DRINKING-SPOUT ATTACHMENT FOR FAUCETS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 15, 19 13.
Application filed February 28, 1913. Serial No. 751,370.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, PAUL A. SoiIUcIIAn'r, a subject of the Empire of Austria-Hungary, and a resident; of the city of Portland, count-y of Multnomah, State of Oregon, have i11- vented a new and useful Improvement in DrinkingSpout Attachments for Faucets, of which the following is a specification.
l /iy invention relates to dcvicesintended' may be easily attached to or detached from any water faucet without, requiring the use of supplementary plumbing fixtures, or defacing those already installed; and, furthermore, a device which will not in any way interfere with the normal operation and use of the water faucet for other purposes.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a drinking spout attachment-of open form whereby absolute cleanliness may be obtained at all times, thus satisfying all sanitary requirements as the open or exposed surface of the spout, as distinguished from those spouts heretofore known which have been of tubular form, permits cleaning or wiping at any time by the useror by an attendant without requiringdetachmentor the use of special appliances.
The invention consists, first, of a drinking spout. of open or channel form; second, a spout of that character which is adapted to be moved laterally into and out of operative posit-ion when applied to a faucet; third, 2. spout of the character set forth having a vertically adjustable connection for fastening it to a faucet, whereby-the spout may be adjusted vertically to adjust the jet of water istuing therefrom.
In the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 is a side elevation of a water faucet showing my device attached thereto; my device is shown in longitudinal vertical section so as to illustrate more clearly its construction; this view also illustrates how the stream of water is directed from the faucet so as to make it convenient 'for a person to drink from such stream. This view further shows howthespout member of my device may be adjusted in orderto properly position the stream of water; Fig. 2 is a plan detailof the drinking spout of my device .without the attaching means; this gure illustrates the adjustments of which the spout member is capable; the broken outlines of the spout showing the latter so moved as to permit the normal use of the faucet; Fig. 3 shows, on a larger scale, a cross section of the faucet, and the means whereby the drinking member of my attachment is clamped-to any water-faucet; this view is taken approximately on the line 33 of Fig. '1; and Figs.
4 to 6 are cross-sectional views taken ap proximately on lines 4-4, 55, and 66 of Fig. 1 respectively.
My attachment consists of a spring-band, 6, adapted to fit over the spout of any common faucet. To the band 6 is secured a? U-shaped bracket, 0, by -means of a bolt and nut e, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3. A springsteel retaining finger d is fastened to one leg of the bracket 0, as convenient, for example the bolt e and a rivet f. The rear endj of the spout g is formed as an ear, by means of which the spout is rotatably bolted to the lower portion or cross-bar of the bracket 0. The ear 7' is so made that when rotated on its pivot (the bolt) is, as shown in the broken lines of Figs. 2 and 3, it will bear against and push outward the spring member d. And after it has been rotated to lateral position, the spring member (Z will act to hold said spout in place. The spring, a? will serve in like manner for holding 'the spout g in drinking position.
The drinking spout g is curved to the form shown in Figs. 1, 4, 5 and 6, so as to turn the stream of water emitted from the faucet from its downward to an upward direction, as illustrated in Fig. 1. The drink ing spout g is made in the form of a sluice or channel. The discharge end of the spout g is tapered as shown, in order'to render it more convenient when applying the mouth for drinking. The sides h are made higher 100 at the two extremities (see Figs. 4 and 6) than at the middle, in order that an ample volume of the stream of water the faucet, a, will be retained by the spout; and, furthermore, making the sides higher at the forward tapered end of the spout causes the stream of water to be so guided as to bring it to a proper form for use at the discharge or drinking end of the spout. By having the sides lower at the middle portion of the spout, the surplus water mayflowing from.
When water has been turned off, after having used my drinking spout, a small amount would normally remain in the lowest or middle portion of the spout. To drain such water, I have drilled a small drainorifice at i.
Being of open or channel form, my spout can be wiped out by the user or an attendant at any time without requiring detachment from the faucet or the use of special appliances which is a decided advantage over those spouts which are of tubular construction and require detachment or a special appliance to clean them and whose interior cannot be observed by the user, whereas all parts of my spout are exposed and readily observable.
I claim:
1. A drinking spout of open channel form arranged to direct a downwardly flowing stream of liquid under pressure upwardly in the form of a drinking jet, and means for fastening said spout to a faucet. v
2. A drinking spout of open channel form arranged to direct a downwardly flowing stream of liquid under pressure upwardly in the form of a drinking jet, and means for fastening said spout to a faucet, said spout being movable laterally into and out of operative position in relation to the faucet. I
3. A drinking spout of open channel form arranged to direct a downwardly flowing stream of liquid under pressure upwardly in the form of a drinking jet, and means for fastening said spout to a faucet, said spout being adjustable vertically to adjust the jet of liquid issuing therefrom.
