have invented cert in new and useful lms provernents 1n Nozzles, of which the following is a specification.

This invention is a nozzle for hose pipe or 10 street sprinklers, and is p: "'leularly adapted for use for's'treet lc ig or flushing, and has for its obj-1;. to provide a nozzle front which Will'fiow a wide sheet ofwater at an angle suitable to spread'waterover a large '15 area, and in a single plane in such a manner as to be particularly useful for flushing large surfaces such as streets or the 11* i The invention is illustrated partying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a side elevation. of the nozzle.

I Referring specifically to the drawin s, t3 indicates a Water supply pipe leading rroin the Water tank or reservoir.

projects from a shoulder 10 at the rear of the nozzle. nozzle are curved outwardly, or concave on the inside, and in connection with the end wells 7 form an enlar ed hollow or chamber 16 therein. The walls 9 are flared or spread laterally and curved toward each other to form along narrow mouth or slot between the lips 14.

the other, and the line of the lips M is at an angle to the perpendicular from said axis, so that the lateral extension of the discharge slot is greater on one sideof the axis than on the other so that the Water spread on one side more than on the other, as will he clearly apparent from F 1. Also, one of the side walls 9 is curved to a greater extent than the other so that they discharge slot is offset,
