PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improvement in Sauce and other like Bottles and in the
Manufacture of the same.
We, EDWIN HASALL JUKES, and WILLIAM HENRY BAYLISS JUKES, trading
together as Jukes Brothers, of 5, A.B. Row, Birmingham, Warwickshire, Glass
Bottle Manufacturers do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
This invention has reference to those sauce and other like glass bottles which
are furnished with or made to take a cork ring in the neck to receive a glass
stopper. Heretofore glass bottles of this kind have been made by first blowing
the body and part of the neck of the bottle in a mould and then casting on and
working with a tool or tools the upper part of the neck to form an internal
seating or shoulder on which the cork ring fits.
By this part of our invention we considerably reduce the cost of manufacture
of the said bottles by forming at a single operation the complete bottle ready
(when annealed) to receive the cork ring for the stopper.
In carrying out our invention we employ a bottle mould shaped to correspond
with the outside of the bottle and the whole of the neck and having an internal
projection flange or ring which when the bottle is blown in the mould forms a
groove round the outside of the neck of the bottle and correspondingly contracts
the neck of the bottle inside so as to form the required shoulder or seating on
which the cork ring rests.
In order to prevent the cork ring being removed from its seating with the
stopper, as is often the case, we may make the seating of a larger diameter than
the mouth of the bottle so that when the cork ring is forced in place it will
swell out on to the seating which being larger than the bottle mouth prevents
the ring coming out with the stopper. This is applicable to bottles made in the
ordinary way as well as to those made in accordance with the first part of this
invention.
Dated this 28th day of January 1891.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
An Improvement in Sauce and other like Bottles and in the
Manufacture of the same.
We, EDWIN HASALL JUKES, and WILLIAM HENRY BAYLISS JUKES, trading
together as Jukes Brothers, of 5, A.B. Row, Birmingham, Warwickshire, Glass
Bottle Manufacturers, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what
manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained
in and by the following statement:-
This invention has reference to those sauce and other like glass bottles which are
furnished with or made to take a cork ring in the neck to receive a glass stopper.
Heretofore glass bottles of this kind have been made by first blowing the body and
part of the neck of the bottle in a mould and then casting on and working with a
tool or tools the upper part of the neck to form an internal seating or shoulder on
which the cork ring fits.
By this part of our invention we considerably reduce the cost of manufacture of

page_text: the said bottles by forming at a single operation the complete bottle ready (when
annealed) to receive the cork ring for the stopper.
On the accompanying drawing
Fig. 1 represents a bottle (partly in section) made in accordance with this
invention;
Fig. 2 is a cross section of the upper part of the neck of the same with the cork
ring in position ready for the stopper; and
Fig. 3 shews how the top of the bottle mould has to be formed to make the
bottle neck as shewn in Figs. 1 and 2.
The same letters of reference indicate the same parts in all the figures.
A is the bottle neck and B is the internal cork ring of the same in which the
stopper fits.
In carrying out the first part of our invention we employ a bottle mould shaped
to correspond with the outside of the bottle and the whole of the neck as shewn for
instance in Fig. 3 which illustrates our invention applied to ordinary bottle moulds
for making round bottles such as shown in Fig. 1. Near the top of the bottle
mould we provide an internal projecting flange or ringe which when the bottle is
blown in the mould forms a groove a¹ (see Fig. 1) round the outside of the neck of
the bottle and correspondingly contracts the neck of the bottle inside so as to form
the required shoulder or seating a on which the cork ring B rests as shewn in
Fig. 2.
According to the second part of our invention in order to prevent the cork
ring B being removed from its seating with the stopper, as is often the case, we
make the seating a² of a larger diameter than the mouth as of the bottle so that
when the cork ring B is forced in place in the bottle neck the cork ring will swell
out on to the seating a which being larger than the bottle mouth a³ prevents the
ring B coming out with the stopper. This second part of our invention is
applicable to bottles made in the ordinary way as well as to those made in
accordance with the first part of this invention.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what we
claim is
―
1. In the manufacture of those glass sauce or other like bottles which are made
to take a cork ring in the bottle neck the use of the internal projecting flange or
ringe in the bottle mould located so as to form the seating for the cork ring in the
bottle neck substantially as herein before set forth and illustrated by the accom-
panying drawing.
2. In those glass sauce and other like bottles which are made to take a cork ring
in the bottle neck the method of securing the cork ring in the bottle neck which
consists in making the seating (such as a²) on which the cork ring rests, larger in
diameter than the mouth of the bottle substantially as hereinbefore set forth and
illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2 of the accompanying drawing.
3. The manufacture use and sale of glass sauce and other like bottles having the
seating for the cork ring in the bottle neck formed in the manner hereinbefore
described and illustrated by the accompanying drawing.
Dated this 28th day of October 1891.
