Application filed October 6, 1904. Serial No. 227,427.

To all 'IIIZI/O'III/ it III/Ibf/ concern:

Be it known that 1, ROBERT E. Donne's, a citizen of the United States, residing at Detroit, county of l/Vayne, State of Michigan, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Bottles; and I declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention. such aswill enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.

This invention relates to bottles; and its object is to produce a bottle that cannot be filled after it has once been emptied without such fraudulent refilling being apparent; and its novelty consists in the peculiar arrangement and combination of parts hereinafter more fully decribed and claimed.

in the drawings, jliigure 1 is a sectional ele vation of a bottle embodying my invention. The lower part of the bottle is not shown. Fig. 2 is an elevation partly in section. Fig. 3 is a perspective View more clearly showing the contracted portion of the auxiliary neck.

Similar letters refer to similar parts throughout the several views.

The bottle A is provided with a short neck a, which is of less outside diameter at its upper end than at its junction with the bottle A, thus forming an annular shoulder or ledge a about the neck. A piece of rubber tubing or other packing a is placed about the upper part of the neck and over this is forced the auxiliary neck B.

The packing of is of such quality as to readily yield itself to any irregularities in the surface of the glass and makes a tight joint between the neck a and the auxiliary neck B. The lower portion of the auxiliary neck is of the same outside diameter as the neck (6 at its junction with the bottle, and l. paste or cement a label I) about these in such manner as to cover a portion of the neck (6 and the lower part?) of the auxiliary neck. The label is in putting the label on I prefer to use some waterproof cement to prevent its removal by moistcning in water.

The auxiliary neck Bis sinuous inform and is provided with a narrow passage-way I). as clearly shown in Fig. 2, and between this passage-way and the neck a of the bottle it is globular in shape, forming a chamber 71 within which the valve C is free to move.

The lower part of the valve is ball-shaped and rests in a ground-seat in the neck (a, while the upper or wing part (a is narrow in order that it may move freely between the walls of the passage-way I). The contour of this wing part c is that of a half-circle, so that when the bottle is tilted in order to empty it the valve 0 rolls into the position shown by dotted lines in Fig. 1. The material with whichthe bottle is filled will now readily pass from the bottle around the valve 0, through passage-way I), and out of opening L in auxiliary neck. 111 this position the wing part c of the valve is wholly within the passage-way 7/, which practically forms a guide for it, and the flat surface of the valve U rests against the upper wall of the chamber 7), formed by its junction with the walls of the passage-way 7/. By reference to Fig. 1 it will be seen that a portion of the surface formed by the junction of the walls of the passageway o and the chamber o is angularly disposed as regards the normal or closed position of the valve and a further portion is horizontally disposed. The angular partof this surface begins at a point just above one edge of the valve and has a length equal to or a little greater than the diameter of the valve, so that the valve can rest against it in its open position, while the distance of the horizontal part from the neck It of the bottle is less than the diameter of the valve, thus preventing its displacement.

From the foregoing description it is evident that any attempt to force any liquid into the bottle through opening if will result in forcing the valve C onto its seat. The auxiliary neck is made/ sinuous in form to prevent the insertion of any instrument to hold the valve away from its seat. The opci'iing I)" may be closed with a cork and sealed in a manner usual with ordinary bottles.

hat I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. The combination of a bottle provided with a neck having an annular shoulder and a seat for a valve, an auxiliary neck fitting over the neck of the bottle, flush with the shoulder thereon, and being provided with a narrow or contracted passage-way, a valve which is normally seated in the neck of the bottle and is provided with a Wing-like stern which projects into the narrow passage-way, and a label secured about the auxiliary neck and the neck of the bottle, covering the junction thereof, substantially as shown and described.

2. The combination of a bottle provided with a neck having an annular shoulder and a seat for a valve, an auxiliary neck, sinuous in form, fitting over the neck of the bottle, flush with the shoulder thereon and being provided with a narrow or contracted passageway, a valve which is normally seated in the neck of the bottle and is provided with a winglike stem which projects into the narrow passage-way, and a label secured about the auxiliary neck and the neck of the bottle covering, the junction thereof, substantially as described.

3. The combination of a bottle provided with a neck having an annular shoulder and a seat for a valve, an auxiliary neck, sinuous in form, fitting over the neck of the bottle, flush with the shoulder thereon, and being provided with a narrow or contracted passageway and a globular chamber, a valve in said chamber and which is free to move therein, but is normally seated in the neck of the bottle and is provided with a narrow Wing-like stem, which projects into the narrow passageway, the walls of said passage-Way forming a guide for the stem and limiting the valve in its movement, and a label secured about the auxiliary neck and the neck of the bottle, covering the junction thereof, substantially as shown and described.

4. The combination of a bottle provided with a neck having an annular shoulder and aseat for a valve, an auxiliary neck fitting over the neck of the bottle, flush with the shoulder thereon, and being provided with a narrow or contracted passage-way, a packing between the neck of the bottle and the auxiliary neck, a valve which is normally seated in the neck of the bottle and is provided with a wing-like stern which projects into the narrow passage-way, and a label secured about the auxiliary neck and the neck of the bottle, covering the junction thereof, substantially as shown and described,

In testimony whereof I sign this specification in the presence of two witnesses.

ROBERT R. DOEMER.
