COMBINED BUNG AND FAUCET.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 4L, iwi?.
Application filed August 15, 1914. Serial No. 856,922.
To all 'whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, SIDNEY RosENFnLD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga and State of Chio, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Combined Bungs and Faucets, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to faucet connections for barrels and similar receptacles and more particularly to connections which are employed for securing a reversible faucet in place. It is the general object of the invention to provide a construction which will permit a faucet to be applied to a barrel (or similar receptacle) in a particularly convenient manner, with the body of the faucetI projecting into the body of the barrel (for purposes of shipment), and which will enable the faucet to be conveniently reversed and applied to the barrel when the barrel reacher the consignee. More limitedly, the invention comprises a special construction of bushing and a cooperating arrangement of barrel parts which enables the bushing to be conveniently applied to theI barrel or re ceptacle, which will enable the threading of the said bushing to be accomplished in a very convenient manner, and which will facilitate the removal of the entire contents of the barrel when the latter is turned up on end.
Tn the drawing forming part hereof, Figure l represents a sectional detail through the head of a barrel (or other receptacle) showing the reversible faucet applied thereto; Fig. Q-is a similar view showing the faucet reversed; and Fig. 3 an elevation of the bushing and the adjacent part of the barrel head, looking from the inside of the barrel shown in Fig. l.
Describing by reference characters the various parts illustrated herein, 1 `denotes the body of a receptacle, which may be a metal barrel, and 2 the head of such receptacle. The head and body are conveniently united by bending the metal of the head, adjacent its periphery, upon itself, as indicated at 3, and inserting the cylindrical end 4 of the body between the metal parts and then suitably uniting the parts 3 and 4in any approved manner.
The head is provided with an opening 5, and the metal surrounding said opening is preferably pressed outwardly, as vshown at 6, to form an outwardly projecting seat for the bushing. l This bushing comprises a short inwardly extending octagonal portion 7 on the outer end of which is a radial flange 8 by which the bushing may be secured, in any approved manner, to the outwardly projecting part 6 of the head surrounding the opening 5. By making a portion of the eX- ternal surface of the bushing body angular. it may be conveniently clamped during the threading operation, at which time the outer end of the cylindrical bore 7a of the body is provided with the thread 9. This thread preferably extends only part of the length of the interior of the body, whereby the unthreaded portion constitutes a stop for the externally threaded plug 10 on the base of a faucet 1l. This faucet is of the reversible type and is adapted to be inserted through the bushing intoV the barrel (the parts then being in the position shown in Fig. 2) or to be reversed and employed for its usual purpose, the parts then being in the position shown in Fig. 1. The faucet is also provided with an angular portion 12 and a hollow angular inlet projection 13 whereby it may be conveniently screwed in place within the bushing, in either position. The projection 13 is provided with a removable plug 13b which will be applied thereto when thel faucet is in the position shownl in Fig. 2 but which will be removed when in the position shown in Fig. l.
As will be seen by reference to the drawings, when the bushing is in place with the flange 8 bearing against the seat 6, the inner end of thebushing will project substantially as far as the inner surface' of the barrel head. The recesses 14 in the inner end of the bushing enable practically the entire contents of the barrel to be withdrawn when the barrel is standing upright. This construction secures the advantages of the externally angular body and at the same time does not interfere with the complete removal of the contents of the barrel. Notwithstanding the fact that the head of the barrel is shown as projected outwardly about the bushing aperture, the projection of the chime is sufficient to protect the parts of the faucet and bushing during the period of shipment..
Having thus described my invention, what T claim 1s:-
l. The combination with a bushing having an opening whose outer end is of greater diameter than its inner end, said bushing being formed with internal screw threads, of a faucet having an externally threaded cylindrical base whose diameter is greater than that of any other portion of the faucet, the thickness of said base being approximately the same as the depth of the threaded opening of said bushing and said external threads extending continuously from one face of the base to the other, whereby the faucet may be presented to the bushing with either end foremost and the cylindrical base screwed home therein to secure a tight closure.
2. The combination with a bushing having an opening whose outer end is of greater diameter than'its inner end, said bushing being formed with internal screw threads, of a faucet having a cylindrical bas'e whose diameter is greater than that of any other portion of the faucet, said cylindrical base being provided with continuous and uninterrupted external screw threads from one face thereof to the other, whereby the faucet may be presented to the' outer end of the bushing with either end foremost and its cylindrical base screwed hometherein to secure a tight closure. v
In testimony whereof, I hereunto affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
