NOZZLE FOR HOSE OFI SPRINKLERS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N0. 556,291, dated March 10, 18976. Application filed November 20, 1895. Serial No. 569,567. (No model.)
T0 a/ZZ whom it may concern:
Be itknown that I, Isaac J. TURNER, a subject of the Queen of Great Britain, residing at Victoria, in the county of Buncombe and State of North Carolina, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Noz- 'zles for Hose or Sprinklers, of which the following is a specification.
The spraying device forming the subject of this invention involves the principle of action of two streams of water meeting, whereby their impact causes a mutual spraying, and in the application of this principle for useful and ornamental purposes I have designed a spraying device having two converging oriiices, preferably circular in form and concentric, or annular nozzles formed to discharge two streams in such direction as to meet close to but outside of the device. Many different combinations of the two streams may be had by slight changes in the construction of the spraying device. One of the streams may radiate from a center in a flat plane and the other stream issue from an annular nozzle and be directed against it; or both streams may be conical in form, one moving from the larger to the smaller part of the cone and the other one in the opposite direction, so as to meet; or one stream may radiate in a flat plane and the other one be a hollow cylindrical stream orboth the streams may be conical and hollow, one issuing outwardly and the other issuing inwardly from the end of the device, the two streams meeting at an angle; or the two streams may issue from the perimeter of a cylindrical end of the device in such direction as to meet, the two streams being similar in form-that is, both may be conical, or one conical and the other one flat. In general, in construction my spraying device consists of a main piece `or body having a circular opening, a hollow valve or stream-guide open at its outer end, located inthe body and extending through its opening and with it constituting an annular nozzle, means for adjusting this hollow valve, a cap or stream-guide located over the open outer end of the valve andwith said open end constituting the other nozzle, and means for adjusting this cap.
The drawings show some of the forms in which my invention may be applied to useful and ornamental purposes and to which I will now refer.
Figure l is a side elevation of a spraying device in which a radiating iiat stream meets a conical stream. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section, and Fig. 3 is an end view, of the same. Fig. 4 shows in section the nozzle end of a spraying device in which two conical streams meet moving in opposite directions. Fig. 5 is a similar view in which an outwardly-moving conical stream will meet an inwardlymoving conical stream. Fig. 6 is a similar View in which two conical streams will issue,
from the side of the device and meet to form a spray, and Fig. 7 is a sectional view of a spraying device constructed to produce a radiating iiat stream and a cylindrical stream.
The body a is preferably cylindrical in form and has at its side the water-inlet pipe a, provided with the usual pipe or hose connection. The front end of the body is covered by the screw-cap b, having a central circular opening, and in the body is located the hollow valve c, the conical end c of which extends through the opening of the cap b, and the stem c2 of the valve is screw-threaded and held in the other end of the body, a packing-box CZ being provided to embrace the stem beyond the screw-thread. On the projecting end of the stem of the valve cis secured the hand-wheel e, by means .of which the conical end c of the valve may be set in dierent positions relative to the opening of the body or cap b of the body, or said opening may be entirely closed.
The outer end of the conical part c of the valve is open, and over this opening lis held the cap f, which with the said end of the valve constitutes the other stream-producing nozzle. This cap f is carried on the rod f', which extends entirely through the valve c and its stem, said rod being held and guided near its outer end by the spider-bearing f2 located in the valve. is screw-threaded where it fits in the stem c2 of the valve, and the outer end of the stem is provided with a packing-box g, surrounding the rod f. The projecting end of the rod 5 A part of this rod f' 9 IOO f' has secured to it the hand-wheel 7L. By this arrangement the cap f may be adjusted relative to the end of the valve c and the opening at the end of the valve entirely closed when desired. The valve c is perforated, as shown, to permit water from the body a to iiow out of the end of the valve. Now from this construction and arrangement of parts it will be seen that a flat radiating stream will issue from under the cap f and a conical stream along the conical end c of the valve, the meeting of the two streams causing a disintegration or spraying of them, the spread of resultant angular field of said spray being determined by the relative volumes and forces of the two streams, which maybe readily adj usted by the manipulation of the handwheels e and h. This controlling of the spray iield by the adjustment of the two stream nozzles applies to all of the devices shown, except that shown at Fig. 7, and need not be repeated in describing the other views.
The constrution of Fig. 4i is the same as that just described, with the exception of the cap, and the corresponding parts, as well as the corresponding parts of the other views, are similarly lettered. For the cap f is here substituted a hollow cap i, the edge of which extends over the conical end c of the valve, thus causing a stream to issue down the conical end c' to meet the stream formed by the valve and the cap l), resulting in a spray more or less spread out according to the adjustment of the parts of the device.
AtFig. 5 the conical end j of the valve has its inner part formed with a reverse conical surface, and in this reverse inner cone is located the cap k, about in the plane with the cap b. By means of this arrangement and construction of parts it will be seen that the resultant spray of the two conical streams will be confined in a more or less restricted field and will generally be of a more solid character than the spray from the other devices, this form of my invention being thought best for use for extinguishing fires and where large volumes of water are needed.
In the device shown in Fig. 6 the cap b or end of the hbody is omitted. The streams-controlling valves consist of the flanged-shaped head l, having inclined sides, so as to form a sharp edge, said head extending beyond the end of the body ct and forming one of the stream-nozzles with said end of the body, as shown. The cap m on the rod f is the same size the body a and with the outer side of the head l constitutes the other stream-nozzle. The resultant spray of such a device will be practically in a fiat plane and would probably be most suitable for ornamental purposes.
At Fig. 7 my invention is shown applied in a device adapted to be used as a lawn-sprinkler. In this form the part n corresponds to the valves in the other forms and is here shown as a part of the body n', and is shown cylindrical instead of conical at its outer end, one of the discharge-criticos being the annular opening between the outside of n and the hole in the cover n2 of the body. The cap o, which with the outer end of the part n constitutes the other stream-nozzle, is carried by the stem 0, which screws into the lug formed on-the bottom of the body n', and this cap o is the only part that is adjustable. lVhen once the parts are adjusted for the waterpressure of any particular locality, they can remain so, the device then being always in condition for use.V V
Besides the uses here mentioned, my invention may be applied to all other uses where a spraying of iiuid is required.
I claim as my inventionl. In a spraying device,.the combination of a hollow body having an opening at one end, a hollow open-end valve located in the body, extending through the opening in its end, thus constituting an annular nozzle for the passage of a stream, and a cap located over the open end of the valve, thus constituting a nozzle adapted to discharge a stream across the path of the other stream.
