OIL CAN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 674,055, dated May 14, 1901. Application filed August 20, 1900. Serial No. 27,517. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, EMIL PAUL DAToW, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of New Orleans, parish of Orleans and State of Louisiana,haveinvented certain new and useful Improvements in Oil-Oans, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part thereof, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
This invention relates to improvements in non-explosive oil-cans.
The nature and object of the invention will be fully understood from the following general description and the annexed drawings and will be subsequently pointed out in the claims.
Figure 1 is a sectional view in elevation of my newly-invented oil-can. Fig. 2 is also a sectional view in elevation of the same, taken on the line to y of said Fig. 1.
There has heretofore been quite a large loss of life and property arising from the explosion of cans in which kerosene-oil was kept. This especially was apt to occur when the can was brought near to a fire, the accident in this class of cases occnring because fire was communicated from the outside to the contents of the can. It is to obviate this class of accidenl-s that my present invention has been devised.
The body of the can may be made of any adaptable material, of any adaptable size,and any convenient shape; but I prefer to make it of sheet metal and of the form here illustrated. In the top of this can I solder the neck A, which is in the form of an inverted truncated cone extending down into the body of the can. The valve B is hinged at c to the lower end of this neck. The arm O is at tached rigidly to the valve B and extends outwardly beyond the hinge-joint c. The Weight D is fastened to this arm at c by means of the link d, so that by its gravity it will hold the valve B normally closed. The tube E is a continuation of the spout E and extends nearly to the bottom of the can. At the bottom of the can and within the can is a hood F, which is of the form of a segment of a sphere, securely fastened by its edges by soldering or in any other adaptable way to the bottom of the can, so as to be oil-tight through a great part of its periphery, and extending across more than halfof the bottom forms one side of a chamber at the bottom of the can, communicating with the tube E by the opening F, all the various parts of the mechanism to be substantially as illustrated in the drawings.
This can is 1:0 be filled in the common and well-known way,for the valve B is so weighted that it will form no impediment to the entrance of the oil. It will then be found that the valve B will be held closed by the weight D. The oil is poured out of the can from the spout E. The valve B being closed by the weight D on the bottom of the neck A will prevent the entrance of fire that way, and the oil in the tube E and the chamberformed by the hood F, acting as a valve, will pre vent the entrance of fire that way, so that at ordinary temperatures fire cannot enter the can and the accidents before referred to cannot occur. Aside from what is herein described this can is used in the common and well-known Way.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The combination with an oil-can; of the hood F, in the form of a segment of a sphere, fastened oil-tight, by its edge to the bottom of the can through a great part of its periphery, and with the said bottom forming a chamber in the bottom part of the can, extending across more than half of said bottom, and communicating with the tube E, through the opening F, all substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. In an oil-can, the combination with the spout E, and the tube E, continuing the same as specified; of the hood F, formed in a segment of a sphere, fastened oil-tight by its edge to the bottom of the can through a great part of its periphery, extending across more than half of said bottom, and with said bottom forming a chamber, at the bottom of the can, and communicating with said tube by the opening E, all substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as rnyinvention I have signed my name, in presence of two witnesses, this 26th day of July,
EMIL PAUL DATOW. Witnesses:
ALFRED P. BARNES, ANDREW HERO, Jr.
