UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EBENEZER NORTH, OF LONDON, CANADA.
CONCRETE-STONE GULLY OR CATCH-BAS lN..
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 554,000, dated February 4, 1896.
Application filed August 10, 1892. Serial No. 442,728. (No model.) Patented in Canada March 7,1892, No. 38,412.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EBENEZER NORTH, a subject of the Queen of Great Britain, and a resident of the city of London, in the Province of Ontario, Canada, have invented a new and useful Concrete-Stone Gully or Catch- Basin, (for which I have obtained a patent in Canada, No. 38,412, dated March 7, 1892,) of which the following is a description.
This invention relates to a device, communicating with a sewer or drain, through which device surface-water or other liquid refuse passes to said sewer or drain, the object being to make a very strong, durable and lasting device, and one, by using which, all choking of the sewer or drain by sand, stones, or other bulky and heavy matter will be completely prevented; and this invention consists of a gully, the greater part of which is made of concrete stone; and it also consists in certain improvements in the construction, as will be hereinafter first fully set forth and then pointed out in the claims.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, as follows:
Figure 1 is a side view of a concrete-stone gully or catch-basin, partly cut away, showing the pivotal trap or valve closed. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of same, showing the pivotal trap or valve open and the upper receptacle and cover removed. Fig. 3 is a detail central sectional view of the upper receptacle and cover. Fig. 4 is a plan view of the grate.
A designates a concrete-stone gully or catch-basin, which may be formed with or without the trap B. \Vhen the latter is used, it prevents the escape of foul air or gas from the sewer or drain with which said catchbasin A communicates. This catch-basin A and trap B may be made of any suitable size, length, or shape and of concrete stone or other suitable or similar material.
By making these gullies or catch-basins of concrete stone it is claimed that they are superior to iron, because they will not corrode; that they are superior to wood, because they will not rot; that they are superior to bricks and mortar, because they will not be affected by the frost and water passing through them; but, on the other hand, the action of the water will tend to petrify and harden these concrete-stone gullies or catch-basins and thereby improve them, and this petri-' faction going on for a number of years makes these catch-basins as hard as stone.
C designates the grate, which prevents the heavy and bulky matter from getting into the catch-basin A.
O designates an opening in the catch-basin A, which communicates with the trap B or with the sewer or drain direct when said trap is not used. This opening is formed well up on the side of the catch-basin A. This forms a pocket D below said opening 0, in which is collected all sand, small stones, and other similar heavy substances which might fall through the grate C but would not readily pass through the sewer or drain.
The trap B is inclined on its inner face toward the pocket D. This makesit self-cleansing, because if any sand or small stones were to fall on its inner surface its inclination would cause them to roll off and into the pocket D, and the agitation of the falling water would further assist in making said trap B self-cleansing.
Projecting from the grate G into the catchbasin A are the arms E, on which is pivoted the trap or valve F, which when inclined, as shown in Fig. l, closes the opening in the catch-basin A and thus shuts off and prevents the escape of foul air or gas from the surface water remaining in the pocket D. This trap F would also materially assist in preventing anything in the pocket D or lower trap B from freezing. This trap F is auto matically opened and closed, as follows: It is automatically closed by being pivotal on the arms E, and having one side weighted, or by pivotally attaching it to the arms E, off the center, in which case its own weight would automatically close it, while the action or weight of the falling water on its inclined face would automatically open it to permit the passage of the water to the pocket D, which then passes to the sewer or drain; and by suspending this trap F by the arms E from the grate C, as shown and described, by removing the grate, the trap F, &c., being connected therewith, are all removed with it,leaving a clear uniform passage throughout the' of concrete stone or other suitable or similar material, and may be formed integral with or secured to the catch-basin A.
This concrete-stone gullymay be used with or without the receptacle II and cover G, if desired.
The cover G is fitted to the ring I, and when closed acts as a trap to prevent the gas escaping from the catch-basin A or receptacle II, and .under some circumstances, when the coverG is used, the interior trap F and hangers E E may be dispensed with.
The device as shown in Fig. 2 may be, and is preferably, used for catching the surface water from streets and conducting it to the sewers, while the device shown in Fig. 1 may be and is preferably, used in yards to gather refuse, the solid matter being retained in the receptacle II to be afterward removed, the liquid refuse passing through the catch-basin and trap 13 to thedrain.
Having thus described my invention, I claim 1. A gully or catch-basin, A, having an open top or mouth, and formed with an outlet, 0, in combination with a perforated cover, C, adapted to shield the mouth of said basin, and a valve, F, connected to said cover by the arms, E, E, substantially as shown and described, and for the purpose set forth.
2. A gully or catch-basin, A, having an open top or mouth, and formed with an outlet, 0, and pocket, D, below said outlet all made of concrete stone, in combination with a perforated cover, C, adapted to shield the mouth of said basin, and a valve, F, connected to said cover by the arms, E, E, substantially as shown and described, and for the purpose set forth.
3. A gully or catch-basin A formed with the trap 13 and with the opening 0 and pocket D all made of concrete stone, in combination with .the grate C, arms E, E, and pivotal valve F, substantially as shown and described and for the purposes specified.
In testimony whereof I affixmy signature in the presence of the two undersigned witnesses.
EBENEZER NORTH.
