STOPPERING DEVICE FOR BOTTLES AND THE LIKE, TO PREVENT FRAUDULENT REFILLING.
Specification of Letters Patent. Patented an 18, 19191..
Application filed August 21, 1908. Serial No. 4=49,660.
To all whom it may) concern:
Be it known that I, LA\VRENCE BLEW- Jones, a subject of the King of Great Brit ain and Ireland-residing at Cornhill, in the city of London, England, have invented Iniprovements Relating to Stopperiug Devices for Bottles and the Like to Prevent Fraudulent Refilling, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in bottle stoppering devices and relates especially to that type of stopper in which there is a nonrcturn valve, or similar means, to prevent the fraudulent refilling of bottles.
In the usual form of stopperiug devices which are adapted to prevent or render difficult the refilling of bottles or the like, it is found in practice that the valve which prevents the pouring in of liquid from the outside, has a tendency totilt in such a man ner that it will not easily return to its seating, unless the bottle is inclined upward at a certain angle. It being desirable that the valve should return to its seating as. quickly as possible to prevent the ingress of liquid, means, such as a ball 6r other convenient form of stop or impediment, are provided which, when the bottle is tilted in the act of pouring out liquid, falls down and rests against the lower part of the valve insuch a way that although. the liquid from the inside can press the said valve outward, immedi'ately the liquid from the inside stops flowing, the valve falls back automatically on to its seating.
It is not necessary that the stop should be of any particular form or of any special material, so long as there is a loose piece of metal, earthenware, composition or any other suitable material which is free to move over the opposite face of the valve to that.
which rests upon the valve seating, such loose piece, by preference, falling to the.
upper part of the neck of a bottle provided with a stopperingdeuice to prevent fraudulent refilling according to this inventiom" a is the bottle 'neck; I; a cork seating forced therein; 0 the non-return valve which is shown formed with a. stem extending into the seating c; all a disk or plate resting on the top of the bottle neck; a a metal capsule'or sleeve which engages with the head or edge of the disk or plate d and securely holds the same in place; f a screwed stem extending through the disk or plate d and having, at its outer end, a cover plate f with cork lining f and, at its inner end, an enlargement f which, when screwed home bears upon the valve 0 and holds it upon its seat, while the cork lining f of the cover plate makes a tight joint with the rim d of the disk or plate d.,
9 1s the loose stop or abutment shown as a ball, which in the act of pouring assumes the position shown so that the valve 0, in-
stead of moving bodily from its seat, tilts about its lower edge and is thus ready to fall backquickly onto its seat assoon as pouringceases. As the ball prevents the valve moving bodily, the stem acts as a counterweight and hastensfits return to its seat.
For'wines, spirits and other'liquids of a delicate nature all,the parts or thestoppem ing device in contact with which the liquid is likely toeome may be made of porcelain except the valve seat which should then be of cork.
. It isto be noted that,in all cases,thc relative proportions of the valve, the 'ball and the space in the bottleneck in which they are located are such that the ball can only touch the valve near its edge andthat the ball cani not possibly pass beyond the edge of thevalve. The proper cooperation of the ball and valve is thus insured.
What I claim i's:
.1. In a bottle stoppering device, the combinatidn of a seating within the bottle neck,
a non-return-valve adapted to seat thereon,
a disk secured upon the bottle-.mouth and formed with apertures for the escape of liquid and inlet of air, a longitudinally movable ,but irremovable .stem extending through said disk and adapted to make direct contact with said valvewhen moved inward, and a loose step located between the valve and the disk, substantially as described. I v
| 2. In a bottle stoppering device, the combination of a seatingwithin the bottle neck,
a non-return valve adapted to seat thereon and provided with a stem extending into the valve seat, 2 disk secured upon the bottle mouth and formed with apertures for the escape of liquid and inlet 01 air, a longitudinuil movable but irreniovable stem extending through said disk and adapted to make direct Contact with said alve when moved inward, and 3. loose step located between the valve and the disk, substantially as described.
In 1: bottle stoppering device, the combination of a seating within the bottle neck, 21 non-return valve adapted to seat thereon, a disk secured upon the bottle mouth and formed with apertures for the escape of liquid and inlet of air, a longitudinally movable but irremovahle stem extending through said disk and adapted to make di rect Contact with said alve when moved inward. :1 never plate varried by the outer part of said elem and adapted in make :1 right joint with said. disk, and a lease hul adapted to eheek forward movement of the loiver part of the valve, substantially as described.
Signed at London England this eleventh day of August 1908.
