NITED STATES FFICE..
CUSPIDOR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 568,070, dated September 22, 1896. Application filed January 21, 1896. Serial No. 576,320. (No model.)
T0 @ZZ whom, it 717mm/ concern/.1
Be it known that I, JOHN R.POWELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Plymouth, in the county Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Cuspidor for Bar-Rooms, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to improvements in cuspidors for bar-rooms and the like.
The object ofthe present invention is to provide for bar-rooms and the like a simple, inexpensive, and eflicient cuspidor designed to be placed at intervals in advance of a barl and capable of being flushed and cleaned by water from a bar-sink or other suitable source of supply to avoid the necessity of cleaning it by hand.
A further object of the invention is to prevent the cuspidor from becoming clogged by cigar-stumps and the like, and to enable the same and other accumulation to be readily removed when desired.
The invention consists in the construction and novel combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claims hereto appended.
In the drawings, Figure 1 isa perspective view of a bar provided with cuspidors constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view taken transversely of the bar. Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional view of the bar. Fig. eis an enlarged `detail sectional view of one of the cuspidors. Fig. 5 is a detail perspective view of the removable trough.
Like numerals of reference designate correspondingparts in all the figures of the drawings.
l designates a series of cuspidors arranged at intervals in advanceof a bar 2 and located beneath and extending in advance of the footrail of the bar in convenient position for use by persons standing in front ofthe latter. Each cuspidor is constructed of any suitable material, preferably of sheet metal, and may be of any desired size. It consists of a body having a trough-shaped bottom 4., curved upward at the front of the cuspidor, as shown, and arranged substantially vertical at t-he back, and ends 5, having their edges conforming to the configuration of the trough-shaped of Luzerne and State of` bottom. An inclined plate or top 6 isarranged within the body of the cuspidor, near the upper edges thereof, and extends downward and forward. It is rigidly mounted in position and is flushed by a perforated pipe 7, disposed longitudinally of the cuspidor at the top and back thereof and connected by asupply-pipe 8 with any suitable source of supply. The supply-pipe 8 may, as illustrated in the accompanying drawings, be connected with a sink of the bar, ora separate service-pipe may be employed.
The expectoration and other accumulation are carried downward on the surface of the inclined top or plate 6 to a removable trough 9, located in the space between the front or lower edge of the inclined top or plate 6 and the front of the cuspidor and forming a depressed continuation of the former. The trough 9, which is disposed longitudinally of the cuspidor and which extends the entire length thereof, is substantially U-shaped in crosssection and has closed ends 10, and it is provided at its bottom with perforations for the passage of liquid matter. By arranging the trough in the space between the inclined top or plate and the front of the cuspidor it completes the top of the cuspidor and absolutely prevents any solid matter from get-ting into the interior thereof, and such solid matter may be readily removed by detaching the trough from the front of the cuspidor without putting the hand inside of the latter. This trough has at its front edge a downwardly-extending lip 1l, which engages the upper edge of the body of the cuspidor, and the trough may be readily detached for the purpose of removing cigar-stumps, matches, and other similar accumulation.
The body of the cuspidor is provided at its bottom with supporting-feet 12, and the inclination of the front portion of the body enables a person to stand sufficiently close to the bar without coming in contact with the cuspidor.
Each cuspidor is connected by a drain-pipe 13 with a waste-pipe 14, arranged within the bar and designed to be suitably connected with a sewer or the like, and the pipes S and 13 extend through the front of the bar, suitable openings or perforations being provided for them.
IOO
It will be seen that the cuspidor is exceedingly simple and inexpensive in construction, that it is conveniently arranged in relation to a bar, that it is automatically flushed and cleaned of liquid accumulation, and that cigar-stumps, matches, and the like may be readily removed when desired.
Changes in the form, proportion, and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrifie ing any of the advantages of this invention, such as arranging the was te and service pipes in any suitable manner to adapt the cuspidors to the particular bar with which they are to be used.
What I claim isl. A cuspidor comprising a substantially trough-shaped body, an inclined top or plate extending forward from the rear edge of the body and terminating short of the front edge of the same, a perforated tube located at the top of the body adjacent to the rear edge of the top or plate, a perforated trough arranged in the space between the front edge of the top or plate and the front of the body and forming a depressed continuation of the former to complete the top of the cuspidor and exclude all solid matter from the interior of the same, and a drain or waste pipe connected with the cuspidor, substantially as and for the purpose described.
2. A cuspidor for bars, and the like, comprising a substantially V-shaped body, an inclined top or plate extending forward from the rear edge of the body and terminating short of the front of the same, a removable perforated trough located in the space between the front edge of the inclined top or plate and the front of the cuspidor and forming a depressed continuation of the former to complete the top of the cuspidor and exclude all solid matter from the interior thereof, said trough being detachably connected to the front of the body; and a iiushing-pipe located at the back of the inclined top or plate, substantially as described.
3. A cuspidor comprising a substantially trough shaped body having an inclined curved front portion and provided with feet, an inclined plate mounted within the body at the top thereof and terminating short of the front edge of the same, a removable perforated trough substantially U -shaped in crossseetion, located in the space between the front of the inclined plate and the front of the body to complete the top of the cuspidor and exclude all solid matter from the interior thereof and provided at its front` edge with a depending lip detachably engaging the front edge of the body, whereby it is removably suspended within the same between the front of the body and the inclined plate, and a perforated pipe arranged at the top of the inclined plate, substantially as and for the purpose described.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
JOHN R. POIVELI.
