J {RK 4 Geo/7g@ 6.1250@ narran einem@ einer GEORGE C. ELLIOTT, OF SOUTH BELLINGHAIEI. W'ASHINGTON, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO C. J. FREYG-ANG, OE SOUTH BELLINGHAlfI, VASHINGTON.
FLOAT-VALVE.
Speccation of letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 3, v1911.
Application filed April 7. i910. Serial No. 5523.908.
South l'elliagham. in the county of Whatcom and Stai' e ot' lYaShington. have invented certain nevv and useful ,Improvements inv Float-Talves. ot which the following a xpeeilicatit in.
valve de igned for regulating the tion" of 1 Water from :i suitable vQource of supply to a tank or receiver of vvater and partieuiariy to a tnShing tank. and in the aceoinpanying drawings i have illustrated my invention as applied to a llwliiiig tank for vvater Closets.
he obvieet or' my invention is to produce a lioat valve which is simple in construction. f
composed of t'evv parts and onefvhieh not liikel'v to let out of order.
ll'ith these and other objects in vievv. my invention eonSistS in certain constructions.
.combinations and arrangement of parts. the
preferred forni of which will be first described in connection with the aeeoinpanyine' drawing? and then the invention pal tieniarly poil ed ont in the appended claim.
liefert saine part designated by the saine reielence nnnicrai Wherever it occurs: Figure l iS a pernpective vien' of the flushing' tank. partly broken axvay and Showing* my valve applied thereto, the tank being` of what is known as a high or elevated tank; Fig. '2 a :sectional vien' ot' what is knovvn aS a lotv tank showing the Same provided with my invention; Fig. 3 is a perspective vien' of my improvedvalve; and Figi". L is a detail vien' of the swinging plate vvith the paeking separated therefrom. i
3 tlesigeatcsh an ordinary Hur-.hing tank. G is the outlet pipe controlled by a valve i', operated by a pull chain S. through the intervention oi' the lever 9. These parts are of any ordinary' or desired construction and will not he further described.
deignatrs the head of the valve which preferably and as shown, is rectangular in cross-Section and upon one face is provided with the opening' ll. through which the vvater passes to the tank. Preferably and as shown, the openingr 1l surrounded by an outvvardlv projecting` flange or bead l2. The top of the valve body 10 is provided with the overhanging I tion overhangs the face of the valve body mat i@ provided with the opening ll. Beion' the head it?. the valve body preferably provided with a projectingl eoilar 14. from vvhich depends a screvv-tlneaded portion 15.
li'hen the valve mounted in the bottom of the finali tank. as ilintrated in Fi; "f
' the threaded portion l5 paeFed through My invention relates to an improved fioat the bottoni of the tank and the inlet pipe 1P is Secured to the portion 1.7 by int-ans of a union 1T.
In the forni of conitruetion shown in Fig. l. the portion is connef'ted to a Section of pipe 1S. which parses, throngh the bottoni of the tank and to which the inlet pipe 1G iS connected by the union 1T. it is to he understood. however. that the particular means for mountingy the valve illustrated forms no part of in v invention and may be modified as desired.
19 de=igaatcs a perforated lua' extending ont fiom the face of the valve body which provided ivith the opening' 1l. and Q0 is a plate provided With iliertorated lugs 21. through vvhieh and the lne; 1S) a pivot pin Q2 can be paSFed. to hinge the plate to the niej to the dravvinge wherein the portion 13, which pordown and hack into valve body in position to be swung np againat the opening Il. This plate is provided with the #ide wing-s 23). 2li. which en: brace the Sides ot' the valve body l() when the valve iS closed. an is beet Shown in Fig. 3. The plate iS also preferably provided with a depression 24 in its inner face into which the packing disk '.3 may be placed. The outer face of the plate is provided with a threaded nipple 2G. into which the od :".T ot' the tioat LS may be screvved to enable the float to operate the plate and open and close the valve. rl`he overhanggine' portion 12E of the valve body may be provided with the after-fion pipe 29. threaded into the overhanging portion 13 and extends npn'ardly therefrom. the upper portion of Said pipe enrving downwardly and extendinginto the valve 't'. After the valve has been opened and While Water is flowing through the valve into the tank a certain portion is deeeted by the portion and its side Wings 23. thus tiotving into the outlet pipe 6.
As readily understood from the foregoing description and inspection oi' the drawings. when '-.vater is drawn ont of the tank, the. float 2S causes the plate 90 to swing the position shown in Fig. 2, and when the tank is again filled up, the plate 20 is moved to the position shown in Fig. 3, and steps tbe low o waiter.
possible in the details of construction :md arrangement of parts Without departing from the spirit of my invention, :1nd I therefore do not intend to limit myself to the specie form shown and described.
flint l claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
In :1 float valve, the combination with a valve body adapted to be secured to a supply pipe, Seid Valve body being provided i with an opening in one'fziee thereof, un owil l l l l l l hanging portion projecting over Suid i'ace. :i
f plate hingedly mounted 011 the vulve bod)Y I realize that considerable variation isi belov.` .said overlianging portion, enid plate being provided with side Wings adapted to embrace the valve body when the vulve i\: closed.
In testimonv whereof I nilix my signature GEORGE C. LLlOT'l.
