Description

UNFFFDV STATES- VPATENT OFFIOF.
F. CORTEZ WILSON, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN BUNG-HOLE SPOUTS'.
Spemcication forming part of Letters Patent N o. 174,397, dated March 7, 1876 application led December 3, 1875.
The object of my invention is to providea spout which may be quickly applied to a barrel, and in which the attaching device is outside of the ori-tice through which the liquid flows.
.The invention consists in extending the base of the spout, so that the clamping-bolt may pass through this extension and not be in the Way ofthe liquid rnnningthrough the spout; and, also, in a clamping device for attaching the spout tothe barrel, consisting of a sliding bolt operated by a cam-lever, as will be hereinafter described.
In the drawings, A is the spout, which is provided with a projection, B, opposite to the orilice, the whole -being cast in one piece, as shown.. The base of the spout` is provided with a groove, a, in the form of. a horseshoe, for the reception of rubber or any other elastic packing, E. The groove a is dovetailed slightly, so as to hold the packing securely in position. The spout is cast with asnitable hole, b, through the projection B, for the reception of a sliding bolt, C. This bolt is pro-` ofthe projection B, it operates as an eccentric Whenever the lever is moved up and down to slide the bolt C downward or upward, as clearly shown in Fig. 3.
In Fig. 3, F represents the stave of a barrel, and e the bung-hole cut through it.
The spout is applied to the barrel as follows z The lever vD is thrown up into the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 3, and, by the operation of the eccentric on the end thereof, heretofore described, the bolt C is forced down- IWard, as is also shown in dotted lines, the hole through the projection B being inclined, so that the bolt will enter the bung-hole and yet be without the orifice of the spout. The spout is then set back until the bolt C comes against the stave F, when the lever D is turned down again, and by means of the eccentric the bolt is drawn up and the stave is tightly clamped between the spout and the hook c 0n the end of the bolt. If desired, a latch or springrack may be attached to the spout, so that the lever D may be firm] y held in any desired position by means of the latch Or rack, and thus the spout is better adapted for use with thick staves.
The elastic packing E around the base of the spout prevents the leakage of the liquid in the process of emptying the barrel, and it will be seen from the arrangement ot' parts, as shownl in Fig. 3, that the liquid Will flow freely through the orifice of the spout Without being interrupted by the clamping bolt passing through the Orifice, and without daubing said bolt by coming in 'contact therewith in the case of viscid liquids.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The spout A, cast with a perforated projection, B, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
2. rIlhe combination of the clamping-bolt C, eccentric lever D, and spout A B, substantially as and for the purposes described.
