MVMZQ T UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOSEPH PENNEY, OF GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN.
DEVICE FOR EJEC T ING WATER OR OTHER LIQUIDS FROM CONTAINING-TANKS TO BASINS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 428,943, dated May 27, 1890.
Application filed June '7, 1888. Serial No. 276,398. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOSEPH PENNEY, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city of Grand Rapids, county of Kent, and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Device for Ejecting ater or other Liquid from a Containing Tank or Reservoir to a Basin or other Receptacle, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to the class of portable and stationary wash-stands in which the water is supplied from a tank located at a lower level than the wash-stand,and provides devices for forcing the water from the tank into the basin without the interposition of pumping-lift and check-valves and the usual packing incident to such appliances.
The objects of my invention are, first, to construct a cheap and effective device for transferring water directly from a lower tank to a higher basin, and, second, to utilize the tank itself as one of the elements in ejecting the water contained through a pipe or conductor from itself to the required receptacle. These objects I accomplish by means of the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a perspective view of a case with the front removed, in order to show the interior arrangements of the case and the position of the tank, basin, and connectingpipe. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view on line X X of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the bottom of the inclosed and movable displacement-plunger hereinafter described; and Fig. 4. is a sectional View of the same, showingamodified form of fixtures and float-valve.
Similar letters refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
The casing is shown by A, and may be of any suitable design or form or material.
0 represents a tank, which may be of any form desired, preferably cylindrical.
I is a displacement-plunger (made of any suitable material) placed within tank 0, fitted to slide freely against its walls, and having 'in its bottom an opening N, the two together forming the supply tank or reservoir, which may be filled from the top in the ordinary way.
B is the wash-basin. E is a pipe connecting the bottom of the tank 0 with the washbasin. I prefer to so connect the pipe E to the tank, as a side pipe to it, that they may be removed together from the case A.
J is the bottom of the displacement-plunger I. N is an opening through it, and beneath the opening N is placed a valve K, which I prefer to make of cork or other light material, which by its buoyancy will keep always against its seat without hinging or other fastening than the confining-straps M,whioh prevent it from floating away. Upon pouring water into the top of the tank this valve offers no resistance to the complete filling of the entire tank 0 above and below the valve simultaneously, and the water stands in the conducting-pipe at the level of that in the tank, being entirely open to the bottom of the tank. T0 the bottom of the displacementplunger I a bail L is attached, and to that a connecting-rod H, loosely hinged at O, is fastened, and the upper end of said connectinglever F, which forms part of a rock-shaft G, fulcrumed below the top of the case, the two arms of the said lever F being so arranged that one extends above the tank 0 and connects with the plunger-rod, while the other arm extends in the same plane above the basin and serves as a hand-lever. The lever for controlling the motion of the plunger-rod is thus below the horizontal plane of the top of the casing and out of the way.
The displacement-plunger upon being raised by means of the connecting-rod and the fulcrumed lever F produces no effect on the contained water, merely passing through its volume upward, but upon being, by reversal of the motion, depressed forces the water which is below the floating-valve through the con ducting-passage into the basin, except such portions as by the loose telescopic fit of the plunger and tank-wall passes-to the upper side of the valve and stands quiescent there. In operation this is insignificant. The operation may be repeated until the tank is emptied.
D is a removable waste-water receiver. By the use of my device no packing of piston or stems is required and no moving mechanism, except the displacemcut-plunger, connecting rods, and levers for actuating the same, all of which by the arrangement are concealed be rod is similarly hinged at O to a two-armed low the top or slab of the casing which may be hinged or otherwise made removable for access to the basin, and that the tank maybe filled or cleaned through its then open top or be removed entirely.
Having thus described myinvention, what I claim to have invented, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
In a wash-stand, the combination oi. an outer casing, a basin supported in the upper part of the casing, a water-supply tank hav ing its bottom below the level of the basin and its upper end extended nearly to the top of the casing, a pipe connecting the lower end of the said tank with the basin, a displacement-plunger fitting" the tank-walls and having in its lower end an opening for the passage of water dowi'lward through said plun- DGSSCS. i
