IMPROVEMENT IN FAUCETS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 164,44 8, dated J one 15, 1875; application filed April 2.2, 1875.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ROBERT L. HALLETT, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Faucets, of which the following is a specification:
Figure 1 is atop view ofa wash-bowl stand to which my improved faucet has been applied. Fig. 2 is a detail section of the same, taken through the line a: a, Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a detail section of the same, taken through the line 3 3 Fig. 2, shown as adjusted for drawing both hot and cold water. Fig. 4 is the same view as Fig. 3, but shown adjusted for hot water alone. Fig. 5 is the same view as Fig. 3, but shown as adjusted for drawing cold water alone.
Similar letters sponding parts.
y invention has for its object to furnish an improvedfaucettordrawinghotand cold water, or two kinds of liquids, either at the same time and mixed or separately, and discharging them through the same discharge-pipe,
of reference indicate correreliable in use.
The invention consists in the combination, with a spherical case having two inlets and a single outlet, of a spherical valve contained within said case, and operated by a stem connected with a hand-wheel, the said valve having an orifice which is narrow in the middle and broad at the outer edge, so that the two inlets of the case may be opened either singly or both at a time.
A represents the case or shell of the faucet, which is made in the form of two hollow halfspheres, which are flanged at their edges to receive the bolts by which they are secured to each other. The caseA is provided with two inlet-pipes, a a at a little distance from each other and with oneoutlet-pipe, a upon theop posite sidefrom the said inlet-pipes, as shown in Fig. 2. B is the plug of the faucet, which is spherical in form, and has a hole, 1), formed through it. The hole I) is made narrow in the middle and flaring toward both ends, as shown in Figs.3,4,and5. Thesizeoftheouterendsof the hole I) is such that when turned into the position shown in Fig.3, theopenings of all three pipes a a a will be uncovered, and both hot and cold water or other two liquids to be drawn will flow out freely. By turning the plug in either direction a sufficient distance to cover the opening of one of the pipes a a the liquid from the other pipe alone will flow through the faucet. A ring-packing, of rubber orother suitable material, should be placed between the edges of the parts of the case A, so that the wear may be taken up by replacing said packing with a thinner one. 0 is the stem, which passes in through a holein the top of the case A, and is secured to the plug B, so that the said plug may be turned by turning the said stein (J. To the outer end of the stem 0 is attached a hand-wheel, knob, crank, or other handle, D, which has a pointer, d, attached to it and pointing to an index, E, attached to the stand or other support for the faucet, and which has marks formed upon it to indicate the position when both the inlets are uncovered, and when only one is uncovcred.
It will be observed that the faucet will not be opened by turning the plug B half a revolution.
Having thus described my invention, lclaiin as new and desire to secure by Letters Patcut- The combination, with the case A, having inlets a and a and a single outlet, a, of the spherical valve B, having a passage, 1), the stem 0, and the hand-wheel D, substantially as described.
