BOTTLE-HOLDER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 5, 1917.
. Application filed July 22, 1916. Serial No. 110,725.
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LUnvIK SoLnM, a citizen of the United States, residing at Duluth, in the county of St. Louis and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bottle-Holders, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to an improved bottle holder and has for its primary object to provide a very simple and serviceable device for holding an infants nursing bottle, and prevent the same from being dropped from the crib or carriage by movement of the infant and thereby broken.
It is another object of the invention to provide a device for the above purpose which is so constructed that the bottle may be supported upon the crib blanket or cover orupon the edge of the crib in a convenient position without necessitating the use of pillows or other objects in order to support the bottle in the proper position.
It is a more specific object of the invention to provide a bottleholder for the above purpose constructed of'a single length of resilient wire which is exceedingly durable and may be manufactured at a comparatively small cost.
With the above and other objects in View, my invention consists in the novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter more fully described, claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view'illustrating one embodiment of my invention with a bottle arranged therein;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged top plan view;
Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing a slightly modified form of the device.
Referring in detail to the drawing and more particularly to Figs. 1 and 2 thereof, 5 designates the resilient wire from which the holder is constructed. This wire is bent intermediate of its ends to provide spaced supporting'feet 6. From said feet the wire is extended upwardly and then bent upon itself to form inwardly curved spaced clamping arms 7. From the arms 7 the wire is extended to provide divergent portions 8 From the spaced ends of the portions 8 of the wire, the same is laterally extended outwardly, as at 9 and at the outer ends of the portions 9 the wire is bent to form the hooks 10 and then returned upon itself in parallel relat1on to the portions 9, as at 11.
The portions 11 of the wire are extended past each other and then curved upwardly and inwardly to provide the opposed laterally bowed clamping arms 13. From these clamping arms the wire is extended longitudinally and curved downwardly, as shown in Fig. 1. The end portions 12 of the wire extend inwardly in parallel relation to each other from said downwardly extended portions and have their extremities tightly coiled around the parallel lapping portions of the wire, as shown at 14.
From the above description, it will be seen that the wire holder is very simply constructed and is also strong and durable. The bottle indicated at B is mounted upon the holder by inserting the neck portion thereof between the clamping arms 7 which yieldably engage upon opposite sides of the bottle neck. The larger end or bottom of the bottle is forced downwardly between the outwardly bowed arms 10 and clampingly engaged thereby, the bottle resting upon and being supported by the diverging wire portions 8 and the portions 12. The laterally extending arms 9 and 11 and the hooks 10 which connect said arms, serve to retain the holder in its set position, as the hooks will readily engage and hold in the bedding or covering in the crib or carriage. These hooks may, however, be also engaged over the edge of the crib or any other convenient place so as to support the botttle at the desired angle. The feet 6 prevent the holder from shifting backwardly or away from the infant so that the nipple will remain in an easily accessible position.
In Fig. 3 of the drawing, I have shown a slightly modified construction wherein the holder is formed of sheet metal and includes a longitudinally tapering base plate 15 having a downwardly turned hook 16 formed on one end and an upwardly projecting hook 17 on its other end. A transversely disposed clamping strip 18 is soldered or otherwise securely fixed to the base plate 15 at one end thereof to fit the neck of the bottle and a similar clamping strip 19 is secured upon the plate 13 adjacent its opposite end for clamping engagement around the body of the bottle. A relatively long strip 20 is secured to the under side of the plate 15, immediately below the clamping strip 19 and has hooked terminals 21 which serve a similar purpose to the hooks 10 of the wire holder above described. In either construction of the device, the bottle can be very easily and quickly arranged in the holder or removed therefrom and the several clamping arms will securely retain the bottle in a fixed position against accidental displacement.
From the foregoing description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, the construction, manner of use and several advantages of my invention will be clearly and fully understood. The device has been found highly serviceable and convenient in practical use and results in considerable economy as it obviates to a large extent, the accidental breakage of bottles. In view of the extreme simplicity of the holder, it will also be appreciated that the same can be manufactured at very small cost.
While I have shown and described the preferred construction and arrangement of the several features of the device, it will be understood that'the device is susceptible of considerable modification and I therefore reserve the privilege of adopting all such legitimate changes as may be fairly embodied within the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed;
Having thus described this invention, what is claimed is 1. A bottle holder comprising a base including portions extending at right angles to each other in intersecting relation, one of such portions terminating at its opposite ends in downwardly projecting supporting feet and the other base portion having a downwardly projecting support formed on one 'end thereof, the opposite end of the latter portion of the base being upwardly turned for engagement against the bottom of a bottle, spaced, bowed clamping arms disposed upon the first named base portion for engagement with the bottle, and clamping means on the latter base portion for engagement with the neck of the bottle.
2. A bottle holder of the character described constructed from a single length of resilient wire bent to provide supporting feet and bowed clamping arms projecting above the supporting feet, said wire being extended from the arms in divergent relation and then laterally and outwardly to provide transverse extensions having hooks formed on their outer ends, said wire being returned from said hooks in parallel relation to said lateral. extensions, said returned portions being extended past each other in lapping engagement, and the end portions of the wirebeing extended from such returned portions and bent to form bowed clamping arms for engagement upon the body of the bottle, the terminals of the wire being tightly coiled around the lapped inner ends of the returned portions. v
In testimony whereof I hereunto aflix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
