Application filed August 19, 1907. Serial No. 389,092.

To all whom it. may concern:

Be it known that I, LoUrs KEBBLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, county of Cook, State of Illinois, have invented a certain new and useful Im rovement in Portable Receptacles for Flui s, and

declare the followin to be a full, clear, and

' the passage from the receptacle to the nozzle.

In order to prevent a combustible 'fluid within the receptacle from becoming ignited throu h the discharge outlet a perforated guar is provided for the outlet, said guard eing shown as attached to the valve casmg. able to remove to have ready access to the valve seat.

The object of the resent invention is to provide means whereii the valve in a device of the character speci ed may be readily removed and replaced, and whereby the valve seat may be readily. inspected or ground.

A further object of my invention is to provlde a novel form of operating means for a valve of the character specified whereby.

cheagness of manufacture and ease of as semb y are promoted.

A further object of my invention is to provide a sim le cheap, durable guard for use in receptac es. of the character specified.

The various features of novelty which characterize my invention will be omted out with particularity in the appendbd claims; but for a full understanding of my invention and of its various objects and ad\'a| tages reference is to be had to the followin' detailed description taken in connection witli the accompanying drawing, wherein:

Figure 1 shows in cross-section a portion of a rece tacle adapted to contain fluids tother with the devices for controlling the ischarge outlet; andFigs. 2 and 3 are reis screwed in place.

It sometimes happens that it is desirthe valve so as to clean it or repair it and so also it is at times desirable ,to support one end of a spectively. a side elevation and plan view of the s ider to which the perforated guard is attae ed.

Referring to the drawing, A indicates a receptacle of any usual type having a discharge outlet a in the top wall thereof.

B is a tubular coupling and valve casing combined which is secured into the opening Where the receptacle is made of sheet metal, as. indicated, I prefer to secure a collar A to the top of the receptacle concentric with and surrounding the opening a. This collar may have sufficient thickness so as to provide a rigid and secure support for the member B when the latter is screw-threaded into it as illustrated. The member B is preferably provided with an annular flange b which is adapted to rest upon the top of the collar A. The flange is laced at such a distance from the lowe'r 'enc of the coupling that the interior of the receptacle is left unobstructed by the coupling when the latter All of the liquid within the receptacle may therefore pass freely throu h the outlet. The coupling is also provi ed with an internal annular flange b which provides an inwardly facing valve seat bf.

C is a valve which engages the seat 7) and normally maintains theoutlet closed.

D is a guard for the outlet and, instead of soldering or otherwise permanently securing this guard to the coupling as in my prior a plication, I prefer to make use of a spider which extends into the upper end of the guard at considerable distance and thereby braces it securely and forms an extended surface to which the guard may be secured. One end of the spider projects a short distance beyond the end of the guard and is provided with screw-threads e" which mesh with corresponding screw-threads in the interior of the lower end of the coupling. The

spider is preferably provided with a crossarm 0' extending diametrically across the same near the lower end thereof and provided with an opening 6". The arm c serves spring 0, the other end of-which bears against the under side of the valve. The opening e'-' in the cross-arm serves to receive and gulde a stem 0' secured to the valve and arranged within the spring 0.

It will be seen 'that the coupling, valve, spider, and the guard carried by the spider may be removed from the receptacle bv has been done the spider may be unscrewed from the coupling without disturbing the connection between the spider and the guard, so that the valve is free to be removed and the valve seat may led ground or faced; or, if actual truing of the parts is not required, they may be thoroughly cleaned without dif- F is a nozzle which, as in my prior appli cation, may conveniently be screwed upon the upper end of the coupling. I

G is a rod or stem suitably guided by an arm 7' within the nozzle and adapted to engage with an auxiliary valve stem c projecting upwardly from the valve so that the valve may be unseated against the tension of its spring upon a depression of the member G. G is a second rod or stem arranged parallel with the member G and guided within openings in a housing f arranged at one side of the nozzle. The u )per end 9 of the member G is reduced.- an between the reduced portion and the remainder of the rod or stem are formed screw-threads g. The upper end of the member G is also provided with screw-threads g G is a cross-arm provided with openings in its ends adapted to receive the screw threads y and y so as to rigidly tie the members G and p G together. The upper end of the reduced portion g of the member G is also provided with screw-threads as at g whereby a push button G is secured in place. The lower end of the member G is preferably provided with a notch g to which a screw driver or the like may be applied to assemble the valve operating parts together.

One of the features of the present inven-v tion resides in the novel form of guard employed. This guard consists preferably of .two gauze cylinders d and 03 arranged one within the other and se ara-ted from each other by means of a coi d of wire or the like. This coil may take any desired form and be constructed of any suitable material, but I have found that satisfactory results are produced by making the coil in the form of a helix. composed of s ring metal.

Having now fully escrlbed my invention, what I c aim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:

1. In combination, a coupling, a nozzle de-' tachabl secured to one end of the coupling,

means or detachably securing the other end of the coupling to a support, a member detachably secured to the latter end of said coupling, a perforated guard carried b said member, and avalve-device associate with said coupling. i
