12 Claims.
This invention relates tonozzles, and more particularly to that type which is adapted to be attached to a hose for fire-extinguishing or other purposes.
An object of the invention is to provide a nozzle of this character in which either a solid stream of water or a spray, or so-called fog or mist, may be ejected, the latter being attained in one embodiment of the invention by means of the impingement of a plurality of converging streams, and in another embodiment bythe provision of annular outlets; the change from a solid stream to a spray being secured by the manual operation of a control device provided in the nozzle.

The nozzle shown consists of four main parts, all of which may be made, if desired, of plastic material, so that it is possible to make the entire device of such material by moulding processes. i
The four main parts just referred to are those indicated at I, 2, 3 and 20. For convenience, the part indicated at I will be hereinafter referred to as the body or body portion, While that shown at 2 will be termed the head; that shown at 3 will be described as the top or top member and will be termed the lockin ring.
At one end, the body portion I is internally threaded, as indicated at 4 (Fig. 9) for the reception of the standard coupling found on the end of a hose or other fitting to which the nozzle to project a is to be attached. Extending longitudinally through the body portion is an axial water-passage 5 which is divided near the end of the body portion into two spaced stream passages 6 and 1. The end of the body portion is provided with a compressible washer or gasket 8 which, while surrounding the stream passages 6 and I, does not extend over or cover them. This end of the body portion is provided with screw threads 9 which are received in the internal threads ID in the head 2. The head is externally fluted to facilitate its manual rotation. A gasket 8a aids in preventing leakage between the threads 9 and Ill.
The threaded portion 9 of the head 2 is formed with a groove into which a stop pin |2 secured in the wall of the head extends, said pin being movable in the groove l as the head is manually rotated to shut ed the flow of water, as will be presently explained.
As will be observed in Figs. 9 and 10, the head 2 is provided with a pair of spaced stream passages l3 and 14 which are adapted to align with the passages 6 and 1 in the body when the stop pin I2 is at one end of the groove By manually rotating the head 2 on the threads 9, the passages l3 and M are disaligned with those indicated at 6 and I, as shown in Fig. 12, and the water flow is shut off, the gasket or washer 8 interposed between the head and body of the nozzle being compressed and providing an effective cut off and seal.
Th end of each of the stream passages I3 and I4 is flared to provide a conical pocket l5 constituting a continuation of the passage in which it is formed. It will be observed that the inner surface of each of the pockets I5 is formed with three angularly disposed grooves I6, I! and I8.
Mounted On the head 2 is the top member 3, said top member having a limited rotative movement on the head, as well as a limited axial movement thereon, as will be hereinafter described. The top member 3 is provided with a side wall I9 around which extends the locking ring 20 provided with bosses 40 through which inwardly projecting, diametrically opposite stop or guidepins 23 extend and are guided in circumferential grooves 2| and 22 formed in the head 2.
The end wall 24 of the top is provided with an outlet opening 25 which is flared and is substantially oval in shape. Extending inwardly from the wall 24 and preferably formed integrally therewith, is a pair of conical plugs 26, each of which is shaped to fit within one of the conical pockets l5. Each of the plugs 26 has its face formed with three grooves 21, 28 and 29, so that when the plugs are seated within the pockets l5, the grooves 21, 28 and 29 will register respectively with those formed in the pocket and indicated at l6, l1 and I8. In other words, groove 21 will co-operate with groove l6 to form an angular spray opening; groove 28 will co-operate with groov IT to form a similar opening, and groove 29 will co-operate with groove l8. Since the spray openings so formed are angularly disposed, those in one group of three openings will direct streams which will impinge against the streams emitted from the other three openings. That is to say, a stream emitted from the opening formed by the grooves l8 and 29 will impinge against a stream ejected from the second opening formed by the other grooves I8 and 29. Similarly, the flow from opening formed by grooves I1 and 24 will impinge against a flow from the second like opening. In other words, through the arrangement disclosed, two sets of three spray openings are provided, the streams from one set of openings impinging against those emanating from the other set. As is Well known in this art, the impingement of streams tends to break up the flow into a fine mist or so-called fog found useful for extinguishing fires.
