I, WILLIAM JOHN BISHOP, of No 47 Maygrove Road, Brondesbury N.W. in the
County of Middlesex do hereby declare the nature of my invention for AUTOMATIC
APPARATUS FOR MIXING LIQUID DISINFECTANTS WITH WATER WITH OR WITHOUT
SPRAY, to be as follows:-
The apparatus consists of a large pipe fixed at one end to a hydrant the other
end being contracted so as to form a Nozzle. Within this pipe two small tubes
are fixed with Nozzles projecting towards the Nozzle of the large pipe, said Nozzles
being placed adjoining each other. The other ends of the small tubes are bent
so as to pass out of the large tube in opposite directions one entering a vessel
containing the disinfecting fluid and the other being left free for the admission of
air. A tap is fixed in each of the small tubes as close as possible to the outside of
the large pipe.
The action of the apparatus is as follows. The flow of water from the hydrant
through the large pipe causes a vacuum in each of the small tubes and the
disinfecting fluid and air then pass through their respective pipes and combine
with the water. The water & disinfecting fluid pass out of the nozzle of the large
pipe thoroughly mixed the admission of the air causing a Spray. The supply of
disinfecting fluid and air may be regulated by the taps in the small tubes.
a Spray is not required the air tube is kept closed.

I, WILLIAM JOHN BISHOP, of N° 47 Maygrove Road, Brondesbury, in the
County of Middlesex do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what
manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained
in and by the following statement :-
The apparatus consists of a large pipe fixed at one end to a hydrant the other
end being contracted so as to form a Nozzle. Within this pipe two small tubes
are fixed with Nozzles projecting towards the Nozzle of the large pipe said Nozzles
being placed adjoining each other. The other ends of the small tubes are bent
so as to pass out of the large tube in opposite directions one entering a vessel
containing the disinfecting fluid and the other being left free for the admission of
air. A tap is fixed in each of the small tubes as close as possible to the outside of
the large pipe.
The action of the apparatus is as follows. The flow of water from the hydrant
through the large pipe causes a vacuum in each of the small tubes and the
disinfecting fluid and air then pass through their respective pipes and combine
with the water. The water and disinfecting fluid pass out of the nozzle of the
large pipe thoroughly mixed the admission of air causing a Spray. The supply of
disinfecting fluid and air may be regulated by the taps in the small tubes.
a Spray is not required the air tube is kept closed.
When
The accompanying drawing shows a vertical section of the before described
apparatus A B is a large pipe fixed at the end B to a hydrant, the end A being
contracted to form a nozzle. Within this pipe two small tubes CD, EF are fixed
with nozzles D and E projecting towards the Nozzle A of the large pipe A B said
nozzles being placed adjoining each other at D E. The other ends C and F are
bent so as to pass out of the large tube in opposite directions one entering a vessel
placed at C containing disinfecting fluid and the other being left free for the
admission of air. Taps, are fixed, at H and I in each of the small tubes CD
and EF as close as possible to the outside of the large pipe.
In using the apparatus water is allowed to flow from the hydrant at B through
This
the large pipe A B the taps at H and I in the small tubes being left open.
flow of water causes a vacuum in each of the small tubes CD and EF and the
disinfectant from the vessel at C and the air pass through their respective pipes
and mix with the water and the mixture passes out of the apparatus at A ready
for use, the admission of air causing a spray.
The supply of disinfecting fluid may be regulated by the tap at H and the
supply of air by the tap at I. When a spray is not required the air tube E F is
kept closed by means of the tap at I.

invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is
The construction and use of automatic apparatus built up and consisting of
several parts substantially as and for the purposes herein described.
