Description

PATENTED 001. 15, 1907. B. D. WATBRBURY. MILK CAN OPENER AND SEAL APPLICATION FILED AUG. 9, 1906.
on s'r'rhs TNT s ren.
EMERY D. WATERBURY, OF SAWTELLE, CALIFORNIA.
' MILK-CAN. OPENER AND SEAL.
To all whom it may concern: a
Be it known that I, EMERY D. WATERBURY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sawtelle, in the county of Los Angeles and Stateof California, have invented a new and useful Device for Milk-Can Openers and Seals, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to provide a device capable of being readily attached to cans for making openings or incisions in the tops thereof, and also sealing such openings when desired.
The invention will be hereinafter fully set forth and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 shows the device applied to a condensed-milk can. Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the openings uncovered. Fig. 3 is a view in perspective of the device, detached.
Referring to the drawings, A designates a clamp composed of a bar of thin spring metal each end of which is bent downwardly at right angles and notched, at K, and one of the bent portions is provided with a lateral lip O. Pivotally secured to the bar A, at the center thereof, as at E, is a second bar B, also of spring metal, to the outer ends of which are secured knobs C and spurs D, the latter extending beneath bar B.
The spurs D constitute the punching media.
In practice, the clamping bar A is secured to a can by first placing one of the downwardly bent portions in engagement with the edge of the can top, the notch K taking under the edge of such top, and by I Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed August 9, 1906- Serial No. 329,916.
Patented Oct. 15, 1907.
pressure on lip O the other bent portion is then forced down into engagement with the can top. After bar B has been moved to the desired position, a blow orpressure on knobs C will force the spurs D through the can-top. To then discharge all or a portion of the contents it is only necessary to withdraw the spurs and turn bar B on its pivot. is again turned to bring the spurs into the openings, into which they will be forced by the pressure of their carrying member. Each spur carries a gasket 2: to hermetically seal the respective openings. When the can is emptied, the device may be removed and applied to another can.
I claim as my invention:
1. As an article of manufacture, the herein described can-punching device comprising a bar of spring metal booked at its opposite ends, a second bar pivotally secured to the first mentioned bar, spurs carried by said second bar at the ends thereof, and gaskets between said spurs and said second member. p
2. As an article of manufacture, the herein described can-punching device comprising a member of thin metal having its ends bent downwardly and formed with notches to engage a can-top at the opposite points. thereof, one of said downwardly bent portions having a lateral flange, a second member also of spring metal pivotally secured to the first mentioned member, knobs mounted on the ends of said second member. and spurs beneath said knobs for forming openings in the can-top.