In order to change the flow from the nozzle from a stream to a spray or from a spray to a stream, it is necessary to properly locate the plugs 26 relative to the pockets l5. When said plugs are seated in the pockets, as shown in Fig. 4, a
spray is being ejected from the nozzle. To change the emitted flow from a spray to a stream requires that the plugs 26 be raised out of the pockets l5 and then shifted to one side of the pockets, thus allowing a free and uninterrupted flow of water through the passages 6, I3 and 1, l4. The plugs are moved to the required position by first moving the top 3 axially of the nozzle to lift the plugs out of the pockets, and then, when th plugs have been raised out of the pockets, the head 3 is rotated to bring the plugs to one side of the pockets to cause them to cocupy the positions shown in Figs. 5 and 10.
When the plugs 26 are located in the pockets I5, said plugs are held from being raised out of th pockets by pressure of the water, by means of the ring 20 which acts as a locking member. The ring is at this time in such a position that the guide pins 23, which extend through cut-out portions of the side wall IQ of the top 3, are confined in the lower groove 22 so that the top 3 is thus held against movement axially of the nozzle. To enable the top 3 to be moved axially. the ring 20 is rotated until one of the pins 23 is brought into contact with a shoulder 34 on the head 2 and located at an end of the grooves 2| and 23, which shoulder defines a vertical groove portion 3| in which the pin 23 is then positioned. This is seen in Fig. 8. At the same time, the diametrically opposite pin 23 is in the position shown in Fig. 6 and is also located in a vertical groove portion 3|a, adjacent to the shoulder 34a. Since both of the pins 23 are now located in vertical grooves, or grooves extending longitudinally of the nozzle, the ring 20 and head 3 may be moved in company longitudinally or axially of the nozzle to the extent permitted by the grooves 34 and 34a to cause the plugs 26 to be raised out of the pockets l5. When such axial movement has been manually effected, the ring and top are rotated slightly, or until the plugs 26 have been shifted to one side of the stream openings I3 and I4, as indicated in Fig. 5. The parts may be held locked in this position by engagement of the pins 23 in the top groove 2|. Rotative movement of the top is restricted, in order to locate the plugs either directly above the pockets l5 or else to a position to one side of the same, by means of the shoulders 32 and 320. on the top which, contacting against a radially projecting stop 33 located in the lower groove 22, restrict the rotative movement of the top 3.
When it is desired to change the flow through the nozzle from a stream to a spray, the procedure is reversed. That is to say, the ring 20 is rotated, and its pins 23, engaging in the notched wall IQ of the top, will rotate the top until the pins 23 reach the vertical grooves 3| and 3|a. The plugs 23 are nowlocated above the pockets l5 and are caused to seat in the same by downward axial thrust of the top. The ring is then turned slightly ejection.
with the structure disclosed, it will be seen that by a slight axial movement of the top, and then a rotative movement imparted tofthe same, the flow from the nozzle will at once be changed from a stream to a spray or vice versa. This can be done without requiring shut off of the flow,
although when high pressure is used, it is desirable to shut off the flow before making the change.
An important fe'ature of the invention also resides in the arrangement by which the spray openings can be readily cleaned out. This is done by moving the top 3 to its limit of. axial movement, or by raising it to lift the'plugs 26 out of the pockets I 5. The streams flowing through the effective to shut oilcommunication between the passages in the body and head by rotative movement of the head relatively to the body, the outer portions of the passages in the head being angularly grooved, a top rotatively mounted on the body and having a restricted axial movement thereon, said top having grooved parts fitting. in the grooved portions of the head and co-operating therewith in forming angular spray passages for the direction of impinging streams.
