UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
UHARLES GOLDTHWAIT, OF SOUTH WEYMOUTH, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPROVED BOTTLE-STOPPER.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 49,996, dated September 19, 1865.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, CHARLES GoLDTEwArr, of South Weymouth, in the county of Norfolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Stoppers for Bottles, and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable those skilled in the art to to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this speciication, in which- Figure 1 is an exterioror side view of my invention fitted in or applied to a bottle; Fig. 2, a detached plan or top view ot' the same; Fig. 3, a detached plan or top View of a portion or part pertaining to the same; Fig. 4, a detached plan or top view of a niodication of the plan shown in Figs. l and 2; Fig. 5, a section oi' Fig. 4, raken in the line a: m,- Fig. 6, a detached view of a portion ofthe device.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
Thisinventionrelates to a new and improved mounting or metalattachmcntfor cork stoppers for bottles, as hereinafter fully shown and described, whereby the corks are rendered extremely` durable, capable of being readily drawn from the bottles, and enabled to stop the bottles much tighterthan usual.
A, Fig. 1, represents a bottle, the neck B ot' which is in section in order to show the cork O, which is inserted in it.
The cork O may be ot' the usual or of any proper form, and on its upper part there is titted a metal socket or cap, D, the upper edge of which is bent over inward to form aange, a, which rests on the upper edge of the cork, as shown clearly in Fig. 5.
The cap D, it will be understood, is open at both ends, and,it' necessary or desired, a metal plate, b, may be placed on the top of the cork, the ange a bearing or resting on the same and connected to it by solder. (See Figs. 4 and 5.) If the plate b be not used, the top ot' the cork may be covered with wax, c. in Fig. 1.)
E represents a metal plate of trilateral forni, which is driven or forced down into the upper part ot' the cork, and has its edges fitting in notches d d in the ange a of the cap D, in order toinsure the cork being turned when the plate E is turned, the latter projecting sufficiently far above the top ot' the cork to admit of being readily grasped by the lingers.
In Fig. 3 the cork is shown with the cap D applied to it and the plate E withdrawn. 1f the metal plate b be employed, it is slotted to allow the plate E to pass through it, and it' wax c be used, it is applied after the cap D is tted on the cork and the plate E driven into the latter.
By means of this metal mounting the cork may be readily inserted in the neck of the bottle and drawn out of it without the aid ot' a corkscrew, and the cork may be used indefinitely, as the mounting preserves it, and also prevents any leakage in case the cork has longitudinal air-ducts passing through it, which often occurs. The metal plate .E also gives solidty to the cork, and the mounting as a whole is rather ornamental than otherwise and may be applied at a small cost.
I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A metallic mounting for bottle-corks, composed of a cap, D, and plate E, and either with a metal plate, b, or a wax covering, c, all arranged and applied substantially as and for the purpose herein set forth.
CHARLES GOLDTHWAIT.
