FAUCET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 338,353, dated March 23, .1886.
Application filed February 4, 1885.
To @ZZ whom it may concern,.-
Beit known that we, DAVID MoRRIs and THnonoRn MoRRIs, of the city and county of San Francisco, in the State of California, have invented an Improvement in Faucets; and we hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
Our invention relates to certain improvements in faucets through which Water or other liquid is to be drawn under pressure.
Referring to the accompanying drawings for a more complete explanation of ourinvention, Figure 1 is a longitudinal vertical section of a faucet, showing the valve closed. Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the valve open.
In the ordinary construction of faucets they are either made so that the valve must be opened and closed by hand, with the danger of iiooding in ease the valve is left open,or, if made self-closing, they are operated by a spring, which is apt to get out of order.
In our invention we use a balance-valve so arranged that it shall have sufcient pressure to close itself when the operating-lever is released, and it is at the same time so nearly balanced that the valve may be easily opened under a heavy pressure.
A is the inlet-passage of the faucet, and B is the outlet-passage. Adiaphragm, C, extends across the space between the passages A and B, as shown. This diaphragm is so constructed that its upper and lower portions are directly beneath the vertical opening D of the faucet, so that they may be drilled through for the reception of the valves.
The lower portion, C, of the diaphragm has a hole bored through it and a valve-seat formed upon its upper surface to receive thc valve E. The passage through the diaphragm opens into a chamber beneath, which communicates directly with the discharge-passage B of the faucet, as shown.
The upper portion of the diaphragm Chas a hole bored in it large enough to allow the valve E to slip through it freely, and this hole has screw-threads formed in it, into which the upper valve-seat, F, is screwed, as shown.
' Through the center of this upper valve-seat a hole is made, and the stem G passes loosely through the hole, having the valve E fixed to its lower end, as shown,V and the valve H se- Seral No.154,936. (No model.)
cured to it above the valve-seat F, and so arranged with relation to the valve E that both will close simultaneously upon their seats at the same time.
The opening through the valve seat F around the stein G is sufliciently large to allow a small portion of water to pass upward into the chamber D above the valve H, into which it may escape through anarrow passage, I, into 6o the discharge-passage B ofthe faucet.
The valve E being larger than the valve H, it will be seen that the pressure upon it willbe sulicient to keep both valves totheirseat; but the difference between the valves Eand His so adjusted that the stein G may be easily raised and open the valve by means of a lever, J, the innerend of which is hinged toanut, K,which is screwed upon the ripper end of the stem G.
The cap L. which closes the upper part of 7o the passage D, has a packing, so that it will be water-tight, and a Iiange or rim projecting up` ward,so that the lever J may rest upon it asa fulcrum, the lever being bent downward at that point, so that wherever it may be turned it will always press upon the rim.
Vhen it is desired to open the valve, it is only necessary to press upon the outer end of the lever, when the inner end, with the stem, will be raised and the valve opened. As soon 8c as the lever is released,tl1e valve will close,on account of the greater area of the lower portion, E. The closing of the valve is assisted by a collar, E', which is secured to the lower end of the valve stem G ashort distance below the val ve E. This collar lies partially within the opening through the valveseat when the valve is raised, and the rush of the pouring water will act upon it and assist in closing the valve when the lever is released. The valves 9o E and H are preferably made of hollow metal, and a disk of leather or rubber, a, is iittedinside. The edges are then spun or turned down over the edges of the disk, so as to hold them in place. 9
We are aware of English Patent No. 2,204 of l860,wherein is shown a faucet having ingress and egress passages with an intervening partition having upper and lower openings and seats, and valves of different diameters adapted; roo to said seats, the said valves being united by a stem, and adapted to be kept to their seats by the pressure of a spiral spring surrounding valve-seat in its upper portomvalves of dierent diameters united by astem adapted to said discharge-openings, combined with a supple- Y15 mental collar, E, secured to the valve'stein below the Valveseat, substantially asdescribed. In witness whereof We have hereunto set our hands.
