GOS'IE FRIEDMAN, OF JAMESTOWN, NEW YORK.
IBIDET.
To all W71 one it may concern:
Be it known that I, Gos'rn FRIEDMAN, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Jamestown, in the county of Chautauqua and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bidets, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part thereof.
This invention relates to improvements in bidets and more particularly to bidet waterclosets.
One object of the invention is to provide a bidet having an improved construction and arrangement of combined water inlet pipes and controlling valve whereby when the nozzle supporting member of the pipe is swung into and out of operative position the valve or water inlet opening will be simultaneously opened and closed.
Another object of the invention is to provide an improved construction and arrangement of water mixing chamber whereby hot and cold water from the supply pipes is thoroughly mixed and brought to the desired temperature before entering the valved inlet pipe of the bowl.
Another and important object of the invention is in the particular construction and arrangement of the parts whereby the same are rigidly connected and the various valves located in a position to be conveniently operated from the bowl.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, and the combination and arrangement of parts as will be more fully described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 is a plan view of a water closet bowl showing my improved bidet attachment applied thereto and illustrating in full and dotted lines the operative and inoperative positions of the nozzle supporting member of the water inlet pipe; Fig. 2 is an enlarged vertical sectional view of one side of the bowl showing the nozzle supporting member of the inlet pipe in operative position; Fig. 3 is an enlarged horizontal section of the valved joint or connection of the water inlet pipes, taken on the line 33 of Fig. 2; and Fig, 4i is an enlarged horizontal sectional view of the hot and cold water mixing chamber.
Referring more particularly to the draw- Specification of Letters Patent.

ings, 1 denotes the bowl of my improved bidet. The bowl 1 is shown in the present instance as a water closet bowl, I do not, however, wish to be understood as confining the use of the invention in connection with this form of bowl as it is obvious that the device may be provided with or applied to a bowl of its own or with any suitable receptacle. The bowl 1 as herein shown has connected thereto a cold water supply pipe 2 having a cut-off valve 3. I
My improved bidet attachment comprises a curved nozzle supporting member 4; havng on its inner end an upwardly projectmg threaded nipple 5 on which a nozzle (not shown) may be screwed. The member 4 is connected by an elbow 6 with the inner end of the inner transverse member 7 of the water inlet pipes, said member 7 projecting through and having a revoluble engagement with a passage 8 formed in one side of the bowl 1, as shown. The pipe member 7 is threaded for a short distance beyond the outer side of the bowl and has on said threaded portion a packing washer 9 and a nut 10 whereby the washer is clamped against the side of the bowl and forms a fluid tight connection between the bowl and pipe.
The member 7 of the inlet pipe projects some distance beyond the bowl and has a revoluble engagement with a combined valve casing and coupling member 11. In the ends of the casing 11 are stuffing boxes 12 where by fluid tight joints are provided between said ends of the casing and the pipe. 011 the pipe adjacent to the inner stufling box is a jam nut 13 whereby this box is held in its adjusted positions. On the outer end of the pipe member 7 is an operating handle in the form of a hand wheel 14 the hub of which engages the stufling box on this end of the valve casing and holds this box in its adjusted position. By thus mounting the pipe member 7 the same may be turned by the hand wheel 14 to swing the nozzle supporting member 4 into and out of operative position in the bowl 1, as clearly shown in full and dotted lines in Fig. 1 of the drawings.
In one side of the portion of the pipe 7 within the casing 11 is a water inlet opening 15 which, when the pipe 7 is turned to bring the nozzle supporting member into operative and inoperative positions, is adapted to be brought into and out of register with the ing chamber. valves-1n the hotiand cold water pipes the inner open end of the outer member 16 of the water inlet pipes. The inner end of the pipe member 15 is screwed into one side of Y the casing orroupling member 11 and is provided with a stuiiing box 17 whereby a fluid tight connection is provided between said pipe and the casing. By thus constructing and arrangin the inlet pipe members 7 and 16 and the valve casing or coupling 11 it will be seen that the inlet opening or valve 15 in the pipe member '7 will be opened simultaneously withthe swinging into posi tion of thenozzle supporting member 4 and that when said member is swung back to an inoperative position the inlet opening 15 will be turned out of engagement with the end of the pipe member 16 and the end of said pipe closed by the solid portion or side of the pipe 7 thus cutting oil the water supply.
The outer end of the pipe member 15 is connected with one end of a mixing chamber 18, with the opposite end of which is connected a hot water supply pipe 19 having therein a cut-off or controlling valve 20. "With one side of the mixing chamber is also connected a branch cold water pipe 21 lead' ing from the main cold water supply pipe of the bowl, said branch pipe having therein a cut-elf or controlling valve In the inner side of the mixing chamber 18 over the end of the branch cold water pipe 21 is a baffle or deflecting plate 23 against which the cold water strikes when discharged from the branch pipe 21 and by means of which the cold water is caused to become thoroughly mixed with the hot water in the mix- By means of the controlling proper amount or flow of either hot or cold water 1S permitted to enter the mixing chamberso thatvwhen mixed, the water discharged from the mixing chamber into the inlet pipes Will have the desired temperature. V
From the foregoing description taken in connection with the accompanying draw ings, the construction and operation of the invention will be readily understood with outrequiring a more extended explanation.
Various changes in the form, proportion and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages' of the invention as claimed. c
Having thus described my invention, what l'claim is: p j V The combination with a bowl of conven' tional design and a mixing chamber therefor, of a regulating valve supported by the bowl and in communication with the mixing chamber, a pipe section rotatably mounted in the side of the bowl and forming the wa t ter supply member of the valve, said pipe section being exteriorly screw threaded about its intermediate portion, a handle secured to the outer end of the pipe section for regulating the water therethrough, a coupling secured to the inner end of said pipe section and adapted for contact with the inner surface of the bowl, a curved noz- Zle fixed to the coupling and adapted to be turned to and from the bowl by said handle and a nut 'adjustably mounted upon the threaded portion of the pipe section between the valve and bowl for binding contact'with said bowl, whereby the; valve and nozzle forming a rigid part of the, pipe section thereof maybe regulated as required.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto 'set my hand in presencejof two subscribing witnesses' e ,7 i
