CONSTRUCTION OF LAVATORIES AND LIKE FIXTURES FOR DOMESTIC USE.
Patented J 8.11.29, 1907.
Application filed March 10, 1906. Serial No. 305,397.
To aZZ whbmitmay concern.-
Be it known that we, ALEXANDER HAMIL- TON CLINE, J r., and JAMES HERRON DANVER, residing at 2714 East Twenty-seventh street, Kansas City, Missouri, and Beaver, Beaver county, Pennsylvania, respectively, citizens of the United States, have invented or discovered a certain new and useful Improvement in the Construction of Lavatories and Like Fixtures for Domestic Use, of which improvement the following is a specification.
Our invention relates to improvements in the construction ,of lavatories and like fixtures for domestic use; and the object of our improvement is a form of construction which is more sanitary and serviceable than others which are in use to-day.
The accompanying drawing is a view in side elevation, but with certain parts broken away and shown in section, of a lavatory which is constructed according to our present invention. r
This invention is particularly applicable to lavatories for domestic use, such as are co1nmonl formed of porcelain or of enameled meta It will, however, be understood that our invention is not limited in its scope by the material of which the lavatory is consons objectionable.
structed.
The lavatory which is shown in the drawing consists, essentially, of a base portion or pedestal 1 and a bowl ortion 2. As such lavat'ories are ordinari y constructed the bowl portion rests upon the top of the columnar base portion or pedestal-that is, at the point indicated by the letter Aand when so constructed the joint is for various rea- It is a weak point in the structure. It is apt to become loose. It is a point where corrosion is apt to occur and where dirt will lodge, giving an unsightly ap-' Hearance and producing an unsanitary conition. Our improvement consistsin prolonging or extending the upper end of the base or pedestal portion 1 in a shell or apron portion 3, so shaped as to surround and support the bowl portion 2. As ordinarily constructed such a metal or porcelain lavatory is provided with a slab portion 4, formed integral with the bowl portion and, extending laterally from the edge of the bowl, and ordinarily this slab portion is finished at the edge by an integrally-formed depending flange 5.
We preferably secure the parts of our improved lavatory construction together by so shaping them that the under surface of the slab extension of the bowl shall rest upon'the up er edge of the apron extension 3 of the pe estal, and We preferably secure the parts at this point of'contact. This may be done by forming corresponding lugs upon the several portions of the structure and passing pins or bolts 6 through the adjacent lugs.
While our invention in its broader terms is not limited to the material of which the fixture is formed, there is a peculiar. advantage attributable to our invention when embodied in a fixture formed of enameled metal. Such articles are now ordinarily constructed of castiron with an enameled surface, and it will be observed that in following the construction described above it is necessary to coat with enamel one side only of the metal castings,
whereas in case the bowl portion as ordinarily' constructed r'ests directly upon the summit of a columnar pedestal portion it is necessary to coat with enamel both the inner and the 'outer surfaces of the bowl portionl The advantage of our improved construction in this res ect is obvious.
It will e understood that our improvement is applicable to lavatories and to structures of like general character, such as sinks and water-closets.
We claim as our 1nvent1on In a lavatoryor like fixture the combination of a bowl portion provided with a laterally-extending slab and pvith lugs formed upon the under surface of such extended slab, and a pedestal having an integrallyformed upward-extending'shell surrounding said bowl portion and provided at the upper edge of such upward-extending shell with lugs engaging the lugs formed upon the edge of the bowl ortion as aforesaid,substantially as described? In testimony whereof we have hereunto set our hands.
ALEXANDER. HAMILTON CLINE, JR. JAMES HERRQN DANVER.
