JAMES W. BIRKETT, OF BROOKLYN, NEV YORK.
WATERCLOSET ATTACHMENT.
EPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 299,333, dated May 27, 1884.
Application filed January 14, 1884. (No model.)
To all whom it' may concern,.-
Be it known that I, J Aims W. Binirnrr, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tater-Closet Attachments; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description ofthe invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same," reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to certain improvements in watercloset attachments, the details whereof are fully described in the following specification, and clearly shown in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a vertical longitudinal sectional View of my invention, and Fig. 2 is a similar view of a modification.
Like letters of reference indicate similar parts.
A refers to the bowl. B is the trap, and (l the discharge-pipe. D indicates the piill-han dle, E the exitwalve, and F the overflow for the bowl. f
T is the trunk, within which I place the mechanism for simultaneously operating the exit-valve E and liberating the water-supply; and this mechanism consists of the toggle-lever arms G G', connecting the exit-valve E and the bent lever H, and pivoted at their inner ends to the verticalAmoving pull-handle roda At this point I insert the connecting link or ring R, for convenience and simplicity of mechanism, and to the upper side thereof the pull-handle rod is pivoted, while the togglelever arms are pivoted at or nearly at points equidistant from the handle-rod. A less cum* brons joint is thus made, and the toggle-lever arms do not interfere with each other when the pull-handle is raised. At the same time their operation is effective and simple, and the exitvalve E will be tightly wedged, when closed, between the packing and the lower end of the bent vlever H. The bent lever H, when the pull-handle is raised, operates to communicate horizontal movement to a push-rod, J, by
means of pin h and slot j. To the other end of this rod J, I connect the water-supply valve by means of a cord, K, fastened at any desired point, so that it will fall over the line of movement of said push-rod. The pulleyL is inserted in the end of rod J, and its grooved face runs on the cord. When the pull-handle is raised, the pulley L pushes cord K out of line, and thus shortens the direct distance between its ends. Power is thus communicated to the water-supply device. It is, however, evident that while this form of connection is described, any suitable or well-known mechanism may be employed that is capable of performing substantially the same function; or the push-rod might be connected direct with the valve, as in Fig. 2, the system of levers remaining the same. The exit-valve E being suitably hung at e, when the pull-handle israised, one arm of the toggle-lever opens said eXit-valve, and the other arm operates the water-supply through bent lever H, which is pivoted at t'.
Through the exit-valve E, and at right angles thereto, extends the tube F, forming the overflow for the bowl. The outer end of this tube is bent and continued upward to a height on a level with the desired water-level of the bowl. At every operation of said valve this overilow-tube is entirely emptied, thusavoiding clogging or stoppage, and facilitating the successful working of the closet.
The fulcrum of the supporting-lever H and the hinge of the valve E being on opposite sides` of the trunk, and the lower portion of said lever H and the valve E both moving toward the center of the trunk, the intervening levers and connections between them will move simultaneoiisly, and the power used to elevate or depress said pull-rod will be applied without the intervention of any sliding parts.
I claiml. In a water-closet, a toggle-lever having vertically -inoving connecting-link, and the outer ends of its arms pivoted to andsuppcrted, respectively, by the exit-valve and the watersupply-operating lever, as set forth.
2. In a water-closet, the pull-handle D, push-rod J, pivoted bent lever H, and suitable connecting mechanism, in combination IOO with a valve-controlling cord fixed at one end and adapted to be drawn downward by the thrust of said push-rod, substantially as described.
5 3. In a Water-closet, the combination of exit-valve E, provided with suitable overow, the toggle-levers G G', and connecting-link R, interposed between said togglelevers and the pivoted bent lever H, said lever H also being Connected to and operating the Water- 1o supply-controlling devices, substantially as shown and described.
