PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Junctions and Connecting Pipes for Soil and other
Waste Pipes.
I, JABEZ HULSE, S.P. Ebenezer House, High Street, Winsford, Cheshire, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:—
In the connection of a water closet outlet or other waste pipe to a verticle soil
pipe or discharge pipe I employ a jointed connecting tube made in two parts of cast
wrot or malleable iron copper zink earthenware or other suitable material for the
purpose. The first or inner part of my connecting tube is bent and its upper or inlet
end is flanged and prepared to receive and secure the lower end of the outlet of the
water closet or other outlet and is provided at suitable points in its lengths with pro-
jecting lugs or ears to secure the connecting pipe to the floor or other supporting
medium. The lower or outlet end of this first part is screwed on its outer diameter
with a male thread or flanged for the purpose of receiving the second part, one end
of which is socketed and screwed or flanged to fit the first part. The other or outer
end of this second part is terminated in and by a two way pipe open at each end at
right angles with the first length, thus forming a tee, the junction at the angles
being rounded to a proper radius. On the outer vertical face of the tee pipe a sight
hole of sufficient diameter with a proper screw plug thereto is provided. The whole
of the connecting tube in its several parts may be made of various dimensions and
the angles of the tee and the bend also may be modified to meet the requirements of
different cases.

Improvements in Junctions and Connecting Pipes for Soil and other
Waste Pipes.
I JABEZ HULSE Plumber &c. Ebenezer House High Street Winsford Cheshire
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:-
This invention relates to improvements in the construction and arrangements of
junction and connecting pipes for soil and other water pipes.
In my invention for the connection of a water closet outlet or other waste pipe to
a vertical soil pipe or discharge pipe I employ a connecting tube made in one or two
parts of cast wrot or malleable iron copper zink lead earthenware or other suitable
material for the purpose having screwed openings for ventilating pipe..

page_text: When constructed in two parts the first or inner part of my connecting tube is
bent and its upper or inlet end is flanged and prepared to receive and secure the lower
end of the outlet of the water closet or other outlet to make a tight joint therewith
and is provided at suitable points in its length witli projecting lugs or ears to secure
the connecting pipe to the floor or other supporting medium. The lower or outlet
end of the first part is secured on its outer diameter or flanged for the purpose of
receiving the second part one end of which is socketed and screwed or flanged to fit
the first part with water tight joint. The other or outer end of this second part is
terminated in and by a two way pipe open at each end at right angles with the first
length thus forming a tee for outlet and ventilation respectively the junction at
the angles being rounded to a proper radius to facilitate the passage of the contents
of the pipe.
On the outer vertical face of the tee pipe a sight hole of sufficient diameter with
a proper screw plug thereto is provided for inspection purposes also on the inner
vertical face a screwed opening is provided for reception of ventilating pipe from
upper part of tube.
When constructed in one piece the screwed or flanged joint in the centre is
omitted and a movable flange or fitting is used against the inside wall so as to
prevent undue pressure on the flange connecting to w.c. or other outlet. The whole
of the connecting tube in its several parts may be of various dimensions and the
angles of the tee and the bend also may be modified to meet the requirements of
different cases.
In order that my invention may be more fully understood I will describe the same
with reference to the accompanying sheet of drawings.

piece.
Fig. 2 is a section showing the junction or connecting tube in two parts with a
screwed joint.
Fig. 3 is a section showing a flanged joint between the two parts of tube.
The same letters of reference show the corresponding parts in the several figures
on the drawings.

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
1st. In improvements in junction and connecting pipes for soil and other waste
pipes the employment of a connecting tube made in one piece as in two parts as sub-
stantially delineated and set forth with reference to Figs. 1, 2 & 3.
2nd. In improvements in junction and connecting pipes the screwing socketing
or flanging together of the connecting tube as substantially delineated and set
forth.
3rd. In improvements in junction and connecting pipes the provision of a two way
termination pipe with a sight hole or inspecting plug as substantially delineated and
set forth.
4th. In improvements in junction and connecting pipes the provision of a
ventilating pipe from the connecting tube to the vertical soil pipe.
