page_text: I ROSEANNA PARSELL of Five Arch Stores, South Parade, Tenby, in the County
of Pembroke, Mineral Water Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of my
invention for "IMPROVEMENTS IN STOPPERS AND BOTTLES FOR CONTAINING AĔRATED
LIQUIDS" to be as follows:-
The cap of the bottle is made so as to be removable. It is fitted to the neck of
the bottle by means of two dowels which project inside and which run in a
diagonally screwed groove outside the neck of the bottle. An india-rubber washer
is placed on the top of the neck of the bottle, & when the cap is screwed on the
escape of gas is prevented.
An internal, floating, ball stopper of cork coated with gutter percha or vulcanite
is intended to be used. There is also an external glass stopper through which is a
small vertical aperture for the purpose of filling the bottle; on the underside of this
stopper an indiarubber valve is fixed which closes when the bottle is filled. This
stopper is fitted inside the cap of the bottle on the same principle as the cap is
fitted to the neck of the bottle. A screwed groove is formed inside the cap in
which run two dowels, these project outward from the sides of the glass stopper.
The whole to be made of glass with the exception of the following parts:-
(1) The internal ball stopper.
(2) Valve for outer stopper.
(3) Washer inside cap of bottle,

Improvements in Stoppers and Bottles for Containing Aërated
Liquids.
I ROSEANNA PARSELL of Five arch Stores, South Parade, Tenby, in the County
of Pembroke Mineral Water Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of my
invention for "IMPROVEMENTS IN STOPPERS AND BOTTLES FOR CONTAINING AËRATED
LIQUIDS," and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement :-
The cap of the bottle is made so as to be removable. It is fitted to the neck of
the bottle by means of two dowels which project inside, and which run in a
diagonally screwed groove outside the neck of the bottle; an india-rubber washer
is placed on the top of the neck of the bottle, and when the cap is screwed on the
escape of gas is prevented. An internal floating ball stopper of cork or wood
coated with gutta percha or vulcanite is intended to be used."
There is also an external stopper, of glass or vulcanite, through which is a small
vertical aperture for the purpose of filling the bottle; on the underside of this
stopper an india-rubber valve is fixed which closes when the bottle is filled. This
valve which is merely a small circular slip of india-rubber, is fixed by pressing one
side into a groove which is cast in the bottom of stopper. This stopper is fitted inside
the cap of the bottle on the same principle as the cap is fitted to the neck of the
bottle, a screwed groove is formed inside the cap in which, run two dowels, these
project outward from the sides of the external stopper.
+
The bottle to be made of glass; the cap and external stopper to be of glass or
vulcanite; the internal ball stopper as previously described; valve to external
stopper, and washer inside cap of bottle to be of india-rubber.
The drawings accompanying this specification include the following parts :-
