mew-roman forming part of Letters Para No. 652,373, dated June 26, 1906. Application filed July 3,- 1899. I Serial No. 722,644. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
citizen of the United States, residing at Boston, in the county of Suifolk and State of Mas-- sachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Tumbler-WVashers, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being bad to the accom panylng drawings'j'forminga part of this.
specification, in explaining its nature.
The invention relates to a tumbler-washer having means herein described'for operating a valve adapted to open with the water-pressure and to close against it.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a view in elevation of my tumbler-washer. Fig. 2 is a view in Vertical central section through the same. Fig. '3 is a View in plan of a portion of the valve-operating mechanism and also of the washing device. Fig. 4 is a view in plan of a tumbler-support which is adapted to be mounted on the valve-levers, hereinafter described. Fig. 5 is a detail view, enlarged, principallyin vertical section, to show the operation of the tumbler-rest, valve-levers, and valvewhen the" Valve is opened. Fig. 6 is a view of a modified form of the valvestem and waterway,'to which reference will be made.
The washer comprises a bowlA, of any convenient shape, the opening a of which preferably is about flush with the upper surface 0t of a counter. It is of suitable depth and has near its bottom a rest B for the edge of the inverted tumbler. This rest comprises a metal ring I), from the edge of which extends inward and upward arms I), which are covered with cushions 12 of rubber tubing. This produces .a conical support which will receive tumblers having mouths varyingin size and which will also prevent injury thereto. The rest B is mounted upon the outer ends 0 of the two levers O C. These ends a are forked, as represented in Fig. 3, to furnish suitable support for the rest. The levers are attached at c to the nozzle D, which also serves as a valvestem, and each leveralso has a foot or fulcrum c which rests upon the upper surface of the threaded cap 0?.
The relation of the levers to the nozzle, cap, and rest when in horizontal position is represented in Fig. 2, and the valve is then closed.
. bler.
Upon the downward movement of the rest, Be 1t known that I, LEVI LEROY ROWE, a;
caused by pressinga tumblerdownward upon it, the levers are moved to the position represented in Fig. 5, and this causes them to lift the nozzle, which then acts as a valve-stem and opens the valve. The valve-stem or nozzle is guided in the cap 0 and also by the wall 6 of the chamber formed by the sleeve E. This sleeve has a threaded section 6' at its lower end, which screws into the threaded hole or recess f in the coupling F. The sleeveE also has a shoulder 6 between which and the shoulder f of the coupling a packing may be placed. The waterway f extends through the coupling to a hole in thelower end of said sleeve E. A valve-seat E surrounds this opening, and a compressible valve D at the lower end of the valve-stem closes upon this seat when the valve is shut.
This compressible packing is contained in a recess in the lower end i of the valve-stem, which is there made tight. A closin g-sprin g G bears against the enlargement d of the valve-stem and against the cap 0 and servesto move the valve-stem downward, press the valve to its seat against the water-pressure, hold it closed against the water-pressure, and also serves to lift the levers to their horizontal position. Upon the lifting of the valve-stem and valve the water flows about the valve and enters the waterway of the nozzle through the holes d therein just above the valve. Water then flows upward and escapes at the upper end of the nozzle in the form of a jet into the interior of the tumbler and also at the same time passes through the holes in the passage g in the pipes G, by which it is conducted to the perforated ring G near the top of the basin and the perforations of which throw the water in the form of jets upon the outer surface of the inverted tum- The water escapes from the basin through the passage II to the waste-pipe 7t.
I would say that while I have described the valverstem as hollow and have termedit a nozzle I would not be understood as limiting the invention to aconstruction employing a hollow valve-stem, as the valve-stem may be solid or may not contain a waterway, and one or more Waterways or passages-the equivalent of the one in the stem-may be arranged in the cap 0 which surrounds the stem, and which would permit the escape in an upward direction of water from the chamber about the valve-stem below the cap and to which cap the water flows upon the opening of the valve through or about the guiding extension upon the lower end of the valve. (See Fig. 6.) The size of the waterway in or about this extension will of course govern the extent of pressure in the chamber above it.
While I have shown the tumbler-supports as inclined, they may be straight or of any other desired shape so long as there is opportunity for the vertical movement of the end 7 of the valve-stem with respectto their inner ends.
I prefer that the inner ends of the tumblerrest be above the nozzle or stem when in its highest position in order that the rest may also be used for supporting a tumbler in its upright position and the valve be operated to wash the bottom; but I do not confine myself to this arrangement of the support with respect to the valve.
Having thus fully described my invention, Iclaim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States 1. In a tumbler-washer, a basin provided with a water-inlet, a vertically-movable combined nozzle and valve-stem, a valve connected with said stem and adapted to act in opposition to the water-pressure to close said Water-inlet, a spring adapted to close said valve and hold it closed, and means actuated by the tumbler for lifting the nozzle and valvestem, as and for the purposes set forth.
2. In a tumbler-Washer, a valve-stem,a valve attached thereto and a water-inlet adapted to be closed by said valve, a spring adapted to move said valve and valve-stem in the direction of said water-inlet, a cap surrounding said stem and suitably supported to act as a guide therefor, two or more levers pivoted to said stem and each provided with a foot resting on said cap whereby the downward movement of the extending arms of said levers will move said stem in one direction against the force of said spring tending to move it in the opposite direction, as and for the pur= poses set forth.
3. In a tumbler-washer, the combination of a nozzle, a valve, a valve-seat, said valve being located between said nozzle-outlet and said valve-seat, a spring for holding said valve on its seat and levers connected with said valve to open it against the stress of said spring upon the downward movement of the outward ends of said levers, as and for the purposes set forth.
4. The combination,in a tumbler-washer,of a vertically-movable nozzle, a valve, a spring for closing the valve against the water-pressure and for holding it closed, levers connected with the nozzle and means for sup porting one end of each of said levers, and a tumbler-rest mounted on the other ends of said levers, in substantially the manner and for the purposes set forth.
5. Ihe combination in atumbler-washer of a valve-stem, a valve mounted thereon, le vers for moving the valve in one direction, means whereby said levers are supported and fulcrumed, a spring for moving said valve in p the opposite direction, and a tumbler-rest mounted upon the levers in amanner to per mit the levers to be movable with respect thereto and having converging arms, as and for the purposes set forth.
6. The tumbler-rest herein described com prising the metal ring I), having the converging metal arms b provided with suitable cuslr ions, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
7. The combination of a Vertically-movable valve-nozzle with a tumbler-rest, consisting of a metal ringhaving converging metal arms, the inner ends of said arms being above said nozzle when said nozzle is in its highest position, as and for the purposes set forth.
