PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improved Joint or Stopper for Sanitary and other like Pipes, also
applicable to Jars and Bottles.
We, WILLIAM SAMUEL EMDEN, of 39, Victoria Street, in the City of Westminster,
Agent, and FREDERICK HERBERT WILLIAM HIGGINS, of 5, Dunsmere Road,
Stamford Hill, in the County of Middlesex, Engineer, do hereby declare the nature
of this invention to be as follows:-
Our invention is intended to provide a simple and effective method of jointing
and stoppering sanitary pipes and particularly earthenware and stoneware pipes
although our invention may be applied to those made of metal and also to jars
such as pickle or fruit jars and bottles.
On
We will describe our invention as applied to earthenware or stoneware sanitary
pipes and in carrying it into effect we line the socket with a bituminous com-
position as in the well known Hassall and Stanford joints and cut or form grooves
or spaces opposite to each other in the said composition each groove or space being
say one quarter of the circumference and on the raised portions thus left we form
a thread extending over the whole or the lower portion only of the same.
the spigot end we cast or mould a corresponding outer lining of bituminous com-
position and cut out similar grooves leaving raised portions capable of passing
on the
the grooves or spaces in the socket. We form a screw or thread at the end (or
whole of) the raised portion. The spigot end of a pipe so prepared is inserted in the
socket end (also prepared) of the next pipe the raised portions of the composition
home
sliding through the grooves or spaces in the socket and when
a turn is
given to the pipe or stopper as the case may be when the screwed and threaded
portions engage and the joint is made. Liquid cement may be poured in through
the holes in the usual way if required.
"
رو
It will be seen that a stopper may be treated in like manner to the spigot end
of a pipe and so be secured.
In metal concrete and stoneware pipes the screwed projections may be cast in the
sockets and on the spigots and a similar method may be employed in jars and
stoppers for same or a suitable composition may be employed as in the case of
earthenware pipes.

page_text: Stamford Hill, in the County of Middlesex, Engineer, 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:-
Our invention is intended to provide a simple and effective method of jointing
and stopping sanitary pipes and particularly earthenware and stoneware pipes
although our invention may be applied to those made of metal.
For the purpose of indicating more clearly the nature of our invention we have
attached to this specification a sheet of drawings on which Figure 1 is a view of
our stopper and Figure 2 a sectional elevation of part of the socket end of a
sanitary pipe.
We will now describe our invention as applied to earthenware or stoneware
sanitary pipes and in carrying it into effect we line the socket A of the pipe with a
bituminous composition B as in the well known Hassall and Stanford joints and
cut or form grooves or spaces C opposite to each other in the said composition
each groove or space being, say, one quarter of the circumference, and on the raised
portions D thus left we form a thread or inclined groove E. On the spigot end F
of the stopper G, or of a pipe, we cast or mould a corresponding outer lining of
bituminous composition and cut out similar grooves leaving raised portions HH
capable of passing the grooves or spaces E in the socket. The spigot end of a
stopper or pipe so prepared is inserted in the socket end of a pipe or junction also
prepared as above described, the raised portions H H of the composition sliding
downwardly through the vertical grooves or spaces C in the socket, and when
"home," a turn or partial turn is given to the pipe or stopper (as the case may be)
when the raised and inclined groove or threaded portions Hand E engage and the
joint is made. Liquid cement may be poured in through holes in the usual way if
required.
:
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we
claim is:-
1. The means for and method of stoppering the sockets of sanitary and like pipes
and junctions substantially as herein before described with reference to the
accompanying drawings.
2. The method of jointing sanitary and like pipes substantially as hereinbefore
described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
