FAUCET AND CAP.
SPEGTEICATIoNrOrmmg part of` Lettere Patent No. 224,904, dated Februaryar, 1880, Application led July `l', 1879. n
`To all whom itmay concern l j Be it known that I, JOEL B. HAYDE'N, 0f l -`Hempstead, county of Queens, and State of New York, have invented a new anduseful `5 Improvement in Faucets and Caps for Closthe operation, and when the faucet is removedA closes the orifice automatically, leaving the package in proper shape to be again refilled, thus saving the expense of plugs, corks, Src.,
f I5 and the necessary injury to the heads of the package in driving in plugs and removing from the inside ofthe barrel the -plug driven in by thefaucet, as` in the present method. This invention is intended to apply more difzo rectly to lager-beer and ale barrelsl Heretofore in ale and lager-beer barrels it` has been usual to plug the hole in the head with a wooden plug or cork, driven in j tight t enough to resist the pressure of the gas gen-` z 5 erated inside, and yet of proper size that the faucet can be introduced by driving the plug or cork through the orificeand into the packl age. This is objectionable, as unless very skillfully drivena quantity of the ale or beer The forcing of the plug through the orifice wears and splits the head, necessitating in almost every case of refilling the putting in of parts of heads in each keg or barrel.
`the empty package before refilling.
The object of my invention is to provide a suitable device in combination with a faucet so that the faucet can be introduced into the 4o head of a lager-beer or ale barrel without wastage of the contents, and when the faucet is removed the orice is closed automatically, ready for refilling, doing away entirely'with plugs, corks, &c., and the expense and trouble This I accomplish in the following manner, reference j `being had to the accompanying drawings, in .whichj Figure 1 representsa side view of faucet,
5o gbushin g, cap, and section of barrel-head. Fig.
and`tirm, without leakage.
j E Great difficulty and expense are ex` 3 5 perienced in removing the plugs or corks from 2 represents a vertical cross-section of faucet, bushing, and cap. Fig 3 represents an end viewv of cap D, showing slot F.
`A represents the faucet; B, section of barrel-head; C, the bushing; D, the cap; E, the r. threaded reducer and shoulder; F,'slot in bottom of reducer E 5 G, the perforations in faucet Apnear its extremity; H, the perforations` in cap D.
After boring a hole of suitable size through the head of a barrel I introduce into the hole the bushing @threaded externally and internally, of sufficient length to pass through the head of the barrel and into the package onelralf inch or more. The thread on the outside screwing into the wood binds and holds bushing C into the orice in the barrel iirm and tight. The thread on the inside of bushing C is'for receiving faucet A, which is correspondingly threaded, and when screwed in is tight On Vthe inside of the package I place cap D, with shoulder on the inside, and reducer'E, threaded in cap 1) and in reducer E to correspond with the threads upon the outside and inside of `bushing G. The cap D is introduced into the barrel and screwed onto bushing C through the bunghole in barrel. v
When cap D is adjusted onto the end of bushing G and screwed up tight by means of a' screwdriver worked in slot F in bottom of reducer E it closes perfectly air-tight the orilice. The threads upon the inside of bushing C and inside of reducer E are uniform, and form a continuous thread through bushing C and reducer E to the bottom, cap D having near .its outer surface or face edge perforations H.
Bushing G and cap D are fastened permanently in the head of barrel. In connection with bushing C and cap D, I use a faucet, A, threaded the proper distance to correspond with the threads on the inside of bushing C and reducer E, said faucet A having slots or perforations G near the extremity of its threaded end.
The operationof the device is as follows: The cap D being screwed up tight on bushing C ou inside of barrel', the barrel filled with beer, ale, or other liquids, faucet A is introduced into roo bushing G from the outside or open end and screwed up until it has passed through bushing C into and to the bottom of reducer E. The operator then keeps turning or screwing in faucet A, which revolves cap D on the thread on outside of bushing C and inside of the barrel a sufficient distance, which is controlled by the length of thread cut on faucet A, cap D being carried back and off of bushing C until the perforations H in cap D extend beyond the end of bushing C in the barrel, when the ale or liquid immediately passes through the perforations H in cap D and slots or perforations G in faucet A, and is then drawn off in the usual. manner; or cap D may be run entirely off bushing G and the liquid pass directly into faucet A through slots or perforations G. When the barrel is empty or it is desired to remove the faucet the action of unscrewing the faucet revolves and screws up the cap until the oriiice or perforations in same are closed by the bushing and the orifice in the barrelis closed sufficiently to prevent leakage, and is again ready to be refilled.
rlhe cap can be adjusted as tight as desired after removal of the faucet by a screw-driver used in slot F, sunk in bottom of' reducer E.
Slot F in bottom of reducer E to cap D is for the purpose of tightening cap D firmly onto bushing C, providing the action of removing the faucet A does not screw itentirely tight, and also to adjust cap D to its place on bushing C when cap D is passed through the bunghole, und by proper device held up to and against bushing C on the inside of old barrels.
I am aware that a metal tube threaded outside is in use in the bung of lager-beer and ale barrels, and therefore do not make any special claim on the threaded bushing.
Having1 thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire Letters Patent therefor- The combination of a metal cap, D, having a shoulder and threaded reducer, E, with the screw on the extreme endv of faucet A, in connection with a bushing externally and internally screwthreaded, the cap D being internally threaded to correspond therewith, substantially as set forth.
