Claims.
The invention relates to a canned liquid server and more especially to a device for holding and dispensing canned fluids, for example, evaporated milk, evaporated cream, syrups or the like.
The primary object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character wherein the cylindrical body thereof is formed in two sections, these being hinged together so as to permit the introduction and removal of canned fluid so that the contents of the can can be conveniently handled for the dispensing of the same, the device being adapted to open the can when the body of such device has been closed about the said can for the pouring of the contents and when the pouring has been completed the can will be sealed so as to avoid contamination of the remaining fluid therein or the possibility of such remaining contents becoming fermented and spoiling.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character wherein the body is formed with a ouring spout and also is effective for the opening of a can when confined therein so that the contents can be readily and conveniently poured and also such body of the device renders the canned fluid held therein thoroughly sanitary.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character wherein the contents of a can can be dispensed in its entirety or in determined quantities and'the dispensin being conveniently executed and that portion of the contents that may remain in the can will be protected so that it will not become contaminated or quickly ferment and spoil, the device being especially designed for the purpose of using liquid directly from a canand at the same time keeping the can airtight.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character, which is simple in its construction, thoroughly reliable and efficient in operation, readily and easily handled, neat in appearance, and inexpensive to structed in accordance with the invention and in a resting position.
Figure 2 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view thereof.
Figure 3 is a side elevation showingv the body of the device in open position.
Figure 4 is a top plan view of the device when the body is closed.
Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views in the drawing.
Referring to the drawing in detail, A designates generally the device constituting the present invention and comprises a hollow body formed in two sections I0 and II, respectively. These sections I0 and II are of rounded formation having outwardly bulged areas I2 merging into flange portions I3 which match each other when the said sections are brought together and constitute a rest rim at the bottom of said body. These sections I0 and I I at the upper end of the body are joined by pivot hinges I4 which are arranged diametrically opposite each other at the line of separation for the said sections.
The section III of the body of the device A at the uppermost portion thereof is formed with a pouring spout I5 while the section II is built with a loop handle I6, The section II is provided at the uppermost end with a bearing I'I pivotally supporting at I8 a lever I9. The lever I9 at the end next to the handle I6 is formed with a finger grip 20 while at the proper point along said lever I9 are stoppers 2| and 22, respectively, for closing passages through tubular piercing members 23 and 24, respectively, depending from the toppor tions of the'sections Ill and II. These members 23 and 24 are adapted to puncture the closed end of a can 25 when the latter is introduced into the body and the sections [0 and II closed about such can as does appear in Figures 1 and 2 of the drawing.
The puncture created by the member 23 is for dispensing 'therethrough the contents of such can while the puncture created by the member 24 effects an air vent to allow the contents of the can .to freely pour therefrom, the dispensing of the contents being had through the spout I5.
- The lever I9 is acted upon by a spring 26 which urges the same to a position for the fitting of the stoppers 2I and 22 in the passages through the ' members 23 and 24 for the closing of such passages when the device is .at rest. The lever I9 is manually operated so that the passages through the members 23 and 24 can be opened when the can 25 is confined within the body of said device to permit of the dispensing of the contents of said can when the device is tilted for this purpose.
Surrounding the members 23 and 24 are resilient sealing washers 21 which have contact with the top of the can 25 concentrically about the punctures therein created by the said members 23 and 24 and in this way eliminating leakage about said members.
The sections In and II of the body of the device are formed with bottom portions 28, these matching each other, and when the sections are brought together effect a bottom to the body of the device. One of the portions 28 carries a spring latch 29 for engaging a keeper 3!) on the other portion 28 and in this way the sections land I l of the body are latched together'for retaining and confining the can 25 within said body.
The sections Ill and II match each other and when the same are brought together will completely'confine the can 25, which at its bottom end is brought to rest at 3! interiorly of the sections it] and II when in closed, brought-together position. It should be noted by reference to the drawing that the can 25 on the bringing together of the sections In and- I I will be urged in the direction of 'the-members23 and 24 so that these through pressure of the can thereon'will puncture .the-end of the can next thereto for the purposes hereinbefore stated.
On the placing of the can 25 within the sections ,1 and II of the body of the device A, these sections will be brought together and latched so as to snugly confine the can 25 within the body of such device. -When the can 25 is confined, as stated, it will have :become punctured by the members 23 and 24 sothat the contents of such can can be readily and easily dispensed in the 'use of the device. The ,dispensing of the contents of the can 25 can be had when the stoppers 2| and 22 are'removed from the passages in the members 23- and-24 and the device brought to a tilting position for the dispensing operation.
When the stoppers 2i and 22 fit-in the passages in the members 23 and'24, the can 25 within the device will bein a sealed condition and thus the contents of the-can will be protected so as not to become'contaminated as well as avoiding. the fermenting and the spoiling of such contents.
When it is desired to remove the can 25 from the device, the sections Ill and Hare unlatched and swung away from each'other in the manner as appears in-Figure 3 of the drawing. In this relationship of the sections [0 and II of the body-of the device A, a can can be introduced or removed in, an easy'and convenient manner.
The portions 28 of the sections l0 and II have outwardly struck therefrom'catch channels or grooves 32,'which-are in circular,;spaced relation to each other sothat. should any waste of the liquid flow into the body of the device the. same will bev caught ;or trapped in :the channel or groove. 'I'heseroutstruckchannels or grooves .32 also reinforcethe portions 28 for the strengthen- :ing of the same-in the :bottom end of the said device; .Whatisclaimedisi' 419A device: for fluid'containersl and the like, comprising a;longitudina1ly divided casing form- :ing matchedseparable sections, hinges at the uppermostendof the casing for swingingly con- ;nectingrthe sections together, puncturing members on the sections at the hinged end of the casing and forming passages therethrough, means for closing and opening the passages through said members, means latching the sections together, and a pouring spout formed on one section at the hinged end of the casing next to a member having the passage therethrough.
