INVENTOR CHARLES H. MOGBE, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.

WATER-CLOSET-OUTLET CONNECTION.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed June 17, 1908. Serial 3%. 438,980.

To all. whom it may concern:

Be it known that 1, CHARLES H. Moons, a; citizen of the United States, residing in New York citv, in the county of New lork and State of New York, have invented a new and useful improvement in \Vater-Closet-Outlet Connections, of which the following is a specification.

The object of this invention is to provide a connection between a water closet and the soil pipe that will be perfectly tight, and without any liability of the joint becoming broken and leaking if the closet should get jarred or moved a trifle after it has been set inposition. To accomplish this, I use a soft gasket, soaked with liquid grease that will not evaporate, in conjunction with a flange shaped to retain liquid, and a closet base shaped on the under surface so that a portion of it will come in contact with the gas ket when the closet is being set and force enough of the grease therefrom to partially fill the spaces between the depending rin on the closet base and the side ot the metalour 25 plate.

In the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification the device is shown in difi'erent forms, Figure 1 representing a central vertical section of the device having a thimble 7 forming the inner projection on the flange. Fi 2 represents a central vertical sectionpf the device in which the metal pipe extending through the floor forms the inner projection on the flan c. Fig. 3 shows a central vertical section 0 the floor plate. Fig. t represents a central vertical sect-ion of the device in which the floor plate has the outer flange. Fi orepresents a central-vertical section of t e device in which the inner and outer flanges are cast in one piece on the floor plate.

A represents a water closet showing the discharge end.

1 is the base of the closet; 2 is the spud end of the closet. that enters the soil pi e; 3 is a groove formed in the under side 0 the base around the spud end 2; 4 is a depending ring formed on the under side of the base; 5 is a groove formed in the under side of the base and is separated from the groove 3 by the depending ring l.

6 shows holes through the base l for bolts to extend through; 7 represents a thimble that extends no trom the soil 1pipe S into the groove 3 and 1S solderedto t e soil pipe at 9; 10 represents a metal floor plate having an it to outer flange projecting up into the groove 5 and 111- the form shown in Fig. 5 having a flange at the inner edge so that a receptacle D is formed in the floor plate between the two flanges, and this receptacle D contains the gasket and retains the liquid that is pressed from the said gasket when the closet is set.

11 represents the joint that metal floor plate to the soil pipe.

12 represents a soft gasket preferably made of felt that will absorb plenty of liquid grease so that when the closet is set there will be a suflicientquantity of the girase (that is represented by the numeral 13) pressed from end 0 the said depending ring 4, thereby forming a grease seal above the gasket and assuring a gas tight joint independent of the joint that is formed by the gasket, and it there is any unevenness on the under side of the receptacle D or whether it" is put in the receptacle dry and liquid grease ii led in the receptacle upon it.

'itny suitable liquid substance may be used in place of grease.

The advantages are: let. A perfect sewer gas tight joint is formed that will not become defective and leak. 2nd. The gasket is protected by the grease seal surrounding it and will not become hard and crack.

Having described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is, l

1. In a connection between water-closet bowls and soil-pipes, the combination with the bowl having two downwardly opening rooves in its base formed by an annular lan eon its outer edge, an annular flange or spuc on the edge of its discharge orifice extending into the soil-pipe and a ring intermediate .said flanges, an imperforate annular floor-plate adapted to be secured-on the upper end of the soil-pipe and having an upwardly opening groove into which the ring of the base extends, said groove'being formed by imperforate annular flanges on its inner and outer edges, means securing said base and floor ilate together and a liquid filled COlllDl'tSSl le washer located in Patented Nov. 2, 1909.
