Specification of Letters latent.
Application led April 11, 1912. Serial No. 690,075.
To all 'whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, ARTHUR O. Ko'r'r, a
citizen of the United States,I residing at Johnson City, in the county ofBlanco and State of Texas, have invented a new and useful Funnel; and .I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact-de-l -scription'of the invention, such p able others skilled in the art to which it as will enappertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to a new and useful funnel for filling a tank,'bottle or other receptacle, and particularly to anautomatic closing valve' for the funnel, adapted to clo'se subsequent-ly to the'filling ofthe receptacle, at the ltime-'the receptacle is filled.
with its holding capacity of Huid.,
The" lnvention comprises eiiicient-and de l sirable features of construction and combi# nation of parts, as hereinafter set forth,- shown 1n the drawings and claimed;
In the drawings z-Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of the improved funnel constructed in accordance with the invention, and as applied to a receptacle. Fig. 2`is a smular View showing the valve closed, but
not applied to the receptacle. Fig. 3 is a detailed view in perspective of and the surrounding parts.
Referring tol the drawings 1 designates the funnel, which is of the usual shape, in which a partition or bottom 2 havingk a valve seat 3 is arranged, while 4 denotes-the bottle or receptacle, into which the funnel extends. tion on. the neck of the funnel by a, thumb screw 6, is provided for limiting the insertion of -the funnel in the\recepta cle. The
the valve collar is designated by the numeral 5.y
Arching over the valve seat kare two semicircular guide rods 7, one on each side of the ball Valve 8, to guide the valve and to prevent entire displacement of the saine.
Arching over the guide rods 7, and at' right angles thereto is a supporting lrod 9, the upper or arch portionthereof is substan- `tially U-shaped having substantially vertical sideportions 10. Pivotally mounted on the horizontal portion of the arch of the supporting rod 9, 'is a gravitatin rocking member 11, the' lower end ofwhich ter- A collar, which is'secured in posi-v minates in a dished plate 12; which is adapt- .ed to embrace the ball valve and hold the lsame closed,w hen it automatically closes.
The gravitating rocking member is/pro-t Avided with an -Iofset bracket 13 having lat- Patented-May 20,1913, A 1
erally extending arms 14, to engage the vertical sides of the arched portion of the supporting rod, to limit the upward swinging l movement of the lower endof the gravitating member, when the valve is open. y
.Pivoted toa lug 2 of the partition 2 is a lever 15, to the short arm ofwhichas at 16,
an extension 17 of the float 18 is pivoted.`
When the fioat is in its. lowermost position as in Fig. -1, the 'long arm of the lever 15 extends partially through the valve opening, so as to hold valve 8 unseated. However, just so soon. as the iioat'raises, by the rise of the fluid in the receptacle, the long arm of the lever is withdrawn from the valve opening, and byreasonof the fact that, the
`valve 8 is constructed of heavy metal such as steel, th same automatically contacts with its seat, thereby closes the valve openi-ng, which will cut ott the flow of the Huid into the receptacle. As soon as the valve 8 closes its opening, the dished end of the gravitating rocking member will engage the valve and hold the same closed. To disenggage the dished end `of the avitating member, thereby release the va ve from its seat,
the lever 2O which is pivotedat 21 to the funnel with, its lower end arranged against the gravitating member, is actuated, which will raise the gravitating member to the p0- sition shown in Fig. 1. l
YThe invention having been set forth, what is claimed as new and useful is kIn a funnel having a partition provided witha valve seat and valve opening, a" ball valve to coperate therewith, guide rods arching over the seat, one on each side of the' valve for preventing its displacement, a supporting rod arching overthe guide rod at rlght angles thereto and having vertical side portions, a gravitating oscillatory men ber suspended from 'the archof the supporting rod and having a dished lower end to embrace the valve to hold the same closed,
`and a bracket carried by the gravitating oscillatory member having laterally extending arms to engage the vertical sides of the n testimony whereof I have signed my arch of the supporting rod, a lever pivoted name to this specification in the presence of Ato the funnel with its lower end in Contact two subscribing witnesses.
A with the gravitating member, for oscillating ARTHUR O. KOTT. the grmf'itating member to release the valve, lVitnesses:
and a float actuated lever extending through A. J. ROSE, said opening to unseatthe valve. W. A.' BUSHNELL.
