SEAT-CONNECTION FOR WATER-CLOSET c|s'|"| a 1s.
SPECIFICATION forming part Of Letters Patent NO. 376,867, datedJanuary 24,1888 v Application filed March 21 1857. Serial No. 231,681. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, JOHN DEMAREST, of
the city, county, and State of New York, have invented an Improvement in Seat-Connections 'for Water-Closet Cisterus; and the following is declared to be a description of the -san1e.
Water-closet seats have heretofore been supported by an inclosing frame-work of wood, or by metal legs, and said seats have automatically operated a lever and chain to the flushing-cistern, whereby water was supplied to flush and wash out the closet.
My-invention relates to "a seat-connection for water-c1osets wherein brackets support the wall-plate and seat,and upon one of which 'bracketsis pivoted a compound lever, one.
end of which lever is connected bya chain to the valve-lever of a flushing-cistern, the other end of which lever is provided with a roller and holds up the seat when not in use. The depression of the seat brings it down upon the supporting-brackets,and at the same time operates the compound lever for flushing the closet automatically.
In the drawings, Figure I is asection of the seat and elevation of the supporting-bracket; and Fig. 2 is a plan of the same, the closet being shown in dotted lines.
The closet A isof any desired character. It may be of porcelain such as theInodora or Dolphin.
p The seat B and wall-plate G are of the usual construction,-and I provide the brackets D,
the wall-plate O is connected, the seat B being hinged to the wall-plate at a, in the usual manner.
The compound lever consists of the portions Upon the upturnedend of the lever 0 is a roller, e, and in the normal position of the parts, as shown, the seat rests upon said roller e.
secured to the wallE, and to which brackets When the closet is used, the seat is depressed to the position shown in dotted lines, and it then rests upon and the weight of the occupant is supported by thebrackets D,,and 5 5 at the same time the roller e is depressed and the leversb o, by the .jaw and cylinder-joint 3 4, are moved to the position shown in dot-g ted lines, thus pulling 'on the chain dand giving the preliminary movement to the valve 60, in the flushing-cistern. When the seat B 18 released after the closet has been used, the parts return to their normal position, as shown in full lines, and the seat is raised and the flushing-wateris discharged into the closetA.
The brackets D extend out beyond the edge of the wall-plate 0 fully one-half the length of the seat B, and thus not only provide for the pivotal connections of the levers Z) 0, but form a firm support for the seat B when the closet is I in use. 7 The roller elessens friction between the seat and causes the parts to move freely.
I claimas myinvention- 1. The combination, with the water-closet and seat, of brackets connected to the wall 7 5 and supporting the'seat,hinges upon which the seat can swing, a lever pivoted to one of the brackets and acted upon .by the seat to move the closet-valve by the depression of the seat, substantially as set forth. p
' 2. The combinatiomin a water-closet, with the wall-plate O'andseat' B, hinged together, of the brackets D, the compound lever 11 c,
pivoted to the face of the bracket, the chain d, connected to one end of said lever, and the 8 roller 6 upon the other end, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
3. The combination, ina water-closet, with a hinged seat, of brackets to support the seat,
a compound lever pivoted to the bracket and '90 having ajaw on one end of one part, a cylinder on the end of the other part entering said jaw, a'chain connected too'ne end ofthe compound lever, and the seat acting upon the:
other end of said lever, substantially as and 5 for the purposes set forth.-
Signed by me this 15th day of arch, A. D.

JOHN ABEL, G30. 0. GOELLER.
