UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JACOB G. VAN HOUTEN, OF TRENTON, NEW JERSEY.
BIDET WATER-CLOSET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 281,462, dated August 24, 1880. Application filed April 16, 1880. (No model.)
1' 0 all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JACOB G. VAN HOUIEN, of the city of Trenton, State of New Jersey, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Bidet Water-Closets, of which the following is a specification.
My invention consists in a new and useful improvement in bidet water-closets, whereby the person using the same can, without leaving the seat, or without passing the hand or arm down within the basin or bowl, bring machinery into position by means of which a stream 0t water is projected upward against the person. I attain this object by employing the mechanism shown in the accompanying drawings, in which drawings similar lettersof reference indicate'similar parts.
Figure l is a sectional elevation of my apparatus. Fig. 2 is a horizontal view of the same. Fig. 3 shows asegmental piece oi. the
'bowl, portion of the jointed pipe, and lever.
In Fig. 1, A A represent the seat of a'watercloset, with the opening a therein. B B represent the bowl or basin. (J represents a water-pipe, which passes within the interior of the bowl. Immediately within the bowl this pipeis provided with a joint, I). To thisjoint is attached the pipe 0. This pipe bends dowlm'ard, corresponding, or nearly so, with the shape of the inner wall of the bowl, until it reaches nearly to the bottom of the bowl. From there it curves gradually outward and upward until at the nozzle it stands upright, so as to discharge the water perpendicularly upward, or nearly so. Tothis curved pipe is attached, near thejoint D, a short arm, E, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3. To this short arm is attached the rod F, with its handle G, moving freely in the slot G, Fig. 2, in the wood-work of the closet. t
In the water-pipe at H, Fig. 1, is a cock, I, for regulating the flow of water to the curved pipe 0.
When the closet is needed for ordinary use, the handle G is moved in a direction away from the bowl. This carries-with it the rod E,
and causes the curved pipe G to fold against the inner wall of the bowl. When the bathing apparatus is to be brought into use, by pushing the handle G toward the bowl, the curved pipe 0 is thrown into position, nearly or quite over the opening K in the bottom of the basin, and while in such position, by turning the cock I, a stream of water passes into the curved pipe 0, and is projected upward against the rectum with a force graduated by the extent to which the cock I is turned, enabling the user to bring all parts of the apparatus into position and use without leaving the seat.
I do notlimit myself to the above-described mechanism, which I employ preferably, but use any equivalent means for producing the above-stated results.
What [claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In a bidet water-closet, a curved pipe adapted to project a stream of water from near the center of the bowl upward against the person, in combination with mechanism for folding-said pipe back against the wall of the bowl when not in use and bringing it into position when needed, such mechanism for folding passing outside of the bowl and attached to a handle capable of being operated without the person leaving the seat.
2. In combination with the curved pipe 0, the short arm E, rod is, and handle G, substantially as shown.
3. In combination with the seat Aand bowl B, the joint I), curved pipe 0, short arm E, rod F, handle G, and slot G, all substantially as shown.
4. In combination with the bowl B, the pipe 0, with cock I and joint D, curved pipe 0, with its short arm E, the rod F, handle G, and slot G, all arranged and operating substantially as shown.
J. G. VAN HOUTEN.
