Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov, 4, 1919.
Application filed March 6, 1917, Serial No. 152,654. Renewed July 21, 1919. Serial No. 312,270,
the county of Suffolk and State of Massa- `chusetts, respectively, have invented new and `useful Improvements in Non-Rellable Bottles, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to bottles and jars, and more especially to bottle valveswhich are controlled by weight; and the object of the same is to produce a non-refillable bottle-whose valve is held positively upon its seat by a projection from the cork when the latter is in place.
A further obj ect is to produce a controller of this kind in which the valve casing is in two parts connected so that the valve may be inserted before they are connected and then the whole casing may be inserted in the bottle neck. l
Other objects will appear from the following specification, reference being had to the drawings wherein Figure 1 is a vertical section through this device with the neck of the bottle upright and the valve closed.
Fig. 2 is a similar section with the bottle inverted and the valve open, this view showing a slight modification as will be explained. j
Fig. 3 is a sectional detail of the two parts of the valve casing slightly separated, show ing their means of attachment with each other and the means by which the upper part is held within the neck.
Fig. 4 is a detail of the cork.
Referring to the drawings, the neck N of the bottle is formed as usual excepting that at two or more points within its bore are spring plates 1, each having a tongue 2 projecting inward and downward for a purpose yet to appear. The cork C is also of ordinary construction, perhaps not so long as usual, excepting that it has inserted into it a pin 3 depending axially from its lower end' as seen in Fig. 4, and in order to hold this pin in place it may be headed at its upper end 4 within the body of the cork or attached thereto by any suitable means. This pin is also for a purpose yet to appear. The cork therefore forms a temporary closure for the neck N of an ordinary bottle which need not be illustrated, and it is the purpose of the beneath said cork, and to mount it within a valve casing in such way that the valve opens when the bottle is inverted and permits the pouring out of liquid, but closes when the bottle is stood upright or practically so and prevents the refilling of the bottle as has now become so desirable.
The lcasing may be of any appropriate metal, glass, or other material, and it may be desirable to surroundit entirely with a sleeve 5 of cork or the like as indicated in Fig. 2 but omitted in Fig. l-thus causing the entire valve casing to make a close [it within the bore of the neck. The upper part 1() of the casing (see Fig. 3) is internally threaded at 11 at its lower end above which it has an inwardly projecting shoulder 12 willich may be of one size completely around the bore of this part as indicated in Fig. 8 or may be rather narrow except at intervals which produce stops 13 as seen in Fig. l, for a purpose yet to appear; and above the shoulder or stops the bore is preferably contracted as shown at 14 to an opening 15 at its upper end through which the ,liquid is to be poured. Around the exterior init the tongues 2 to project therethrough and engage the notches 16.
The lower member 20 is externally threaded at 21 around its upper end to engage the internal threads 11 of the upper member, and outside of its threads 21 is a shoulder 22 to Contact with the lower end of said upper member when the parts are screwed together as seen in Fig. 1. The bore of this member is reduced in size toward its lower end and nally tapered to form a seat 23 for the weighted valve 24 which normally rests thereon, and at its lower end the valve has a projection or stem 25 leading downward through and slidably mounted in a guide 26 carried at the center of the spider 27 which is formed as a part of or secured to the lowerI end of the lower member 20 as seen. When the valve rests on the seat 23 the device is closed as seen in Fig. 1, and when the bottle is inverted the valve falls by weight off the seat and rests the device is openl When closed, it is obvious that no liquid can be poured into the bottle, and when open it is obvious that liquid within the bottle may be poured out as it finds its way through the spider, around the valve, past the stops 13, and out of the opening 15 of the upper member, to the mouth of the neck N. If the cork sleeve 5 be employed, it may continue entirely past both upper and lower members and 20 and have the openings 17 above referred to, or it might surround only one member. Its function is to make a tight fit between the member or members and the bore of the neck N as set forth above.
In the original assembly of parts as seen in Fig. 1, the bottle having first been filled, the two members are screwed together and inserted, and when the groove or notches 16 come opposite the tongues 2, the latter spring into them and prevent a removal of the members of the casing in a manner which will be clear. The bottle is now stood upright, and the valve 2i falls onto the seat 23. The cork C with its pin 3 is now forced into the mouthof the neck N, and the pin is passed down through the opening 15 in the upper member 10 until its tip rests on the valve 24 so that the latter is reliably and permanently held on its seat, no matter what position the bottle is caused to assume. Therefore the bottle may now be transported with perfect safety, and no part of the contents can escape under any circumstances. To decant the liquid, the consumer removes the cork C and with it of course withdraws the pin 3 whose tip therefore comes ofi the valve 2li. Now when he wants to pour some liquid from the bottle, he tips it as usual and the weight of the valve 24:
causes it to rise ofi' its seat and finally to drop to the position seen in Fig. 2, so that the liquid can flow out around the valve in the course -above described. On restoring the bottle to its original position, the weight drops back onto the seat, and prevents the refilling of the bottle or the pouring of any liquid thereinto; and therefore this device becomes a practical, serviceable, and yet inexpensive non-reiillable bottle of the type described,
What is claimed as new is A non-rellable bottle, including a twopart separable valve casing adapted to be secured in the neck of the bottle, said casing having a valve-receiving bore formed to provide an inlet of maximum width, restricted above the mouth to form a valve seat, enlarged above the valve seat and provided'in line with such enlargement with valve stops, and restricted above the valve stops to provide a discharge opening, a valve operable in said bore and shaped to coperate with the valve seat and having a fiat surface to engage the stops, a guide for the valve secured in the valve casing adjacent the inlet, a guide stem carried byv the valve and cooperating with said guide, a removable stopper for the bottle, and a pin depending from the stopper and extending through the discharge opening of the casing to bear on the fiat portion of the valve and hold the latter to its seat when the stopper is in place in the bottle.
In testimony whereof we afliX our signatures.
