Specification of Letters Patent.
WATER-FILTER.
Patented 0st. 22, 1907.
Application filed July 1,1907. Serial No. 381,693.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Ilmuns E. YOUNG, a citizen oi the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Water-Filters, of which the following is a specification.
This invention is a water filter designed to be applied to an ordinary faucet, and has for its object to provide a filter from which the sediment may be instantly washed without the removal of the filter from the faucet, and also which may be quickly taken apart when desired for cleaning or other purpose.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a side elevation of the filter applied toa faucet. Fig. 2 is a central vertical section. Fig. 3 is a cross section on the line 33 of Fig. 2.
Referring specifically to the drawings, 5 indicates the faucet to which the filter is applied. The filter rasing 6 consists of a thin metal shell having tapered ends one or both of which may be threaded as indicated at 7 to screw on the ucet, and, if both ends be threaded, to allow a pipe to be screwed thereon.
Within the casing is a perforated cylinder 8 having an annular flange S) at the top and a depending tube 10 in the bottom. This cylinder is supported at its upper end by means of an ilnperforate annular partition or ring 13, and at the bottom by a perforated partition 14, these partitions being fixed to the wall of the casing. The cylinder and tube [it in holes in the upper and lower partitions respectively, but may be readily removed therefrom by lilting out of the upper end of the casing when the same is detached. The top of the tube 10 forms a seat for the valve 11, which has a depending stem 15 projecting down through the tube and through the outlet from the casing. The space between the cylinder 8 and the wall of the casing is filled with filtering material as indicated at 16, such as powdered charcoal, fine sand, or any other substance suitable for the purpose. A gasket 17 is preferably placed between the end of the faucet and the flange 9 and serves to pack the joint as well as to hold the cylinder 8 down firmly in place.
When the valve 11 is in its normally closed position draw unfiltered water, or to wash the accumulation of inder 8 and out through the tube 10, carrying with it.
any matter accumulated on the surface of the cylinder.- To effectively clean the whole device and supply new filtering material when necessary, it is unscrewed from the tap and inverted, and the cylinder, valve and filtering material will drop out or may be dislodged.
Although the casing is shown screwed on the faucet, it is immaterial how it is attached, since it may be con nected in various other ways.
Various other modifications may be made within the scope of the invention.
I claim:
1. A filter comprising a casing having upper and lower annular partitions the lower of which is perforated, a cylinder supported by and extending between said partitions and having" a valve at the bottom, the cylinder being perforated between said partitions, and a body of filtering material extending around the cylinder, in the space between said partitions.
2. A faucet filter comprising a casing having upper and lower partitions with holes therein, a cylinder fitting in said holes and having a flange at the top resting on the upper partition, said cylinder and lower partition having fine perforations, a body of filtering material in the space around the cylinder, between said partitions, and a gasket on the said flange, against which the end of the faucet JAMES E. YOUNG.
