Letters Patent No. 108,824, dated Noveniber 1, 1870.
IMPROVEMENT IN FAUCETS.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ABEL PUTXAM, J r., of Saratoga Springs,-in the county of Saratoga and State of New York, have invented anew and improved Faucet; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing making a part of this specification, in which Figure l is a longitudinal vertical section Figure-2 is a side view, as adjusted for transporta tion.
Figure 3 is a front view, the spigot being removed.
This invention relates to that class of faucets used in connection with vessels containin g beer, soda-water, and other liquids, and compressed air, carbonic-acid gas, or other expansive gas, and it particularly relates to the class of such faucets in which a plug containing a passage for the fluid, a valve to close it, and an air-ventis inserted into the barrel or vessel, and is 0p-' era-ted in connection with a detachable spigot.
My invention consists in the means hereinafter described for readily effecting a communication between the air-vent of the plug and that of the spigot when the latter is in use, and the combination therewith of the spring-valve and other parts of the plug.
in the drawing- A is the plug, containing an air-vent, a, and a passage, a, for the fluid, closed by means of a spring valve, 1) this inserted into the barrel or vessel B, and
fastened thereto by means of rivets or screws rrpassing through a collar, 0, cast on the plug and fitting The stem of the valve extends through the whole length of the plug,
and when the valve is seated projects slightly from the end thereof. 1
The barrel is filled by attaching the hose or fillingtube to the outer end of the plug, and screwing it on till it presses against the end of the valve-stem and opens the valve. When the vessel is full the pressure of the liquid or gas closes the valve as soon as the hose is removed.
A cap, E, may then'be screwed on, as shown in fig. 2, closing both the passages a and a, and leaving the vessel ready for transportation. \Vhen it arrives at its destination and the liquid is to be used, the cap.
E is removed and a spigot, S, substituted in its place.- The screwing on of the spigot opens the valve, as shown in fig. 1, and leaves the liquid under the control of the cock D.
In the face of the collar 0 is a groove, a, concentric with the larger passage to of plug A.
An air-vent, a is made in the spigot, the end of which, when the spigot is screwed on, terminates in the annular groove 11, so that, however the spigot may be turned, the communication between the passages a a through the groove a is always open.
When the cock D is open it opens the air-vent a and when closed it closes it, so that there is no danger of the air-vent being left open thoughtlessly.
Having thus described my invention,
\Vhat I claim as new, and desire to secure by Let-" tcrs Patent, is- V 1. In a faucet, the conibination of the annular groove 11. with the passages a (0 as and for the purpose described.
2. The plug A, having the valve 1), passage to, and
groove 11-, in combination with the spigot S, having the passage a and the cock D, substantially as and for the purpose specified The above specification of my invention signed by me this 26th day of September, A. D. 1870.
