This invention relates to dosh-remembers for receptacles and particularly to thoseclosures intended for closing the openings of bottles such as beverage bottles, ketchupbottles etc. s
i-The-closure member's commonly usedfor closing beverage bottles have certain disadvantages in that it is necessary to have a par- *ticular kind of tool to remove them.
The primary object otm'y invention" is thejprovrsion of an improved closure member or cap for bottles and'the like.
Another object-0f my invention is thepro- VlSlOnof improved closure members fol-"bother-with the application. of less force than is usual forthe performance of such an operation;
' orrr Other and further objects of my invention will be apparent, to thoseskilledin the art,- from a reading of-tlie completespecification,
- Referring" tothe drawing \vhereinl have illustrated an embodiment (if'my invention,
Fig. iris an enlargedelevation. of my invention applied to the mouth of a-bgttle.
I Fig, 2 isatop shown in- Fig. 1
plan. view of the invention Fig. 3 is a cross section Ion: the line 3-;3
- .-Fig. 4' is a cross I moved from thebottle by 'onexmethod;
The same reference characters refer to it the same or similar parts throughout the several =view's ofithe' drawing;
i The bottle, to which 'my'inventioni'is illustrated as being attached, is designated byv the numeral 10. Thebody portion of my closure member I h'ave designated by the 'mlelosuremember is similar to the closure numeral 11.1 The. -g'eneral. outline of thismember commonl'yused for beverage bot tl'es, 'itliavin'g acrimped flange 12. and. a.
corkor similar lining 13 to act as a sealing member. As in the-stru cture.eommonlyused for closing beverage and similar "bottles, the crimpede-edge 12 is caused to bind in. the.
elongated metallic loop. as a wire 15, the.
b'ight' being outside of the 'closure member as [shownin Figs. 1, 2 and 4. The ends of the loop ext-end f under the crimped edge of the closurefmember 12- and pass up over thefto'p of the sealing member 13 and down on the opposite edgeto be suitably secured to the crimped edge. AI suitable method of securing the ends is illustrated, wherein, the ends are bent around on the outsideofthe criu'ipededge 12 as shown in Figs. 1 and 4' ."In order-to provide a space for the: wire 15. 1 have provided two grooves 17 formed by struck-up portions 18 which extend across the top 11 of the body portion of the closure v "equal to the diameter of the wire. 1 lllea tion m applying the closure memmember, The depth of the groove is'made her to a: bottle toclose and seal the same issu'mlar to the 'act on'ofthe closure cap in common use except that the opening wire .15 is in placeas aromas-Fig.1: before the cap-,is applied. .When applied, the'crimped edge ist'orced inward'lyi'by any 'ivell known or suitable -ap pliance, .to be-heldb'y the wall ot the groove 14, thus forcing the sealing cork 13521gain'stthe top rim of the bottle to seal-the contents of the bottlefron the out- 'sldeair.
. .When it is desired to open the bottle, any i in the loop '15 as illustrated in .4 at 19 and theouter end lifted, with-the inner end instrument as a keyornail may. be inserted on thezside of the'closure memberoppo'site'; to the loop. Th'islifting action has-a double]. effect upon th'eclosure member. In the first: place. thereis an upwardjlift on'the edge of the closi'u'e-inembe'r, due to the lever action of the key on the loop. In additiontd this I straight lever'actionitheref is another action which takes place on the principle of a pul-f leygthe wire loop actingas the ropeor'eable and the edgeof .the-crimped portion as the pulley and cable action forces the 'capfiand bottl apart and separates the sealing memher-113 from the m ain body" of the closure member as'illustrated' in Fig. 4. I a
closure member from the bottle or other container necessitates only about half the usual effort as is re'quired'to remove the closure member in the structure in common use. While' I havedescnbed and shown one pulley. This is illustratedqinFig. 4. This .105 The action of the'wire in separating the Qform of my inventionil desire have it understood that I do not limit myself to the claim is 1. A closure device for bottles and the like, comprising a body portion having a top, a flange, a sealing member, a flexible elongated member in the form of aloop extending across and tree of the body portion between the top and the sealing member, the ends being secured at one side of the top adjacent the flange, the bight of the loop extending beyond 'and from the flange, the flange being ofsuflicientrigidityto permit of the loop toraise the cap from the top of the container, the loop sliding on'the contacting edge of the cover member flange and coaeting by pressure on the top of the container toraise the cap when the loop is lifted,
2. A closure device for. bottles and the like, comprising a body portion having a top, a flange, a sealing member, a flexible elongated member in the form of a loop extending across and free of the body portion between the top and the sealing member, the ends being bent up around the edge of the flange, the bight of the loop extending beyond and from the flange, the flange being of suflicient rigidity to permit of the loop to raise the cap from the top of the container, the loop sliding on the contacting edge of the cover member flange-and coacting by pressure on the top of the container toraise the cap when the loop is lifted.
3. A closure device for bottles and the like, comprising a body portion having a top, a flange, a sealing member, a flexibleielongated member in the form of aloop extendmg across and free of the body portion between the top and the sealing member, the ends being secured at one side of the top ad- 'jacent the flange, the bight pf the loop extending beyond and from the flange, the top beinggrooved thereacross, to receive the portion of the loop extending across the top, the
flange being of suflieientrigidity to permitot the loopto raise the cap from tlietop of thecontainer, the loop sliding on the contacting edge of the cover member flange and coaeting by pressure on the top of the container to raise the cap when the .loop is lifted.
