seat is sitely-curved wires 16 and 17 which are coiled between their ends to form the said eyes. The terminals of the upper wire are secured to the lower wire at opposite sides thereof, and the ends of the lower wire are extended to form attaching-arms and are connected with the valve-seat, The valve-stem is provided with a weight or enlargement 18, which is arranged between the eyes of the guide to limit the movement of the valve and which assists the valve in overcoming the spring when the receptacle is inverted for decanting its contents. The weight, which may be constructed of any suitable material, is applied to the valve-stem after the valve and valve-seat have been applied to the valve-casing. The upper ends of the passage 7 of the valve-casing is covered with a disk orsheet 19 of wire-gauze cemented or otherwise secured to the valvecasing and adapted to prevent insects and accumulation from entering the receptacle. The device is also provided with a guard 20, consisting of a disk provided with depending lugs 21 and forming feet and suitably secured to the valve-casing. The guard is spaced from the upper end of the valve-casing and from the walls of the neck, and the liquid is adapted to pass around the periphery of the guard. The guard prevents a tool or instrument from being introduced into the bottle for interfering with the operation of the valve.
In order to enable the liquid to flow freely from the receptacle, a vent-tube 22, of hard rubber, glass, or any other suitable material, is provided, and it is arranged in a groove 23 in one side of the valve-casing, and it extends downward therefrom into the receptacle. It is provided at its lower end with a flexible outlet or valve 24, which is adapted to prevent any of the liquid from entering the venttube. This flexible outlet or valve consists of two longitudinal strips of rubber or other suitable material secured to and extending from the lower end of the vent-tube. The strips are cemented or otherwise secured to their side edges, and their lower portions normally lie flat against each other. They are readily separated by the air passing through the vent-tube, and they are capable of effectually preventing liquid from entering the tube. The vent-tube is provided at its top with an approximately L-shaped portion 25, consisting of horizontal and vertical arms, the horizontal arm extending beneath the guard and the vertical arm being passed through an opening thereof. The tube is arranged in the opening of the guard before securing the latter to the valve-casing and before applying the flexible outlet or valve to the lower end of the tube. The vertical arm of the L-shaped portion of the tube is enlarged at the end 26 to receive a ball-valve 27, and it is provided with a seat 28. The enlarged portion is provided with a depressed or inwardly-extending top, and it has openings 29 at opposite sides of the same for the entrance of air. The depressed or inwardly-extending top is adapted to prevent the ball from covering the openings, and the particular construction of the upper end of the tube pre vents a wire or other instrument from being introduced into the same for holding the ball away from the valve-seat 28. The ball covers the port or passage at the valve-seat when the bottle is in an upright position, and it rolls therefrom when the bottle is inverted.
The several parts of the device are assem bled before applying it to a bottle or other receptacle, and after the said parts are assembled the device may becemented in the necks of receptacles as required.
The upper portion of the neck is adapted to receive an ordinary cork or stopper 30, and the receptacle may be sealed in the usual manner. After the cork has been extracted the contents of the receptacle may be readily poured therefrom, and it will be impossible to adulterate the same or refill the bottle without mutilating it sufficiently to indicate such fact.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In a device of the class described, the combination of a valve-casing provided with a valve-seat, a valve arranged upon the seat and having a stem, and a coiled spring of substantially conical form connected at its apex with the stem of the valve, said spring having its base spaced from the valve-seat and detachably interlocked with the valve-casing at a. point between the valve-seat and the upper end of the casing.
