EDVARD ROVE, OF INDIANA,`PENNSYLVANIA,
RAIN-WATER CUT-OFF AND STRAINER.
SPECIFICATION forming pari. of Letters Patent No. 358,820, dated March l, 1887..
Application filed June 30, ISHS T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, 'EDWARD Rown, a citizen ofthe United States, residing at Indiana, in the county of Indiana and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Rain-Water Cut-Offs and Strainers; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description ot' the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it apperlainsto make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or Jguresof reference marked thereon, which forni a part of this specitication.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a representation of this invention, and is a vertical section. Fig. 2 is a top view ofthe elliptical receivingchamber.
My invention relates to rain-water cut-offs and strainers; and it consists in the construction and novel combination of parts, as hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claim.
The object of this device is to divert rainwater from a root' from one conductor to another, and is used n'iainlyto run the first water of a shower. which is generally dirty, into the sewer, after which the clean water is directed into the cistern or other receptacle.
Referring by letter to the accompanying drawings, A designates the upper portion ot'- the rain-water spout, which is connected at its upper end to the eaves-trough in the ordinary manner, and extends down to within a proper distance of the ground, where it enters or extends a short distance into the slightlyenlarged upper end of a lower section, B, of spout, which is hinged at one side to the lower end of the upper section, A, and is provided en its outside, near its upper end, with a gravity-weight, C, which tends to hold the said lower section, B, normally in line with the upper section, A, of the spout.
The lower section, B, is provided, a short distance below the gravity-weight C, with an eye, D, to which the upper end of a controlling chain, wire, or cord, or movable rod, E, is secured, the lower end of said cord E being connected to a nail or the like, so that it can be readily reached by a person inside the building from the window or a door of the building, so that it will be unnecessary to go out in the rain to operate the cut-off.
Serial No. 206,723. [No model.)
The lower end of the hinged or swinging section B of the pipe or spout extends into the open upper end of an elliptical receivingchamber, G, having two discharge pipes or nozzles, G and G2, at its lower end, one, G', leading to the sewer and the other, G2, leading into the cistern or other rain-water receptacle. The receiving-chamber G is provided with a short vertical partition, H, which rises from the bridge between the two discharge pipes or nozzles G and Gi, and extending from this portion H. over the discharge leading to the cistern, is a screen, I, which is of wire or perforated sheet metal. This screen I is slightly inclined toward the open discharge-pipe G, so that any dirt that may fall upon it will be carried down said incline, and will pass out th rough the open discharge-pipe after the wa-,
ter has been directed upon the screen, thereby causing or permitting only clean water to euter the cistern. After the roof has been washed free from dirt the chain, cord, or wire may be tied in a loose condition, so that it will permit the hinged section to hang in its normal position and convey the rain-water to the cistern or other receptacle without further attention on the partof the operator. The lower section ot' spout or pipe should be large enough at its upper end and small enough at its lower end to work easily.
After the rain has ceased to fall from the roof the cord may be again drawn upon. to direct the hinged pipe to the sewer, or at any time, should it be necessary, this maybe done.
Having described this invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-
The combination, with the rain-water spout, of the hinged controlling-pipe weighted on the side opposite the hinge, the operatingcord, and the receptacle G, provided with the discharge G G2, the vertical partition H, and
the screen I, connected to the inner wall of the receptacle G, and resting on the vertical partit-ion H, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence ot' two witnesses.
EDVARD ROWVE.
