lJNiTED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES M. BERRY, OF SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA, ASSIGNOR OF ONE- HALF TO B. F. MILLARD, OF SAME PLACE.
SALT AND PEPPER DISTRIBUTER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 518,559, dated April 17,1894.
Application filed September 28, 1893.
To all whom it may concern:
Tie it known that I, CHARLES M. BERRY, a citizen of the United States, residing at San Francisco, in the county of San Francisco and 5 State of California, have invented certain new and useful'Improvements in Salt and Pepper Distributors; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of said invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it most nearly appertains to make, use, and practice the same.
This invention relates to a combined salt and pepper distributer, the object of the invention being to provide for the holding of the salt and pepperin the same receptacle and permit the distribution of either independent of the other, or both at the same time, thus overcoming the necessity of making separate dlstributers for each as heretofore, and the invention consists in the arrangement of parts and details of construction as will be hereinafter more fully set forth and described.
In order to more fully understand my invention, reference must be had to the accompanylng sheet of drawings, wherein- Figure 1, is a vertical sectional elevation. F g. 2, is a similar view taken on line -50, Fig. 1; Fig. 3, a top plan of the receptacle'for holding the salt and pepper, the cap being removed Fig. 4, a bottom plan of the cap, showing the sliding plates for opening and closing the openings of the cap; and Fig. 5, is a top plan of Fig. 4:.
The letter A, indicates the salt and pepper hold ng box, or bottle, which is divided into two inner compartments, A, A by means of the partition plate B, which extends from top to bottom. When the holding receptacle for the salt and pepper is constructed of glass, porcelain, metal or similar material. I prefer to make the partition plate integral therewith, although if so desired, the same may be removably secured therein by permitting the same to slide in grooves formed in the inner wall of the receptacle. In one compartment, say A, is placed salt, while in the other is placed pepper, being separated from each other by the partition plate B. The holding, receptacle is made with the screw-threaded 5o neck a, over which fits the screw-threaded Serial No. 486,650. (No model.)
flange C,of the cap C, by means of which the cap is secured to the holding receptacle.
The cap is provided with a series of outlet openings 0, through which the pepper and salt escapes, said openings being opened or closed 5 5 by the slide plates D, D, having openings at, d,therein which correspond with the openings a, when the plates are moved inward.
These plates are provided with downwardly extending flanges e, e, to which inner ends of arms E,E,I rigidly fasten. These arms project through the flange 0, of the cap as shown, and are surrounded by the springs f, f, which bear against the wall f of the countersunk openings of the flange C, and enlarged head E of the arms, the resiliency of said springs being sufiicient to force the slide plates outward, in order to close the openings in the cap, when inward pressure is removed from the arms. The slide plates work upon the under face of the cap and are held in place by the channel bridge plate F, which fits within the guide-ways g, g, cut in the inner wall of the cap flange. The upper face of the bridge plate bears against the under face of the slide plates, as shown,consequentlyholds the plates imposition. Between the inner faces of the slide plate a space exists, as shown at h, equal to nearly the width of the bridge plate, in order to permit the inward movement of said plates.
Within the channel F, of the bridge plate, is secured a packing F which, when the cap is secured firmly upon the receptacle A, bears against the partition plate B, and prevents 8 5 the contents of chamber or compartment A, intermixing with that of compartment A In order to prevent confusion in the use of my device one side of the cap will be stamped with the word Salt,the other with the word go Pepper,'thus plainly indicating to the user what each compartment of the device contains.
If salt is desired it is only necessary to push in the arm projecting from that side of the cap marked Salt, which will cause the inward movement of one of the slide plates so as to uncover that portion of the perforated cap and permit the contents from compartment A, to make its escape. By removing 10o 2, r v e r 1 5? thepressure from the arin'the resiliency of I" the spring surrounding the same 'Will'cause the slide plate to move outwardso as to cover the perforations in thecap and thus prevent the outflow from the compartment. v
e If it is desired to use both salt and pepper at the same time, as for instance in order to season soup, both compartments maybe opened in order to permit the escape of salt and pepper therefrom by pressing both arms in, which causes the inward movement of each slide plate so that the openings therein register with the cap openings Asa source of economy my device will be found of the utmost importance when used in hotels, restaurants and boarding establishments. It. also saves much labor in the refilling, as by simply removing the capthe contentsof each compartment is exposed,
Having" thus described my inventiongwhat I claim as new, and desire to secure protection I I v in'by Letters Patent, is?- I l wall of the receptacle.-
