WATER-CLOSET SHUT-OFF.
SPECIFICATION .forming part of Letters Patent No. J7O,21l, dated January 9, 18 83. Application filed August 31, 1882. (No model.)
' ingatGhicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, and a citizen of the United States,
have invented new and useful Improvementsin Water-Closet Shut-Offs, of which the followingis a fulldescription, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a side elevation with the upper end of the cut-off pipe or tube in section, and the cut-off bars also in section, showing the devices in the position they occupy when the shut-off is closed. the cut-off devices shown in Fig. 1, showing the parts in the position they occupy when the cut-off is open; Fig. 3, a top or plan view of one form and arrangement of the cut-off lever.
The object of this invention is to construct a cut-off for the discharge from the bowl of a water-closet, the devices of which shall be simple in construction, effectual in operation, and
not liable to get out of order or become inoperative, and at the same time perform the work required and allow of a free discharge when open and an effectual guard and stop against the entrance of sewer-gas when closed; and
its nature consists in providing a flexible tubeconnection interposed between the discharge fromthe bowl and the discharge-pipe leading tothe sewer or other place of deposit, and a cut-off lever and rods, by which the tube will be bent so as to effectually closeits opening, and in the several devices and their combinations and arrangements, hereinafter set forth, and pointed out as new in the claims.
In the drawings only so much of a complete water-closet seat as is necessary toillustrate.
the invention is shown.
A represents a frame or support for the seat and bowl, which frame or support may be constructed as shown, or in any other usual and 7 suitable manner, and is to be provided with the usual top and secondary cover;.B, the bowl, of the usual construction; 0, the discharge leading from the bowl, having a water cut-off, as shown; C, the discharge-pipe leadin g to the sewer orother place of deposit.
D is a flexible tubing, which is preferably made of rubber, but which may be made of Fig. 2 is a side elevation ofother suitable flexible material that can be readily bent to close the opening. One end of this tube is suitably connected or attached to the discharge end of the discharge 0, and the other to the inlet end of the discharge-pipe C, so as to complete the connection between these two devices.
E is an arm or lever, made ofa piece of metal or other suitable material, and having, as shown, at itsfree end a weight or head, E. The other end of this lever is made in the form of a fork, the arms a of which have a return bend, forming secondary arms a, which are joined or connected by a cross or end, lbar, b. The arms a are each provided with a suitable opening or ear, 0, for the passage of a rod or bar, 6, which rod or bar may be supported at its ends in suitable hearings or supports, so as to be free to rock as the arm or leverE, which may be firmly connected to the bar 01, is raised and lowered at its free end. The arm might be journaled or hung loosely, so as to turn on the bar; but in either case the rod or bar 01 forms a pivot for the arm or lever. bar 02-, and in line, or nearly so, therewith, is located a bar or rod, 6, which is attached at its ends to the frame or support for the seat in any suitable manner, so as to be firm and unyielding, and these bars or rods d and e are arranged at a sufficient distance apart for the passage between them of that portion of the rubbertube which lies adjacent to the bars to produce a bend in the tube sufficient to effectually close its opening, and this bending of the tube is accomplished by the bar I), which comes in contact with the opposite side of the tube as the arm or lever E is depressed; the tube D being located between the bars d and e and the bar l). The bars dand 6 form tension-bars and the bar 11 a OODIPIGSSlOII b tII for forcing the tube between the bars d and e.
F is the handle or raising-rod for lifting the arm or lever E, which rod is held in vertical position by passing through suitable supports Below the on the frame or supportof the seat, and is connected at its lower end, as shown, with the arm or lever by a link, so as to form afree con- .nection, and its upper end isprovided with the usual knob for raising.
The operation is as follows: When the dis- IOC charge is to be made from the bowl the arm or lever E is raised at its free end through the rod or lift F, carrying the compression-bar b upward and away from the rods 01 and 0, allowing the flexibility of the tube D to resume its natural proportions, leaving afree opening for the passage of the discharge. When the dischargeis completed the arm or lever is allowed to drop by releasing the lift F, bringing the compression-bar 1) into contact with the tube D, and forcing that section of the tube between the bars d and 6 over the bar 0 and under the bar d, closing the tube at this point and forming a stoppage between the two points I) and 0, thus effectually closing the tube and shutting off the escape of the sewer-gas. The position of the parts when the'tube is open is shown in Fig. 2, and when closed in Fig. 1.
The weight in" is not an actual necessity, as the bar could be forced down and held through the rod or hit F; but by providing a weight the descent of the lever is more certain and less care is required in operating the devices.
As shown, two obstructing points formed by the bars d c are provided; but such points need not necessarily be a bar or rod, but could cle and its discharge pipe or tube, of an interposed flexible connection, D, lever or arm E, having fork a, with a return, a, carrying a compression-bar, b, and bars or rods (1 e for compressing the tube, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
2. The combination, with a bowl or recepta- V cle and its discharge pipes or tubes, of a flexible tube, D, weighted arm or lever E E, fork a a, bar b, and bars or rods d e, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
3. The combination, with a bowl or receptacle and its discharge pipe or tube, of the flexible tube D, arm or lever E, fork a a, bars or rods 1) d e, and lift F. substantially as and for the purposes specified.
