Improvements in Bottles for containing Aerated Liquids and the like.
DANIEL FRANCIS COGHLAN, of 2, Lilyville Road, Fulham, London, S.W., School-
master, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
:-
This invention consists of a bottle with an opening or orifice in the neck. This
orifice communicates with the interior of the bottle, through a tap or key that
is bored to enable the bottle to be filled or emptied. The bore of the tap or key
is disconnected with the orifice in the bottle, by turning round the tap by means
of that part of the tap that protrudes from and covers the whole of the top of the
neck of the bottle. The tap or bottle may be of earthenware glass, gutta-percha,
metal, wood or other like substance. The tap fits air tight when the bottle is
filled with an aerated liquid.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Bottles for containing Aerated Liquids and the like.
I, DANIEL FRANCIS COGIILAN, of 2, Lilyville Road, Fulham, in the County of
London, Schoolmaster, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in
what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascer-
tained in and by the following statement:—
My invention relates to a combined tap-bottle for aerated liquids and the like.
And in order that my invention may be thoroughly understood, I now proceed
to describe the accompanying drawing thereof, reference being had to letters
and figures marked thereon.
Fig. 1, is a vertical section of the apparatus.
Fig. 2, is an elevation of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3, is a section on line A B.
Fig. 4, is a section of a key with a side groove.
Fig. 5 is a vertical section an alternative pattern of Fig. 1.
Fig. 6, is a section on line C D.
This invention consists of a bottle a with an opening or orifice b in the neck a¹.
This orifice b communicates, through or by a tap or key c that is bored or grooved
with the interior of the bottle. Through the orifice 6 and bored tap or key c
liquids may be passed in or out of the bottle as indicated by arrows in Fig. 1.
The bored of the tap or key c is disconnected from the orifice b in the bottle by

page_text: turning round the tap by means of the head e of the tap which protrudes from,
and covers the whole of the top of the neck of the bottle. The tap or bottle may
be of earthenware, glass, gutta-percha, metal, wood, or other like substance. The
tap is made to fit airtight. The tap c is constructed in one piece and the glass
bottle moulded or blown around it.
In Fig. 4, I form a key or tap c with a vertical side groove of so that when
the groove f faces the orifice b the liquid will escape from the bottle fitted with
this apparatus. In Figs. 5, and 6, I form an alternative pattern key, with a
groove g and a circular channel h. The use of this groove is for lubricating.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is:-
1. In a tap bottle, the combination of the various parts, constructed and arranged
in the manner fully described in the above specification for the purpose specified
and according to the accompanying drawing.
2. In a tap bottle, the combination of the orifice in the neck of a bottle and a
key with a vertical side groove, substantially as herein described and according
to Figs. 2, and 4, of the accompanying drawing.
3. In a tap bottle, the combination of the orifice in the neck of a bottle and a
key with a vertical side groove, and channel, substantially as herein described
and according to Figs. 2, 5, and 6, of the accompanying drawing.
