GEORGE F, GOOMBER, OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI.
FAUC ET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 272,858, dated February 27, 1883.
Application filed November 20, 1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, GEORGE F. GOOMBER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Kansas City, in the county of Jackson and State of Missouri, have invented a new and useful Faucet, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying 'drawin gs.
This invention relates to cocks and'faucets of that class in which the valve is held closed by the fluid-pressure; and it consists incer tain improvements in the construction of the same, which will be hereinafter fully described, andparticularly pointed out in the claims.
In the drawings hereto annexed. Figure 1 is a longitudinal vertical sectional view of my improved faucet open. Fig. 2 is a section on the line w as in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal vertical sectional view, showing the faucet closed. Fig. 4 is aseclion on the line yyin Fig. 3, and Fig. 5 is a front view.
The same letters refer to the same parts in all the figures.
Referring to the drawings hereto annexed, A represents the body of my improved faucet, which consists of the main shank B and out.-
let-spout O. The rear end of the main shank double incline.
K is the valve-stem, which passes longitudinally through the main shank B, the front end of which has an opening, L, surrounded by a flange, M, to receive a packing-washer, N, placed around the said stem. A spring, 0, coiled upon the valve-stem between the handle P and the washer, serves to keep the latter in place, and also to force the valve-stem in an outward direction, said spring being itself kept in place by the flange M. The inner end of the valve-stem carries the valve, which consists of a leather or other elastic disk, Q, and a metal disk, R, both secured in place by a nut; S. The metal disk R is provided on diametrically-opposite sides with downwardlyprojecting flanges T, bearing upon or against the rim or shoulder G.
It will be readily seen from the foregoing description, taken in connection with the drawings hereto annexed, that when the valvestem is turned in such a manner as to cause the valve-disk R to travel up the inclined shoulder or shoulders G, the valve is drawn back from its seat, thus permitting the fluid to pass out. W'hen,on the contrary, the handle is released, the spring 0 forces the valve-stem in a forward direction, thus drawing the valve to its seat; but before reaching the seat it will be seen that-the valve-disk R has to make a one-quarter turn in passing down the inclines G G, thereby arresting the force of the blow of the water and preventing injury to the valve or its seat or connecting-pipes.
I desire to state that while the construction just described is, perhaps, the one to be pret'erred, yet I wish to reserve to myself the right of making such changes and alterations as may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Iclaim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States-- 1. In a self-closing faucet of the class described, the shank or body having at its rear end an enlarged chamber provided with an annular rim or valve-seat, and an inclined shoulder, beveled or inclined, as shown, from its top and bottom toward both sides, in combination with a valve and mechanism for operating the same, as set forth.
2. The combination, with the faucet-body having at its rear end a chamber provided with an annular rim or valve-seat, and with an annular shoulder, beveled or inclined, as shown, of the longitndinallysliding stein carryingavalve comprising a metallicdisk having flanges which travel upon the said inclined annular shoulder, as set forth.
' 3. The herein-described improved faucet,consisting-essentially of the shank or body, having at its rear end an enlarged chamber pro- Vitle(1 with an annular rim or valve-seat and.
an inclined shoulder, a longitudinally-sliding and revolving stem carrying a valve, consisting of an elastic and a metal disk, the latter havingdownturnedflanges.asshowmtraveiing upon the said inclined shoulder, and a spring adapted to force the said valve-stem in a forward direction, all arranged and operating substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE FREDERICK COOMBER.
