ROBERT ROBINSON, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.

FAUCET.

' SPECIFICATION -forming part of Letters Patent No. 274,385, dated March 20, 1883.

Application filed May 5, 1.882` (No model.)

To all whom. 'it may concern Be it known that I, ROBERT ROBINSON, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Faucets; and l do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon,which form part of this specification.

My invention relates to improvements in faucets in which equal quantities of two liqnids can be drawn from one discharge-pipe or a given quantity of one or both liquids ,I in other words, in which one eductiOn-port can he brought in communication with one or two supply-ports, as desired and the object of my improvement is to obtain this .end with the maximum simplicity of construction. l attain this object bythe mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 represents a sectional elevation of one form of cock embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is an elevation of the plug A, showing the relative location ofthe induction and educdotted lines. Fig. 3 isV a similar elevation, showing the educiion-ports in full and the induction in dotted lines. Fig. 4. represents another form of faucet embodying the principle of my invention, and Fig. 5 a sectional elevation of the plug, showing the relative location of the supply-'ports B B'.

A represents the plug Oi' the faucet, which, as illustrated by Figs. l, 2, and 3, has a supply-port, B', in the upper hollow part thereof, communicating with pipe E, and an eductionport, B", in the lower hollow part, communi- In the lower solid part of the plug is a supply-port, B, communicating with the pipe F, its eduction-port B being in a direct line on the opposite side, also facing the common ednctionpipe G. The supply-ports B B are cut in such a manner that their inner longitudinalwalls are in the same straight line parellel to the axis.

The plug is mounted in a casing, E', having a swivel -bearing therein. Its lower end is threaded, so as to engage a nut, O, holding in place a washer, J. Motion is imparted to the plug by a crank, D, in the form shown in Fig. 1, by the eduction pipe or bib G, as shown in E and F are pipes communicating withseparate reservoirs. y

For practical purposes the plug describes an arc oione hundred and eighty degrees. When the plug is in a normal position-that is, when the crank D or bib G is at zero or one hundred and eighty degreesthe cock or faucet is closed. YVhen the plug' is rotated, so that is angle is forty-five degrees, the eduction-pipe is in communication with the pipe E, and only one kind of liquid is drawn'. When the plug is rotated until 'its angle is ninety degrees the discharge Or ednction pipe G is in communication with both the pipes E drawn. When the plug is rotated until its angle is one hundred and thirty-(ive degrees the eductionlpipe G is in communication with the pipe F, and only one kind of liquid is drawn. Y'Vheu the plug is rotated until its angle is one hundred 'and eighty degrees the eduction pipe G is in communication with neither of the pipes E F, and hence no liquid is drawn. y

ln the construction shown in Fig. 4 theplug A is held in the casing E by a threaded nut, C, at the lower end, and at its upper end bya threaded nut, I, engaging with exterior threads on the casing E', forming thereby a binding contact between the plug A and the elastic unthreaded portion of the casing.

The ednction -pipe G is screwed into the threaded head of the plug A, so that its duct shall be in alignment with that of theplug A, as shown in Fig. 4.

Having Vdescribed my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent ofthe United States, is

,Y 1. In a faucet, a .plug having supply-apertures cut therein, sothat their inner longitudinal walls abut on the same straight line parallel to the axis, substantially as set forth.

2. In afaucet, in combination with a casing, E', having supplypipes E F and dischargef pipe G, a plug, A, partially hollow, having apertures B B B" B, and means for imparting rotation to said plug, substantially as set forth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own Lafiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
