y. cwwxc ww Patented Nov. 10, 1936 UNITED STATES BOTTLE PROVIDED WITH COMBINED DRINKING AND MEASURING VESSEL Max Samuel, Cologne, Germany Application November 11, 1935, Serial No. 49,196 In Germany June 29, 1935 1 Claim.
Up to the present all known bottles which are combined with a drinking and measuring vessel have a series of drawbacks, which mainly are caused in that a special drinking and measuring vessel, made chiefly of metal, is removably fitted to the bottle by means of screw threads and by the use of special tightening or packing means made of cork or rubber. Besides the comparatively high price of these bottles the fastening and removing of the drinking vessel, is troublesome and a waste of time; the special tightening means made of cork or rubber afiects or spoils the taste of the liquid and renders a frequent and careful cleaning of the whole bottle necessary because residue of the liquid settles and dries in the hollow spaces which exist. Finally it is rather unpleasant to drink out of a vessel which is not made of glass or china.
All these disadvantages are fully eliminated by the present invention. The principal characteristic of the new bottle, provided with a combined drinking and measuring vessel, consists in that the bottle is closed by a hollow plug which is inserted into the conical neck of the bottle, the plug being made of glass or any other suitable rigid and transparent material, formed conically or tapered at both ends, but is provided with a closed bottom at one end only. This hollow plug therefore serves on the one hand as a tight closure for the bottle and on the other hand, after being reversed or removed entirely from the bottle as a drinking or measuring vessel. If one cone of the said plug is provided with two or more longitudinal grooves on the outside, the bottle, it correspondingly made smaller can be used as a drop bottle or a flask from which the liquid can be delivered in drops.
In Figs. 1-4 of the accompanying drawing the new bottle by way of example is illustrated in a constructional form showing a bottle from which the liquid can be delivered in drops for medical purposes.
In this drawing, Fig. 1 shows the closed bottle in side view, partly in cross section; Fig. 2 shows a cross section through the neck of the bottle with the hollow plug reversed, i. e. in the position of the bottle so that drops can be delivered; Fig. 3 shows a cross section through the neck of the bottle taken on the line AB of Fig. 2; and Fig. 4 shows a view of the hollow plug used as a drinking and measuring vessel.
The drawing shows a constructional form of the bottle a from which the liquid can issue in drops and which can be used in standing and in lying down position. The bottle has an obliquely inclined neck I), the flattened side wall of the bottle being in the upper part inclined upwardly, so that the residue of the liquid in a nearly emptied bottle collects in the neck so that the bottle can be emptied to the last drop by making use of a 5 syringe or a squirt. The inside of the bottle neck I) is smooth and of conical form and is adapted to be closed by means of a plug, which is made of glass or any other suitable hard and transparent material. The two ends ct and e of the plug are both of conical form. Further this hollow plug is closed by a bottom 7 at one end only. Whereas the surface of the cone d, which serves for the tight closing of the bottle, is quite smooth the other cone e, which in Fig. 1 is situated outside the bottle, is provided with two rills or grooves g and h (Fig. 2), which are opposite to each other, the rill or groove g being a little bigger than the rill or groove h. The cones d and e of the hollow plug are both ground in the bottle neck I).
For the purpose of issuing drops the plug is reinserted. as can be seen in Fig. 2, so that the cone e is situated in the bottle neck. The smaller rill or groove h, which is situated at the underside of the cone e, dispenses small drops, when the bottle is tilted, whereby the other and larger rill or groove g serves as a channel for the air entering the bottle. Vice versa, the rill it can form the air channel whilst the larger rill g dispenses larger drops. It is possible to dispense drops in any desired position of the plug and the bottle; it is only essential to hold the bottle so that in each case the required rill or groove for dispensing the drops is situated somewhere on the underside of the plug.
The hollow plug can also be used as a drinking or measuring vessel. When drinking the plug may remain in the bottle, especially in smaller bottles; the plug may also be used separate from the bottle just as easily and represents then a normal drinking vessel which can be held comfortably and can be placed on a table. If it is desired to use the hollow plug as a measuring vessel, said plug is provided with a suitable measuring scale, (Fig. 4). The bottom of the 4.5 hollow plug can obviously be arranged on the other end of said plug. The bottom may otherwise be situated inside. the hollow plug, as for instance in the middle, if two equally sized measuring vessels are required separated from each other, and the bottom may also be situated not at the middle, ii a larger and a smaller measuring vessel are required. 7
The invention may obviously be applied to all types and sizes of bottles. Instead of two rills or grooves for the purpose of dispensing the drops three or more may be provided on the cone 6.
The hollow plug forms a tight closing device in all cases, without making use of screws or special tightening means. The cost of the bottle is low and its use quite easy and convenient, as the plug has only to be taken out, reversed and reinserted. There are no places where dirt can settle and all parts are entirely made of glass so that the taste of the liquid does not remain in the bottle after use. In the form of a bottle for dispensing drops, the bottle possesses all the advantages of a perfect bottle for the purpose of dispensing an accurate number of drops of a liquid medicine, or a chemical fluid and so on.
If no rills or grooves for dispensing drops are required the conical part e of the plug may he formed cylindrically. If desired, the plug may be provided, between the two cones, with an appropriate handle (collar in the form of a flange, two projections and so on).
I claim:-
A bottle with a combined drinking and measuring vessel, characterized in that a glass plug conically shaped at both ends in known manner, which fits tightly into the conical neck of the bottle, is constructed hollow throughout and is provided with a bottom at one end only, said hollow glass plug being of such a shape that it can be used as a drinking or measuring vessel when mounted in the closed bottle.
