CAN COIVIPANY, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN, A CORPORATION OF NEW cart-Tor.

Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June '7', 191th To all whom "it may concern:
Be it known that I, Jnnvrs R. HARBECK, a citizen of the United States of America, residing in the city of Detroit and county of Vlayne, State of hiiiehigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Clan-Tops, oil? which the following is a speeitieation, reference being had therein to the aeeonipanying drawings.
The invention consists in. the construction or a can top and the means for opening and closing a discharge opening therein, such means comprising a slide on the underside oi the can top, having an integral projection extending shove the top, and adapted to extend over or be withdrawn from the lischurge-opening. i
The imsention further consists in the construetion and arrangement in combination of the various parts, as more fully hereinafter described and particularly pointed out in the claim.
in the drawings: Figure l is a top planview of a can top, embodying my invention; Fig. 2 is a section therethrough, taken on line m--zv of Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is a central longitudinal section therethrough; and Fig. t is a detached. perspective View of the slide.
A represents a can body and B the top thereof which is shown as provided with a marginal flange C embracing the side of the body and secured thereto in any desired manner.
The can here shown is of oval shape, such as is employed, for instance, as a tobaccocan.
in the top of the can I form a discharge opening I). I have shown this opening as being substantially semi-circular hut it may be of any desired configuration. It is adapted to be opened and closed by the head E of the slide 1*. This slide 1* with its head I make from a single piece of sheet metal of the desired shape, the body portion having parallel sides, so that it may be supported between guides. 11'; fits snugly against the under side of the head and is suppm'ted by formed by making a loop or bend in the metal. and then elosing the loop or bend so as to make a double shoulder or projection, extending at an angle to the face or body of the slide. This projection, as wilhbe shown by Fig. 3, extends up above the top and forms a means for actuating the slide back and forth, and also a stop to limit the inward and outward movement thereof.
The construction described is simple and strong, forms a good closure, and is economical to manufacture.
W'hat ll claim as my invention is:
The combination with a sheet metal can top provided with a discharge opening at one end and an elongated guide opening near the other end having parallel side edges, of guide flanges projecting downwardly and inwardly from the sides of the guide opening, a slide having a head portion underlying the cover and adapted to open and close the discharge opening therein, and a portion supported upon the flanges at the guide opening with the edges of said portion in close proximity to the donunvardly extending portions of said flanges, and a transverse fold in the portion of the slide lying within the guide opening, said fold extendingentirely across the slide and projecting above the top through the guide opening to form an operating shoulder.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
