SPOUT ron BUCKETSY.
Application filed September 17, 1921. Serial No. 501,401."
T all 107mm it may concern.
Be it known that I, ALBERT G. SOHERER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State, of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in a Spout for Buckets, of which the following is a specification.
My present invention relates to buckets, pails and similar containers for receiving and pouring liquids, and has more particular relation to the spout for directing the flow of liquid from the bucket.
Among the divers objects of my present invent-ion is the profision of a novel arrangement of a spout for a bucket whereby the effect of the height of water in the container or hydrostatic head upon the rate of flow of the stream of liquid being discharged is materially reduced so as to prevent the stream of liquid being forced with too great violence from, or carried too far beyond, the mouth of the spout. The structure I have designed is especially applicable for buckets or pails to be used for pouring water into the radiators of motor vehicles. In this conncction. it is well known that the tube or inlet port of the radiator is of a restricted character, being usually two to three inches in diameter, so that when water is poured therein from a spout of the bucket or pail, the rate of flow created by the hydrostatic head operating through therestricted discharge end or mouth of the spout is so great as to frequently carry the stream beyond the edge of the radiator tube and otherwise interfere with the pouring of the liquid. WVith my novel structure I am able to tilt the bucket to or near its greatest inclination but prevent the stream of water discharging with too great force and being carried more than two inches beyond the end of the spout.
I prefer to carry out my invention in substantially the manner hereinafter fully set forth and as more particularly pointed out in the claims, reference being now made to the accompanying drawings which form a part of this specification.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a fragmental vie-w partially in section and partially in side elevation of a radiator tube showing a bucket tilted in the act of pouring with my improvements incorporated in the spout of the bucket.
Figure 2 is a longitudinal section through the spout of the bucket showing my improvements in plan therein, the view being taken on line 2-2, Figure 1. I
Figure 3 is a transverse view through" the spout of the bucket and taken on line-'3 3, Figure 1. i
In the drawings, 1 have employed the same reference characters to indicate the same parts throughout the several views.
lVhile the improvements I have here-in dis-- closed are capable of adaptation to buckets or palls with spouts of various types, I have," for the purpose of convenience. illustrated my present invention in connection with andi as applied to the structure setforth in my Jo-pending application for Letters "Patent, filed August 8th, 1921, Serial Number 490,- 441, for a bucket, pail, or the like.
By reference to Figure 1, it'will beseen this type of bucket comprises the usual cy-' lindrical side-wall 5 having a hood or guard 6 and the usual carrying bail 7 A discharge opening 8 is made in the bucket wall below the juncture between the same and hood 7, and a suitably shaped spout 9 is mounted in said opening to facilitate the directing and control of the outwardly flow ing stream 'of water discharged from the bucket. The spout shown herein is of substantially frustrum-pyramidal form, taper ing towards its outer or discharge'end and the same is reinforced by a strap 10. of metal extending from the outer end of thespoutto the lower portion of the bucket wall. Lateral lips 11 are provided to permit engagement with the rim of the radiator tube 12, in the manner shown in Figure 1 of the drawings, to prevent the spout slipping when resting upon the edge of rim of the receptacle into which it is discharging the liquid.
When the bucket or pail is tilted to the position for pouring (Fig. 1), the pressure or hydrostatic head created by the height of water acting through the tapered form of the spout is so great that the water is forced in a stream which rushes out of the spout so rapidly that it is carried eightto ten inches or more from the discharge end of the spout which under the conditions illustrated in Fig. 1 would carry the stream of water over vided a dam or battle within the interior of the spout intermediate its ends so that the rate of flow of the stream is reduced before reaching the discharge end of the spout but will retain its cross sectional volume after passing the baflie owing to the tapering of the spout so as to discharge in a solid stream under reduced pressure. This baffle may be made in divers forms, but I prefer the structure disclosed herein, which consists of a piece of sheet metal bent obliquely intermediate its ends to provide a securing portion 13 that lies flat against the outer wall of spout 9, in the manner shown in Figs. 1 and 2, and is secured to the wall in any suitable manner such as soldering, spot-welding, or otherwise. The remaining portion 1a of the metal extends upwardly and outwardly towards the opposite or rearwall of the spout (Fig. 1), and has its side edges bent laterally at right angles to portion 14 to provide outstanding flanges 15, 15, that extend parallel alongside the lateral or side walls that connect the front and rear walls of the spout. If de sired, these flanges 15, 15, may be spaced a slight distance from the side-walls of the spout to providenarrow channels 16, 16, between the same, and also if desired the up per outer edge of the portion 14 may be cut away or concaved, as at 17, to assist in increasing the volume of the flow passing through the spout over the dam or baffle.
From the foregoing it will be seen that the effect of the pressure or the hydrostatic head is materially reduced, and the means employed therefor being back of or intermediate the ends of the pouring spout, the cross-sectional volume of the flow is restored before the stream leaves the discharge end of the spout.
What I claim as new is:
1. A spout for receptacles comprising a hollow casing open at opposite ends and suitably secured at one end to and communicating with a receptacle, and a battle within said casing extending partly across the same in an oblique direction, whereby the stream of liquid passing through said casing is directed at an angle against a portion of the spout wall to. cause an eddy in the stream and re duce the velocity of flow at the discharge end of the spout.
2. A spout for receptacles comprising a plurality of Walls arranged in rectangular cross-section and suitably secured at one end to and communicating with a receptacle, and a baflie within the spout consisting of a sheet of suitable material secured to one of said walls, and a portion thereof is bent at an angle towards the opposite wall, whereby the liquid passing through said spout is di rected against the interior walls of said spout so as to increase the friction and reduce the 1 velocity of flow.
3.v A spout for receptacles comprising a plurality of walls arranged in rectangular cross-section and suitably secured at one end to and communicating with a receptacle, and a baffle within the spout consisting of a sheet of suitable material secured to one of said walls and a portion thereof is bent at an angle towards the opposite wall and provided with lateral flanges along its opposite edges disposed in the direction of the flow of liquid, through said spout is forced adjacent the walls thereof in a relatively shallow stream.
