JOHN HOWARD BROMLEY, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA DEVICE FOR CONTAINING AND DISPENSING LIQUIDS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented J an. 15, 1907.
Application filed April 23, 1906. Serial No. 313,103.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JOHN HOWARD BROM- LEY, residing at No. 216 South Forty-second street, in the city of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Devices for Containing and Dispensing Liquids, whereof the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
The primary purpose of my invention is to provide means for properly dispensing the substance known as liquid soap, which is largely used in hotels, cars, and other public places, and the organization of the device is peculiarly adapted for dealing with a liquid of that character.
In said drawings, Figure I represents a vertical central section through a device embodying my invention. Fig. 11 is a central section on the line 11 II of Fig. I and on a plane at right angles to that of said figure.
Referring to the drawings, 1 represents a cylindrical receptacle, preferably of metal, which is closed at its upper end by means of a threaded cover 2 and which may conveniently be provided with a secondary cap or stopper 3, screwed in the center of the cover 2, but adapted to be independently removed for the purpose of refilling the receptacle, as
it is not always desirable to unscrew the larger cover. Said stopper 3 comprises, as shown, a flattened head, beneath which a transverse assage 4 extends entirely through the stem 0 the head and communicates with a vertical passage 5, leading into the interior of the receptacle. This arrangement affords, access of air to the interior of the receptacle so as to permit the discharge of the contents without difficulty, and at the same time the opening 4 is concealed from view and shielded against accidental stoppage by the overhanging periphery of the top portion of the plug 3.
An externally-threaded nozzle 6 depends from the center of the bottom of the receptacle 1 and is removably connected with a valve-casing 7 of approximately spherical form, containing a tapered rotatable stopcock 8, which has preferably two circular cavities or pockets 9 9 diametrically opposite to one another and substantially coextensive at their periphery with the circumference of the passage 10. The diameter of the stopcock 8 is such with relation to the dimensions of the pockets 9 9 as that when either one of them is turned from under it the intervening continuous portion of the periphery of the stop-cock will completely close the aperture of the passage 10, so that at no time can there be a continuous outflow, but merely a succession of discharges each equivalent in volume to the cubic contents of one of the pockets. As the periphery of the pockets is not less than the diameter of the passage 10, the danger of air-binding is avoided.
The lower portion of the valve-casing 7 is provided with a vertical outlet 11 into which either of the pockets will discharge when turned into its lowest position. The stopcock is provided with. a handle 12 or other convenient means of control.
In order to insure the rapid and complete discharge of the material measured. and presented to the outlet 1 1, I provide an air-channel 13, which leads downward thereto from an exterior point-as, for instance, 14, which is at a level higher than the upper part of the outlet 11. This channel may be conveniently masked by passing through the bracket 1'5, which serves to support the structure as a Whole, the arrangement shown being also one which is adapted to prevent accidental stoppage of the air-passage. I prefer to provide the stop-cock S with a stop 16, which permits its rotation through substantially a semicircle in either direction, but prevents continuous rotation.
By the above-described apparatus the liquid contents of the receptacle may be freely discharged in measured quantities, a feature which is peculiarly desirable in devices of this character, which are apt to be more or less hurriedly used in public locations.
Having thus described my invention, I claim" The combination of a substantially closed receptacle, provided with a relatively small air-opening at its upper portion and having an outlet at its lower portion; a subjacent valve-casing having a passage which com municates with said outlet; a rotatable stopcock arranged in said valve-casing and having a pocket which is substantially coextensive at its periphery with the internal diameter of said passage; means for rotating said sto -cook; and a discharge-nozzle havin a-n In testimony whereof I have hereunto orifice located at the bottom of the Va veslgned my name, at Philadelphia, Pennsyloasing and within the range of rotatlon of the Vania, this 20th day of April, 1906.
