TOILET BOWL.
Application filed July 26,
To all whom if muy Volterra.'
Be it known that l. Lewis l). TUCKER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Gloucester, in the county ot Fssef; and @tate of Massachusetts. have invented certain new and useful ,improvements in Toilet Bowls; and. l do declare the follmving to lr-e a full, clear`y 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.
This invention relates to an improved toilet bowl and one object of the invention is to provide a bowl having an improved construction whereby the bowl is provided with an overflow passage communicating with the outlet so that in case the outlet should become choked and the bowl filled, surplus water may pass into the overflow outlet and down into the main outlet.
Another object of the invention is to so construct the overflow outlet that a water seal may be formed therein similar to the water seal usually provided in the lower portion of a bowl.
Another object of the invention is to so construct this bowl that water may he fed into the overflow outlet from the main supply conduit and thus the water seal of the overflow outlet kept filled.
Another object of the invention is to so construct this overflow outlet that a drain may he provided for draining the water seal thereof when necessary.
Another object o'l' the invention is to so construct this bowl that the auxiliary or overflow outlet may be provided with a removable cap Ylor cleaning purposes.
This invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawingsw wherein Figure l is a view slimving the improved bowl partially in front elevation and par tially in vertical section,
Figure is a view showing .he improved bowlpartiallyv in side elevation and partially in vertical section,
Figure ll is a top plan view of the iinproved bowl,
Figure 4 is a view showingA the bowl in rear elevation7 the overflow outlet being shown in section along the line 4 4 of Fie. 3. and
Figure 5 is a fragmentary sectional view taken along the line 5**5 of Fig. il.
This improved bowl l in general appearance resembles an ordinary bowl and is 1920. Serial No. 398,868.
provided with an outlet 2 and baffle plates or partitions 3 and 4 so that the usual sink 5 is provided for forming a water seal when this sink is filled with water as shown in Fig. The usual water inlet passage 6 is provided and also theusual annular water passage 7 and a ballie plate 6 extends downwardly in front of the main water inlet passage 6 so that water entering the bowl through this passage will be directed downwardly into the sink and out through the outlet 2. It will thus be seen that when the device is in operation, water from the res ervoir tank 9 will pass through the pipe 10 and through the inlet 6 into the bowl where it will strike the plate 8 and be directed downwardly.
It sometimes happens that the outlet passage 2 will become choked above or below the partition or baffle 4 and the bowl will then fill since Water cannot pass freely through the outlet passage 2 which causes the bowl to overflow and it is to overcome this objection that the improved construction has been provided. In order to prevent the bowl from overflowing, there has been provided an overflow passage 11 which communicates with the outlet beneath the sink as shown in Fig. 2 and extends upwardly through the rear wall of the bowl. The overflow passage ll is provided with an enlarged upper end portion whirh extends beneath and upon opposite sides of the conduit 6 through which water passes into the bowl and the baffle plate 12 is provided in the upper portion of this overflow passage as shown in Fig. 4 thus providing a sink which will lill with water and thus form a water seal. lt should' be noted that the water passage or conduit 6 is provided with an opening 14 through which water may pass to fill this sink X3 and thus insure the provision of a water seal at the upper end of' this overflow passage 11 and further that the rear wall of the sink is provided with a drain openino" normally closed by a threaded plug 15 which may be removed when it is desired to drain the sink 13 for any reason. The entrance side of this overflow sink 13 is provided with a main inlet openin 16 communicating with the bowl and with smaller auxiliary inlet openings 17 and in order to permit ready access to the sink 13 for cleaning or repairing purposes, there has been provided a removable cover plate 18 which closes the upper end as shown in Figs. l and 5 and is releaisevhly held in place by bolts or other removable fasteners i9. From un inspection of Fig. 5 it will he further noted that this sink is provided with e brunch erin 2li whiwh extends through the rear wall and will he normally closed hy a suitable plug or ('up :3l :as shown in Fig.
Then this howl is in use. water troni the reservoir passes through theV pipe lll into the conduit (i and through this conduit into the howl, a certain portion of the waiter pussing through the opening il into the sink 13. The opening 14 is, howeverA7 efeomperiu tively smell opening and therefore the nmjor portion of the Water will pass directly; through the conduit and only e smell portion pass through the opening lll, this amount, however, being sufficient to keep the sink 13V filled. It is further noted that since the sink is filled to the point shown in Fig. 4, s certain amount ot the water in this sinlc will he drawn out :is the water passes through the conduit and this will he replaced by fresh water thus keeping the wn ter in the sinkI fron'rbeeoming stagnant. Il' the outlet passage 2should become choked in anyway, the bowl Willfill andthe surplus water which ordinerily would` overflow, will pass through the overflow openings 16 and 17 into the overflow passage and will pass down through this passage 1L and ontE through the mehr outlet beneath the pertition or hnliie 'l. It will thus he seen that danger of the howl overflowing will he avoided and flooring and woodwork will he saved from dlmuge.
'What is claimed is:
A bowl having an outlet :and having e conductor pipe extending transversely through the Woll oi the howl :uljzn'ent the upper end thereof for supplying waiter to the bowl. the howl having` in its walls e ver-- tically disposed overflow passage having its lower end communieetinpwith the outlet of the bowl and having its upper end portion provided with arms extending upon opposite sides ot' the conductor pipe. one erm having a side opening forming; en inlet eornmunicating with the interior of the howl, and u buffle plate positioned in the upper portion of the overflow 'passage ut the lower end of the arm thereof and extending heneath and partially about the water supplyv pipe of the howl to provide e, inter seul Sink, the Water SuppljyY pipe ot the` howl hilving an openingl for 'feeding water to the weter seal sink.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
