To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLES AJJAYNES, a"

citizen of the United States, residing at East Orange, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Insulating-Joints, of which the following is a full, clear, :andexact specification.

- ether as a firm and unitary structure.

My invention relates to meansfor insulating sections of pipe from each other, and the,

same has for its object more particularly to provide a simple, eificie-nt and reliable :joint which may be applied to gas pipes in order to insulate the fixtures attached thereto from said pipes.

' Further, said invention has for its object to provide a joint for the purposes specified, in which its several parts are secured tosaid invention, and Fig. 2 is 'a-oentral-vertical -.section of the same.

in said drawings 1 0 -de nates 'a sceket provided upon its innersuace with screw threads 11 and atits lower end said socket "is provided with a reduced option" 12 ifiorming a support having a centre opening 13 extending therethrough and connecting With-the interior-of said socket. Atthe-junctionof .the base of said socket with the upper end of the red-uced'portion 12 is provided a'laterally projecting flange -14-havmg1its underside partly beveled at 15;

l j

16 and 17 denote annular sections of insu- Y posed upon thered-uced end portion 12 of the.

lating material, such as mica, which are dissocket and clamped in position thereon adj acent to their inne ed es by means 01' a metal washer 18 which is he din position by the innerend of the reduced portion '12 which is turned over-or riveted against the lower suriace of said metal washer 18.

1 9 denotes asleeve provided at its upper ."Blld with anfiinwardly extending tapering fiange 2Q hay-in its upper and lower surfaces to produce astral-z p l inner edge which is adapted for securement to the socketl 1 intermediate the outer edges of the-insulating sections lfiand 17; the inmay fit the sleeve 19.

sulatingsectiofl 17 being of smaller diameter 0' than the section 16 in order that-the same 21 denotes a second socket member which i is provided upon its inner-surface with screw threads 22 and above said screw threads with a centrally disposed openin 23. l

24 denotes a laterally pro ecting flange arranged at the inner .or upper end 61'' the so ket member 21, which flange is substane tialjy co-extensive in diameter with the interior diameter of the sleeve 19.

25 denotes a disk of insulating -material provided with a centrally disposed opening 26 i1 line with the opening 23 in the socke 1 member 21 and the opening '13 in the reduce portion12 lot the socket 10, and above said insulating disk 25 is disposed .a second dis-k or la er of insulating material 27 which tog-e er serve to insulate the socket member 21 audits flange 24 from the socket member 10 and its reduced end portion 12. The

socket member 21 issecured firmly within the sleeve 19 by a'rim 27 at the lower end of said sleeve 19 which is bent inwardly and bears against the outer or lower surface of the ffiange 24, and thereby. holds the two sections firmly and permanently united.

It will be noted that in .aotualuse the joint may be applied, for example, at the socket portion 10 to a gas pipe, and at the socket portion 21 to the upper end of a combined gas-and electric-"fixture, and by the arrangement and construction of the parts shown A and described said fixture wilLbeabsolutely insulated from the pipes for conducting the gas to said fixture. Eurther, it is to be noted that when the joint is used in connection with an electric fixture merely the reduced end 12 of the socket- 10 may be made solid, 1

but when the joint is to be used in connection with acomblned and elect-r10 h'xture the said reduced end 12 must beprovided with an opening asshown, for the passage of the gas.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:

1. A joint of the character-described, comprising asocket member, insulating members separated at theirrouter edges andniveted 'togather at theircentmal' portions andto said =soeket'member,asleeveimgagingsggid socket member intermediate the separated edges of said sleeve, and insulating material disposed said insulating members, and a socket member secured to said sleeve and insulated from the socket member first-named, substantially as specified. j

2. A joint of the character described comprising a socket member, a support centrally arranged thereon, insulating means secured to said support with their outer edges se arated, a sleeve secured to said socket m'em er and engaging the insulating meansthereon intermediate the separated edges thereof, and

a socket member secured to said sleeve and insulated from the socket member firstnamed, substantially as specified 3. A joint of the character described comprising a socket member, a reducedend integral therewith and extending therefrom, a

plurality of insulating members secured to said reduced end, a sleeve secured atone end to said socket member intermediate the insulating members thereon, and a socket 'member secured to the other end of said sleeve, substantially as specified,

' 4. A joint of the character described, comprising a socket member, a reduced end integral therewith and extending therefrom, a plurality of insulating members secured on said reduced end, a sleeve secured at one end to said socket member intermediate the insulating members thereon, a socket member secured to the other end of said sleeve, and insulating means interposed between said socket member's, substantially as specified.

5. A joint of the character described c omprising a socket member, a tubular section extending therefrom, a plurality of insulat ing-sections surrounding said tubular section, a sleeve secured to said socket member intermediate the insulating sections thereon, a secondsocket member secured within said sleeve, and an insulating section interposed between said-socket members, substantially as specified.

' 6. A joint of theenaracter described comprising a socket member, a tubular section extending therefrom, insulating washers disposed upon said tubular section, a sleeve having a flange at one end adapted for securement to said socket member intermediate said insulating washers, a second socket 'member disposed Within the other end of said sleeve, and insulating material arranged in said sleeve intermediate said tubular section and the socket member lastnamcd, substantially as specified.
