Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed June 7, 1909. Serial No. 500,683.
To'all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, OSCAR ALBERT 0pm, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lafayette, in the county of Nicollet and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Dispensing-Cans,
of which the following is a s ecification.
My invention relates to ispensing cans, more particularly to such cans .as are mechanically emptied-through the base thereof.
It has for its object to provide a method oftransferring liquids from cans to receiving vessels, that w1ll eliminate all the inconveniences experienced in the ordinary cans, as the inevitable loss of energy required to empty the ordinary cans, caused by the necessity of using two hands instead of one as required by my invention; and the waste of liquid occurring in the transfer thereof from the old fashioned cans to a receiving vessel, for even though a funnel is used, the receiving vessel may be full and at the same time the funnel contain liquid which continues to flow thus causing an overflow and waste, whereas should my invention be used immediately upon the filling of the receiver the flow of the liquid may be stopped.
With these and other objects in View, the present invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts as Wlll be hereinafter more fully described and particularly pointed out in the appended claims, it being understood that changes in the specific structure shown and described may be made within the scope of the claims without departing from the spirit of the invention.
- In the drawings forming a part of this specification and in which like characters of reference indicate similar parts in the several views, Figure 1 is a longitudinal cross section taken along line ww of Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view of the can. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal cross section taken along the line 3-3 of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 1 partly in elevation showing the device in operation.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, A indicates an ordinary can having the overflow lip 15 and provided with a series of legs 9, all of said legs being solid with the exception of the funnel-shaped one 6 which is directly under the handle 5 that the can is supplied with. This leg 6 is provided with an orifice 7 through which, when open, the liquid to be dispensed passes. Adapted to fit snugly in this opening'7 is the stop lug 8, made of any suitable material, pre erably rubber, which by any suit- Patented Jan. 18, 1910.
able means is attached to the opening rod or shaft 17 that extends vertically upward inside the measu're passing through the orifice 18 .in the handle, and is then bent at 13 to pass back through a like opening 19 and is bent at the end to form the lift trigger 12; thus forming in one piece of metal rod the operating means 17, a lift trigger 12, for same and a bracing member 16 which prevents the trigger 12 from swinging on the shaft 17 as a pivot, and hence shifting from its normal operative position. Midway of the side of the measure and attached thereto by means of the bolt or rivets 20 is the angle iron 10 having the perforated arm which forms a brace through which passes the operating shaft; and locatedbetween the brace 11 and the stop plug 8 is the spring 14 which normally keeps the plug firmly fixed in the opening 7 thus preventing any leak. The
lift trigger is such a distance from the han- I dle that when said trigger is lifted up to the limit the stop plug is still partly disposed in the exit 7 thus preventing it from catching on theedge of the exit to delay the return of the plug to its original or normal position which would result in leakage.
From the foregoing, it will be understood that this device may be used in all sized vessels and for all kinds of liquids. It will also be noticed that in order to transfer liquids to a bottle, jug, or like vessel. the only operation necessary is to place the leg 6 in the mouth thereof and raise the trigger with the forefinger of the hand on the handle, consequently lifting the plug 8 and freeing the liquid, and when necessary to stop flow thereof the trigger 12 is released returning the plug 8 to its normal position and instantly closing the exit 7. Thus no peculiar strain is placed upon the operator, and the lifting efiiciency of the trigger engaging finger may be utilized during dis-' having its upper en to the inner side of the said receptacle, a plug adapted to enter said passage, a rod attached to said plu and passing through said guide said r extending u wardly through the passages in said han le then downwardly therethrou h and having its upper end turned latera y beneath the bandle to form a lift trigger, and a'coil spring between said plug and said guide.
2. A device of the class described comprising a receptacle, a horizontal handle extending transversely across the receptacle, said handle havin vertical passages therethrough downwar ly tapered legs secured to the under side of the bottom of the receptacle, one of said legs being hollow, a passage through said bottom and communicating with said hollow leg a guide secured to the inner side of the receptacle, a plug adapted to enter said passage, a rod attached to said plu and passing through said guide and throug the passa es in said handle and formed into a lift trigger, and a coil spring between said plug and said guide.
3. In combination with a receptacle having an exit 0 ening in the bottom thereof a guide mem er stationed above the exit openlng and carried by the said receptacle, a handle having guide passages therethrough carried upon said receptacle of an operating rod passing throu h said guide member and extending throng the guide passages in said handle and having its upper portion bent laterally inwardly of the handle to form a trigger for the manipulation of said operating rod, said operating rod carrying a plug adapted to rest in said exit opening and resilient means for holding said plug in said exit opening.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature, in presence 0 two witnesses.
OSCAR ALBERT OLIN.
