EDWARD V. N. BOOSEY, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN.
BAGKWATER-INTERCEPTING TILE-DRAIN SUMP.
Application filed April 14, 1928. Serial No. 269,986.
This invention relates to bacl: water intercepting tile drain sumps and the object of the invention is to provide a means for preventing sewage from backing up from the main house sewer into the field tile drains around the basement wall and at the same time will provide drainage as long as the water in the sump remains below the inlet valve.
A further object of the invention is to provide an outlet member adapted to be connected to an outlet pipe and adapted to be turned on its vertical axis in relation to the sewer trap body for connection to the outlet pipe, the outlet member being adapted to be calked in any set position in the trap body.
These objects and the several novel features of the invention are hereinafter more fully described and claimed and the preferred form of construction by which these objects are attained is shown in the accompanying drawings in which Fig. 1 is a plan view of a back water intercepting tile drain sump embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is a section taken on line 2-2 of Fig. -1.
The device comprises a main body member 1 having an inlet 2 to which a tile drain may be connected. The inlet 2 opens into a chamber 16 formed in one side of the body member 1. As shown in Fig. 2 a valve seat memher 3 is threaded into the inlet 2 from the inside of the drain sump and is provided with a lug 4 extending from the top thereof. This lug 4 provides a pivot for the swinging arm 5 to which the valve 6 is secured and the member 3 is faced off at the end to provide a seat for the valve 6 which normally rests thereon by gravity. This valve and member 3 are positioned in the chamber 16 at one side of and out of the main chamber in the body member. A clean-out plug 7 is threaded into the upper end of the body member 1 and allows access to the interior of the body member for cleaning and as the valve 6 and valve member 3 do not extend into the main chamber they do not interfere with cleaning. The member 1 is provided with an offset portion 8 at the side opposite the inlet 2 providing an annular seat 9 on which the outlet member 10 is adapted to be positioned within the annular flange thereabout. The outlet member 10 is provided with a vertical opening therethrough and with an outlet opening. 11 opening from the side thereof which is adapted for connection with an outlet )ipe. The outlet member 10 may be turned to any angle on the 9 on its vertical axis to position the outlet 11 at any desired angle to acconi modate the drain sump for connection with the outlet drain pipe. When the member 10 has been correctly positioned in relation to the body member 1 it is calked in position in the offset portion 8 by means of the callting 12. A clean-out member 13 is positioned in the flange 14 on the upper end of the member 10 and is secured in this flange by calking as shown and a clean-out plug 15 is carried in the upper end of the member 13 and allows access to the interior of the member 10 for cleaning.
lVhen the tile drain is connected to the inlet 2 and the outlet drain pipe is connected to the outlet 11 the water will stand in the drain at about the level shown in Fig. 2 below the inlet valve 6. Any water coming in through the field tile inlet will swingthe valve 6 off from its seat and flow into the in terior of the body member 1. Should the drain water back up in the outlet and fill the drain sump the pressure of the water will more firmly close the valve 6 and prevent the water from backing up into the field tile drain.
From the foregoing description it becomes evident that the device is very simple and efficient in operation, will not easily get out of order, may be adjusted to accommodate the drain sump for use with inlet and outlet pipes at different angles and provides a device which accomplishes the objects described.
Having thus fully described my invention. its utility and mode of operation, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is 1. A back water intercepting tile drain sump comprising a substantially cylindrical body member provided with an offset chamber having an inlet thereinto, a valve member threaded into the inlet from the inside of the body member and extending into the chamber, the valve member being provided with a valve seat on the end thereof, a valve pivotally mounted on the valve member and normally engaging the valve seat by gravity, the valve and valve member being mounted in the said chamber at one side of the said body member, the body member being provided with an outlet opening and an outlet member supported in the outlet opening and having an outlet in the side thereof.
2. A back water intercepting tile drain sump comprising a body member having an inlet in the side thereof, a valve normally closing the inlet against back pressure by gravity but allowing flow from the inlet into the body member, a clean-out plug in the top of the body member, the body member having an offset outlet near the bottom provided with an annular flange, an outlet member positioned in the annular flange and adapted to be turned on its vertical axis, the outlet member having an outlet in the side thereof and being adapted to be calked in any position in the said flange, a clean-out member secured to the top of the outlet member, and a clean-out plug threaded into the clean-out member.
3. A back Water intercepting tile drain sump comprising a body member having an inlet in one side thereof, a valve member threaded into the inlet from the inside of the body member and provided with a valve seat on the end thereof, a valve pivotally mounted in relation to the seat and normally closing the inlet to back water pressure by gravity,
the body member being provided with an outlet opening, an outlet member supported in the outlet opening and having an outlet opening in the side thereof, the said outlet member being turnable on its vertical axis in relation to the said body member and being adapted to be secured to the body memher in any position by calking.
4. A back water intercepting tile drain sump comprising a body member having an inlet in one side thereof, a swinging valve closing the inlet against back pressure, the body member having an outlet provided with an annular flange, an outlet member seating in the said flange and being adapted to be turned on its vertical axis in relation to the body member, the said outlet memberbeing secured in any position to the said flange by calking and having an outlet on the side thereof, and a clean-out member and plug secured in the upper end of the outlet member.
In testimony whereof I sign this specification.
