UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.,
LOUIS CHAIZE, OF SAN JOS, CALIFORNIA, ASSIGNOR OF ONEHALF HIS RIGHT TO HENRY M. NAGLEE, OF SAME PLACE.
IMPROVEMENT IN FAUCETS.
Speccation forming part of Letters Patent No. 164,805, dated June 22, 1875; application filed April 3o, 1875.
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, LoUIs CHATZE, of San J os, Santa Clara County, California, have invented certain Improvements in Faucets, of which the following is a specification: u
The main object of my invention is to construct a faucet, the plug ofY which, while perfectly tight, shall not be liable to become jammed in its seat, and this object I attain in vdischarge pipes, and the branch a2 being similarly threaded for receiving a screw-plug, E, which can be adapted to the branch al when it is desirable to attach .the supply-pipe to the branch a?, the branch a in all cases being the outlet. To a tapering socket extending V across the chest at right angles to the branches a al, and prolonged through the branch a3 is fitted a tapering hollow plug, A, open at both ends and having a lateral opening, e, which may, by turning the plug, be made to coincide with an. opening, fi, in the socket. The plug A occupies a portion only of the socket, to the remainder ot' which is tted a short tapering plug, C, having at the lower end a square or other suitablyshaped projection, '0, extending into but not closing the small end of the main plug A and leaving channels, t t, for a purpose described hereafter. A pin, s, passes through the projection o and through such enlarged openings in the main plug that while the latter cannot4 turn without the'smaller plug, it can have a limited longitudinal play in the socket. A square or other suitably formed termination of the plug C projects beyondthe branch a3, to receive an operating handle, D, and there :is a passage, C, forming a communication between the branch al or the branch a2, as the case may be, and the interior of the plug A. The water, steam, or other fluid entering the chest through either of the branches al or a2, 'passes into the tapering plug A, and when the latter is suitably adjusted, through the openingse li to the outlet branch a. Owing to the4 tapering form of the plug, and to the application of pressure to the larger end ot' the same, the said pressure will tend to maintain the plug in its seat, but this plug is prevented from becoming jammed in the chest by permitting the fluid to have access to its small end through the channels t t, therebycounteracting without entirely counterbalanc ing the direct pressure. Owing to the loose connection of the large with the small plug C, the latter can be brought firmly to its seat without jamming the large plug, j
VThe modification, Fig. 3, illustrating my invention', as applied to anotherstyle of faucet,
will be readily understood Without explanation.
I claim as my inventionl. The combination in a faucet of the two plugs A and C, loosely connected together, the plug A being open at its large end to the inlet, and having a passage through it tothe space between the two plugs, all substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. The combination of the outer casing or chest, and its open plug, A, With the branches ai and a2, both communicating with the said plug Vand with a screwplug, E, adapted to both branches, as set forth for the purpose specified.
ln Vtestimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
Louis GHAIZE.
Witnesses E. W. ARAM, D. S. PAYNE.
