PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Combined Rose and Nozzle or Jet:
THOMAS WATSON 253 Ecclesall Road Sheffield in the County of York Cashier
do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention has for its object an improved combined rose and nozzle or jet to .
be used in connection with syringes and other apparatus for distributing water and
other liquids.
According to my invention I cast the bell of the rose with the nozzle or jet and
the barrel of tap in one part, with water ways for both the rose and nozzle cored in
casting thereby creating a complete combination, which acting with other parts in
such a manner that the water can at pleasure be caused to issue either through the
rose or the nozzle and so that by turning the plug to which the barrel of tap is
attached partly round. The passage to the one is opened whilst that to the other
is closed. A perforated lid screwed or soldered on to the top of bell forms
the rose.
Water ways leading to the rose are bored diagonally through the plug and the
water way leading to the nozzle through the centre of plug.
These two sets of holes however are never both uncovered at one and the same
time, so that the water can only pass through the holes which correspond with the
holes contained as already mentioned in the barrel of tap.
The plug is readily turned in the barrel of tap, and so either the holes in the
barrel or plug can be brought to coincide. When the plug is turned half round
the flow of the water is entirely stopped.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Combined Rose and Nozzle or Jet.
I, THOMAS WATSON of 253 Ecclesall Road, Sheffield in the County of York,
Cashier, do hereby declare the nature of my said invention and in what manner the
same is to be performed to be particularly described and ascertained in and by
the following statement :-
This invention relates to that class of hose fittings known as combined rose and
jet terminals and consists in so arranging and simplifying the body portion of the
terminal as to enable the same to be cast in one piece which has not hitherto been
attained.
In carrying out my invention I cast the bell or body of the rose with the nozzle
or jet and the barrel of the tap in one part with the water ways for both rose and
nozzle cored in the casting thereby creating a complete combination which acting
with other parts in such a manner that the water can at pleasure be caused to issue
either through the rose or nozzle and so that by turning the plug to which the
barrel of the tap is fitted partly round the passage to the one is open whilst that to
the other is closed.
In order to make my invention more readily understood I will proceed to
describe the same with the aid of the drawing annexed.
Figs. 1, 2, and 3 are sections of my improved combined rose and jet terminal
shewing the relative positions of the plug as open to the rose, open to the jet, and
closed respectively.

page_text: A is the bell or body of the terminal baving a central tube B and barrel C
forming a passage for the jet; and the barrel C is provided with holes or
orifices C', C' and C' communicating with the rose and jet respectively, the bell A
jet passage or nozzle B and barrel being all cast in one piece. And which body
is also provided with a perforated cap A¹ either screwed or soldered to the
same.
The plug D, as illustrated, is provided with three passages D' and D³ com-
municating with the rose and D³ communicating with the jet portion of the terminal,
which passages correspond to the orifices C', C and C in the terminal body.
Figs. 245 and 6 represent the relative positions of the plug D and pin E.
Figs. 7, 8 and 9 are sections through the plug D taken along the lines a―b, o-d
and in Figs. 1, 2, 3.
As shown in Figs. 1, 4 and 7 the rose passages D¹ and D³ are open, and the jet
passage D closed, the plug or stop pin E being against the shoulder F in the body
of the terminal.
In Figs. 2, 5 and 8 the jet passage D' is open and the rose passages D' and D³
closed, the pin E being in the vertical position.
In Figs. 3, 6 and 9 both the rose passages D' and D' and the jet passage D' are
closed the pin being against the shoulder G as illustrated.
Although I have illustrated the above arrangement of plug passages in com-
bination with my improved terminal body I do not confine myself to this particular
arrangement of plug passages, as other arrangements might be found equally
suitable nor do I claim the above arrangement of plug passages other than in
combination with my improved terminal body.
Having thus particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed 1 declare that what I
claim is.
1st. The formation of a combined rose and jet terminal having bell A jet tube B
and barrel C cast in one piece substantially as hereinbefore described and illustrated
on the accompanying drawing.
2nd. The combination of bell A jet tube B and barrel C cast in one piece with
plug D having passages D¹, D' and D' communicating with the rose and jet
respectively substantially as and for the purposes hereinbefore described and
illustrated on the accompanying drawing.
