UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN R. GILLER, OF WATERBURY, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR TO RANDOLPH do CLOWES, -OF SAME PLACE.
LAVATO RY- L EG SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 516,679, dated March 20, 189,4.
' Application led October 4, 1893.
To @ZZ whom it may concern.-
Beit known that I, JOHN R. GILLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Waterbury, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Lavatory-Legs; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilledin the art to which` it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention has for its object to provide a lavatory leg which shall possess great strength, shall be comparatively inexpensive to produce and which shall be capable 0f ready adjustment up or down to compensate for unevenness in oors, and which may also be shortened to any length which may be required without serious inconvenience, should it become necessary.
With these endsin viewI have devised the novel lavatory leg of which the following description in connection with the accompanying drawings is a specication letters and numbers being used to designate the several parts.
Figure l is a view partly in elevation and partly in section illustrating the use of my novel leg; Fig. 2 a plan view of one leg showing the manner in Whichthe aprons are held, the slab being removed; Fig. 3 an enlarged View of an apron holder detached the socket being in section and the holder at its lowered position; Fig. et a similar view the holder having been raised; Fig. 5 a cross section on the line a; .fr in Fig. 3, and Fig. 6 is a View of an adjustable plug which takes the place of the apron holder as a `rest for the slab when aprons are not used.
A denotes my novel lavatory leg as a whole, B the slab and C aprons. The leg consists essentially of va rod 3 threaded at both'ends, the' upper end being adapted to engage a socket 5 which is also provided with an additional screw thread a which is adapted to be engaged by a corresponding thread ona rest for the slab so as to permit the rest to bev raised or lowered. This rest may be .either Serial No. 487,153. (No model.)
an adjustable apron holder as 6 or an l.adj ustable plug as 8. At the lower end of the rod 5o is an ornamental end piece 9 which is ordinarily provided with a tip l0 adapted to engage a hole in the marble or other floor. The upper end of the end piece andthe lower end of thesocket are provided with hubs 11 which 55 are adapted to pass within the ends of an ornamental tube l2 which entirely covers the rod, and in fact constitutes the main visible portion of the leg. In practice this tube may be made quite light as the weight of the slab 6o andthe aprons if used is entirely supported by the rod. The apron holder 6 is provided ywith the usual slots 13 to receive the ends of the aprons. Both the apron holder and the y plug are provided with tips 10 which are 65 adaptedto engage holes in the slab, sce Fig.
l. This construction enables me to produce very neatly finished and attractive legs at a minimum cost for the reason that the tubes which are made of expensivel metal can b'e 7o made quite light owing to the fact that the weight is supported by the rod. Should it be desired to raise or lower the apron .holder or the plug, e., lengthen or shorten the leg,
it is readily accomplished within reasonable limits as indicated in Figs. 3 and 4 by raising or lowering the rest, c'. e.,the apron holder or plug by turning it in the socket.
My improved leg has another advantage over lavatory legs as ordinarily constructed, 8o in that should it be required to shorten the leg materially the rod and tube may be shortcned at either end and will engage the end piece or socket as before, it being understood of course that the end of the rod will require to be re-threaded should the original thread have been cut away to engage the end piece or the socket as may be.
Having thus described my invention, I claim- 1 j 1. A lavatory leg consisting of arod threaded at both ends, a socket and end piece threaded to receive the ends ot' the rod and provided with hubs, a tube inclosing the rodand engaging the hubs, and a rest for the slab 9 '5 which is adjustable in the socket.
2. A lavatory leg consisting of a rod thread- In testimony whereof I affix my si gnature in ed at both ends, a socket and an end piece presence of two witnesses. threaded to receive lche ends of the rod and provided with hubs, a tube inciosing the rod JOHN R' GILLER' 5 and engaging the hubs, a screw thread ""a vitnesses:
in the socket and an adjustable rest for the CHAS. A. COTTER,
slab having a corresponding screw thread. CYRUS G. BEACH.
