A li ti fll d November 11, 1905. Serial No. 286,882.
tain new and useful Improvements in At-- tachments for Bottles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
' My invention relates toattachments for medicine-bottles and the like; and its object is to rovide a combined closure and measuring evice whereby a predetermined quantity of the contents of the bottle can be removed.
A still further object is to provide an attachment of this character which will fit tightly within the neck of the bottle and which is adapted for use in connection with bottles of different sizes.
Another object is to provide a device of this character which can be readily cleaned. The invention consists of a cork or other similar stopper having an openin there- 'through in which is detachably seate a tubular neck which extends from one end of a bulb which constitutes the measuring device.
The bulb and neck are so disposed in relation to each other that when the neck is inserted into the cork from the outer end thereof the bulb will overhang the bottle-neck and retain any liquid which may be poured thereinto. An openin is formed in the bulb and is normally'close by a cap. By providing this 0 ening a brush, &c., can be readily inserte into the bulb for cleaning it.
The invention also consists in further novel arts hereinafter more fully described and c aimed.
In the accompanying drawings, I have shown the preferred form of my invention.
In said drawings, Figure 1 is a view, artly in section and partly in elevation, of a ottle having my improved measuring closure therein, and Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the position assumed by a liquid measured within the attachment.
Referring to the figures by numerals of reference, 1 is a bottle, the neck 2 of which is adapted to receive a stopper 3, formed of cork or other similar materia and this stopper has a passage 4 therethrough, which is adapted to receive a tubular neck 5, formed at one end of a bulb 6, which is preferably substantially egg-shaped and is adapted to overhang the neck 2 when the parts are in position within the bottle. An opening 7 is formed in the butt of the bulb and s surrounded by a threaded flange 8, adapted to be engaged by a screw-ca 9.
The attachment normally assumes the position shown in Fig. 1, and when it is desired to remove a predetermined amountiof the contents of the bottle said bottle is placed in an inclined or horizontal position'with the bulb 6 downward, and the liquid will flow through the neck 5 and into the bulb. As soon as the bulb has been filled the bottle is returned to its upright position, and the liquid within the bulb will assume the position shown in Fig. 2. The neck 5 can then be withdrawn from the stopper 3 and the bulb and neck inverted, aIter which the neck can be placed in the mouth of the patient and the contents of the bulb discharged.
I I attach considerable importance to the fact that the neck 5 is mounted within a passage extending through a resilient stopper, and stoppers of difierent sizes may be util ized, so that the attachment can be employed in connection with bottlenecks of different diameters. The bulb 6 may be constructed to hold any desired quantity of li uid, such as a teaspoonful, tablespoonfiil, &c. Should it be desired to clean the bulb, the screw-cap can be removed and a brush inserted through the opening 7.
- The entire attachment is very compact and can be readily connected to a bottle adapted to be carried within a pocket. The inconvenience of carrying a spoon is therefore overcome, and besides it is more convenient to take, medicine by using this attachment, as the liquid will not flow over the sides of the bottle or of the bulb, and the interior of the bulb is protected at all times from dust, &c. 5 Having thus fully described my invention,
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
A measuringattachment for bottles comprising a bulb havin an opening at one end, to a screw-cap normal y closlng the openmg,
