I .COMBINED BO-TTLE CAP-AND STOPPER Filed Nov. 14, 1942 Inventor C/zarZoZZe VSZ'vemsofv Patented Apr. 17, 1945 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE I I I 2,374,143 v COMBINED BOTTLE CAP AND s'rorrsa Charlotte V. Stevenson, New York, N Y. Application November 14, 1942, Serial No. 465,597
1 Claim. (c1. 215--38) The present invention relates to a combined bottle cap and stopper for use as a closur for bottles in place of the usual crimped cap and the invention has for its primary object to provide a device of this character which may be used either as a replacement for closing the bottle after the original cap has been removed, or which may be used for originally sealing the bottle.
A further object is to provide an article of this character of simple and practical construction, which is neat and attractive in appearance,
relatively inexpensive to manufacture andotherwise well adapted for the purposes for which the same is intended. 1
Other objects and advantages reside in the details of construction and operation as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout and in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a combined bottle cap and stopper removed from the bottle.
Figure 2 is a side elevational view showing device in position on the bottle, and
the
Figure 3 is a vertical sectional view thereof.
Referring now to the drawing in detail wherein for the purpose of illustration I have disclosed a preferred embodiment of the invention, the numeral 5 designates a substantially hood-shaped member adapted for enclosing the upper end of the neck 6 of a bottle, the hood being constructed of light weight stiff paper, such as Cellophane and having its central portiontdepressed to form a stopper 1 tightlyfitted in' the open end of the bottle and extending a substantial distance into the neck thereof.
The lower edge of the hood *5 is provided with a band 8 of heavy paper or the like suitably secured thereto to reinforce the lower edge of the hood, the band being split as indicated at 9 to permit expansion and contraction thereof for engaging over vthe bead ID of the bottle for positioning the band i under the lower edge thereof.
A U-shaped wire member H is secured to the band adjacent each end thereof, the members l I being of bendable material and adapted for insertion one in the other and adapted for bending upon themselves as shown in Figure 2 of the,
drawing to secure to the ends of the band The stopper portion 1 and hood 5 of the combined cap and stopper are of sufficiently rigid material to prevent collapsing of the stopper by pressure of the contents ofthe bottle.
It is believed the details of construction, operation and manner of use of the device will be readily understood from the foregoing without further detailed explanation.
Having described the invention; what is claimed as new is:
A combined bottle cap and stopper com-' prising a hood constructed of relatively thin stiff sheet material adapted for enclosing the open end of the neck of a bottle, the central portion of the hood being depressed to form an elongated thimble-like stopper projecting downwardly into the bottle a substantial distance therein, a strip of relativelyv heavy paper secured to the lower edge of the hood and forming a split band therefor, a wire loop secured to one split end of the band, and a bendable wire fastener secured to the other end of the band and adapted for insertion intothe loop in a manner to releasably connect the ends of the band.
CHARLOTTE V. STEVENSON.
