Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
P. PALLISSARD, OF ST. ANNE, ILLINOIS.
IAM PRovl-:D FRUIT-JAR.
To all 'whom fit may concern:
Be it known that I, P. PALLISSARD, of St. Anne, in the county of Kankakee and State of Illinois7 have invented a new and Improved Fruit-Jar; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this speciiication, in which- Figure l is a vertical central section of this invention. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same. Fig. 3 is a plan or top view ot the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts.
This invention relates particularly to the manner ot'lilling the jar and of closing down its stopper. The stopper is provided with two openings outside communicating with four openings in theinterior, intended to introduce the liquid with which the jar is to be lled and to let the air escape from the interior of said jar. A bridge-bar, the notched ends of which catch in slotted hook-straps, and which is provided with a suitable set-screw, serves to press the stopper down upon the neck of the jar. The hook-straps catch under the bead which encircles the neck, and they are easily lemoved and attached to jars of different size and diameter.
A represents a jar, made of glass, earthenware, porcelain, or any other suitable material. B is its stopper, which is made ot' any suitable material. lt extends a short distance down in the neck of the jar, and it closes down fiat upon its upper edge, with an intervening piece. of india-rubber, leather, or other suitable packing, as clearly shown in Figs. l and 2 of the drawings. SaidI stopper is provided with two holes, a b, passing through its entire thickness, to form a communication between the interior of the jar and the exterior. One of these holes serves to introduce the liquid with which the jar is to be filled and the other to form a vent-hole for the air escaping from the interior of the jar as the same gradually lls up with liquid.
The stopper is fastened down by means of a set-screw, c, which is tapped into the central boss of a brdge-bar, d. This bridge-bar eX- tends across the center of the stopper B, and
its ends catch into slots e in the upper ends of hooked straps f, the lower ends of which catch under the bead or'ange' g, encircling the upper edge of the neck of the jar.
The straps may be rounded off so that they accommodate themselves to the rounded circumference ot' the jar; but it is obvious that the same straps may readily be used for jars ot' different diameters.
The ends of the bridge-bar are notched to prevent the straps from slipping oft', and the upper ends of said straps may be turned over, as seen in Fig. l of the drawings, in order to enable them to lie tlat in the notched ends ot' the bridge-bar. The point of the set-screw c, which passes through the bridge-bar, strikes the stopper of the jar as near as possible in its center, and said stopper may be provided with a suitable cavity to receive the point. rlhe stopper' ot' the jar is free to accommodate itself to the edge of the neck, whether the same be perfectly' square and parallel with the lower edge ot' the bead under which the hooked straps catch or not, and the jar can be sealed tight with little trouble. After it has been sealed, and the air from its interior has been expelled by heat or other suitable means, the vacant space which may have formed on top ofthe contents of the can is lilled up through one of the openings a or b, and these openings are stopped up with wooden plugs, or in any other suitable manner, and the contents of the jar are perfectly secured against the iniluence ot the external air. Small air-bubbles which may be caught between its top and neck escape through the lateral openings a b and `openings 'a b, and the last vestige of air is thus removed.
I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patentl. The hooked strapsff, catching under the flange g of the bottle and perforated to receive the notched bridge-piece d, as herein described.
The lateral openings c b', arranged in relation to the vertical openings a bin the cover, in the manner and for the purposes herein specilied.
P. PALLISSARD. Witnesses:
STEPHEN R. MOORE, C. A. LocKE.
