Yspeciafanfm of Letters Patent. Patntd Ju1y27, 192() Application led December 20, 19,19. Serial No.` 346,245
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, SIMON J. CONNELL, a' citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of New York, borough of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Valve, of which the following is a full, clear, and' exact description.
This invention relates to improvements in valves, and more particularly to a valve for steam traps, the purpose of the valve being to permit the exhaust of water of condensation lwhen the latter reaches a prede-v termined level, an object of the invention being to provide a valve which can be quickly assembled, which will maintain a tight closure except when moved to open position, and which will comprise but two main parts coupled together in an improved manner and without employing nuts, bolts, or other removable devices for the purpose.
Y A further object is to provide a valve consisting of two members, one movable relative to the other and the members held in operative position without the employment of a third part. Y
lVith these and other objects in view the invention consists in certain novel features of construction, and combinations and arrangements of parts,- as will be more fully hereinafter described and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a sectional elevation illustrating my improved valve in a steam trap;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged View in section on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a view in section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2;
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of one member of the valve; n
Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the other member of the valve;
Fig. 6 is a sectional plan view illustrating, a modification; and
Figs. 7,8, 9 and 10 are views illustrating another modification. Y
1 represents a steam trap having an inlet pipe 5 for conveying the water of condensa tion to the trap, and it is, of course, to be understood that my invention is not limited to any particular form of trap as it may be utilized in connection with any well-known typ inuse. Y- y improved valve comprises two members A and B. The member` A consists'of a tubular journal 2 having a screw threaded end 3 and a wrench receiving enlargement 4c adjacent the screw threaded end 3. The journal 2 is of cylindrical form and is provided with two longitudinal series of outlet ports 6. lThe free end of the journal'is closed and made with a reduced extension 7 having an integral key 8' at `its outer end. The member B comprisesa fork 9 which is integral with an'arm 10 and circular bearing rings 11 are formed on the ends of the fork 9 and fit the journal 2. The ringsrll are connected by integral webs 12 which'constitute valves and these webs; have curved inner' faces curved concentrically with the journal and move on the surface'of the journal so that they form,'in effect, a ground joint and operate to close and open the ports 6 as seen most clearly in Fig. 3. vThe webs 12 are also tapering at their outersurfaces so that they present relatively sharp edges 13 Which tend to out any accumulated sediment or other material which may form on the outer face of the journal and therefore maintain a clean valve seat to perfectly perform the function intended.
The free end of the arm 10 is screw threaded, as shown at 14, for the vattachment of a float 15 so that the latter is caused to move vertically by the Water of condensation 16 which accumulates in the bottom of the trap. An integral elbow 17 is formed on one end of the fork 9 and is provided with a ring 1S to fit the extension 7 'of the journal 2. This ring 18 has-a keyway 19 therein which permits the ring to move onto the extension over the key 8..
In order to position the member B on the member A, it is necessarythat the member B be in a vertical position which is a position that is never assumed by the normal operation of the device.v After the member B is moved onto the member A, it is swung dow/n into operative position and the key 8 serves to prevent disconnection of the two members. In operation, the iioat 15 causes the member' B to turn on the member A and when the water reaches a predetermined level, thevalves 12 open the ports G and allow the water to escape.. The float descends nipple is provided on the extension which is adapted to be projected through the wall of the trap. This modification enables a somewhat different assemblage from the pre- I may be of any desired formation and which comprises a cylindrical -portion fitting around therings 11 and the outer faces of the valves 12. The ends of the strainer 22 Y areflared outwardly, as shown at 23, and
are positioned under integral hooks 24 on Y the member B. These. Vhooks 24 extend throughout the transverse dimension of the member and enable the strainer to be readily positioned therein when moved'transversely of the member or removed from the member whenever occasion may require. Furthermore, this form of connection permits the member B to carry with it the strainer so that Vwhenever the coupling members are disconnected, the strainer will be removed with the member B and does not interfere in any way with the operation of the-parts.
To prevent accidental lateral movement of the strainer on the valve, a recess 25 is provided in the upper hook 24 and an enlargement 26 .-is formed on the strainer which springs into thisrecess and prevents possibility of accidental displacement.
This strainer prevents any possibility of YWaste orothei material from plugging or entanglingthe valve, and, of course, can be used or not, as desired.
W'hile I have described my improved valve in connection witha steam trap, it is obvious ythat the invention is -not limited to this particular use as theV valve may be used for controlling, throttling, or regulating water, steam, gas, air, oil or otherfluids, and vapors, and may be operated bymean's of a oat, aslshown, or by means of any other.;movable element which is ,applicable for any of the uses abovelindicated. Y Y
Various lother slight changes may be made in the general form and arrangement of parts described-without departing yfrom the invention, and hence I do not limit myself to the precise `details set forth, but'conlsider myself at liberty to make such'changes and alterations as fairly fall within f the vspirit and scope of the :appended claims.
