UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HENRY M. LUMMIS AND FREDERICK W. HERGERT, OF ELIZABETH, NEW
' JERSEY.
' FA'ucET ATTACHMENT;
, Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented. March 13, 1906.
To all whom it may concern.-
Beit known that we, HENRY M. LUMMIs and FREDERICK W. HERGERT, citizens of the United States of America, residing at the city of Elizabeth, county of Union, and State of New Jersey, have invented a new and 'useful a 'sgecification,
ur invention relates to the protection'of drinking glasses from breaka e by contact with faucets; and the obj ect 0 our invention is to produce a bumper which can be slipped over the'faucet and which, consisting of elastic rubber, will maintain its position on said faucet by its own contraction. This bumper will have an arm or projection extendin backward under the bearing of the spi 0t 0 said faucet, so that when a drinkin -g ass is applied in haste to the faucet the g ass may strike against this rubber bumper, but cannot come into contact with the metal of which the faucet is composed and be broken by such contact or otherwise damaged thereb We attain this object by the creation 0 the appliance illustrated in the accompanying draw- Fi 2 is a ig. 4 is a ongitudinal vertical, section. Fig. 5 is an illustration of the method of application.
The appliance is to be one piece of elastic rubber and is slipped up over. the mouth of igure 1 is a side elevation.
. as will leave the extreme ed e of the faucet- \the bearing of said faucet,'.being held well against said bearing by its own elastic reco mouth some slight distance elow the lowerglass. In addition-the oblong flat portion of 4 the appliance will project backward under so that the under part of the rim of the drinking-glass cannot come into contact with the said bearing of the faucet.
We. are aware that appliances have been made for the protection of articles from breakage by contact with faucets, and so do not claim such a contrivance, broadly, as our invention; but
What we claim as our invention, and desire to protect by Letters Patent, is
1. In a faucet attachment, the combination of a complete circle or band of elastic rubber encircling the mouth of the faucet and havin at its lower edge an umbrella-shaped partropping downward and outward from said faucet so that no part of the rubber touches the edge of the faucet where the liquid issues, a fiat arm or projection commencing at the top of said band and extending backward therefrom a short distance under the bearing or horizontal part of the faucet, held well up against the same by its own elastic recoil, its normal position being in a horizontal plane with the top of the band, all in one piece, substantially as shown.
2. In a faucet attachment, the combination of a band of elastic rubber encircling the part of the faucet near the mouth thereof, so elastic as to fit. any of the larger faucets in general use, supporting an umbrella-shaped collar somewhat larger at its lowest point (inside measurement) than the mouth of the faucet, protecting the article from contact with said mouth of the faucet, yet not coming into contact with the said mouth of the faucet or the liquor which flows therethrough, a fiat arm or projection extending from the top of the band horizontally or nearly or nor-' mally so along under the shank or level part of the faucet and bein held up against same by its own elastic recoi all said several parts being made into one iece, detachable-from said faucet and reattac able thereto by the simple motion of the hand, being held thereupon by its elastic contraction all substantially as set forth.

In testimony whereof we have signed our names to this specification in the presence of two subscribin witnesses.
