SQUEEZER..
Specification of LettersBatent. Patented Mali, 22, 1910.
Application filed October 25, 1396. ISerial No. 340,452.
To all whom 'it ma concemf Be it known tiat I, RAYMOND B. GrIL-l y is a full, clear, and exact description.
The invention relates to devices commonly known as lemon-squeezers.
The invention designs to providesqueezers or presses of thatv type in which the two compressing members are pivotally connect l ed and which can be operated by hand with improved means for. closing the cup during the squeezm operation, and also to provide a squeezer o improved construction.
'llhe invention consists in the several novel features herelnafter described, and more l particularly defined by claims at the conclusion hereof.
In the drawings: Figure 1V is a perspective of the improved squeezer which is shown in opc'n positlon, c', e., to receive a lemon or other article. Fig. 2 is a central longitudinal section of the squeezerin closed position and showing also the plunger and cover by dotted lines in an intermediate position. Fig. 3 is a plan of the plunger and Fig. 4 is a plan of the cover;
The device comprises two members A and B which are pivotally connected together atV one end thereof by a pin 10. Members A and B are provided respectively with integrally formed handles a and b. Member A is also provided with al ring-like portion a in which is held, by a screw ll, a removable cup l2. Member B is provided with a plunger C rigidly secured thereto by a screw 13 which clamps the plunger against one face of member A, and thus the plunger is caused to swing bodily about the pivotal connectlon between the members. The plunger C comprises a lower expanded portion c and a stem formed of ribsc' which extend between the enlarged lower portion and that portion of the member' B to which the plunger is secured. The plunger and stem are integrally formed and usually formed of non-corrosive material, such as aluminum, enameled ware or china. A cover D also of non-corrosive material is adapted to close the cup before o1' about the time the plunger is moved into position` to become Aoperative in the cup. This cup is provided with an opening d corresponding substantially in shape to the stem ofthe plunger C and. is substantially l secured against lateral movement and rotation with respect to the cup by such connection.
In practice it is customary when ppening the squeezer for the purpose of inserting a lemon or. other larticle into the cup, to shift member B so the cover will be inverted.
Forthe purpose of assuring the drop of the cover into proper position with respect to the cup, the cover 1s extended as at CZ to form abutments which engage ears 14 of member A while member B is being swung into closed position. A loose-connection is necessary between the cover and the plunger to permltthe plunger to swing about pivot 10 and to permit the plunger stem to move angularly through the cover after the cover has fallen onto the cup. These abutments restrict the movement of the cover and allow the cover to move longitudinally slightly to accommodate the cover during the squeezing operation and after the cover has closed the cup. Without an abutment for restricting the movement of the cover with respect to the plunger-member it would be possible for the cup which is loosely connected to the plunger and member B to become disarranged and caught between the members so it would become broken. The stem c passes loosely through the cover and the cover is free to play under restriction ofv the body of member A, abutment cl and the plunger C to form a lost-motion connection which permits the .cover to fall onto the cup as soon as the squeezingl operation begins and to allow the plunger to be forced into the cup. When the members are in closed position, shown in' Fig. 2, and the handles of the'members are held together, the cover will be held snugly against the top of the cover and the eX- pressed juice can be poured out of the cup through spout 15.
Manifestly the invention provides a simple construction of hand-squeezer which comprises a cover for closing the cup as soon as the squeezing operation is begun and which is operated directly by a plunger rigidly secured to one of the members. The construction is lsimple and the device can be equippedwith the cover with slight additional cost. The particular construction is `advantageous because the plunger by which the cover is operated, is rigidly secured to one of the pivotally connected members and 45 .members pivotally connected to each other,`
plunger swinging with one of the members.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure ters Patent, is:
l. In a squeezer, the combination of two members pivotally connected together, a cup connected to one of said members, a plunger rigidly connected to the other member, a cover for the cup, operated and carried by the pivoted plunger-member, anda lost-motion connection between the cover and the plunger, for permitting the plunger to move angularly with respect to the cover.
2. In a squeezer, the combination of two members pivoted to each other, each of which is provided with a handle and respectively provided with a cup and plunger, a plungerstem for securing ythe plunger to one of the members, a cover for said cup, operated and carried by the pivoted plunger-member, .and
by Ileta lost-motion connectionbetween` the l`cover and the plunger, for permitting the plunger.
to move angulaa'ly with respect to the cover. 3. In a squeezer, the combination of two members pivoted to each other, each of which is provided with a handle and respectively provided with a cup, and a plunger, a stem by which the plunger 1s secured to move with the member to which it is connected a cover for said cup operated bythe plunger member and having a lost-motionconnection therewith, and an abutment for restricting movement'for the inner portion of the id.
4. In a squeezer, the combination of two members pivotally connected to eachother, a cup connected tooneof the members, a plunger, a stem rigidly secured to the other member and to which said plunger is secured and a cover forv closin 'said cup and fitting loosely around sai Astem and operated by the plunger and an abutment for restricting the movement of the inner portion of the lid.
5. 4In a squeezer, the combination of two a cup connected to one of the' members, a
the
lsecured to the other member, and a cover having a lost motion connection with' the plunger-member for permitting the plungerthemcover. y
7.` In a squeezer, the combination df two` :members pivotally connected to each other, each having a'handle secured thereto, Ya cup connected to one of the members, a. plunger, a plunger-stem rigidly ,secured to the other member, and a cover for closing the cup and member to move' angularly with respect to fitting loosely around said stem for permit- 5 ting the stem to move angularly through the cover.
8. In a squeezer, the'combination of two n members pivotally connected to each other, each having a handle secured thereto, a cup connected to one of the members, a plunger,
aA ribbed stemrigidly securedv to the other e member and to which the plunger. is'secured., anda cover for closing the cup and fitting loosely'uround said stem Afor permitting Vthe stem to move angularly through the cover.
.9. In a squeezer, the combination of two members pivotally connected to each other, a vcup connected to one -of said members, a plunger,- a stem'to which said plunger is secured and secured to the'k other member, and a cover having an openin therein through which said stem is'extende said cover being free to move laterally around the vstem and longitudinally along'the stem. y l
