LAVATORY.
Application filed June 18, 1926.
This invention relates to lavatories. Y
ln lavatories, as heretofore constructed, it has been impossible to remove the water from the bowl without dipping it out. This has, therefore, been a drawback to the usual construction of bowls. For example, when a house has to be left vacant in the winter for material length of time, there is considerable danger of water freezing and bursting the bowl. Tn addition to this, it is difficult to properly clean the bowl when the water stands in the usual position therein.
This invention is designed to overcome the above noted defects and objects of such invention are to provide a novel form of bowl which is so constructed that the water may be very easily drain-ed therefrom in a simple manner and without soiling the operators hands.
Most specifically, objects of this invention are to provide a bypass or drain passage in the bowl, normally closed by a rubber or other plug so that the plug may be partly retracted to permit the water to drain directly from the bowl without wetting the outer side thereof.
An embodiment of the invention is shown in the accompanying drawings in which:
The single view is a vertical section through the bowl.
Referring to the drawings, it will be seen that the bowl comprises the usual body portio-n l, which is equipped with the annular flushing passageway 2 supplied by the pipelike portion 3. This bowl has the usual rounded bottoml and the upwardly extending lip l associated with the downwardly ei;- tending lip 5, such lips formingl a curved passageway and a water trap The bottom portion of the bowl is hollow and provides a space 6, as shown.
A drain passage or bypass opening 7 is formed in the bottom and preferably slants downwardly and rearwardly, as indicated. This passage passes through the wall 8, as indicated by the reference character 9. An elongated plug 10, preferably of rubber, is provided for closing the passages 7 and 9.
Serial No. 116,829.
This plug', obviously, may be equipped with a handle or other means, but it has been found suflicient to provide a thickened or reenforced head ll, so that it may be freely manipulated, when desired.
vvifl'ien it is desired to drain the bowl, it is merely necessary to retract the plug, pulling it out to the position .shown on dot-ted lines, so as to open the passage 7 without opening the passage 9. This permits the water to drain directly into the hollow bottom of the bowl and from thence into the sewer.
It will be seen that the invention makes it possible to readily drain the bowl in a simple and easy manner without soiling the operators hands and withtheutmost facility.
Although the invention has been described in considerable detail, such description is intended as illustrative rather than limiting as the invention may be variously embodied and as the scope of such invention is to be determined as claimed.
I claim:
l. A toilet bowl having a body portion provided with a cup shaped bottom adapted to normally retain water and having a hollow portion below said bottom provided with an outer wall, said bottom having a slanting drain passageway and said outer wallhaving a slanting passageway aligning with said first mentioned passageway, and a plug passing directly through both of said passageways and normally closing passageway, said plug being adapted for partial withdrawal to open said drain passageway.
2. The combination of a toilet bowl having a curved bottom portion adapted to normally retain water therein, and having a water seal cooperating with such bottom portion, said bowl having a hollow cavity below the bottom, a slanting passageway communicating with the hollow cavity and opening into the bottom of said bowl, a rubber plug passing through said passageway and ex'- tending to the outer side of the bowl, whereby said plug may be partially retracted to place the bottom of the bowl in direct communication with said cavity through said passageway.
3. A toilet bowl comprising a body portion having a cup-like part adapted to retain water under normal conditions, and having supporting walls spacing said cup-like portion upwardly troni the extreme bottom of such bowl and thereby forming a Cavity below the cup-like portion, said cup-like portion having its bottom provided with a. slanting passage, and said side walls having a slanting passage aligning` with said first mentioned passage7 a rubber plug passing through both of said passages and extending, to the outer side of said bottom, whereby said plug may be retracted to open said first mentioned passage and permit water to drain from said cup-like portion into the cavity.
n testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set iny hand at Racine, in the county of Racine and State of 'Visconsin.
