Description
Dec. 9, 1930. w. OLDFIELD LAVATORY OR WASHSTAND Filed April 6, 1929 v I Inventor W/LL/AN /1 azpfi/z-w y qr A tlomcy Patented Dec. 9, 1930 PATEN oFF cs WILLIAM H. OLDFIELD, OFROCHESTER, NEW YoRK LAVATORY on wnsnsrnnn Application filed. April 6, 1929. Serial No. 353,112.
. The object of this invention is to provide a new and improved form'of lavatory or washstand with a drain from the bottom of the bowl and an improved :form of overflow 6 from the ,top thereof.
Another object of the invention is to improve the form of the lift waste.
Another object of the invention is to improve the connections for the hot and cold water service pipes.
Another object of the invention is to improve the connection between the slab and the pedestaland to improve the placing of the drain that connects the basin or bowl with the trap and sewer.
These and other objects of the invention will be illustrated in the drawing, described.
in the specification and claims at the end thereof.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a vertical section through the slab containing the washbowl or basin.
Figure 2 is a transverse section on the line 2m, 2a: of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a front elevation of the washstand containing my invention.
Figure 4 is a bottom plan view of the base of the pedestal.
Figure 5 is a detail view of the opening through which the nipple goes that connects with the faucet.
Figure 6 is an enlarged detail View of'the packing around the lift waste.
In the drawings like reference numerals indicate like parts.
In the drawings reference numeral 1 indicates the pedestal of a washstand on top of which is placed a slab 2. This slab has its forward part shaped to form a bowl or basin 3 and the back of it forms a housing. The bowl drains at the bottom through an open ing 4 and at the top through an opening 5 in the rear vertical wall 6 of the bowl. At the pointed out in the top of the housing is the faucet 7 through tends rea-rwardly for a short distance and.
then down through the pipe 10 formed in the housing which pipe near the bottom is curved or offset to pass around the drain 4 so that it will not connect therewith. At the bottom the overflow drain 10 discharges into the horizontal passage 11 which in turn connects with the vertical discharge pipe 8 be low the valve seat. 9. In this way the overflow of the bowl can always pass down though the vertical discharge pipe 8 and to the sewer regardless of whether the bottom drain 4 is open to the drain plug. or not.
Mounted at the rear of the housing is the This passes through a metal sleeve 13 which is fastened in a suitable opening in the top of the housing. This sleeve has a flange 14 on the top thereof and the sleeve is threaded at the bottom and is held in place by a lock nut 15. Thesleeve iscoveredat the top by a proce lainescutcheon plate 16. The stem 12 passes through; the sleeve 13 and the escutcheon plate 16. This stem atthe bottom carries a valve 17 which fits in the valve seat 9 when thestem 12 is-down and closes the drain zontal wall is provided that has an opening 7 therein which is closed bya cap 19 at the top, on top of which is placed a stufling box20.- I r This stuffing boxQOis threaded on the cap 19 and any suitable packing material. is contained in the opening between them. When the stufling box 20-is turned down on the cap 19 thepacking material is squeezed closely around the stem 12so that water cannot flow up along the stem 12 and out rearwardly. The cap19 has a flange 21 around the top thereof which rests on top of the horizontal wall and on the bottom of this wall an annular plate 22 is provided. "The flange 21 and the plate 22 are joined together. by .bolts which hold .them closely together. The flange 21 has a gasket under it which prevents any leak of water up andout through the housing, so thatall water that is standing in the bowl or drains from thebowl is held therein and can only escape by passing down I 26, 2; at the top thereof that are adapted to ill through the vertical discharge pipe 8 when the valve 17 is lifted. At the level indicated by the reference numeral 23 a horizontal wall provided which has a slot 24 extending vertically through it which has the shape indicated in the fragmentary view shown in Figure 5. This slot in horizontal section is a long narrow rectangle and the central portion iserounded out. Through this slot is pushed the nipple 25 which nipple has ears pass up through the opening into the faucet opening 7 The nipple is then turned a quarter turn so that the ears 26 and 27 can rest on top of the horizontalwall which willpipes is controlled by the valves which are moved by the handles 32 and 83. When the valves are open, water' frem 'both of them flows up through the nipple 25 and through the faucet 7 and into the bowl. As long as the valve 17 is in its lowest position the'wate'r is held in the bowl except as it escapes through the overflow. l/Vhen the valve 17 is raised the water will drain from the bottom of the bowl. The packing that is squeezed 1 around the stem12 by thestufiing box' 20 will have suflicient frictional engagement with the stem to hold the stemand valve up when it is raised so that it will not and close the drain. 1
The slab sets on top of the pedestal and the outline of the pedestal in front elevation is shown in Figure 1. The rearportion of the slab and the bottom of the drain'plug is exposed back of the pedestal so, that a trap or drain pipe can be attached directly to the Vl ith the drain valve and the drain passages arranged as above described there are no obstructions in the drainthatwill in any way interfere with the free passage of the water or catch any lint, fibers or hair, and there is no possibility of water leaking out onthe floor. The water service pipes and the dr 'in are more easily connected up to the washbowl, thus simplifying the installation of thefixture.
I claim:
1. A lavatory having a basin and a housing at the back thereof constituting the rear portion of the basin, said housing having a drain therein for the overflow of the basin and ha-ving'a horizontal drain therein for the bottom of the basin, a vertical drain with, which the last named drain connects at 5 the top fall down I thereof and with which the overflow drain connects near the bottom thereof, a solid cone shape valve for closing the opening between the horizontal drain and the vertical drain, the overflow drain always being left open, a stem extending down through said housing, and connecting with said valve by which said valve is raised or lowered, a stufiing box surrounding saidstem and preventing the flow of water-up along the stem, said housing having an open space at. the back thereof through which the water pipes can be extended, a faucet in the top of said housing dischargin'g into said basin to which said waterpipes are connected. 7
2. A lavatory having a basin, a housing back of the basin, the front of the housing foi'rning the back of the basin and having an upper and lower drainopening therein, the back of the housing having an opening therein witha deck above and a deck below the opening, a vertical drain extending in the lower deck, a valve steni and a stuf'ing box at the top of the vertical drain inthe lower deck, adapted'to close it at the top', an
opening in the upper deck for the valve stem immediately overthe opening in the lower deck, said valve stem being exposed between the two decks and the stufiing box being exposed a-bovcthe lowerdeck and the valve stem being exposed above the upper deck, a valve and a valve seatiin saidvertical drain, a horizoutal drain connecting the lower open-V ing of the basin directly with'thelvertica-l drain above the valve seat, an offset drain connecting the overflow opening of the basin with the vertical drain in the lower deck be low the valve seat. I
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
WILLIAM it OLD'FIELD.
