LIQUID-SOAP DISPENSER.
Specification of Letterslatent.
Patented May 4, 1915.
Application filed December 29, 1913. Serial No. 809,276.
To all 10h 0m it may concern Be it known that I, Ann BnnT D. HILL, a citizen of the United States, residing at EX- celsior Springs, in the county of Clay and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Liquid-Soap Dispensers; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to a liquid soap dispenser, and more particularly to a device of that character for use in connection with wash-stands; the principal object of the invention being to provide a device of this character whereby measured and limited quantities of liquid soap may be easily and quickly secured, but which is adapted for preventing waste on account of extravagant useor accidental draining of the container.
It is also an object of the invention to provide a device of this character that will obviate the necessity for a valve, and which is so simple in construction and obvious in operation that no instructions for its use are required.
In accomplishing these objects I have provided improved details of structure, the preferred form of which is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein Figure I is a perspective view of a liquid soap container, constructed in accordance with my invention. Fig. II is a side elevation of same; the greater portion being in vertical section. Fig. III is a cross-section showing the delivery tube in normal or inactive position.
Referring more in detail to the parts 1 designates a container which may be of any desired shape, size or material, and is preferably provided with ears 2 having apertures 3, whereby the container may be fastened to a wall, or the like, adjacent a washstand; the top of the container being preferably provided with a cover 4- which seats flush within a keeper flange 5, which is offset from the bodv of the container to form a supporting shelf, or shoulder, 6; one end of the cover being preferably shallower than the body thereof, so that it may be tipped \down to elevate the opposite end, so that the cover may be easily grasped when it is to be remove Mounted in the container, preferably at onecorner thereof, and in one of the side walls, is a stuffing box 8, which may consist of a collar 9 that is rigidly fixed in an aperture 10 in the side wall, and has a thread ed outer end for mounting a cap 11.
Projected through the stuliing boX is a tube 12, having an inner end 13 and outer delivery portion 15 bent at substantially a right angle to each other, so that when the inner or measuring portion 13 is lying horizontally within the container, the outer or delivery end will be substantially perpendicular; the outer end of the delivery portion being preferably curved to form a nozzle 16 which is preferably unrestricted and bent to turn downwardly when the delivery end of the tube is lowered by a person wishing a quantity of the liquid soap.
In using the device, presuming the container to be suitably mounted adjacent a wash-standand containing liquid soap, the
delivery tube is turned so that the measuring inner end is submerged in the liquid and the outer end extended vertically, as illustrated in Fig. I.
When a person using the wash-stand wishes a quantity of the soap, he draws the exposed portion of the tube downwardly, so that it extends downwardly from the journaled portion, the inner or measuring portion of the tube being rocked upwardly so that liquid contained therein flows out through the upper portion and from the nozzle into the hand of the user.
It is apparent that by having the inner end of sufficient length to extend above the top of the liquid when the nozzle is lowered, none of the liquid can flow thereinto when the measuring element is elevated, and the user only secures a quantity equal to the interior volume of the measuring element. If he should need a greater quantity, the tube may be rocked back to initial position, so that a succeeding charge may be taken into the measuring element to be delivered into the nozzle when the tube is rocked back to delivery position.
It is apparent that with this construction, there can be little if any waste of the liquid soap, for the'reason that the quantities de livered are measured, and that when the measuring element isin position to receive llquld from the contalner, the dellvery nozzle is elevated to prevent flow therefrom.
7 container, and a tube pivotally mounted in a wall of the container and comprising inner measuring and outer delivery portions, having open mouths at their free ends and arranged -at such an angle relative to each other that the open mouth of one of said portions is above the level of fluid in the container, when the depth of the fluid is less than the length of the measuring portion, irrespective of the position of the tube within a limited arc.
2. A liquid dispenser comprising a fluid container, and a tube pivotally mounted in a wall of the container and comprising inner measuring and outer delivery portions, having open mouths at their free ends and arranged at such an angle relative to each other that the open mouth of one of said portions is above the level of fluid in the container,'when the depth of the fluid is less than the length of the measuring portion, irrespective of the position of the tube within a limited arc; the inner measuring element being adapted for engaging the wvalls of the container to limit the arc of movement of the tube.
Copies of this patent may be obtained for 3. A liquid dispenser comprising a fluid container, and a tube having an intermediate portion journaled in a wall of the container, and having end portions of such length and arranged at such an angle relative to each other that the free end of one of the end portions is above the level of fluid in the container, when the depth of the fluid is less than the length of the inner end portion of the tube, irrespective of the position of the tube within a limited arc.
4. A liquid dispenser comprising a fluid container, and a tube having an intermediate portion journaled in a wall of the container, an inner end portion forming a measuring element and an outer end portion of greater length than the measuring element, and having a curved tip, forming a delivery portion; the'said measuring and delivering elements being bent at an angle relative to each other, whereby, when the depth of liquid in the container is less than the length of the measuring element, the free end of either the measuring or delivering element is above the level of the fluid, irrespective of the position of the tube within a limited are.
In testimony whereof I afiiX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
