Description

UNITED STATES F F ICE.
JOHN BROVER, 0F NEVARK, NEW JERSEY.
Speciiication forming part of Letters Patent No. dv'ium, dated November 2Q, 1864.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN BROWER, ot' the city of Newark, in the county of Essex and State ot' New Jersey, have invented certain Improvements in Valves for later-Closets; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full and exact description of the sa-me, reference being herein had to the drawings that accompany this specification and which make part ot' the same.
The nature ot' my improvement consists in rendering the valve seltadj usting and watertight by a peculiar construction ofthe same.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a view of the under side of the valve and seat. Fig. 2 shows the upper side. Fig. 3 shows the outer edge of the valve and seat; Fig. Il, the connection of the valve with the closing-lever; Fig. 5, a sectional view of the valve and seat; Fig. 6, the ordinary way of adjustment now in common use in ships and steamboats, Fig. 7, the same in section.
lhe same letters refer to the same parts in each figure.
The sectional view, Fig. 5, shows the position of the valve when in use. The'receiving basin is attached to the tiange A on the valveseat B, and its contents are discharged by lifting a handle in the seat, thehandle being on the top end of a rod connected to the leverI -usual way (shown in Fig. 7) the edge of the ciieular valve E is beveled, and the seat B has the same bevel, the valve E being held to the bar D by the screw and nut .r at the center, and is adjustable by means of the three screws that are shown by y in Figs. 6 and '7.
To accommodate the Workman, the valve E has to be removed when the valve-seat is being connected with the basin and dischargepipe, and there is no certainty that the adjustment of the valve when replaced shall be correct, and no means, short ot' disconnection, of access to make needed alterations when the valve is constructed in the ordinary manner. To obviate this difficulty, I attach the valve to the bar D by a ball-and-soeket joint, Fig. el, and have a groove in the valve seat B,
shaped as shown in Fig. 3, and the edge ot' the valve E turned to lit thereto. By leaving the nut w a little loose the valve adjusts itself accurately when replaced after removal.
It is desirable that the valve should be watertight when closed, to retain water and pre ventodor 5 also, to prevent,the draft of cold air up the water-closets of seagoing and river vessels, which objects are attained by my improvement.
I do not claim, broadly, the adjustment of valves by semispherical attachments and shaped joints.
What I claim, and desire to secure, is-
A water-closet valve held to its place by a bar secured by a semispherieal connection and rendered Water-tight by means of a V- shaped joint, all substantially as shown and described.
JOHN BROWER.
