Description

PATENTED JULY 21, 1908.

DROPPER BOTTLE. APPLICATION FILED MAR-13, 1908.
n M W M M UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE ALVAN HAMMAN, OF LAWRENCE, KANSAS.
DROPPER-BOTTLE.
To all whom "it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE ALvAN HAM- MAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lawrence, in the county of Douglas and the State of Kansas, have invented a new Dropper-Bottle.
The dropper bottle is intended to act as a container for any liquid content, and also by reason of its unique construction to make it possible for the consumer to use the contents of the bottle in small amounts or drop doses. It was especially devised that the original container (in which a liquid oil is placed on the market) could be conveniently used to deliver its contents to the interior of the nose in small doses. If the tapered end (a) of the bottle is inserted into the nostril, and the head thrown back, ently tapping the other end (B) will cause a ew drops of the contents to be discharged into the nose.
Referring to the drawings, Figure (1) represents the out side of the bottle and Fig. (2) a longitudinal sectional d rawing of the tapered end (a) midway of the outlet or opening (f) in this end.
The bottle consists of a hollow body of uniform caliber and two ends, (a) and (B) Fig. (1), both of which ends present openings. The end (B) is shaped like the ordinary neck and mouth of a bottle to receive a cork. opening'in this end is conveniently large and is to be used only for filling the bottle, hence should be tightly corked when the bottle is in operation. The end (a) Fig. (1) is gradually tapered from the body of the bottle until it terminates in a blunt point, in the apex of which is a small opening or outlet (f). On section Fig. (2) the character of this outlet (1) is disclosed. The walls of the bottle (h) around this opening or outlet (f) in the apical end of the bottle are intentionally thickened so as to convert the opening into a short Specification of Letters Patent.

canal. This arrangement permits of the introduction of a tiny cork,'for purposes of closure only, when the bottle is not in use.
The inner opening of this canal may be constricted at the point ((1), although this is not essential, for the operation of the bottle will be just as satisfactory if the canal is made uniform in caliber throughout its length. Of course it would be possible to modify the shape of this canal but any such modification would be the same in principle. These bottles consist of a single piece or part preferably made of glass.
The bottle operates in the following manner. The opening in'the end (B) is tightly stoppered and the tiny cork is removed from the canal or outlet (7) in the apex of the tapered end, although the bottle is now held inverted with the tapered end (a) down, the contents is perfectly retained by atmos pheric pressure. However, if the upper end (B) of the bottle is given a gentle tap with the fore finger of the holding hand, a small amount of the contents will be discharged from the outlet (f) in the tapered end.
I claim, therefore,
A dro per bottle, made in a single piece or part pre erably of glass, consisting of a body of uniform caliber and provided at one end (B) with a large opening, and gradually tapering from the body of the bottle at the other end (a) to a blunt point, in the apex of which is a small outlet (f), the walls of the bottle at the blunt point being thickened so as to convert the outlet (7) into a canal, thus adapting it for the introduction of a tiny cork (to be used for purposes of closure only).
GEORGE ALVAN HAMMAN.
