ADAPTER FOR FITTING PUMPS 'IO CASKS, TANKS, AND THE LIKE.
Application filed January 15, 1926, Serial NOrSLGM, and in Great Britain Fehruarylt, 1925.
This invention relates to an adapter or connecting device for holding a pipe such as a pump barrel or the suction pipe of a pump in the orifice of a cask, drum, tank or other 5 container, and has for its object to provide a simple device of this character which can be applied quickly and securely to the orifice and hold the pipe with its inner end extend ing to the bottom or opposite side of the container or to any desired depth in the container. a
The present invention comprises an adapter or connecting device for holding the suction pipe or barrel of apump or other pipe in an orifice in a cask, drum or other container,
consisting of a tubular member having a fastening device for holdingit in the orifice of the container such fastening device having fastening members adapted to be brought into engagement with the parts of the container adjacent the orifice and held there by the pipe to be secured in the orifice when such pipe is pushed into the tubular member. In the preferred construction of the adapter or connecting .device the fastening mechanism consists of two or more spaced levers pivoted to the lower end of the tubular member so as to swing radially outwards therefrom and having projecting portions extending within the tubular member so as to be engaged by the end of'theinserted pipe and turned about their pivots into engagement with the inner sides of the container and held there while the pipe is inplace in the tubular member. I
The projecting portions of the levers adapted to be engaged by the inserted pipe are shaped at their inner'ends to allow the end ofthe inserted pipe to pass beyond them 49 while maintaining their outer ends against the inner sides of the container.
In order thatthe invention may be more readily understood reference is made to the accompanying drawings in which Figure 1 F is a partly sectional elevation of an adapter made in accordance with the present invention and Figures 2, 8 and 1 modifications of the pouring spout. In Figure 1 of the drawlugs 12 is thetubular member which is provided at its upper end with'a fixed flange 9 and on which slides a flange 10 conical on its lower side so as to have a self centering effect on the orifice 13, the orifice 13 being the hole in the container of which portions of the sides are shown at 7. Extending between the fianges 9 and 10 and mounted freely on the tubular member 12 is a spiral spring 11, and at the lower end of the tubu lar member 12 is lined a ring 3, the tubular member 12 being cut away at places to enable fingers or levers 2, 2 pivoted on the ring 3 to ber 12 engages the inwardly projecting ends of the levers 2 and turns their outward ends upwards into engagement with the inner surfaces of the container 7 as shown in dotted lines at 6. The spring 11 is of sucha length as to force. the flange 10 into engagementwith the outside of the container while the levers 2 are forced in the opposite'direction into engagement with the inside of the contamer.
hen it is desired to use the device, the.
levers 2 are inserted freely into the orifice 13, and the flange .10 pressed against the edges of the orifice in the container '7. Thepipe l or pump barrel as the casemay be is now passed through the tubular container" l2 and pushed against the inner ends of the levers 2, so that the levers 2 are tilted about the pivot ring 3 outwards and upwards until they engage the inner surface of the container '2', against which they are held by the sides of the pipe l which engage the shaped ends of the levers 2 upon further inward movement of the piped.
-The piped may be released and removed from the container by applying sufficient pressure on the fixed flange 9 to forcethe tubular member 12 further into the contamer Z', when-the pressure of the levers 2 against the inside of the container and the" pipe 4 will be released so that the pipe 4 can be withdrawn. The removal of the pipe 1- tainer and so enable the tubular member12 to be removed from the orifice 13.
In the invention illustrated by Figure 2 the pipe, or pump'barrel d at its upper end. may be PlOVlClGClWltll a spoutl iinclined.
in an upward direction so as to leave its nozzlele higherthan the-end connectedto or formed on the pipe or pump barrel 4 so that the surplus liquid in the spout will drain back into the pipe or pump barrel l.
In Figure 3 the spout is fitted with a freely a allows the levers 2 to hang freely in the .con- 7
