Description
UNITED STATES PATENT 0EE1cE JAMES ALBEE, OF CHELSEA, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPROVEMENT IN WATER-CLOSETS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 136,199, dated February 25, 1873.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES ALBEE, of Chelsea, of the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Water-Closets and do hereby declare the same to be fully described in thc following speciiication and represented in the accompanying drawing, of which- Figure l is a horizontal section, and Figs. 2 and 3 are vertical and transverse sections, of a water-closet with my improvement or invention. Fig.A 4 is a top view, and Fig. 5 a
transverse section, of the annular Ventilator which circumscribes the top ofthe pan.
The purpose of my invention is to ventilate the pau in order to prevent the escape through the seat-opening of any o'ensive odor after a deposit of feces in the pan.
To accomplish this I make use of a hollow annulus, A, formed with a groove or channel, a, to receive, rest upon, and iit to the upper edge of the pan B, and I provide such annulus, on its inner periphery, with a series of holes, as shown at b, and, on its outer periphery, withan educt, c, to lead into a pipe or tlue for the discharge of the vitiated air. The seat is shown iat C as constructed with a seathole, d, of 'a Idiameter less than the inner diameter of the annular ventilator, all being as shown.
In practice theventilator made and arranged with a water-closet pan and seat in manner as described has been found to be highly effective, and to thoroughly prevent the escape through the seat of any offensive odor. Being arranged on the top of the pan and immediately underneath the seat, and having its inducts disposed jaround the seat -opening, it readily intercepts and carries oft' any gases from deposits in the pan. The openings into the ventilators being arranged in close proximity to the position Where the air in the pan comes in contact with the posterior of a party 'While sitting upon the seat, readily receiveV the warmed air, which, passing through the i.
ventilator, induces a corresponding influx of cooler air downward through the seat, thereby preventing the escape of odor upward through the seat.
I claim- The annular ventilator, substantially as described, and also as combined and arranged with the water-closet pan, or with such and the seat, essentially as specified.
. JAMES ALBEE.
