Description
UNITED lSTATES PATENT OEEIcE.
ELLWOOD DAVIS AND JACOB M. STILES, OF OAMDEN, NEW JERSEY.
IMPROVEMENT IN LOCKING STOP-COCKS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 112,693, dated March 14, 1871.
To all whom t't may concern:
Be it known that we, ELLWooD DAvIs and J AcoB M. STILEs, of Camden, in the county of Camden and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Locking Stop-Cocks; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification, in which is represented a perspective view of an ordinary faucet with our lock attached.
lThe nature of our invention consists in the combination of a faucet with a padlock, so arranged that the faucet may be locked, and thus the contents of the barrel or cask rendered secure.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use our invention, we will now describe its construction and operation.
A represents an ordinary faucet, having its plug provided with a rectangular hole or aperture. The lower portion of said aperture should extend a little below the upper part of shoulder d, which is provided with a recess upon both sides, opposite each other, and at the same time directly opposite to the aperture in the plug when the faucet is shut off.
e represents a metal key, made to t easily `in the aperture and recesses just referred to. One end of this key has a hole in it sufficiently large for the hasp of the lock to pass through, as fully shown in the drawing, while the opposite end is either bent down or is provided with a head, or otherwise so constructed as to prevent the key from being drawn out, except when the lock is removed.
It will thus be observed that the faucet may be securely locked when desired, the great advantage of which may be readily appreciated by those who have suffered loss in consequence of the easy access had to the contents of a barrel or cask.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A faucet-lock securing one end of a sliding key passing transversely through the plug of the faucet, and held securely at its point of entrance, all substantially as set forth.
In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own we affix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
ELLWOOD DAVIS. JACOB vM. STILES.
