Application filed october 19,1899. serai No. 734.052 N model-B To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWIN S. BARNES', a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, (West New Brighton,) county of Richmond, State of New York, have invented cerv tain new and useful Improvements in Closet- Seats, of which the following is a specifica-4 tion.
Prior' to my invention closet-seats have mainly been constructed of wood suitably configured and hinged to a hopper or other receptacle. In the employment of wood and the like considerable disadvantage has been encountered owing to the absorptive qualities of the material and constant breaking and warping, requiring frequent cleansing and repair. The same can be said of the seat cover or lid. The entire difficulty has been encountered in the employment of wooden and other like seats in that the hopper at its upper rim or periphery has been rounded and the wood has been placed upon this rounded portion, the fit of the two being generally very poor,'allowing of the escape of obnoxious gases and generally resulting in uncleanliness. With inyinvention these difficulties are considerably, if not entirely, eliminated.
I employ for the lid one made of hard rubber, with a soft-rubber cushion set in its iiange. For the seat I employ one suitably coniigured, constructed as to its upper vor operative surface, of hard rubber hav-ing an' annular interior chamber subdivided by lateral strengthening webs or diaphragms, and to give strength and lightness and a Vlower face or abutment (as to one feature of my invention) preferably fiat and horizontally disposed and made of soft rubber, either vulcanized or cemented, butin either case rmly secured to the upper section of the seat, the soft-rubber base resting upon the flat horizontal top of the hopper, which is so configured for the purpose of making aseat for the soft-rubber base.
My invention therefore consists in the construction and combination of parts hereinafter described, and further pointed out in the claims.
In the drawings forming part of this specication, Figure l is a perspective view of a conventional hopper with my various iniprovements appliedthereto. Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation of the upper portion of the hopper, the seat, and lid substantially on the line 2 2, Fig. 1, looking in the direction of the arrow. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a portion of the seat inverted, partly in crosssection.
Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
the crown forming an interior channel or an nulus 6, across which extend lateral webs 7, perpendicularly disposed land formed integrally with thecrown-piece 5. These webs give strength and rigidity to the crown-piece to reduce its weight and cost, and tend to keep the same cool, and add to the same many advantageous features.
At 8 is a soft-rubber base, which is a iiat band o'f soft rubber either vulcanized, cemented, or otherwise suitably secured to the base of thecrown-piece 5, as shown clearlyin Figs. 2 and 3, andthe top of the hopper is formed by the rim 2, an inward extension 3 being suitably widened over the usual rim found in hoppers of this class in order to give a firm bearing transversely to the hopper-seat and properly seat the latter on top of the hopper, thereby providing a more effective seal between the top of the hopper andthe seat than has hitherto been accomplished in constructions of this class.
At 9 is the lid, preferably made of hard rubber, with a downwardly-extendingperiphery 10, ending in a transverse enlargement 11, in which is seated a soft-rubber gasket 12, which bears directly on top of the crown-piece 5. The hopper-piece 4: may be suitably hinged to the top of the hopper, as at 13, and the lid IOO 9 is likewise hinged to the extension formed integrally with the hopper-seat 4, through the hinge 14, thereby completely sealin g the space between the top of the hopper and the hopper-seat.
Having described my invention, I claim- 1. As an article of manufacture, an an nular and hollow closet-seat, having an upper section of hard rubber, and an integrally-united base of soft rubber, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
2. An article of the class described, comprising an annular and hollow upper section of hard rubber, interiorly channeled, transverse webs in the channel formed integrally with the upper section, and an integral base of soft rubber, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
3. In an article of the class described, the combination with the hopper having a plane Vseat formed at its upper rim, with the hopperseat comprising an upper annular and channeled section of self-su pportin g material, and
a plane horizontal base of soft rubberseated upon the plane seat of the hopper-rim, substantially as described.
4. The combination in an article ofthe class described, of the hopper-rim comprising the rim 2, an inward extension 3, the hopper-seat comprising the hard-rubber crown-piece 5, transverse webs 7 and soft-rubber base 8 seated on the hopper-rim, substantially as S. I-l. MOYLE, 1-I. F. DURBUR.
