Description: |
Abstract:
It is the object of this invention to provide a bottle capper which, although made out of relatively thin stock, will have the necessary strength, the parts being so shaped and disposed with respect to each other that reinforcement will be provided where reinforcement is needed. The invention aims to provide novel means for imparting reciprocating movement to a rider which carries the capping head, the construction being such that the rider may be adjusted rapidly, upon occasion.
Claim:
In a bottle capper, a rider fashioned from a single plate formed into a rear wall, and sides having first and second extensions, the first extension having a notch in its lower edge, the notch defining an inner wing prolonged transversely of the rider into engagement with the second extension, the second extension having a notch in its upper edge, the sides being provided at their forward edges with ears located above the ex-tensions, and a securing device connecting the ears; a frame comprising a rack received slidably in the space defined by the rear wall, the sides, the inner wing and the ears; a lever located between the extensions and ful-crumed thereon, the lever including a segment meshing with the rack, the notch in the second extension exposing the rack and the segment at their place of meshing, to provide for the egress of dirt, the lever being in contact with the extension at a point opposite to said notch and a capping head carried by the extensions. |
