H. KEL'LNER. PAIL HOLDER FOR FAUCETS.
Patented Dec. 30, 1890.
' uIlIl/l/I/I/II IJv VBVOR WITNESSES Y NITED STATES HENRY KELLNER, OF DANBURY, CONNECTICUT.
PAIL-HOLDER FOR FAUCETS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 443,771, dated December 80, 1890.
Application filed April 24, 1890. Serial No. 349,243. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY KELLNER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Danbury, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Pail-Holders for Faucets; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable othersskilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention has for its object to devise a pail or bucket holder, which may be produced at but slight expense and attached to any ordinary water-faucet, and which will securely hold a pail, bucket, or kettle while being filled with water.
With this end in view I have devised the simple and novel construction, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, numbers being used to denote the several parts.
Figure l is an elevation of a water faucet, showing my novel pail-holder applied thereto by threads engaging threads upon the faucet, the holder being in section and a pail being shown suspended from the holder; Fig. 2, a plan view of one of my novel. pail-holders adapted to be attached to an unthreaded fauest, a pail-handle being denoted by dotted lines. Fig. 3 is a section of the hook or horn of the holder, with the pail-handle in dotted lines; and Fig. 4 is a plan view of one of my novel pail-holders made as in Fig. 1- that is, so as to adapt it for attachment to a threaded faucet.
I have indicated in dotted lines the position of the ordinary wooden hand-piece of a handle or bail, illustrating the manner of its engagement with my novel holder.
1 denotes a water-faucet, which may be of any suitable or preferred construction, the construction of the faucet having nothing to do with my present invention, except so far as the mode of attachment is concerned. It is of course well understood that ordinary faucets are quite frequently provided with threads, as at 2 in Fig. 1, to adapt them to receive the coupling of an ordinary lawnhose. When not provided with screw-threads, the nozzles of faucets are made smaller and slipping.
smooth upon their outer surface. This,being a well-known construction, is not deemed to require illustration.
My novel holder consists, essentially, of an attaching-ring, denoted by 4, and a horn or hook, denoted by 5. The exact length, width, or shape of the horn is of course not of the essence of my invention.
In practice I ordinarily make the holders of cast-iron or brass and give ample thickness of metal to the horns to insure that they will stand any possible strain that can be placed upon them-as, for example, the weight of a heavy pot or kettle filled with water. The outer end of the horn is curved upward, as at 6, so that it is impossible for the bail or handle of a kettle or pail to slip off when it has once been hung thereon. An important feature of construction is that I provide the horn with a longitudinal groove 7 in its upper surface, which is adapted to receive the enlargement of the ordinary hand-piece of a bail or handle. It is of course well understood that these hand-pieces are for convenience in carrying made of greatest diameter at the center. The object of longitudinal groove 7 is to just receive this central enlargement, so that pails or buckets having handles of this character will be held centrally while being filled and there shall be no danger of their slipping sidewise and spilling the contents. \Vith pots or kettles having ordinary wire balls or handles there is no danger of slipping, as the bail will engage both of the outer edges of the horn, and thus prevent The same is true where the under side of the handle is straight across, as is frequently the case with tin tearkettle handles, the great difficulty being with pails or buckets having hand pieces with central enlargements, and this difficulty I wholly overcome by providing the longitudinal groove 7.
When it is designed to attach my novel hooks to faucets made smooth upon their outer sides, I make the opening through the attaching-ring (denoted by 8) of sufficient size to receive the lower end of the faucet freely, as in Fig. 2, and provide set=screws 9, which engage the opposite sides of the faucet and lock the holder firmly in position.
. When it is designed to attach my novel holders to faucets having threads upon their securing the same to the nozzle of a faucet, said ring hein g provided with an outwardlyextending and upWardly-turned hook or horn 5, having a longitudinal groove 7 in its upper side, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I aifix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
