Improvements in Sewer and Drain Pipes.
I, EDWIN CODLING, A.M.I.C.E., of 3 Cross Street, Manchester, in the County of
Lancaster, Civil and Sanitary Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of this
Invention to be as follows:-
:-
My invention relates to improvements in sewer and drain pipes and is parti-
cularly applicable to pipes made of earthenware and stoneware, but it may also
be applied to pipes made of metal and the object of my improvements is to
dispense with the ordinary independent rest bend and junction for connecting
a vertical pipe from a drain to a horizontal sewer or drain placed at a lower
level.
To accomplish my object in earthenware or stoneware I form the sewer or
drain pipe and I form a rest junction in any convenient manner and after cutting
out a hole in the pipe to receive the end of this rest junction (both parts being
still in a plastic condition) the rest junction is fitted and united to the pipe in
the manner well known to those accustomed to the manufacture of sewer and
drain pipes and when this joint has been made the combined pipe and rest
junction are fired to complete the operation.
In practice it might be possible to form the combined pipe and rest junction
by one operation.
In the case of cast iron or other metal pipes the drain pipe and rest junction
would be moulded together.

Improvements in Sewer and Drain Pipes.
I, EDWIN CODLING, A.M.I.C.E., of 3 Cross Street, Manchester, in the County of
Lancaster, Civil and Sanitary 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:-

In the accompanying Sheet of Drawings
Figure 1 is a side elevation and Figure 2 a plan of a combined pipe and rest
junction made according to my improvements.
In these views, a designates the body of the main pipe and b the rest bend
or junction with which is formed a flat foot that rests upon the ground and
supports the pipe which fits into the rest bend.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
Invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is:
A rest bend or junction made or combined as one piece with a sewer or drain
pipe substantially as herein set forth.
Dated this 23rd day of November 1897.
