y soLoMoN PFLEGER, 0F READING, ASSIGNOR TO 1 HIMSELF AND JAMES SHOEMAKER PFLEGER, or TAMAQUA. PENNSYLVANIA.
Letters Patent No. 112, 187, dated March 7, 1871. p
i, seam meets, f Reading, county of Berks, State-of Pennsylvania, have invented an Improved Faucet, of whichthe following is a specification.-
Nature and Object of the I Mention. My invention cf n'sists of a faucet, Constructed, in a manner too fully described hereafter to need preliminary explanation, so that the pressure of the water in the will tend tomaintain the valve of the same in. close contact with its seat.
ma 3am of the Accompanying Drawing. Figure l is a sectional view of myimproved faucet; Figure 2, a transversesection on the line 1 2, fig. 1 and Eig-ure3, a sectional view, showing a modification.
General Description.
i To a conical seat in a casing, A, is adapted a conicalitube, B, open at both end s, and threaded at the smaller end, so that it maybe connectedlto a watersupply pipe.
A detachable cap, .3, which screws onto the casing A, covers-the upper, end of the tube B; and between this cap and the casing is secured a packing, It, which maintains a tight joint between the casing and the cap, but does not press upon the end of the tube B, so that the casing A may turn freely on the said tube.
The casing A is provided with a detachable handle, 0, a nozzle, I, on which, when' the casiug is turned to the position shown in fig. 1, communicates, through an opening, .x, in the casing, and through a corresponding opening, y, in the tube B, with the interior jlMPROVEMENT m FAucE'rs.
The Schedule referred to In these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
The pressure ofthe water within the tube Bagainst the'casing A tends to raise the latter, and thus maintain the stationary conical tube or valve B in co'htact with itsmovable seat, any increase of pressure (instead of increasing the tendency to leak, as in ordinary valves) the more effectually closing the joint.
The modification,-shown in fig. 3,.i 1'epresents a fancet intended for hot and cold water in kitchens, 85c.
' This faucet is similar to that above described, ex
ceptthat it is inverted, so that the weight of the cas- C lai'in.
A faucet, consisting of a stationary conical tubular valve B, open at the e'nd, and of a movable casing, A, having an outlet or nozzle, andfitted to and closing the end of the valve, so that the latter will be retained against its seat by the water with a pressure proportioned to the pressure of the water, as set forth.
In testimony whereof'I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
SOLOMON PELEGER.
