' 1 'Y /J V l z 'I' Patented Aug.y 18, 1931 UNITED STATES PATENT* `OFI-Ica FAUCET Application led June 26,
This invention relates to water faucet construction, and aims to provide a novel form of faucet wherein the stem of the faucet may ybe readily removed to replace the washer thereof, novel means` being provided for automatically cutting of the fiow of water through the faucet while repairs are being made.
An important objectof the invention is to provide a faucet of this type embodying a movable valve member designed to operate within the valve body, means being provided on the valve stem for engaging the movable valve to hold it from its seat, under normal conditions.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, may be made within the scope of what is claimed,without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Referring to the drawings:
Figure 1 is` a vertical sectional view through a faucet constructedin accordance with the invention.
Figure 2 is a perspective view of the automatic valve that operates within the valve body.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the valve guide.
Figure 4 is a vertical sectional view through a faucet body portion wherein a modified form of valve is employed.
Figure 5 is a sectional view taken on line 5 5 of Figure 4.
Figure 6 is a perspective view of the autovmatic valve used in the modified form of the tion 8 which has an opening establishing 192s. `serial 110.2815328.
communication between the passageway 9 and the spout so that water may passthrough the body portion in-the usual and well known manner.
The reference character 10 designates the usual valve stem provided with a head 11 to which the washer l2 is secured, the washer seating against the circular fla-nge 13 to control the passage of water through the valve body.
Mounted within the compartment directly under the valve stem, is a vertically movable inverted cup valve 14 which has a depression- 15 in its upper end to be engaged by the lower extremity of theextension 16 formed on the lower end of the valve stem 10, so that the valve will normally be held away from the partition 8.
A guide indicated at 17 is also loosely mounted in the compartment directly under the valve stem, the valve guide having depending spaced fingers 18 to allow water to enter the cup valve 14, which is also formed with spaced lingers 19. When the valve is operated and the washer 12 is moved from the valve seat, water passing into the valve will elevate the guide 17, to a position to allow water to pass between the fingers 18, from where the water may pass through the outlet spout 6.
In the modified form of the invention as shown by Figure 4 of the drawings, the valve body is indicated by the reference character 5 and is provided with a. partition 8 formed with an opening through which water passes.
In this form of the invention the valve stem 10 is formed with an extension 16 fitted in the depression 15 of the valve 14', which Y valve is provided with a cut out portion 17 to allow water to pass thereinto to force the valve to its seat. As shown, the valve 14 has a tapered upper extremity 18 to seat in the opening 19 to cut off the passage of water through the valve body.
In order that the valve 14 will be guided in its movements, spaced ribs 20 are formed at one side of the valve body, while ribs 21 are formed at the opposite side thereof, there being provided ribs 22 on the valve 14 to cooperate with the ribs 20 as shown by Figure 5, preventing rotary movement of the valve.
From the foregoing it Will be obvious that should it be desired to remove the valve stem yto replace the Washerit is only necessary to unscrevv the valve stem inthe usualway, whereupon the Water pressure WithinY the valve body will operate to move the valve 'up-l vvardly to its seat, cutting oft' the passage of Water to the valve body, and eliminating the necessity of cutting olf the supply of Water at its source in order to make repairs.
We claim:
In a Water faucet, a body portion, a valve seat in the body portion, a valve stem carrying a valve on its/lower end, operating in the body portion and adapted to engagefthe valve seat to control the passage of` Water through the body portion, a vertically movable valve loosely mounted in the bodyportion underV Y the valve seat Vand adaptedito engage the valve seat to stop the lovv of Water through the body portion, and a vertically movable guiding member closely tted in the body portion and into Which the last mentioned valve moves, to guide the ylast mentioned valve to its seat.
. In testimony that We claim the foregoing as our own, We have hereto azfHXed our signa# tures, Y Y
