Application led September 23, 1915. Serial No. 52,274
To all 'whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, MARY A. LOYER, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city and county of Denver, State of Colorado, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Means for Charging Water with Radio-Activity, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which the invention appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming a part hereof.
rlihe invention relates to improvements in receptacles adapted to contain a quantity of carnotite ore exposed to the circulation of water through said receptacleywhereby the water is charged with the radium therapeutic qualities.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a receptacle of the class specified which may be conveniently attached yto a water faucet, causing the water to pass through said receptacle and take up therapeutic qualities `ofradium, or other material adapted to be retained in said receptacle.
With these and other objects in view, the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawing.
In this drawing, Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of the receptacle; and Fig. 2 is a cross sectional view of the same, taken on the line 2 2, Fig. 1.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in` all the views ofthe accompanying drawing by the same reference characters.
Let the numeral 5 designate the upper part of the receptacle, the same being formed of a solid wall, and having a cap 6` threaded on the top thereof, as shown 1t/7.
The numeral 8 designates lthe lower part of the receptacle, which is attached to the lower extremity of the upper part 5 of the receptacle. This lower part 8 is composed of an upper ring 9 and a lower ring 10, the zwo rings being connected by vertical stays l2, the said lstays holding the rings in spaced apart relation'and forming a frame, )n the interior of which, vertically disposed screens 13 and 14 'are arranged. These screens 13 and 14 are spaced apart by means, of upper and lower spacing rings 15 and 16. The upper ring 9 is threaded lon a part 17, which is integrally formed Jwith the lower extremity ofthe part 5 of the'housing, the part 17 being of less diameter than the part 5 of the receptacle, whereby a shoulder 18 is formed against which the ring 9 is set. A cap 19 is threaded into the ring 10, the said cap being provided with an inwardly set Harige 20, on which the threads are provided: The cap 19 is. provided with a shoulder 21 bymeans of which the said cap may beoperated., An'annular r collar 20 rests on the iange 21 and supports the screens 13 and 14 as well as to serve as a spacing member for an inner housing 22. The carnotite ore, or other material is placed in this inner housing 22, the latter being formed of sheet iron, or .other substantial and stable material,
therethrough. rThe upper edge of the housing 22 is provided with a horizontally disposed outwardly extending Hange 23, the said Hange being cut out, as shown` at 24 to `form a seat vfora screen 25, which covers the top of said housin 22. The inner side of the wall of the part 5 ofthe receptacle,
near the lower extremity of said part, is provided with an anngular horizontally dis# posed flange 26, a gasket 27 being interposed between this ange 26 and the flange 23, thereby forming a Water-tight engage- 'enters after passing through the housing 22. The vertical members 12 serve to protect the screens 13 and 14 against injury, the said members being separated from the outer screen 13.
and having its l wall perforated to permit theiwater to pass The'device is attached to the water faucet 1n -any desired 'or convenient manner. In
the drawing, I have provided the cap 6 with a sleeve 28, which communicates with the interior of the part of the housing, the
said sleeve being provided with interior be looped'over the faucet as shown in dotted lines, the mouth of the faucet being received in the'sleeve 28. The bail 30 is formed of pliable spring wire, whereby the same may be twisted or crimped where necessary to properly adjust the bail to the faucet in such manner as to sustain the device in a proper position with respect to the faucet.
In operation, the water passes from the part 5 of the receptacle through the screen 25, the latter retaining any foreign sub,- stances, into the housing 22, vwherein the water comes into contact with the carnotite ore, being charged with radio-activity by said ore. The water-passes through the perforations of the housing 22 and through the screens 13 and 14 into' the basin. Thus, by this device, water is charged with radioactivity and used for its therapeutic qualities, either for drinking or bathing urposes.
.While I have described and il ustratedl herein, a specific form of the invention, it is understood that I am not limited thereto and that the invention may be modified and varied, according to the particular conditions under which it is being used and to suit convenience and taste, without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the appended claims. y o
