ULTON, NEW YORK.
, dated January 5, 1869.
IMPROVEMENT IN OIL-CANS.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patentiwld making part of the sanne.
To all 'whom it may concern Be it known that I, O. H. GARDNER, of Fulton, in the State of NewYork, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Oil-Cans; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying ing a part of this specification, in which- Figure ly is a central vertical section.
This invention consists in providing anoil-ean with an automatic stopple, whose tendency is to keep the can always closed, and thus enable it, when containing oil, to be carried, without spilling, in the drawers of a' sewing-machine, or other like places, where its contents would be likely to do damage ifl they escaped from the can.
. To enable those skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I now proceed to describe its construetion and operation.'
Similar let-ters in the drawings refer to like parts.
A represents an ordinary conical oil-can.
B represents a brass tube, set in' the top of the can A, said tube being provided with a shoulder, l), on its inner surface, said ,shoulder being-formedby making the lower part of the bore of the tube slightly larger than the upper part.
C represents a second tube, within the tube B, and of a-size to fit closely the smaller part of' the bore thereof', said tube C being provided with a flange, c, of' a size to fit the large partof1 the bore of the tube B.
'lhe tube C is closed at its lower end by a disk, c', of' a diameter somewhat greater thanthat of the larger part ofthe bore ofthe tube B, and, between the disk c and the flange c, two semi-elliptical recesses, a a., are eut through the walls of the tube C, one on each side, to afford passages for the entrance ofl oil into said tube.
D represents a brass flange, projecting from the tube, the part of which that is below the flange being provided with a screw-thread upon its outer surface,
for that purpose.
The part of thetube which is above the flange D serves as a support for the spout e, which may be soldered to the tube.
The upper surface ofthe disk c has a peaked boss, 0*, at its centre, for the purpose of facilitating the run,- ning off of any oil that may drop from the spout, or be left after the passage of oil through the orifice a.
From the under side of the disk c projects downward a plug, h., said plug being within and supporting the upper end of a spiral spring, t', the remaining portion of' which spring is sustained by a tube, lt, projecting upward from the cent-re of' the bottom of the can A, and of' sufcient size to receive the plug h, whenever the same is f'orced downwardfar enough to enter it.
Operation.
The tendency of the spring il is to keep the flangeA c' pressed against the bottom of the tube B, and thus prevent the escape of oil, whatever maybe the position ot' the can. Whenever it is desired to letoil escape, by pressing downward upon the flange D, the tube C is lowered, and the orifices a a opened, when, by inverting the can, the oil will flow out. The instant that pressure is removed from the flange D, the spring k forces the flange c against the bottom of the tube B, closing the mouth. .The spout c may be removed,'and the can, full of oil, be packedin a trunk or drawer, as of alsewingmachine, and be transported to any distance without spilling.
Having thus described my invention,
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The tube B, in combination with the tube C, flange I), disk c', and spring i, as and for the purpose dcscribed.
- O, H. GARDNER. Vitnesses S. G. HART, M. W. WOODRUFF.
