*heconstruction of capsules intended to con-- ases and having for their' compressed co to reduce t e cost price of these capsoles and render their action more certain. The ca sules in question are more particularly ti ose known as valve capsules, that I say rechargeable capsules which comprise two distinct principal parts, the receptacle properly so-called and the fitting containing the valve.

Hitherto the body of the receptacle of.

these capsules has been formed from a metal -the extremity constituting the bottom lg closed by a 5})80181. rivet forming a propriate mater al.

contracted "for the reception The other extremity is of the valve arranged in a littin screwed upon a screwb bu'rrmg over 1n the threaded rod fire orifice oi the receptac e.

The improvements which form the ob'ect the present t is special rivet and the screw-threaded rod employed in forming the capsules referred to above in the arrangement of the valve in such a manner to leave the whole of the internal space free for the gas.

The description is given with reference to the accompanying drawing in which Figures 1 and 2'show on a large scale in vertical section and external elevation a capsule in accordance with the invention.

The receptacle (1 of this capsule, which be of any desired capacity, is formed by series of pressing 0 erations, from sheet steel of appropriate t for withstanding the pressure of the gases. These operations are effected in such a manas to leave a suilicicnt thickness of metal at the neck or restricted portion of the 'reeentacle for forming on the edge of the neck a crew-thread l) and a heads comprising intern-ally a chainfer 0 The receptacle it thus formed isadapted for the reception of the cint by compressing a washer of apinvention have for t eir' e necial object to permit of dispensing withv "ckness. and quality gases. When the joint washer e sharp angle of the edges said washer and thereby the outer edges of the ded in the interior of available for the gas may be reduced to lower-recess of the against the fiat Web w be lower recesses.

What I claim closure by reason of the ing in same, a
