Description

EDWARD NOBLE, or NORTH HAVEN, CONNECTICUT,
Letters Patent .N0.'106,394, dated August 16, 1870.
IMPROVEMENT INSELF-CLOSING COMPRESSION PAI-J'CETS.
The. Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, EDWARD NOBLn, of North Haven, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Improvement'in Self-acting Compression Faucet; and I do hereby declare that the following-is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to. make and'use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing finming part of this specification.
This inventionrelates to a new and useful improvement in faucets, and consists in an arrangement whereby the faucet-valve is closed by the pressure of the fluid and opened by means of a lever and inclined plane, arranged as will he hereinafter more fully described.
The accompanying draivin g represents a faucet- (partly in section) constructed according to my invention.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
3A is the part which is screwed or fastened into the vessel from which the-fluid or liquid is to be drawn.
Bis a tube which is connected with A by screw-' threads, as seen at O.
D is the valve-chamber, and
E i the valve.
- F is the valve-seat.
Packing may be employed on the seat, if desired, as seen in the drawing, or the face of the valve may be ground to the seat.
The valve E is attached to the inner tube G by a screw connection, as seen in the drawing.
It represents orifices in this inner or valve-tube below the seat of the valve. I I
It will be seen that the valve will be compressed or forced to its seat by the pressure of the water or other liquid,steam or gas, which it may be desired to discharge, the design being to apply the faucet or valve only when there is a head or pressure to force the valve to its scat.
When the valve is'raised the water or other liuid will find its way from the chamber I) beneath the valve through the holes 7:, and be discharged from the lower end of the tube G.
' I is a lever, which is rigidly attached to, the tube G tube B.
K is an inclined plane. One edge of the lever O is wedgeshapecL-as seen at L.
The under side of this wedge engages with the inclined plane when the lever is turned to open the valve, the effect of which is to raise the tube G, and, consequently, the valve from its seat, andthus allow the water to flow through the faucet.
The valve may be closed by turning back the lover, or the pressure on the valve maybe sufiicicnt to force thc lcver down the inclined plaue.
By this-arrangement it will be seen that no spring is employed, the. pressure of the water or other fluid J is a recess cut inv the bottom end. of the outer
