Improvements in Soil Pipes and Connections therewith, the same
Used for other Purposes.
WILLIAM BENNETT Hatton House St. Nicholas Street Worcester Engineer &
Ironmonger do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
The object of this invention is to convey foul gases & other substances safely away.
I carrying out my improvements at the bottom of the standard pipe between that &
the sewer drain-I place my syphon Trap-which is made thus-a square body, with a
cradle shaped bottom, with an inlet & outlet pipe on opposite sides. At a required
distance from the side of the syphon or gully Trap, upon the inlet pipe is an air
pipe both these pipes are flanged or socketed at the top-this syphon trap is so
formed at the top, with a ledge to carry a grate, also inside about 4 in. from top
is a turned up flange or ledge to receive the greace trap, with its turned down
edges, which consists in being a square body & cradle shaped bottom, having an
oblong opening, about 14x6 in. on two sides only with two winged or lips covering
same on the inside tops of the oblong holes, then increasing downwards untill it
reaches within 2 in. of the bottom, making a free edge under which the water
passes thence upwards through the oblong holes & hence into the syphon trap
underneath & so on into the drain. I make a two ringed socket, with a flange,"
as a standared pipe, in one peico, in cast iron, or other material, or the two
ringed socket, without the flange may be made double, or the inner ring may be
made of tinned steel, or iron, or otherwise & in other material, the outter ring (with
flange for single & for double without the flange), cast upon it also this single
two ringed socket, without flange, may be made to ordinary pipes. When I want to
make a two ringed socket, to any ordinary soil, rain water, or other pipes, I form out
of any desired material, a tube or any other shape required, & round this tube, I make
a flange & this tube with the flange upon it, I drive into any ordinary socket pipe, &
thus making a two ringed socket. The single two ringed socket flanged standard
pipe, above described, I place the flanged end of it, into the socket of the inlet pipe,
of the aforesaid syphon trap & the other end, with the two ringed socket receives an
ordinary cast iron piper, (or any other pipe required). At the top of this cast iron
pipe, I drive, the above aforesaid tube with flange into the socket, & thereby making
a two ringed socket, & into this socket, I put a short, or long peice of pipe (as may
be required) & upon this pipe, I slip an adjustable socket, with ears & having a screw
through boss, this collar or socket holds the pipes. When fixed in position by nails,
at the top of this short or long peice of pipe-I put one end of the two ringed double
socket as aforesaid described, & from the other end of this double socket, I put one
end of the branch pipe into it, & upon the end of the branch pipe leading to the
water closet, the two ringed single socket, & at the top of the branch pipe socket, I
place one of the aforesaid sockets into it-& put another peice of pipe into it, (also
another adjustable socket or collar as aforesaid described) & at the top of this pipe, I
make another two ringed socket as aforesaid-& from this socket, 1 fix a ventilator.
like a smoke cowl, or chimny pot, it consist of a plain peice of pipe on top of which
is a top head flanged outwards, & then inwards, with a hole through the top part, over
which is placed a flat peice of metal, to prevent dirt, or other matter falling down the
soil pipe, or ventilating pipe, & surrounding the whole is an outter ring of metal
about 8 in. deep, thus protecting the side of the ventilator from wind at the top of the
house. I make all the joints of the sockets fitting into each other, secure against the
escape of foul gases or other substances, by lead-or using other luting material
whatsoever may be required or desired. In preventing the foul-gases, & other

page_text: cap
substances escaping from the Bath waste water, I place my pipes & their connections
from the greating of my syphon-& at the top of my pipes, I form a trap head or
receiver which consists of a half head (or any other shape) about 12" deep with the
pipe about "long from bottom of inside head, over the top of inside pipe is
with the apex round upwards either to stand on legs or fastened by clips-to stand or
fit over top of receiving pipe, this forms the trap, the head itself being largest at the
bottom, & getting smaller towards the top, there is also a mouth peice, soldered on to
the Bath waste pipe, & discharges the waste water over top of apex-then down sides
under the bottom, & then flows over top of stock pipe inside head & thence to the
soil pipes to the greating of the syphon or otherwise-this arrangements with such
alterations as may be required to the rain water head can be applied & to other
purposes. It is understood, I shall make any modifications for carrying out my
invention, that may be desired, & I shall adopt any shaped pipes or bends, or patterns
as shall be required for trade purposes, & are used therein, & I shall make such
alterations or arrangements as may be required, when useing any part or parts of the
connections for other purposes-as Gas, Tar, Wine, Beer, heated Water, Steam,
Compressed Air, etc. etc.-also I shall manufacture in any desired material as cast
iron iron, steel, tin, zinc Fire clay, Earthenware, Terra cotta also in other metals &
compositions.

