INVENTO NATHAN ROACH BY MW ATTO R NEYS Patented Feb. 9, 1943 FAUCET Nathan Roach, Cleveland, Ohio, assignor to The Cleveland Brass Manufacturing Company, Cleveland, Ohio, a corporation of Ohio Application September 16, 1941, Serial No. 411,057
(Cl. c25-44) 1 Claim.A
This invention relates to improvements in faucets, particularly of a type built into and forming part of a bung or closure member for a barrel, drum or similar container.
An object of the present invention is to provide a combined bung and valve wherein the body of the bung itself forms a portion of the valve and the entire device is composed of a few parts simply constructed but efficient to carry out its purpose. The advantages of the invention will be more apparent from the accompanying drawing and description and the essential features will be set forth in the claim.
In the drawing, Fig. 1 is a central sectional view through one form of my device, the view being taken generally along the line I-I of Fig. 4; Fig. 2 is a similar view showing a slightly modified form of construction; Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the device of Fig. 2; while Fig. 4 is a front elevation of the device of Fig. 3. i
In Fig. 1, the bunk I is provided with a thread at Il for connection with a similar coacting thread formed in the walls about the bunghole' of a barrel, drum or similar container. Combined with this bung is a valve for dispensing the contents of the container to which the bung is attached. For this purpose, formed integrally with or at least rigid with the central portion of the bung is a sleeve I2, the inner walls of which define a passageway through the bung for the passage of the contents of the container to the outside. The inner end of the sleeve I2 is formed at i211I to provide a valve seat.
A second sleeve I3 is fitted snugly Within the sleeve I2 and adapted to reciprocate therein. The inner end of this sleeve is provided with a valve I4 adapted to coact with the valve seat Iza. In the form shown 'in Fig. l, a projection I3a on the inner end wall I3b of the sleeve I3 serves to hold a valve sealing gasket Illa outside of which is a plate I4b, all held together by riveting over the end of the stud I3a. Suitable openings I5 near the inner end of sleeve I3 are provided to permit the entrance of liquid from the container into the sleeve I3 when the valve is open as indicated in Fig. l. A helical spring I6 surrounds a reduced ing the sleeve I3 inwardly so as to open the valve The modication shown in Fig. 2 is similar to that shown in Fig. 1 except for the manner of securing the valve on the inner end of sleeve I3. Here the inner end of sleeve I3 is provided with a thread 2I into which is threaded an assembled valve 22 which comprises a gasket 22a. adapted to coact with the valve seat I2a, a metal holding plate 22b and a noncircular head 22e by which the valve may be rotated to engage the threads 2|. This type of valve is more readily replaced than the type shown in Fig. 1.
As best seen in Figs. 3 and 4, a very simple means is provided for holding the valve closed. On the outer end of sleeve I2 is formed a spiral cam 23 which extends from a low point at 23a to a high point at 23h. A pin 24 rigidly attached to sleeve I3 is adapted to enter a longitudinally extending slot 25 in sleeve I2 when it is desired to open the valve by pushing on the thumb piece 23. When the valve is to be locked closed the spout I 9 is rotated, thus carrying the pin 24 from the position shown in Figs. 3 and 4 in a clockwise direction as viewed in Fig. 4 about the cam surface 23 until the pin 24 holds the valve I4 firmly on its seat. Because of the comparatively flat surface on the cam 23 the valve will remain in this locked position. A gasket 26 of leather or the like may be placed between shoulder I8 and spring I6 to prevent liquid leakage between sleeves I2 and I3.
It is obvious that a steel drum or the like provided with my improved combined bung and faucet in one of the end heads of the drum may utilize the faucet for dispensing the contents of the drum and when it is necessary to move the drum the faucet may be locked by means of the pin 24 and the cam 23, whereupon the drum may be rolled about without danger of losing any of its contents. The closed position of the valve is shown in Fig. 2 and the open position of the valve in Fig. 1.
What I claim is:
In combination, a bung having a threaded cylindrical wall for engagement With the wall of a container bunghole, a sleeve forming part of said bung and located centrally thereof spaced from said cylindrical wall, there being an opening through said bung in registration with the hollow portion of said sleeve, a valve seat on the container-facing side of said bung surrounding said opening, a second sleeve snugly reciprocable within said rst sleeve, a faucet discharge spout on the outer end of said second sleeve, a valve onthe inner end of said second sleeve adapted to coact with said seat and movable into said container by reciprocation of said second sleeve relative to said first sleeve, spring means between said sleeves urging said valve toward engagement with said seat, a pin extending radially outwardly from said second sleeve, and a spiral cam on said rst sleeve adapted to engage said pin and by rotation of said second sleeve to cam said pin and therefore said valve outwardly against said seat to hold said valve closed, said cam at its end nearer the container communicating With a slot extending longitudinally of said rst sleeve thus permitting reciprocation of said second sleeve to open said valve.
