MILK-BOTTLE SAFETY-REGEPTACLE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 5,1913.
Application filed February 24, 1913, Serial No. 750,356.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, GEORGE L. WACHTER,
a citizen of the United States, residing at St.
Louis, State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Milk- Bottle Safety-Receptacles, of which the following is'a full, clear, and exact description,
' reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
My invention has relation to improvements in milk-bottle safety receptacles; and: it consists in the novel details of construction more fully set forth in the specification 1 and pointed out in the claims. In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective of the receptacle with dooropen; Fig. 2 is a horizontal section thereof on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1, with door. however, closed; Fig. 3' is a vertical longitudinal section on the line 33 of Fig. 2; and Fig. 4: is a transverse vertical section on the line 44 of Fig. 2.
- The object of my invention is to provide a receptacle for a full and an empty milkbottle, which will permit the'milk-man tO' abstract the empty bottle only after insertion of a full bottle of milk into the receptacle; one which will prevent the abstraction of the full bottle by unauthorized per-- sons; one which is simple, cheap, reliable, and one possessing further and other ad-" vantages better apparent from a detailed description of the invention which is as follows:
Referring-to the drawings, :C represents a cabinet of any convenient design, divided" into contiguous compartments (1, =1), by a partition wall 1'. The compartment a is provided with a sliding bottom or gate 2 "supported on ledges 3, 3,and adapted to be,
withdrawn or pulled outwardly from the side of the compartment, said bottom being provided with an outer marginal projecting bead etserving as a finger-hold-by which it may be readily manipulated. The inneredge of the bottom when shoved inwardly its full extent engages the *wall 1, the inner corner of the bottom being provided with a tongue or extension 5 whichis free to pass through an opening provided therefor inthe wall 1 and pass into the compartment 6, the tongue being provided with a slit-s for a purpose presently to appear.
Pivoted at the base of the wall 1 in the compartment 7) is a lever 6, whose center of gravity is to the rear of the pivotal axis of then locks the door.
the lever so as to cause the rear arm of the lever to normally drop, the efl'ect being the prevents the bottle or other article inserted I into the compartment .6 from engaging said lever arm when the bottle settles to its low- .est position after being released.
Hinged at the base of the wall 1 in the compartment 1) is a. gate 9 whose free edge is provided with an upturned ledge or flange 1O bearing against the outer side wall of the compartment when the gate is closed or dropped to its lowest position. The flange 10 is connected with the gate proper by a rib 11 provided with an inclined .guidlng edge e as shown.
The bases of the fronts of the compartments are provided with strips 12, 12, extending a suitable distance above the bottom of the'receptacle, the openin s to the compartments above said strips ei'ng adapted to be closed by a door D, hinged to the side wall of the receptacle, the door carrying a lock operated by a'key (not shown) the bolt 'of the lock passinginto a keeper 13 on the opposite side wall of the casing. The door has in addition a knob 14 by which it may .be manipulated.
The front arm of the lever 6 terminates in a laterally deflected lug 0r offset 15 on which the full milk-bottle inserted into the compartment 6 settles when released, the.
fullbottle being here designated by the reference letter B and the empty one by B.
Theoperation of the device may be de-L locks and opens the door D and deposits the empty bottle B in the compartment 0. and When the milk-man makes his delivery he inserts the full bottle B of milk past the hinged bottom or gate 9, the gate readily opening or oscillating inwardly (Fig. '3), the bottle being pushed upward well into the compartment b, after whichthe milk-man releases the bottle, at
the same time withdrawing his hand from the compartment and out past the gate 9. The gate drops to its closed position with the flange 10 thereof bearing against the outer side wall of the compartment. The bottle as it settles down on the gate thus closed, strikes the inclined edge e of the I pulls it out (from the side of the receptacle) from under the empty bottle B deposited therein by the housewife, and the bottle drops out of its compartment into the other hand of the milkman. He then pushes back the slide 2, the full bottle B being still in the compartment 1). When the housewife desires the full bottle she unlocks and opens the door D and removes the bottle through the front opening of the compartment b. Once the full bottle is deposited in the com partment b, it can not be abstracted through the bottom of said compartment by a raising of the hinged gate 9, because with-only a slight upward oscillation of said gate the flange 10 will engage the side of the bottle driving the same against the partition wall 1, and preventing a free upward or vertical movement of the bottle which is the only condition under which the gate '9 will open. Of course, when the compartment b is empty the full bottle is freely nsertible into it by the milk-man because there is nothing to obstruct the free inward oscillation of the gate; but once a bottle is deposited over the gate the latter can not be opened sufiiciently.
to permit abstraction of the bottle. This can only be done by one who has thekey to the receptacle. When the full bottle B has been removed, the lever 6 is released and the finger 7 .thereof again drops into engagement with the slot 8 of the tongue 5 of the slide 2, and the latter is again locked against unauthorized withdrawal. It is thus in position to receive an empty bottle which can not be abstracted until a full bottle is deposited by the milk-man, in thecadjacent compartment 6, such deposit having the effect of releasing the slide from the locking lever 6. The. de ice thus insures against possible stealth of either a full or empty milk-bottle; the milk-man can not get the empty bottle until he has delivered a full one to his customer, and the empty one is always handy for him when he is ready to deliver the full bottle.
The receptacle may be mounted in any convenient manner just outside the kitchendoor and is a great labor saver to the housewife, the receptacle being always in readiness to receive the empty milk-bottle.
Of course, it is not to be understood that the device is to be restricted in its application to milk-bottles, as it may be employed for a variety of kindred purposes, or operate on different character of packages orcontents.
In lieu of the slide 2 any equivalent thereof may of course be substituted, for supporting the empty bottle.
Having described my invention, what I claim is:
1; A safety receptacle provided with two compartments, a movable supporting member operating in connection with one of the compartments for holding the contents thereof against removal, and means in the other compartment for locking said member against movement while said last compartment is empty.
