HENRY GIBBS, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIG-NOR TO W. D. ALLEN MANUFACTURING COMPANY, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, A CORPORATION.
LAWN -SPRINKLER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed October 19, 1912.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, HENRY Games, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of Chicago, county of Cook, and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Lawn-Sprinklers, of which I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming a part hereof.
My present invention has relation to that class of lawn sprinklers in which provision is made whereby the sprinkler may be caused to throw either a solid stream of water or a sheet of spray.
The invention consists in the features of novelty hereinafter described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing and particularly pointed out in the claim at the end of this specification.
Figure 1 is a plan view of a sprinkler embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a view in central vertical section on line 22 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 2, with the parts in diflerent position. Fig. 4 is an inverted plan view. Fig. 5 is an enlarged view in cross section on line 55 of Fig. 2. Fig. 6 is a front end view with the deflecting plate omitted.
My improved sprinkler is shown as comprising a nozzle having an expanded portion 5 that is preferably screw threaded upon its interior for convenient coupling to a hose or pipe. In front of the expanded portion 5 the nozzle is formed with a reduced part 6 that is formed with a discharge opening 7 that leads through a spout or nipple 8. In the preferred form of my invention, the opening 7 is formed eccentrically with respect to the portion 6 of the nozzle. Around the portion 6 of the nozzle is formed a peripheral groove 9 within which sets a sleeve or yoke 10 to which is suitably connected a deflecting plate 11. As shown, the sleeve or yoke 10 has its ends reverted, as at 10, to overlap the edges of the deflecting plate 11, and by this means the deflecting plate 11 is rigidly connected to the sleeve, While the sleeve is held in a manner free to revolve around the nozzle or permit the nozzle to be turned Within the sleeve.
The deflecting plate 11 has its outer end bent toward the aXis of the discharge nozzle, but the angle of the outer portion of the deflecting plate and its length will be such that, when the plate 11 is in one posi tion, its outer end will fall outside the line of the discharge opening 7 of the nozzle, while, when the plate is in other positions, it will project more or less in front of the opening 7 and into the path of the stream of water issuing from such opening.
In order to better retain the deflecting plate 11 in its adjusted position, I prefer to form the annular shoulder 15 adjacent the end'of the nozzle with one or more fiattened surfaces 15, so that when such flattened surface 15 is in engagement with the inner face of the plate 11, the elasticity of the metal of the plate 11 and sleeve 10 will cause the inner face of the plate to be held in snug engagement with the flattened face 15 and thus guard against any accidental shifting of the plate.
From the foregoing description it will be seen that when the plate is in the position shown in Fig. 3 of the drawing, the stream of water issuing from the discharge opening 7 will pass across the top of the deflecting plate without contact therewith, but when the nozzle is turned within the sleeve 10, or when the sleeve and plate are turned about the nozzle, as, for example, in the position shown in Fig. 2, the deflecting plate will be brought into the path of the stream of water issuing through the opening 7 and will cause this stream of water to be broken into spray.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
A lawn sprinkler comprising a discharge nozzle having a .reduced cylindrical part provided with a discharge opening formed eccentrically of said reduced portion of the nozzle, said reduced portion of the nozzle the edges of said deflecting plate and suphaving a peripheral groove, a deflecting porting the same.
plate having its inner end extending along one side of said nozzle and having its free 43 end bent toward the center of the nozzle,
and a yoke adjustable in said peripheral groove and having flanged ends engaging HENRY GIBBS.
