closure A has a rubber gasket which e1n the peripheral portion, part oi said city of Mansfield, in. the county of Richland gasket extending above the closure and a por- Improved Closure for Cans or Similar Receptacles; and I do hereby declare that the folowing is a full and exact description of the same.
The object of this inventionis to provide a simple closure for cans or similar receptacles, the invention residing particularly in the formation of the top portion of the can in a peculiar manner whereby the same may be operated upon in order to effectively secure the closure of the receptacle in position, after said rece tacle has been filled.
A furt or object of the invention is to provide a closure which embodies a maximum degree of 'sim licity, admits of sealing the recefiptacle to W ich it is applied in a quick and e ective manner, and which possesses other advantages which will be appreciated on reference to the following description.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a can or recepta le embodying the invention; Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the upper portion of a can showin the relative arrangement and size of the gasket and closure which are located in spaced relation to the top of the receptacle; Fig. 3 is a' fragmentary view similar to Fig. 2, the closure being shown in operative position, the slitted flange of the receptacle, however, riot being bent or turned downward as when in cooperation with the closure to seal the receptacle; and Fig. 4c is a view similar to Fig. 3 illustrating the receptacle closed.
, Like reference characters refer to like )arts throughout the description and in the rawlng.
Specifically describing the invention, the letter I) designates the body of the receptacle which may be of any suitable type and which is provided at the upper portion thereof with a lateral ofl'set, or shoulder, upon which the closure A is adapted to be su ported when in operative position closing t c said receptacle.
Formed integrally with the offset or shouldered portion of the top of the can is avertical flange or rim E which is provided at intervals with the annula'rly arranged slits C. Thev closure A is flat id may be made of any suitable material desired. To provide an lair-tight sealing means for the receptacle, the
a new and tion extending below said closure, as shown most clearly in Fig. 4 of the drawing. in other words, when the gasket, indicated B, is applied to the closure, said gasket embraces the peripheral portion of said closure in such a way that the lower portion of the gasket is interposed between the closure and the shouldcred or offset portion of the can, thus effectively sealing the receptacle in an air-tight manner, after the slitted flange E has been operatedupon so as to be turned or bent down over the top portion of the closure A at the edges of the latter.
The formation of the slits C in the flange E facilitates the operation of bending or turning the flange over upon the closure whereby 7 5 the flange cooperates with said closure to clamp the latter in position upon the shouldered or oflset portion of said can or receptacle, the operation of turning the flange E into the position shown most clearly in Fig. 4 of the drawing, compressing the gasket 15 in an obvious manner and thus sealing the receptacle so that the latter is both air and water-tight.
By reason of the formation of the flange E, 8 5 and its cooperation in securing the closure A which is flat, it will be apparent that the flange may be readily operated upon by a, suitable tool whereby it may be turned over, upon the closure in a single operation.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
In combination with a can or receptacle of the class described and having an offset or shouldered portion at its upper open end, a 5 closure adapted to rest upon the shouldered portion, said shouldered or offset portion be ing provided with an integral vertical flange extending upwardly therefrom and formed at intervals with slits substantially as s'ieci- I00 fled, and a gasket embracing the perip oral portion of the closure and extending above and beneath said closure, the vertical slitted.- flange aforesaid being turned or bent so as to engage over theperipheral portion of the re 5 closure to secure said closure in position upon the can, the gasket being compressed by the cooperation of the flange with the closure.
