Patented Aug. 1, 1922.
ARTHUR I. FISCHER, OF CLEVELAND, OHIO; ASSIGNOB TO MORRIS H. GLAUBEB, OF CLEVELAND, OHIO.
VITBEOUS-CHINA COCK OB FAUCEI'.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed October 1, 1919, Serial No. 827,734. Renewed April 27, 1922. Serial No. 557,081.
Toall whom it may concern:
Be it known that ARTHUR I. Freeman, citizen of the United States residing at Cleveland, in the county of duyahoga and State of Ohio, has invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Vitreous-China Cock or Faucet, of which the following is a specification.
This invention consists in a vitreous china cock or faucet in which the spout member and the valve body of the fixture are se arate parts sleeved together and made of if= ferent materials, and in which the valve body is set as a metal fixture upon and in a base or basin slab and the spout member is surmounted by a cap adapted to provide a hand grip. .The spout member and cap are preferabl made of vitreous china, porcelain or g ass, whereby the metal parts are completely enclosed to resent a sightly appearance and afford a sanitary covering for the working parts which are constructed and adapted to operate substantially as herein shown and described. In such an assembly of parts the water is transferred from the separate spout member and the object is to promote the assembly and disassembly of the parts, prevent leakage at the joints, and safeguard against strains and breakage of the weaker members made of vitreous material.
,In the accompanying drawings, Fig. 1 is a side elevation of the complete fixture assembled, and Fig. 2 is a centralseotional elevation thereof.
The details are shown in a series of separate views, in which Fi 3 is a sectional elevation of the vitreous-c ina crown-shalped hand grip for rotating the valve stem; ig. 4 is a perspective view of the ring nut which is adapted to be seated in the head of the spout over a gasket therein when engaged with the neck of the valve body. Fig. 5 is an elevation of the vitreous-china spout member, the head portion being in section. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of a packing nut adapted to enter into the top of the thimble, which is shown in vertical section in Fig. 7. Fig. 8 is a side view of the valve stem with a quick-thread corresponding to the thread in the thimble and adapted to o n and close the valve with a quick action. Fig. 9 is a vertical section of the valve body with a flat gasket or sealing member seated upon its base flange.
Primarily, the inventive concept is to provide a cock or faucet which will show nothing but an exclusively white vitreous spout member and a white vitreous surmounting cap or handle by which the valve is operated.
The spout member 2 and the crownshaped cap; or bulbous handle 3 being of vitreous china, porcelain 'or equivalent material and preferably white in color, are in a sense breakable; therefor special means for securing them in operating position and nnection with a valve body and working gifts are essentially necessary. Hence the means herein shown, wherein the spout member is made with a rounded enlargement or head having a fiat circular rim 4 adapted to rest directly upon a flat base or basin slab. The bottom side of this rounded enlargement is also made with an annular recess having a fiat seat 5 ada ted to hold a sealing gasket or Washer 6 w ich in turn is adapted to rest upon the flat annular flange 7 of the metal body 8 for the valve parts. When compressed the washer or gasket 6 provides a water-tight joint at the bottom side of spout member 2, and a similar water-tight joint is obtained at the upper end or neck 9 of spout member through the medium of a rubber gasket or packing ring 10 adapted to be compressed within an annular seat 11in neck 9 by a screw-ring or nut 12 engaged with the screw-threads about the upper end of body 8. The rounded enlargement of the stout member is open from top to bottom an formed with an inner chamber 14 open to the discharge passage of the spout, and the two gaskets prevent leaka from this chamber and also cushion and protect the vitreous body from contact with the metal part of the valve bog.
aving this basic assemblage, the valve stem 15 and the parts associated therewith can be placed in position or removed without disturbing nut 12 or the spout as fixed upon body 8, and the stem has a quickthread 16 on its lower portion engaged with like threads in a screw-sleeve or thimble 17 which is screwed into the upper end of body 8. A valve 18 on stem 15 is adapted to engage a valve seat 19 within body 8 beneath an opening or outlet 20 in the side thereof, and the top of said stem is angular to engage in a correspondingly-shaped central opening in a metal bushing fixed in cap body of metal having a neck with an outlet A screw 21 secures cap 3 to stem 15, and in its side, a spout member of vitreous matethe cap has a small recess 22 internally withrial sleeved upon said neck, means adapted in which the exposed head of a packing nut to make a fluid-tight connection between said 23 for stem 15 is adapted to extend. A body and spout member, a valve member skirting 24 also extends downwardly from operatively mounted within said body and the cap to cover and conceal thimble 17 and provided with a stem, and a cap and hand lock nut 12 in respect to which the cap rises grip of vitreous material operatively enand descends as it is rotated to open and gaging the said stem and overlapping the close the valve. Normally the cap is down upper sleeved portion of said spout member. and overlaps the upper end or extension of 4:. A cock or faucet consisting of a metal the spout head or enlargement thus leaving body having a screw-threaded neck at its none of the metal parts visible above the top and a flange about the base of said neck, slab or base through which the screwa s out member of vitreous material having, threaded pipe-connecting portion 26 of a cl'iambered head seated on said flange about body 8 extends. the base of said neck and united in water- Thimble 17 is externally threaded in its tight relation at the joints therewith, a lower portion and screwed into body 8 down thimble threaded into said neck having a to a slight collar or bead 25 about the upper quick internal thread, a valve having a stem portion thereof, while the thimble is also rotatably engaged with said thread, and a threaded internally just above this head to hand-grip fixed to said valve stem having receive the acking nut 23. Upon diseng a skirting surrounding the upper portion of ing cap 3 gom stem 15, thimble 17 can e the head of said spout. reached and unscrewed from body 8 and the 5. A cock or faucet, comprising a tubular valve can then be removed from the thimmetal body having an external flange and an ble, all without disassemblying the spout internal valve seat and provided with a disfrom the body or disturbing the setting of charge opening in its side opposite said valve the body on its base. seat and screw-threaded at its opposite ends, What I claim is: a vitreous china spout having an enlargel. A cook or faucet comprising a metallic ment with a recessed bottom adapted to seat body having valve parts therein, a spout on and cover said flange and provided with member of vitreous material having an ena central water-distributing chamber and an largement enclosin said body and clamped upper annular seat for a gasket, sealing in situ thereon, and a hand grip of vitreous members for said seats, a nut screw-engaged material surmounting said valve arts and with said body adapted to clamp the vitreous provided with a skirting surrounding a porchina spout and metal body together, a valve tion of said enlargement. member removably mounted within said 2. A cook or faucet, comprising a metallic metal body opposite the valve seat, and a body having a base flange, a spout member of bulbous recessed vitreous china handle sevitreous material provided with an enlargecured to said stem in covering relation to the ment seated over said base flange, a nut enspout enlargement. gaging the top of said body and bearing Signed at Cleveland, in the county of upon said spout member, and compressible Cuyahoga. and State of Ohio. this 26th day means interposed between said spout memof August, 1919. her and flange and said nut, respectively;
