SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 655,640, dated August '7, 1900. Application filed October 23, 1899 Serial No. 734,5 70. the model.)
To rrZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE H. TREADGOLD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Port Huron, in the county of St. Clairand State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fountain-Spittoons, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
The invention relates particularly to founiain-spittoons; and it consists in the novel construction of a device of this type and in the peculiar construction, arrangement, and combination of its various parts, as willbe more fully hereinafter described, and shown in the drawings, in which Figure 1 isa vertical'section of the spittoon. Fig. 2 is a section taken on line a m, Fig. 1; and Fig. 3 is a detached perspective view of the motor for rotating the bowl.
In the drawings thus briefly referred to the letter A designates the standard or support, comprising in its construction a discharge-casing 13, provided with an outlet-pipe B, an inner concentric casing B and a post 0, which has a threaded engagement at its lower end with the standard-base A. The base is apertured to receive the post and the latter is slotted, as at a, to permit of its being adjusted vertically. At its upper end the post is pointed, as at l), and mounted thereon for rotary movement is the bowl D, which is provided with a depending guide tube or sleeve E, adapted to engage over the post and hold the bowl in position for horizontal rotation. The bowl is preferably provided with a raised central portion F, substantially in the form of a dome, and beneath the bowl and secured to the casing B is an apertured diaphragm or partition G, forming in connection with the bowl-center the casing B and the depending sleeve an annular motor-chamber H.
The letter I designates the motor for rotating the bowl, which is arranged within the chamber described and is attached in any suitable m anner to the sleeve E. In construction the motor consists of a Water wheel comprising three wings a, l), and c and trough-shaped spirals 1, leading upwardly, one from each wing, to the bottom of the bowl and communicating with the interior of the latter through inlet-apertures 6, formed in the bowl-center.
Water is admitted to the motor-chamber through nozzles J J, Fig. 2, which extend through the discharge and concentric casings and terminate at their outer ends in a valvecontrolled water-supply pipe K. The nozzles are so arranged relatively to each motor and to the water-wheel that the water from the supply-pipe will be discharged alternately against the wings in the manner shown in the figure referred to, one nozzle being closed by a portion of the wheel while the other is discharging.
L designates a skirting extending from the exterior of the bowl, in proximity to the sides,
to and within the discharge-casing B, and f designates a series of apertures formed within the bowl below the skirting, the apertures forming discharge-openings for the water.
In operation water is admitted to the motor-chamberin the manner set forth, and after being discharged against the wheel passes up along the spirals through the inlet-apertures to the interior of the bowl, covering the bottom of the latter in the desired manner.
The water is discharged from the bowl through the opening f and is conducted to the discharge-casing B by means of the skirting, whence it is finallydischarged through the pipe B to the sewer.
The principal object of the construction set forth is to provide means whereby the bowl, besides being rotated, will have the bottom thereof covered with water, and in nearly all cases the construction described produces the desired results. In cases where it is more convenient to have a greater supply of water within the bowl I have provided a means, independent of the actuating mechanism of the bowl, for discharging water into the top of the latter in the manner set forth. The mechanism referred to comprises, essentially, a discharge-pipe O, suspended or supported centrally above the bowl by means of a bracket arm 0, a water-supply pipe 0 communicating with the pipe 0, and a plunger P, controlling the discharge of the water through the said discharge-pipe. More particularly,
the plunger comprises a tubular plunger-rod s, carrying at its lower end the plunger-head t and provided at itsupper end with a handle or knob it.
4; designates a port leading into the in terior of the plunger.
When it is desired to of the air from the ejector.
allow water to flow into the bowl from the pipe O that the ejector-tube A may be attached thereto and communicate therewith, so that the saliva maybe continuously discharged into the bowl through the dischargepipe. When the ejector is to be employed, the plunger may be used for the purpose of starting the ejector to work by first drawing up upon the plunger until the head tthereon is in its highest position and then force down the plunger, thereby causing the discharge A by-pass w is formed in the discharge-pipe 0, whereby the saliva is enabled to pass beyond the plunger head twhen the latter is in its lowest position.
The letter at designates a small tube arranged within the discharge-pipe, communicating with the by-pass, at the lower end of the latter, through which the saliva is discharged into the bowl.
I also preferablyemploy an air or vent pipe C, which is adapted to extend from the discharge-casing for the purpose of allowing the water to be readily discharged through the pipe B.
It is to be noticed from the peculiar construction of my improved fountain-spittoon, as above set forth, that the motor for rotating the bowl is arranged entirely beneath the latter, so that the bowl is unobstructed. This peculiar formation of cuspidor not only produces a device particularly fitted for the purpose for which it is to be used, but also gives a neat and finished appearance to the spittoon. It will also be obvious from the foregoing description of my invention that some means other than the skirting may be employed for the purpose of conducting the water from the bowl to the discharge-casing without departing in any manner from the spirit of my invention.
What I claim as my invention is- 1. In a fountain-spittoon, the combination of a support, a bowl mounted thereon for rotary movement, a rotary fluid-motor arranged below the bowl and connected with the latter, and means for operating the motor.
2. In a fountain-spittoon, the combination of a support, a bowl mounted thereon for rotary movement having water inlet and outlet openings formed therein, a rotary watermotor arranged entirely beneath the bowl and connected to the latter, and a water-supply device arranged in operative relation to the motor. I
3. In a fountain-spittoon, the combination of a support, a bowl mounted thereon for rotary movement having water inlet and outlet openings formed therein, a water-wheel arranged beneath the bowl and connected to the latter, and a nozzle arranged in operative relation to the wheel.
4. In a fountain-spittoon, the combination of a support, the bowl mounted thereon for rotary movement having water inlet and outlet openings formed therein, a guide-sleeve depending centrally from the bowl, a waterwheel secured to the said sleeve, and a nozzle or jet in operative relation to the wheel.
5. In a fountain-spittoon, the combination of a support, the bowl mounted thereon for rotary movement having water inlet and outlet openings formed. therein, a motor chamber arranged below the bowl provided with a water-discharge opening, a guide-sleeve depending from the bowl, a rotary fluid-motor carried by the sleeve and arranged within the chamber, and a water-supply device for the motor. I
6. In a fountain-spittoon, the combination of a support, a bowl mounted thereon for rotary movement, said bowl being provided with discharge-apertures and having a per forated raised central portion substantially dome-shaped in configuration a motor-chamber arranged beneath the apertured bowl center, a guide-sleeve fixed to the bowl and depending therefrom, a water-motor mounted upon the sleeve within the chamber, and a water-supply device for the motor.
'7. The combination of a support provided with a discharge-casin g, a bowl mounted upon the support above the casing for rotary movement, having formed therein a multiple of inlet-openings'and a series of discharge-openings, a water-motor beneath the bowl and secured to the latter, a water-supply device arranged in operative relation to the motor, and a skirting attached to the exterior of the bowl above the discharge-apertures in the latter and extending downwardly to and within the discharge-casing, substantially as described.
8. In a fountain-spittoon, the combination of a support provided with a water-discharge casing, a bowl mounted upon the support above the casing for rotary movement, said bowl being provided with water inlet and outlet ports, a water-motor below the bowl, a water-supply device arranged in operative relation to the motor, and an air-pipe carried by and communicating with the dischargecasing, substantially as described.
9. In a fountain-spittoon, the combination of a support, a bowl mounted thereon for rotary movement, a motor for rotating the bowl arranged beneath the latter, and means for actuating the motor.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE H. TREADGOLD.
