DISHWASHING SPRAY HEAD Filed Feb. 23, 1950 2 SHEETSSHEET 2 lA/VEATO I? Patented May 13, 1952 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 4 Claims.
The present invention relates generally to improvements in the art of washin and rinsing dishes and like articles, and relates more particularly to improvements in the construction and operation of liquid soap dispensing and water spraying devices adapted for hand manipulation.
A primary object of my invention is to provide an improved portable dish washing spray head which is extremely simple and compact in construction and highly efficient and positive in action.
There have been many types of portable hand operated spray heads heretofore proposed for dish washing and analogous purposes, some of which utilize bar soap and others of which utilize liquid soap in the washing operation. While there are numerous objections normally attendant the use of bar soap in spraying devices, such as difiiculties in dispensing the proper amount of soap and in obtaining an effective washing mixture as well as difficulties in preventing gumming and the like after the soap has been acted upon by the water, some of the prior spray heads in which liquid soap is utilized have met with a fair degree of success; and one of these relatively successful prior spraying devices is shown and described in my co-pendin application Serial No. 57,520, filed October 30, 1948, now Patent No. 2,532,270, granted on November 28, 1950. However, even the spraying devices utilizing liquid soap possess many objectionable features, particularly in the more or less complicated nature of the soap dispensing mechanism and the attendant difficulties in assembly and the resultant prohibitive cost of merchandising such devices.
Accordingly, a more specific object of my present invention is to provide an improved portable liquid soap dispensing spray device which obviates all of the disadvantages and objections attendant prior devices of this general type.
Another specific object of this invention is to provide an improved portable spray head which comprises relatively few simple parts, all of which may be readily manufactured of plastic and/or sheet metal or the like and assembled at low cost to the ultimate consumer.
Another specific object of the invention is to provide an improved portable spray head especially adapted for dish washing and like purposes which is exceedingly neat and attractive in appearance and durable in construction and wherein all parts are readily accessible for inspection, replacement and/or repair.
An additional specific object of my present inill vention is to provide an improved portable spraying device which embodies extremely simple liquid soap dispensing mechanism wihch may be easily and conveniently manipulated by a novice to positively supply controlled quantities of soap directly to the washing zone when desired.
Still another specific object of the present invention is to provide an improved portable and highly flexible washing and spraying device adapted for ready attachment to any standard water faucet and in which the liquid soap supply is housed within a segregated and entirely unobstructed and easily accessible confining chamber.
A further specific object of the present invention is to provide an improved portable: spraying device comprising, a fresh liquid supply chamber having an annular series of discharge openings in its lower Wall, an insulated gripping handle projecting from one side of the liquid supply chamber, means for conducting liquid under pressure through the handle to the liquid supply chamber, a soap chamber disposed above the liquid supply chamber, means forming a passage for conducting soap directly from the soap chamher to a point below the liquid supply chamber within the annular series of openings, and a valve having a manipulating knob adjacent to the handle for opening and closing the passage.
These and other specific objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following detailed description.
