SOAP-SUPPLYING DEVICE FOR GLASS WASHERS.
The object of the invention is to provide a device adapted to be interposed in a water line or pipe, and adapted for applying soap or a cleansing agent to the water passing therethrough. i
It is also within the scope of the invention to provide an appliance of the nature indicated and embodying the features above noted, which appliance is comparatively simple and inexpensive in construction, as
well as being convenient, practical and efficient in use.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as, the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed can be made within the scope of what is. claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein- Figure 1 is a view illustrating the appa= ratus, parts being shown in section, and parts being broken away. Fig. 2 is a cross section of the soap supplying device, taken on the line 22 of Fig. 1.
The soap supplying device, which is adapted to be interposed in the water line or pipe, embodies an upright cylindrical casing 1. having a convex bottom 2, and convexed top or upper end 3. The top or upper end 3 of the casing or tank '1 is provided at one side of its center with a filling .opening 4, which is normally closed by a screw plug or cap 5 that may be removed for filling the tank with powdered soap or an equivalent cleansing agent.
The tank 1 is provided with a lower inlet, consisting of an inlet member 6 threaded or otherwise engaged through one side of the Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 7, 1916.
Application filed February 27, 1915. Serial No. 10,989.
tank 1 adjacent the bottom or lower end 2 of the tank, and the inner end of the member 6 is provided with an outlet nipple 7 turned or curved to one side. The water in let pipe 8 is threaded or otherwise engaged lnto'the member 6, and supplies Water into the tank 1 through the member 6 and its nipple 7. The nipple 7 will direct water around the walls of the tank 1,-whereby the water will have a whirling or spiral motion when passing from the lower end to the upper end of the tank, to thereby agitate the contents of the tank.
Threaded or otherwise engaged through the central portion of the top 3 of the tank, is a tubular member or sleeve 9, having a depending perforated nozzle 10 within the tank, and an outlet pipe 11 for the tank 1 is'threaded or otherwise engaged to the upper end of the tubular member or sleeve 9. The apertured or perforated nozzle 10 depends centrally or axially within the tank 1, and the apertures. thereof are restricted to prevent the excessive flow of'the particles of soap or cleansing agent therethrough from within the tank. i
The pipe 11, together with the pipe 8, provides a water supply line in which the tank or casing 1 of the soap supplying device is interposed and the pipe 11 extends to a controlling or regulating valve 12. A clear water pipe 13 is also connected to the valve 12, and an outlet pipe 14 extends from the valve 12 to an ordinary glass washer 15. The glass washer 15 may be of any suit- The three-way valve 12 embodies a casing 16 having the ports 17, 18 and 19 into which the ends of the respective pipes 11, 13 and 14 are engaged. A rotary spigot. 20 is journalecl within the casing 16 and the ports 17, 18 and 19 extend to the spigot. The spigot is provided with a lateral or trans verse passage 21 therethrough which is of such shape as to bring the ports 17 and 18 into communication with the port 19, and whereby the spigot 20 may be utilized for controlling the amount of water flowing from each of the pipes 11. and 13'through vthe valve to the pipe 14. The spigot 20 soap, or equivalent cleansing agent, is introv the pipes 13 and 14 in communication, clear duced into the tank 1 through the opening 4 when the plug or cap 5 is removed, and
then after the 'plug or cap is reapplied to the tank, the water may-be allowed to flow into and through the tank 1 from the pipe 8. When the apparatus is not in use, the port 19 may be closed to thereby close the passage through the pipe 14, by swinging the spigot 20, properly, and when the spigot is swung to the position as illustrated in Fig. 1, itwill bring the pipes 11 and 13 into communication with the pipe 14 so as allow the water to flow from each of the-pipes 11 and-13 into the pipe 14 and to the washer 15. The water in passing through the tank will have a whirling motion therein, to agitate the soap or cleansing agent, and the water will dissolve a portion of the soap or cleansing agent and carry the same therewith into the pipe 11. Clear water is supplied through the pipe 13 to the valve 12, while the soapy water is supplied through the pipe 11 to the valve 12, and by controlling the spigot 20 it is possible to vary the proportions of clear and soapy water admitted to the pipe 14, in order that the proportion of soap or cleansing agent con.-
tained' in the water delivered through the' pipe 14 to the washer 15 will be as desired. It is evident, also. that the spigot 20 may be swung to close either of the ports 17 and 18, but to-leave one or the other of the pipes 11 and 13 in communication with the pipe 14. Thus, when the'port 17 is closed with water will be delivered to the washer, whereas if the port 18 is closed, with the pipes 11 and 14 in communication, the soapy water from the tank 1 will be supplied, without being diluted by the clear water, to the washer. The spigot 20 may thus be con-- trolled for either cutting off the flow of Water tothe pipe 14, or stopping the flow of I water from either of the pipes 11 and 13,
and for regulating the amount of water flowing from the pipes 11 and 13 into the pipe 14. llt isthus possible for the operator to regulate the apparatus so that the water deliveredto the washing'device will contain the proper amount of soap or cleansing agent to'efiectively wash or clean the glasses, milk bottles or other articles, and to prevent the same being soaped excessively. The advantages of supplying soap or other cleansing agent to the water will be obvious, since it will increase the efficiency of the washer, as over the mere use of clear water, as is ordinarily done.
Particular'attention is directed to the fact that the nipple? causes the Water to have a whirling motion within the tank, and due to centrifugal action the cleansing agent will becarried around the walls of the tank. The cleansing agent is thoroughly agitated and mixed W1th the water, and at the same time, the body of the cleansing agent is moved away from the nozzle 10 to prevent the excessive discharge of the cleansing agent. The whirling motion of the water i will thus raise the cleansing agent and carry it around the walls-of the tank, agitating the agent thoroughly, and the water in reaching the upper end of the tank will flow inwardly and thence through the apertures of the nozzle. The provision and location of the no-zzlelO is therefore of-importance in connection with the nipple 7 Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
1. A device of the character described,
comprising a tank having a lower water inlet member at one side provided with a nipple turned to one side to give the-Water an upward whirling motion' withinv the tank, and the tank having an upper central depending perforated nozzle forming an outlet therefor.
2.. In a device of the character described, a tank for holding a' cleansing agent. a water supply pipe connected to one side of the tank adjacent the lower end thereof for delivering water into the tank and giving'the water an upward whirling motion, a central depending perforated nozzle carried by the upper end of said tank, and piping connected to said nozzle and having a controlling valve therein.
In testimonv that I claim the foregoing as my own, Thave hereto aiiixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