Used for other Purposes.
WILLIAM BENNETT. Hatton House, St. Nicholas Street, Worcester, Engineer &
Ironmonger, 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 object of this invention is to carry foul gases, & other substances safely away-
In carrying out my improvements at the bottom of the standard or starting pipe,
between this & the sewer drain, I place my syphon trap-which is made, a square
body with a cradle shape bottom, with an inlet & outlet pipe on opposite sides. At a
required distance from the syphon or gully trap, upon the inlet pipe, is an air pipe,
these pipes are flanged or socketed, if required. This syphon trap is so formed at
the top, with a ledge to carry a grate. Also inside about 4 in. from the top, is a
turned up flange or ledge to receive the greace trap with its turned down edge. The
greace trap, which consists in being a squar body, & cradle shape bottom, having an
oblong opening about 1 in. x 6 in. on two sides, only with two winged, or liped
covering on the inside tops of the oblong holes-then increasing downwards, towards
the centre within some 2 in. of the bottom making a free edge, under which the
water, etc. to pass, & hence upwards through the oblong holes, & hence into the syphon
trap underneath, & so into the drain.
Thus carrying safely away, through the double gully, tapped, or untapped, either
with water, or air to the main drain all sewage matter, & all foul gases, from all points,
either waterclosets, bath room, wash basin, housemaide's sink, waste pipe, storm water
head, yard overflow pipe-or from any other place I make a two ringed socket, with
any formed flange in one peice (for a starting or standard pipe) in cast iron, or other
material, or this starting pipe, with the flange upon it, may have the inner ring, made
as a tube, with flange in the centre of its length, to be fitted as a inner lining, & driven
in-or the two ringed socket, without the flange may be made double, or the inner
ring may be made of tinned steel or iron or otherwise & in other material-also this
two ringed socket, I make to the ordinary pipes. When I want to make a two ringed

page_text: socket, to any ordinary soil, rain water, or any other pipes 1 form out of any required
material a tube or shape desired & round this tube, I make a flange, & this tube with
the flange upon it-I drive into any ordinary socket pipe-Thus making a two
ringed socket, or this tube may be made without the flange upon it, & driven in to any
pipe.
The starting or standard pipe described-I place the flange of it, into the connection
of the aforesaid inlet pipe, of the syphon trap, & the other end with the two ringed
socket aforesaid described, receives an ordinary soil pipe, at the top of this pipe or
socket, I drive the above mentioned tube with the flange upon it, into the pipe, &
thereby making a two ringed socket, into this two ringed socket, I put a short or long
piece of pipe as may be required, & upon this pipe, I slip an adjustable collar, having
ears, & also having a screw hole through boss & a set pin-This collar holds the pipe,
when fixed in position, at the top of the short or long piece of pipe. I put one end of
the double socket aforesaid described-but the addition of ears for holding, & also to
be used, as a diminishing socket, if required, at the other end of this double socket, I
put one end of branch, Y, pipe, & the other end, leading to the water closet, or wash
basin, or bath waste-or any other place-This end receives the tube with the flange
upon it which, when sealed, by lead, cement or other material, prevents the escape of
the foul gases. At the top end, of the Y, or branch pipe, I drive another flangod tube,
described, & another piece of pipe & an adjustable collar as aforesaid, & at the
upper end of this pipe also I place another flanged tube, & from this socket I fix a
ventilator, like a smoke cowl, or chimney pot-it consists of a plain piece of pipe, on
top of which is a top head, flanged outwards, & then inwards, with a hole through the
top part, over which is placed a flat piece of metal, to prevent dirt, or other matter
falling down, the soil pipe, or ventilating pipe, & surrounding the whole, is an outer
ring of metal, about 8 in. deep, with a top covering.
Thus protecting the sides of the ventilator from wind at the top of the house-
I make all the joints fitting into each other, of the pipes, secure against the escape
of foul gases, Liquors or other substances with lead-cement, or other luting material
whatsoever, which may be required, or desired-In preventing the foul gases & other
substances escaping from the Bath waste receiver I place my pipes, with their con-
nections from the syphon trap-or from the Branch or Y pipe of the aforesaid soil
pipes At the top of my pipe or two ringed socket aforesaid described, I form
a trap head or receiver, which consists of a half head (or any other shape) about
12 in. deep, with the pipe about 4 in. long from bottom of inside head, over the top of
inside pipe, is a cap, with apex, round upwards, either to stand on legs or fastened by
clips, to stand, or fit, over top of receiving pipe, this forms the trap, the head itself
being largest at the bottom, & then getting smaller towards the top, there is also a
mouth piece soldered on to the bath waste pipe, & discharges the water over top of
apex, then down sides under the bottom, & then flows over top of stock pipe inside
head, & so hence to the soil pipes or syphon trap, or otherwise. This arrangement
with such alterations as may be required, to the rain-water-head, is applicable & to
other purposes. It is understood, I shall make any modifications for carrying out my
invention, that may be desired, & adopt any shape pipes bends, or patterns as shall
be required, for trade purposes & are used therein & I shall make such alterations
or arrangements as may be required, when using any part or parts, of the connections for
other purposes, also I shall manufacture in any desired material; as cast iron, iron,
steel, tin, zinc, Fireclay, Terra Cotta, also in any other material & composition.
