' POUBING SPOUT.
v Application filed June 6,
This invention relates in general to spout and nozzle cans, and has more particular reference to the provision of a. spout adapted to embrace the nozzle or pouring neck and be moved from a position protruding over the side of the can to a position within the periphery of its top wall.
A principal object of the invention is the provision of a spout which may be read ly arranged in pouring position and whlch,
when so arranged, may be rendered substantially non-leaking so that the material pouring from the nozzle across the spout cannot run down and be distributed over the top of the can.
The invention has for a further important object the provision of a spout of this character and of sheet metal, which may be cheaply constructed and assembled with the can itself, and which will be readily removable. The invention contemplates in thisregard a spout consisting merely of a sheet of metal given a spout formation with a hole for receiving the nozzle, the construction of the parts being such that the complete assembling may be accomplished by pressing the-spout down by hand over the nozzle.-
The invention has for a purpose also the provision of a spout. the parts ofwhich are so constructed and arranged that the spouts may be supplied to the packer separate from the nozzle and be positioned by him in place thus effecting economy of packaging the cans by the can manufacturer.
Numerous other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent as it. is better understood from the following description, which, takenin connection with the accompanyingdrawings, discloses a preferred embodiment thereof.
Referring to the drawings,
Figure 1 is a top plan view of a can embodying my present invention; and
Fig. 2 is a partial side elevation and partial section oft-he same.
For the purpose of illustrating my invention I have shown on the drawing a can 11 of any usual or preferred construction having a top wall 12 provided with a nozzle receivin opening 13. About this opening is provi ed an upstanding flange 14 which is embraced in a crimped seam 15 by the edge of the nozzle. This nozzle comprises in the theusual cap being indicated at 23.
1921. Serial No. 475,329.
present instance a neck having an upper threaded part 16 and a lower tapered or conical part 17 from which the threads are absent. Beneath the tapered part1? is a horizontally extending flange 18 which terminates inthe edge seamed at 15. The spout comprises a sheet of metal formed into the pouring mouth 19 and provided with an opening 21 adapted, to fit down on the tapered neck portion 17. The spout may, if desired, be provided with a short flange The spout is adapted to be pressed down into' firm engagement with the tapered part of the neck and by reason of this taper produces a tight fit so that leakage down around the nozzle is reduced to a minimum if not entirely eliminated. i
The upstanding-seam15 provides a valley or depression between itself and the nozzle proper in which any small amount of material leaking through may be confined.= The spout may be readilyrotated' to a pouring position by moving it up along the taper slightly and when in pouring position pressed down therealong.
It is thought that the invention and many of its attendant advantages will be under- I stood from the foregoing description, and it will be apparent that various changes may be made in the form, construction and arrangement of the parts without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention or sacrificing all of itsmaterial advantages, the form hereinbefore described being merely a preferred embodiment thereof.
I claim: 9
1. Ina can, the combination .of a sheet metal nozzle having a screw-threaded portion and below the same a tapered spoutsupporting portion, a spout adjustable and having anaperture of a size to wedge tl1ereon, and a cap screwed 011 said nozzle and constructed to engage said spout and force it on said tapered portion- 2. In a can, the combination of a sheet metal nozzle having a screw-threaded portionand below the same a tapered spout-sup porting portion, and a spout having a flange extendmg parallel with the nozzle and ha'v ing an aperture of. a size to wedge on and fit tightly along said tapered portion after W adjustment thereon,
3. A can, comprising a body, a nozzle havper of said neck, said spout having an apering a tapered neck and secured to the body ture of a size to wedge on said taper and bein a seam'extending up and providing a deing adapted to be moved up to a free posi-, 1
