ANTIFRAUD-B OTTLE Specification of Iletters Batent.
I Patented Oct. 13, 1908.
Application filed February 13, 1908. I SeriaI No. 415,709.
To all whom it may concern:
mutilating the bottle and obviously rendering it undesirable for reuse as well as indicating that it is not an original package. And the object of the invention is an improved device of this character by means of which that portion of the bottle provided with the manufacturers name, may be easily, conveniently and safely destroyed by the user in order to permit thebottle to be readily opened.
With these and other objects in view that will more fully appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists in certain constructions and arrangements of parts that I shall hereinafter fully describe and claim.
For a full understanding of the invention and the merits thereof, reference is to be had to the following description and the accompanying drawing, in which:
Figure 1 is a vertical section of my im-. proved anti-fraud bottle; Fig. 2 is a similar view thereof preparatory to closing the mouth of the bottle; Fig. 3 is a section on the line 33 of Fig. 1.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description andfindicated in all the views of the drawing by the same reference characters.
Referring tothe drawing, the numeral 1 designates the body portion of my improved bottle and 2 designates theneck thereof, said neck being designed to be closedafter :the:
body portion has been filled with the desired liquid, by an ordinary cork' stopper 3. The
A cap 8 is designed to fit over the upper end of the head 5 and is formed in its lower face near the edge thereof with an annular groove 9 in which the upper end of the head is received, the portions of the cap on each side'of the groove bearing against the respective interior and exterior shoulders 7. This cap is formed at opposite points near its edge with two depending lugs 10 to which two'arms 11 and 11* are pivotally connected at their upper ends, these arms being adapted to be swung apart to cause their lower ends that are laterally enlarged and outwardly disposed, to be received in the groove 6. A link bar 12 is hingedly connected at one end to the arm 11 so as to swing in a vertical plane, the other orfree end of the link being mounted to slide in a longitudinal slot 13 formed in the arm 11. A leaf spring 14 is secured to the arm 6 and to the link 12 and exerts its tension to swingthe free end of the link downwardly in the slot 18 and hold the link against the .lower end of said slot. When in such position the'link swings the arms 11 and 11 apart and holds the outturned ends thereof in engagement with the groove 6 so as to prevent the removal of the cap 8. In the preferred construction of the arm 11*, the latter is formed in the slot 13 with one or more downwardly facing shoulders 15 which effectually prevent the line from moving upwardly in the slot into an inoperative position.
In order to conveniently break the head from the neck'after the former has been closed by the cap, the cap is formed with a threaded opening extending therethrough,-
and an actuating rod 16 is threaded at'its upper end and mounted in such opening. The upper extremity of the rod projects through the cap and is preferably formed with a transverse aperture 17 in which a pin may be" inserted to render the rod easily turned. A dome-shaped disk 18 is swiveled to the lower extremity of the rod 16 and is adapted to extend over the upper end of the cork 3 and to have its edge bear against the flared portion 1- below the scoring thereot'. The rod 16 is formed intermediate of its ends with one or more outward projections 16 which serve as stops to limit the upward movement of the rod and thus prevent the disk from being carried upwardly to interfere with the link 12.
In the practical use of my improved antifraud bottle, when it is desired to open the same, the actuating rod 16 is turned so that the screw portion thereof is advanced which obviously forces the disk against the flared portion l and also tends to raise the cap 8 that is anchored by the arms 11 and 11. This movement results in the flared portion 4 being broken along the scoring thereof and thus breaks ott the head of the bottle that is formed with the manufacturers advertisement. The contents of the bottle are then removed in the customary way but as the remaining portion of said bottle is mutilated and bears no manufacturers name or the like, it manifestly cannot be traudently reused as containing the original manufacturers product.
It will be noted that the cap and the bottle-breaking mechanism are not injured by use and that they may be removed from. the broken head and conveniently applied to another bottle of the same construction.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim is:
1. The combination with a bottle formed in its mouth with a weakened portion, of means for permanently sealing said mouth, and means within the mouth for exerting a tension upon the wall of the bottle above and below the weakened portion.
2. The combination with a bottle formed in its mouth with a weakened portion, of a cap permanently secured to the mouth on one side of the weakened portion and means within the mouth bearing upon the cap and upon the wall of the bottle on the other side of the weakened portion and arranged to exert an outward tension thereon.
3. The combination with a bottle formed in its mouth with a weakened portion, of a cap permanently secured to the mouth on one side of the weakened portion and an actuating rod having a threaded connection with the cap and arranged to exert a tension on the same and on the weakened portion.
at. The combination with a bottle formed in its mouth with a weakened. portion, of a cap permanently secured to the mouth on one side of the weakened portion, an actuating rod having a threaded connection with the cap, and means bearing upon the wall of the bottle on the other side of the weakened portion and arranged to limit the inward.
outward tension on the cap and on the weakened portion of the mouth.
5. The combination with a bottle formed in its mouth with a weakened portion, of a, cap permanently secured to the mouth above the weakened portion, an actuating rod ha ving a threaded connection with the cap at one end, and a disk swiveled to the other end of the rod and arranged to bear against the wall of the bottle 011 the other side ot the weakened portion and to limit the inward movement of the rod.
(3. The combination with a bottle formed in its mouth with an annular grom e, ot a cap bearing upon the wall. of the bottle above the groove and formed with depending lugs, arms pivotally connected at one end to the lugs and having their other or free ends outwardly disposed and a spring-pressed bar secured to one of said arms and bearing against the other whereby to swing the arms outwardly and hold the free ends thereof in engagement with the groove.
7. The combination with a bottle formed in its mouth with an annular groove, of a cap bearing upon the wall of the bottle above the groove and formed with depending lug", arms pivotally connected at one end, to the lugs and having their other or free ends outwardly disposed, one of said arms being formed with longitudinal slot, a bar hinged at one end to the other arm and slidingly mounted at its other end in the slot, and a leaf spring secured to the latter arm and to the bar and arranged to swing the bar downwardly in the slot whereby to swing the arms outwardly and the free ends thereof into engagement with the groove.
8. The combination with a. bottle formed in its mouth with an annular groove and below said groove with a weakened portion, of a cap mounted in the mouth above the groove, an actuating rod having a screw connection with the cap and adapted to exert an upward tension on the weakened portion, said cap being formed with depending lugs, arms pivotally connected at one end to the lugs and having their other or free ends outwardly disposed, a link bar encircling the actuating rod and hinged to one arm, said bar having a sliding connection with the other arm and being arranged to swing the arms outwardly and the free ends thereof into engagement with the groo\ 'e.
9. The combination with a bottle itormed in its mouth with an annular groove and below said groove with a weakened portion, of: a cap mounted in. the mouth above the groove, an actuating rod having a screw connection at one end with the cap, a disk swiveled to the other end of the rod and arranged to bear against the wall of the bottle below the weakened portion, and to limit the inward movement of the red, the cap being movement of the rod whereby to exert an 1 formed with depending lugs, arms pivotally connected to the lugs, a spring-actuated link In testimony whereof I affix my signature bar encircling the actuating rod above the in presence of two Witnesses.
disk and arran 'ed to SWiH the arms outwardly into engagement with the groove, JACOB KINSEL' and means for limiting the upward move- Witnesses: ment of the rod as and for the purpose set ANNIE KINSEL, forth. MABEL KINsEL.
