JOHN B. WATSOI N', F BECKET, MASSACHUSETTS.
MILK-CAN.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 9, 1917.
Application filed June 4., 1914. Serial No. 843,013.
Be it known that I, JOHN B. WATSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Becket, in the county of Berkshire and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Milk- Cans, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a can, and is adapted more particularly for use as a re ceptacle for the transportation of milk.
The object of this invention is to provide a can that will eiiiciently exclude dust and other foreign matter from the interior of the same, thus obviating the likelihood of having the contents of the same becoming germ laden, as is the case in many instances with the ordinary milk can now in use.
Another object of this invention is the prodiiction of a. can that has a stopper member for insertion in the neck of the can and a cap for placement on the neck of the can, thus facilitating the excluding of foreignmatter from the interior of the can when the stopper member and the cap are.
positioned as above set forth.
.-A still further object of this invention is the production oi a device of the kind above described that is simple in construction, efficient in operation and consists of the minimum number of parts.
With these and other objects in view this invention consists in certain novel constructions and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a view in elevation of the improved cz'm with the stopper member and cover mounted thereon, the same together with the neck of the can being shown in vertical section.
Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the stopper member used with this device.
Referring to the parts by reference numerals, the body of the can is designated by having the ordinary handles or grips 11 mounted thereon at the usual place andin the usual manner. The-neck of the can is designated by the numeral 12 and has a reinforcing band 12' secured on the outer face thereof. It will be noted that the can in itself is of the usual shape and cosntruc tion and the improvement lies in the stop per and covering means for the neck of t e can.
Adapted. for insertion in the neck 12 is the' stopper 13 comprising a collar'14 that engages the inner face of the neck and a concave top portion 15. Spanning the concave portion 15 is a handle 16. By means of the concave top portion of the stopper 15 and the spanning handles 16, a device is formed that can beeasily withdrawn from the can, inasmuch as the fingers can pass under the handle 16 when the same is gripped. Around the top edge of the stopper member 13 is a head 17 that rests upon the upper edge of the 'neck to hold the stopper in a position as shown in Fig. 1.
A cover is provided for the can havin a convex top 18 and a collar 19, said colar approximately the same length as the neck of said can so as to rest upon the body of the can when positioned as shown in Fig. 1. At the meeting point of the convex top 18 and the collar 19 of the cover is a flange 20 that can be gripped to facilitate the removal of the cover from the can when it is necessary.
It will be seen from the foregoing description that a dust and other foreignmatter excluding means has been provided for a can. The stopper member 13, as'herebef ore set forth, can be easily placed within the neck of the can and also easily withdrawn. The head 17 provides a sealing means and also a means whereby the stopper is held in any desired position when inserted in the neck. The cover by means of having the collar 19 the same length as the neck of the can rests on the body ofthe can, and thereby prevents any foreign matter from gaining access under the cover. a
it is obvious that minor changes may be made in the form and construction of this.
invention, and it is not wished to confine the device to the structure herein shown,
but to cover all that will properly come within the scope of the appended claim:
, A can havlnga neck, a stopper for in-' disposed in the same plane as the upper In testimom' whm'ouf 1 :lmx my signaedge of said collar so as tonllow for the turn in prusunco of Lwo witnesses. placement of a cover of thg mlnlmum height 7 L Y on the neck of the can, sald cover having a OHN portion thereof'in. engagement with the body \Viten& es:
of the can to facilitate the exclusion of DAVID WATSON,
foreign matter from the can. AGNES M. Jouxsox.
