Original No. 252,074, dated :Tannat-y 1.0, 1882.

To ill whom it may concern: Be it'- known that I, PETER Frenos/.As

l BURKE, of Brooklyn, county ot Kings, and..

State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stationary Washstands and Fixtures; and I-do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact descrption and specification ot" the sa|nerefer ence being had to the accompanying drawings, making part thereof.

Myg. invention relates to stationary wash stands, basins, and faucets' such as are supplied with water fromservice-pipes, and from which the wastewater is discharged through an opening inthe bottoml of' the basin; and it consists in certain combinationsfof parts specifically set forth in tbc 'claims at the cud of this schedule'.

In order that persons skilledin the art-may understand, make, and use my invention, I will proce'ed to describe it, referring to the drawings, in whch Figure 1 is a top or plan view. Fig-:2 is n.

l vertical central'section of Fig. 1 on line Y Y.

`attached. The lugs ff fasten Fig. 3 is a vertical central section of my snpply-valve. Fig. 4 is a cross-section of Fig. 3 through ontlctuozzle Q. Fig. 5is a crosssection through inlet-nozzle R. Fig. 6 is a. cross-section through nozzle S. Fig. 7 isacrosssection through inlet-nozzles R and S when placed on the same plane, the valve-openings- Ain the. spnd 0 being arrangedacoordingly.

Fig. 8 represents the index-plate.

A is the supporting-slab, to which both the basin B and the valveand its connections are the basin B to the supporting-slab A.

I I are the 'side`supports, which hold up the slab A.- h Y F is the inlet-pi pe, which conducts water from the valve .E to the inclined opening inbasin B. This downward inclinedirects the y the basin, as

`cap packing is placed.

1 d is a cup placed beneath the vnlvc- E and i Application for reissue tiled June 9, l.

its connections to catch any` leakage from them and convey it through pipe cto the pipe at.

E is the supply-"valve, fastened beneath slab A, with its' stem or key passing np through' thc slab A, and fit-ted with a handle, C, totnrn the valve-sped by.

Beneath the handlevG, and surrounding the stem or key ou the top of slab A, in a recess, is an index-plate, D, to indicate in which direc-A 6o tion to turn the valve-Spud to supply the basin with the kind of water desired `and to shut it oil' entirely. g

YQ is 'the outlet-nozzle, to which pipe F is attached.

' R and S are inlet-nozzles connected to twopipes, n, and b, one for hot and the other for the supplycoidwater. In one form of valve-.they are placed at different planes and in the otherl form they are placed on the same plane. By 7o each of theseconstructions either hot, cold water, or a mixture of both, may be supplied to may. be needed, or 'the valve closed.

Byqilacing the valve E belowV the slab I re- 75A move-all obstructions from the top of the slab and basin, and no leakage from the valve and its` connections comes from the slab. This is lan important arrangement.

. The stem or key ofthe v'alve-spnd is screwed .8o into the top of 'the Spud, as shown, which is closed at its top, hollow in its body, and open at its bottoni to admit of its being used as an outlet-opening when desirable, inwhich case the supply-pipe F is .attached to the bar- 85 rel of the -valve at its bottom, and the'screvw plngP is removed for the purpose and placed Y in outlet Q, thus' closing Q.

The spud Oisthreaded at itstop, and rises slightly up and down when turned in a corrego sponding, thread cut in the npperpart of the barrelN. The screw-cap M inclo'ses the top Y of the spu'd and barrel, between which and the The valve-handle is placedi'n'a pocket or re-y cess below the surface of the slab to still fur ther relieve the slab from obstructions, inyob- `iect being to provide a stationary waslrsta'nd basin and supports clear ot" all projections from its exterior surfaces.

There may be two valves usedinstead of one, and two inlet-openings into the basin beneath roo the slab, and they may be placed in a horizontal or any other position, and the handles may be placed in the vertical supports in pockets or otherwise. 1 do not confine myself to the precise arran gernent sl1own,as many variations may be made.

' The operation of my device is as follows:

' When either hot, cold, or warm water is dedirects it toward thc bottom.

sired in the basin the valve is turned until the indexplate indicates that it is'in the correct position to supply it through' pipe F. In pass ing into the basin the incline of the opening lf' theplug is in opening G, the basin will fill until the wa.- ter reaches the level of the opening H, when it will overflow through E and'through the pipe which connects it with pipe .'v, and the ba-l sln will fill no further. 'By removingthe plug from G the water will pass cnt through G into the pipe m and away to the sewer. To shut t-he water od the valve is turned till the index .plate shows That the valve is sbnt. Slionld the valve or pi pe-joints leak, the cup d conveys it through pipe c to-pipe 3 2.

Having now fully described 'my invention and the manner in which I have embodied it, what I claim as my invention, and desire to 1. A stationary wash-stand composed of a supporting-slab, a basin provided with outlet and overflow openings, and an inlet-opening in the wall of the basin, and a valve constructedv as described, to allow the flow of hot or of cold water,or of hot and cold water mixed, said valve being' supported by the slab and below the same, and provided with a stein or key proobstructions of any kind. y

2. A stationary wash-basin constructed, as

described, with outlet and overliow openings,`

and with an inletopening in its wall, inclined as shown, to prevent the watecfmm spnrtiug across the basin, all arranged as shown, so as 4 5 to leave the innerrsnrfaceof the lbasin free from projections' or obstructions.

3. A valve for awash-basin, constructed of va hollow spud and -in'clsing barrel, two inletopenings in the barrel for hot and cold water,

corresponding inlet opening or openin gs in the spnd, and'discharge-openings Iin the side and bottom of the spnd and barrel, all as setforth, so that independentstreams-ot' hot and cold water may be admitted into the hollow chamberof the spud, and maybe dischargedseparately or mixed through eitheror both discharge-openings. Y

4. The combination, substantially ashereinbel'orc set vforth, of the discharge-pipe from v*6o the basin with the drip-basin and pipe, connected with said discharge-pipe beneath the basin,-all constructed and operating substantially in the manner described.

5.' The combination, substantially as hereinbefore set forth, in, a stationary wash-stand,of

the supports, the basi-n provided with an inletopening beneath thc supporting-slab, and the overliow and discharge openings directly and openly connected with each other' outside the basin, with a valve for supplying waterot the same'orof differing temperature tothe basin,

all constructed and arrangcddand operating y substantially inthe manner described.

6. The combination, substantially as herein before set forth, in a stationary wash-stantLof the basin and its supports, the valve', and its connections, wilrthe handle of the valve placed inarecess of thc slab, all constructed and operating substantially in themanner de-' scribed. A

Signed at New York, in the county of` New York and State of New York, this dday of June, A. D. 1882.`
