PATENT OFFICE

The jacket for bottles shown in the accompanying drawing is designed as a cooling container and built in such a way that a large part of the bottle surface is in contact with the coolants Comes into contact, so a rapid cooling of the bottle contents is achieved.

The lower part of the jacket, which forms the cooler, consists here of solid sheet metal, which is not provided with any perforations. The bottom α ¹ , Fig. 1, is bent inward and protrudes into the cavity of the bottle bottom, the shape of which it has approximately. The bottle rests on three projections a ^{2 of} this bottom. At its upper end, the container α has an annular reinforcement k over which a rubber sleeve m engages. The rubber sleeve forms a tight seal of the cooler α and causes the bottle bottom to rest firmly on the projections d ^{1 of} the container bottom.

The upper part of the jacket b is connected to the cooling container a by means of a bayonet lock. At the upper end the part b is slit and surrounds the bottle neck with the resilient tongues η thus created. A spiral spring r, which rests on the tapered part of the bottle, and the last turns of which surround the neck of the bottle, tries to push the upper part of the jacket b upwards. As a result, a pull is exerted on the lower part of the bottle α and a flexible connection between the two parts of the jacket is achieved.

The mixture, composed of certain amounts of ice and salt, is poured onto the bottom of the cooler α. The bottle is then pushed into the cooler a until it rests on the cold mixture. Then bring the rubber sleeve m, the spiral spring r and finally the upper part of the jacket to the places intended for them. The water produced when the ice melts rises between the bottle and the cooling container and, in conjunction with the cold mixture, causes the liquid contained in the bottle to cool down quickly.

Fig. 2 shows a bottle jacket, in the bottom of which a special ice container ρ is inserted. The bottle rests on the edge of this ice-filled container ρ and is connected to it by a rubber sleeve 0. A spring q is arranged between the shell bottom and the bottom of the container ρ , which always presses the container p firmly against the bottle bottom and also presses the shell part b firmly against the bottle neck.

In order to make the labels of the bottle visible, the jacket part a can be provided with a corresponding cutout, as indicated in FIG. 2 at χ.

Claims (1)

Patent Claims: i. A metal jacket consisting of two or more parts held together by suitable closures for enveloping bottles, the lower part (a, Fig. 1) of which is adapted to receive a coolant and is tightly connected to the bottle by a rubber sleeve (m) and the upper part is pressed firmly onto the bottle neck by a spring (r, Fig. 1) arranged on the bottle neck, the spring at the same time securing the closure of the jacket parts and preventing the bottle from rattling in the jacket.
An execution of the under ι. marked bottle jacket in such a way that a cooling container fp), which is arranged on the lower part of the jacket and on which the bottle rests, is tightly connected to it by the rubber sleeve (o) and where the spring (r) fanned on the bottle neck is secured by an under the cooling container (p ) located (q) is replaced. For this purpose ι sheet of drawings.
