Complete Specification Left, 25th Aug., 1890-Accepted, 27th Sept., 1890
PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Stoppering Ink-bottles and like Vessels having
Spouts.
I, JOHN JAMES VARLEY, of 268, South Lambeth Road, in the County of London,
Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to stoppering, by the use of screw-stoppers, ink and other
bottles or vessels having spouts.
For this purpose I form the neck of the bottle with an interior screw thread below
the level of the spout. The stopper for closing this bottle has the lower part of the
stem thereof formed with a screw thread while the upper part is plain and of larger
diameter than the screw thread so as to form a shoulder at the upper part of the said
thread adapted to receive a washer or packing of suitable elastic material so that
when the stopper is screwed home the joint is formed below the spout on a shoulder
above the screw thread.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Stoppering Ink-bottles and like Vessels having
Spouts.
I, JOHN JAMES VARLEY, of 268, South Lambeth Road, in the County of London,
Engineer, 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 relates to stoppering, by the use of screw-stoppers, ink and other
bottles or vessels having spouts.
For this purpose I form the neck of the bottle with an interior screw thread below
the level of the spout the diameter of the opening of the neck above the screw being.
larger than the diameter of the screw. The stopper for closing this bottle has the
lower part of the stem thereof formed with a screw thread while the upper part is
plain and of larger diameter than the screw thread so as to form a shoulder at the
upper part of the said thread adapted to receive a washer or packing of snitable elastic
material so that when the stopper is screwed home the joint is formed below the spout
on the shoulder above the screw thread.
In order to enable my invention to be fully understood I will describe how it can
be carried into practice by reference to the accompanying drawing in which,
Figure 1 is a vertical section of part of an ink bottle stoppered according to my
invention.
Figure 2 is a separate elevation of the stopper and
Figure 3 is a separate vertical section of the upper part of the bottle.
Similar letters in all the figures indicate similar parts.
a represents the neck of the bottle and 6 the interior screw-thread thereof below the
level of the spout c; d is the upper part of the opening in the neck of larger diameter
than the screw thread b; e is the screw-thread on the lower end of the stem of the
stopper is the larger part of the stem above the screw-thread; g is the elastic
washer or packing on the shoulder of the stopper.
By this arrangement it will be obvious that if a stopper of the construction shewn
in Figure 2 be screwed into a bottle having a neck constructed as shewn in Figure 3,

page_text: the washer 9 will come against the shoulder h in the bottle-neck and form a tight
joint below the spout e as clearly shewn in Figure 1.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is
1
1. The improved stopper for ink bottles and like vessels having spouts, substantially
as hereinbefore described and illustrated in the accompanying drawing.
2. An ink bottle or like vessel having a spout the neck of the bottle being formed
with an interior screw-thread below the spout, substantially as hereinbefore described
and illustrated in Figures 1 and 3 of the accompanying drawing.
3. The use in combination, of a stopper such as herein before described and a bottle
or like vessel having a spout the neck of the bottle being formed with an interior screw-
thread below the spout as hereinbefore described and illustrated in Figure 1 of the
accompanying drawing.
