DISINFECTING DEVICE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 19, 1916.
Application filed February 16, 1915. Serial No. 8,672.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE E. BATES, a cltizen of the United States, and a resident of Syracuse, in the county of Onondaga and State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Disinfecting Device, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has for its object adisinfecting device, particularly applicable for flush closets, which device is particularly simple in construction and highly eflicient and durable in use; and the invention con-' sists in the novel combinations and constructions hereinafter set forth and claimed.
In describing this invention, reference is had to the accompanying drawings, in which like characters designate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a side elevation, partly broken away, and partly in section, of this disini of any desirable form, size and construction,
the container being here shown as having a base plate 2 adapted to be adjustably secured to a supporting plate 3 attachable to a wall of the flush closet tank 4, or other support.
As here shown, the supporting plate 3 is bent up out of sheet metal and has its lengthwise margins 5 folded over into a position opposed to the body of the supporting plate forming channels in which the margins 6 of the base 2 run. The plate 3 is also formed with a flange 7 at its top or lapping overthe upper edge of one of the walls of the flush tank 4 and with a lengthwise slot 8 through whichthe clamping screws 9 associated with the base 2 extend. Said screws 9 thread into suitable nuts, not shown, associated with the supporting plate 3. Any other means may be provided for attaching the container in position.
The container 1 is in thiselnbodiment of my invention shown as formed with an inlet nozzle 10 on its top near one end thereof, an
outlet or discharge nozzle 11 directly below the nozzle 10, it being here shown as located in one end of the container 1, and a well 12 in the bottom of the container, the well being located near the end wall opposite to that in which the outlet 11 is located. The inlet nozzle 10 is provided with a suitable closure or cap 13 threading thereon. The outlet 10 is'formed with a funnel-shaped mouth 14 located in the container in position to receive the disinfectant from the ladle.
15 is the ladle movable upwardly and downwardly in the container into position to discharge through the outlet 11. The means supporting or carrying the ladle 15 is movable about an axis, and is here shown as a lever arm 16, pivoted at 17 within the container near the top thereof and near the end wall opposite to that in which the discharge or outlet 11 is located.
As here shown, the lever arm 16 is mounted on a rock shaft which extends to the outside of the. container 1 and on which is mounted a rock arm 18 to which arm 18 is connected means for actuating the carrier or support 16. This means, as here shown, is a float 19 connected by a link 20 to the rock arm 18. The ladle15 is pivoted at 21 to the free end of the lever arm 16, the lever arm being bifurcated and the branches thereof extending on opposite sides of the ladle 15. The ladle is formed with a discharge chute, or nozzle 22 and is weighted so that it normally stands with the nozzle projecting upwardly.
The lever arm 16 is actuated by the weight of the float 19 to carry the ladle upwardly into the position shown in dotted lines in Fig.1 as the water recedes in the flush closet tank, and means is provided for tip ping the ladle so that the disinfectant therein will be discharged through the chute 22 into the funnel 14 of the'outlet l1. Said means includes a shoulder 23 projecting from the ladle between the pivot 21 of the ladle and the end of the chute 22, the shoulder 23 extending laterally and engaging with a horizontally arranged track 24 on the side of the container, the track having an arc-shaped portion 25 near one end thereof The ladle is normally arranged in the well 12 so that nearly all of the disinfectant .tainer .aom. that at which-the outlet is 10- 'ment.
can be dipped out, or delivered, and as the ladle swings in an arc the bottom of the well is inclined as at 26.
In operation, the device is attached at the proper height in the flush closet tank and as the water recedes during the flushing operation, the ladle or dipper 15 moves upwardly lifting the ladle from the position shown in full lines in Fig. 1, to that shown in dotted lines, and during this lifting movement the shoulder 23 of the ladle engages the track 24: tipping the ladle so that it will discharge into the outlet 11 and as the lever approaches the limit of its upward move- After the shoulder 23 has engaged the track, said shoulder 23 is drawn into the arc-shaped portion of the track so that the rear end of the ladle is thrown forward, while the free end of the chute 22 is drawn backwardly, thus practically inverting the ladle so that all of the liquid will be discharged therefrom. As the water again fills into the flush tank the float is lifted thereby and the parts restored to their usual position.
Owing to the fact that the ladle is lifted into the nozzle 10, the height of the water in the tank can be brought to a maximum height, if necessary, without interfering with the operation of this device,'and owing to the well 12 nearly all of the liquid will be dipped out by the ladle.
Any other suitable means may be employed for operating the lever 16.
This disinfecting device is articularly advantageous in that it can be readily attached in position, and further in that the parts thereof cannot readily get out of order or adjustment.
What I claim is 1. A disinfecting device comprising a container adapted to be located in a box, the contents of which receive the disinfectant,
the container having an outlet opening at itstop near one end, a lever arm located in the contalner and pivoted on a horizontal axls at a point remote from the outlet and located near the top and the opposite end of the container from that near which the outlet is located, a ladle carried by the free end of the lever and movable thereby toward and from the outlet into and out of position to discharge thereinto, and means for op erating the lever, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. The combination of a flushing tank, of a disinfecting device therein comprising a container located in the tank, the container being in the form of an elongated box having an outlet at one end, a lever arm located in the container and pivoted on a horizontal axis at a point remote from the outlet and near the top and the oppositeend of the concated, a ladle carried at the free end of the lever and movable. thereby toward the outlet to discharge thereinto and away from the outlet into the liquid in the container, and
means in the flushin'g'tank connected to the axis of the lever to operate the lever, substantially as and for the purpose described.
