Complete Specification Left, 24th Feb., 1891-Accepted, 11th Apr., 1891
PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Drench Bottles for Horses, Dogs, and Cattle.
I, WILLIAM OLDAKER, of 5, Gosforth Terrace, Gosforth, Newcastle-upon-
Tyne, Commercial Traveller, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be
as follows:-
The object of my invention is to render the administration of drugs medicines
and other liquids to horses dogs and cattle more easy, expeditious, and safe. I
accomplish this in the following manner.
I lead a tube of any suitable material and dimensions, from the side of the neck
of the drench bottle internally to near the bottom of the bottle and to or near to
its centre so that when the bottle is inverted or partly inverted, the free admission
of air through the tube from the outside to the surface of the liquids facilitates
and greatly increases the rapidity of discharge and prevents the agitation of the
liquid by bubbling and thus renders the administration of the liquid more rapid
certain and easy.
The tube may have a small bracket or bridge piece to steady it
in position at the base of the bottle.
also have the cylindrical part of the bottle prolonged beyond the base and in
this prolonged part on the circumference internally I have two or more strips of
tin plates or other metals or material or other catch arrangement-and within this
prolonged part of the bottle I place a funnel which is held there by the springs or
catches until wanted when it is easily withdrawn and fixed to the mouth of the bottle
and so the bottle may the more easily be charged with any required liquid.
The bottle may be made of tin plate copper or any other suitable metal or
material or combinations of materials and may be of any desired shape and may be
ribbed if necessary at the neck or elsewhere to afford greater strength.
Doted this 23rd day of May 1890.

Fig. 2. is a side section of Fig. 1.
I lead a tube B. of any suitable material and dimensions, from the side of the
neck A of the drench bottle internally to near the bottom C of the bottle, and to
or near to its centre so that when the bottle is inverted or partly inverted, the free
admission of air through the tube B from the outside to the surface of the liquids
facilitates and greatly increases the rapidity of discharge, and prevents the agitation
of the liquid by bubbling and thus renders the administration of liquids more
rapid, certain, and easy. The tube may have a small bracket or bridge piece D.
to steady it in position at the base of the bottle.
I also have the cylindrical part E. of the bottle prolonged beyond the base C,
and in this prolonged part on the circumference internally I have two or more
ונ'D

page_text: strips F. of tin plates or other metals or materials or other catch arrangement, and
within this prolonged part of the bottle I place a funnel G. which is held there by
the springs or catches until wanted when it is easily withdrawn and fixed to the
mouth of the bottle, and so the bottle may the more easily be charged with any
required liquid.
The bottle may be made of tin plate, copper or any other suitable metal or
material or combination of materials, and may be of any desired shape, and may
be ribbed if necessary at the neck or else-where to afford greater strength.
Having now fully described and ascertained the nature of my invention, and in
a what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I claim is
-
1st. A tube leading from the side of the neck of the bottle to or near to the
centre of the bottom as shown and described and for the purpose specified.
2nd. A funnel attached to the bottle substantially as set forth or any modi-
fication thereof for the purpose specified.
. 3rd. A funnel in connection with a drench bottle, connected, attached, or
enclosed, and for the purpose specified.
4th. In combination with the said funnel the catches, springs, or any other
suitable devices for attaching temporarily the said funnel substantially as
described.
5th. A drench bottle constructed with all or any of the heretofore claimed
improvements.
