Improvements in Pipe Mounts.
Year: 1885

page_text: I, CHARLES PRICE of 5 Church Terrace, Battersea, in the County of Surrey,
Gentleman, do hereby declare the nature of this invention, to be as follows:-
This invention relates to adjustable pipe mounts constructed to facilitate the
adjustment and readjustment of the stem and mouthpiece of the pipe. The mount
is made in two parts, one part is fixed to the mouthpiece and consists of a plate,
conducting tube, and a bead headed pin; the other part is a corresponding plate
fixed to the stem of the bowl and has a passage for the reception of the conducting
tube, and also an aperture to receive the bead headed pin and groove to receive
the pin on the opposite plate. By inserting the conducting tube of the mouth-
piece in the channel of the stem, the bead headed pin into the aperture the pin
finds its way into the mouth of the groove, a quarter turn of the mouthpiece to
the right causes the pin to travel the length of the groove, when the pipe becomes
perfectly secure and entire and is kept in position by the bead headed pin.

Improvements in Pipe Mounts.
I, CHARLES PRICE of 5 Church Terrace, Battersea, in the County of Surrey
Gentleman, 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 adjustable pipe mounts, constructed to facilitate the
adjustment and readjustment of the stem and mouthpiece of the pipe. The mount
is made in two parts, one part is fixed to the mouthpiece, and consists of a plate,

page_text: conducting tube, and a stud-headed pin the other part is a plate fixed to the stem
of the bowl, and has a passage for the reception of the conducting tube, and also
an aperture or slot to receive the bead-headed pin on the opposite plate. By
inserting the conducting tube of the mouthpiece in the central channel of the stem,
and the bead-headed pin into the mouth of the groove a partial turn of the mouth-
piece causes the pin to travel the length of the groove when the pipe becomes
perfectly secure and entire, being kept in position by the bead-headed pin-The
mounts as preferably made of metal.
The drawing hereunto annexed illustrates a convenient mode of performing the
invention, and shows a pipe fitted with the improved mount, like letters indicating
corresponding parts. Fig. 1 is a side view, Fig. 2, end view of pipe mount with
mouth piece removed, Fig. 3 end view of mouth piece mount with pipe stem and
bowl removed. Fig. 4 cross section of pipe mount.
A is a mount fixed on the stem and made with a hole or passage for smoke D,
which also serves to receive the projecting tube C thro' which smoke passes, of the
mouth piece mount or plate B.
E is a curved aperture, recess or slot, made larger at one end to receive the stud
head F, which is inserted therein at the same time as the tube C is placed in D
when by giving a partial turn of the mount A or B the pin of the stud head F is
slided into and held by the smallest or narrowest part of the rims of the slot E,
and A. & B thus firmly secured in place, the shoulder of the stud F preventing the
mounts being pulled apart.
Of course the mounts could be otherwise placed, than shown and described,
A could be placed on the mouthpiece, and B on the pipe stem, but the position
shown is preferred.
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:
L
The improved pipe-mount formed of the two parts A and B easily detachable
one from the other, combined with the pin stud F slot E and tube C for the
purposes of securing A and B in contact, all substantially as described and
illustrated.
