UNITED STATES CHARLES READ, or new yonx, n. Y.
HANDLE FOR FAUCETS AND MEANS FOR ATTACHING.
Application filed May 9,
To all whom. it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES READ, a citizen of the United States, and resident of the borough of Queens, county of Queens, city and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in I-Iandles for Faucets and Means for Attaching, of which the following is the specification.
The device, the subject of this invention is a handle or knob for a faucet, the knob or handle being made of glass or porcelain or other similar material and while such knobs have been used in the past, their use has been by no means general and for the reason that it has been found very difiicult to secure'such knobs or handles in a practical and easy manner and to provide a securing means that would be cheap and therefore adaptable for general use.
My invention, therefore, resides principally in means for attaching porcelain or glass handles and the following is what I consider the best means of carrying out this invention and the accompanying drawing should be referred to for a complete under standing of the specification which follows In the drawing Fig. 1, is a top, plan view of a faucet.
Fig. 2, a sectional view on the line 22 in Fig. 3.
Fig. 3, a vertical, sectional view.
Fig. 4., a view, partly in section showing a modification, and
Fig. 5, a sectional view on the line 5-5 in Fig. 4.
Similar reference numerals indicate like parts in all the figures where they appear.
The knob or handle, according to my construction is provided with four arms or projections as shown at 6, 7, 8 and 9 and a central body member or button 10, upon which may be printed or stamped the words Hot or Cold as is customary.
The button 10 may be considered the body of the device and the arms 6 to 9 inclusive are formed integral with the body. The arms are depressed out of plane as will be shown in Fig. 3, so that the button 10 will be below the plane surface of the extended part of the arms.
Formed integral with the body or button 10 is a downward extension as shown in Fig. 3,' the extension being provided with straight sides for a portion of its length as 1923. Serial No. 637,686.
shown at 11 and the lower end being depressed upwardly as shown at 12 and for a purpose that shall appear later. The extreme end of the extension 12 is square as shown at 13 in Fig. 2.
At 14 in Fig. 3, I show what may be termed the spud of the valve and this spud is provided with a squared extension, which may also be tapered as shown at 15.
The extension 12 of the valve handle or knob rests upon and coincides in size with the upper end of the spud 14. These parts are secured in operative relation by means of a chuck, which is formed in four parts as shown at 16, 17, 18 and 19, in Fig. 2. The outer surface of each part of the chuck is threaded and upon all of the parts, I thread a thimble or cylindrical member as shown at 20 in Fig. 3. This cylindrical member may be tapered and the chuck may be also correspondingly tapered, so that as the shell or cylindrical member 20 is screwed upward upon the chuck, the chuck parts will be drawn close together.
The chuck may be formed of cast metal or any other suitable material as may also the casing or cylindrical member 20.
In Figs. 4 and 5, I show a modified construction, wherein the handle or knob 21 is provided with a downward shouldered extension 22.
The spud 23, in this instance is squared at the top in the ordinary manner as shown at 24. The washer 25 is secured thereon, by
means of a screw 26. The chuck in four parts is shown at 27, 28, 29 and 30 in Fig. 5 is provided with inward projections 31. and 32, adapted to retain the screw 26, against movement and as the exterior of the chuck members are screw-threaded, a rind 33 may be employed for securing these parts together, obviously the inner parts of the chuck members must coincide with the parts upon which they are to be secured or which they are to secure.
Other modifications than those previously described'may be made within the scope of the appended claims, without departing from the principal or sacrificing the advantages of the invention.
Having carefully and fully described my invention, what I claim and desire to obtain 1s:
1. A knob for faucets comprising a porcelain member having a downward exten sion adapted to rest upon the valve stem of screW-threaded and a screw-threaded shell a faucet and a chuck and means for closing adapted to engage all said amts, to close said chuck uponv said valve stern and said said parts upon 'said extension andisaid valve 10 extension. stem.
2. A knob for faucets comprising a body Signed at the city, county, and State of member having a tapered extension, a'ehuck 'New'York; 'thisQSth day of April, 1923. in four parts, the exterior of each; being -GHARLES READ.
