SPLASH GUARD FOR SINKS. APPLICATION FILED Die. 8. 1921.
1,408,812. I Patent dMar-7,1922.
. ATTORNEYS UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
SPLASH GUARDIOR SINKS.
Application filed December 8, 1921.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN J. LnrcrrroN, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Splash Guards for Sinks, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to splash guards for sinks and an object thereof is to provide an improved means by which a splash guard may be secured to sinks of different types. A further object of the invention is to provide an effective securing means for holding a splash guard upon a sink so that pressure on the guard will not tend to disconnect the securing means from the guard. I
To these and other ends, the invention consists of certain parts and combinations of parts, all of which will be hereinafter described, the novel features being pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a front view of a sink equipped with a guard;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the guard;
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary View of the guard in the sink showing one of the securing devices in position; and
Fig. 4C is an enlarged section through the sink and the guard showing the manner in which the securing devices cooperate with these two parts.
Referring to the illustrated embodiment of the invention 1 indicates a sink which as is now customary has a rolled upper edge 2. The guard 3 is in the form of a piece of sheet material with a laterally turned upper edge 4 and with one or more openings 5arranged in spaced relation to the lower edge.
The securing means is in this embodiment in the form of two clamping members each having a loop formation providing two spaced portions 6 and 7 and an enlarged bend 8 between them. Each clamping member is adapted to have the arm of the bend which carries the portion 6 passed through an opening 5 in order to engage the inner face of the guard plate 8 below the opening 5, as hown in Fig. 4. The clamp curves Specification of Letters Patent.

from the portion 6 outwardly so as to permit the arm carrying the portion 6 to be passed over the roll 2 of the sink. From the bend 8 the clamp curves inwardly to the portlon 7, so as to bring the portion 7 in close proximity to the outer wall of the sink 1. In the portion 7 a clamping screw or other adjustable clamping means 9 is adjustable so as to engage with the outer face of the sink in opposed relation to the abutting or engaging portion 6. The loop 8 is so formed that it permits the clamping member to be shifted up and down on the sink of the construction, shown in the drawmg, in order that the position of the guard with reference to the sink may be changed. Furthermore the bend 8 permits rolls of different shapes to be received therein thus adapting the ecuring means to sinks of different types.
After the clamping devices are separated from the splash guard, the structure as a whole may be readily cleaned and stored in a compact place. The clamping means effectively secures the splash guard in position and is so constructed that pressure on the splash guard will not tend to disconnect such clamping means from the guard. The device is inexpensive to manufacture.
What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 2- 1. A splash guard for sinks comprising a guard plate formed with an opening above its lower edge, and a clamping member passed through the opening and having a portion for engaging the guard plate below said opening and having also an adjustable inrelzlgns for engaging the outer wall of the s1 2. A splash guard for sinks comprising a guard plate formed with an opening above its lower edge, and a clamping member in the form of a loop having two arms one of which curves outwardly and is passed through the opening in the guard plate to engage the latter below the opening and the other of which curves inwardly and carries adjustable means for cooperating with the outer wall of the sink.
JOHN J. LEIGHTON.
