ADOLPH LA ROSE, 0F NEW YORK, 1\T. Y., ASSIGNOR TO LA ROSE HAIR COMPOUND MANU'- FACTURING COMPANY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
NON-REFILLABLE BOTTLE.
To all 'whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ADOLPH LA ROSE, a subject of the King of Great Britain, and a resident of the city of New York, borough of Manhattan, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and Tmproved Non-Refillable Bottle, of which the following is a full, clear, and eXact description.
My invention relates to non-refillable bottles, my more especial purpose being to provide an improved construction whereby the securing of the bottle against refilling is greatly increased.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 is a fragmentary section through the neck of a bottle made in accordance with my invention, the parts fitting into the neck being shown in elevation; Fig. 2 is a central section through the neck and various mechanical parts fitting thereinto, this view showing the balls serving as valves as occupying their respective normal positions; Fig. 3 is a section somewhat similar to Fig. 2, but showing the bottle as inverted for the purpose of discharging its contents, the balls in this instance occupying their abnormal positions for allowing the contents of the 'bottle to escape; Fig. 4 is an elevation of the central tubular stem and upper valve seat through which the contents of the bottle are discharged; Fig. 5 is an inverted view of the structure shown in Fig. 4, and discloses more particularly the shape of the upper valve seat; Fig. 6 is an elevation of the valve casing carried centrally within the bottle neck; Fig. 7 is a horizontal section through the valve casing shown in Fig. 6 and is taken upon the line 7 7 in said figure, looking in direction of the arrows; Fig. 8 is a plan view of the glass stopper to be secured permanently to the bottle after the' latter is filled; and Fig. 9 is a front elevation of the glass stopper shown in Fig. 8.
In order to describe my invention I will refer briefly to the various structural parts comprising the non-refillable bottle. The bottle 10 is provided with a neck 11 having an enlarged portion 12, the latter having an annular head 18. A glass stopper 14 is provided with a flange 15 integral with it and Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed May 21, 1908, Serial No. 434,089. Renewed November 9, 1909.
Patented Dec. 14, 1909.
Serial No. 527,074.
is further provided with an annular channel 16, as will be understood from Fig. 9. Merging into this channel is a straight channel 17 having generally a semicylindrical form and terminating in a portion 18 which extends through the fiange 15. The stopper 14 is provided with a central bore 18a, as shown in Fig. 8. A sleeve 19 is provided with a threaded portion 20 and with a fiange 21. Connected integrally with the sleeve 19 and the fiange 21 is a tubular stem 22 provided with a threaded portion 23, as will be understood from Fig. 4. A valve casing 24 is threaded internally and adapted to be secured to the lower end of the sleeve 19. This valve casing is provided at its lower end with an opening 25, and is further provided with a ring 26 having lugs 27 disposed radially around the opening 25, these lugs and the bottom of the valve casing 24 together constituting a valve seat. The sleeve 19 is provided with lugs 2S eX- tending internally thereof, as will be understood from Fig. 5. The tubular stem 22 is provided with a longitudinal channel 29 extending axially therethrough. Two balls 30, 31, which are made of non-corrosive metal, or of iron or steel plated with a noncorrosive metal, are mounted loosely within the valve casing 24, the ball 30 being encircled by the lugs 27, and the ball 31 being in an upper and larger portion of the casing, as will be understood from Fig. 2. The portion of the casing 24 intermediate the upper and lower valve seats, tapers in thickness. This is to give the inner surface of the casing a slant, so as to prevent the ball 31 from rolling too early as the bottle is tilted. A number of balls 82, smaller than the balls 30, 31, but otherwise similar thereto, are used for holding the stopper 14 within the neck, as described hereinafter. A cap 34 is threaded internally and adapted to fit upon the threaded portion 23 of the stem 22. This cap is provided with a milled edge 35 and minute openings 86 for permitting the escape of a liquid therethrough. An annular band 37 of cork is made of proper size to fit neatly upon the sleeve 19 and within the bottle neck 11.
The parts are assembled as follows: The balls 30, 31, are placed within the valve casing 24, the ball 30 being underneath, as .will be understood from Fig. 2, and the valve casing is then screwed upon the lower end of the sleeve 19. Before doing this, however, the annular band of cork is slipped over the sleeve 19. lVhen, therefore, the valve casino` 24C is screwed tightly upon the sleeve 19, the band 37 of cork is compressed a little. The glass stopper 14, which has a general annular form, is next slipped over the stem 22 and the cap 31 is screwed upon the upper end of the stem 22. The composite structure thus completed, is now inserted within the bottle neck, the cork band 37 being compressed owing to the shape of the bottle neck, as will be understood from Fig. 1. The annular groove 16 (see Fig. 9) of the stopper 1-1 being brought into registry with the bead 13, the balls 39. are separately dropped through the opening 1S and the channel 17. The bott-le is now inclined 0r tilted so that the balls run around within the channel 1G and the bead 13, any number of balls being inserted. A filling 38 in plastic form, is next forced into the channel 17 and as 'ar as is practical into the annular groove 16 so as to secure the balls 32 firmly in position and effectively prevent the stopper 14 from being displaced relatively to the bottle neck. The device is now ready for use. The operator inverts the bottle in order to discharge its contents, and may either remove the cap 31 or not, as desired. The liquid linds its way out around the balls 30, 31, see Fig. 3, as it has a clear open passage for this purpose. lVhen, however, the bottle is placed in its normal erect position, as indicated in Figs. 1 and 2, both balls 30 and 31 effectively seal the bottle and prevent the entrance thereinto of any liquid.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Fatent,-
In a non-relillable bottle, the combination of a bottle neck, an annular stopper for engaging said bottle neck, said annular stopper being provided vwith a channel extending around it, a plurality of spherical bodies disposed partially within said channel and partially within said bottle neck, a tubular stem fitted into said annular stopper and provided with a flange engaging the same,
said tubular stem being provided with lugs,l
a casing mounted upon said tubular stem and provided with lugs, and also provided with a seat, a ball mounted loosely within said casing and adapted to engage said firstnientioned lugs, so as to permit a liquid to pass said ball when the bottle is inverted, and a ball of smaller diameter mounted loosely within said casing and adapted to engage said seat when the bottle is upright,
said casing having an internal surface which is substantially conical and disposed intermediate said seat and said first-mentioned lugs.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
