Improvements in Garden Syringes and Delivery Pipes for Hose.
:
JOSEPH CLARKE THREADGOLD 45 Dudley Street Luton Bedfordshire Brass Founder
do hereby declare the nature of my invention for IMPROVEMENTS IN GARDEN SYRINGES
AND DELIVERY PIPES FOR HOSE to be as follows:-
My Invention consists in making a large cap to screw on the end of a Syringe
Tube and on the outside of the said cap, I screw into at equal distances 2-3-or more
roses, jets, or spreaders as 1 may require, and on the inside of cap, I have a cage
connected with and movable by a small hand wheel on the outside of the cap. In this
cage I have 2-3 or more pea valves, kept at equal distances from each other and by
moving the small hand wheel on the outside of the cap, I can move these pea valves
into the apertures by which the water passes into the roses or jets and so close all
but the one which I desire to use.
By this Invention the syringe can be filled much quicker than any other and the
roses, or jets need not be removed.

Improvements in Garden Syringes and Delivery Pipes for Hose.
I, JOSEPH CLARKE THREADGOLD, of 45 Dudley Street, Luton in the County of
Bedford Brass finisher" 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:-
My invention consists in making a large cap to screw on the end of the syringe
tube, and on the outside of the said cap, I screw into the same at equal distances,
two, three or more roses, jets, or spreeders as may be required, and on the inside of
the said cap I fix a moveable cage, connected with a small spiked or finger wheel,
fixed to a spindle, and on which the cage or cages revolve. In the cage I provide
two or three pea valves at equal distances from each other, and by moving the small
spiked wheel on the outside of the cap, the pea valves travel into the apertures by
which the water passes into roses or jets and closes all but the one I desire to use.
By my invention the syringe can be filled much quicker than by any other mode as
in sucking the water upwards, the water is drawn through the three or more
openings.
The advantages of my invention are that you are not required to be continually
screwing and unscrewing of either roses, jets or spreeders to a syringe as in the
present mode of proceedure with an ordinary syringe. And in order that my invention
may be thoroughly understood, I now proceed to describe the accompanying drawings
thereof, reference being had to letters and figures marked thereon.
Figure 1 represents the inside of the cap A, with cage H, revolving on the spindle J,
by means of the spiked wheel L, to work the pea valve E, this figure shows the pea
valves away from the apertures F. Figure 2, denotes the same as figure 1 with
the exception of the cage H being placed in the position for two of the pea valves
dropping into two of the three apertures, thereby leaving one opening for the water
to pass through when discharging the syringe. Figure 3 represents the outside view
of the cap, with rose B, the jet D, and the spreeder C.
Figure 4 is a section of the apparatus. Figure 5 denotes the underside of the
cage, with the dotted lines to show the pea valves.
Like letters refer to like parts in each of the figures.
A the cap. B the rose. C the spreeder. D the jet. E pea valve. F apertures.
G' the centre tube of the cage. the parts of the cage to hold the pea valves.
1 the spring. J the spindle. K the nut. L the spiked or finger wheel to work
the apparatus.
Having now fully described the nature and object of my invention and the
manner in which the same is to be performed, I claim as new and novel the
following:-
First The combination of the apparatus constructed in the сар, to screw on ny
syringe, to obviate the necessity of possessing separate rose, jet and spreeder,
substantially herein described and according to the accompanying drawings

page_text: Secondly: The combination of the mechanism, by which means I can stop up two
of the apertures, by the revolution of the cage with the pea valves, and thereby use
either the jet, rose, or spreeder, substantially herein described and according to the
accompanying drawings.
:
Thirdly I claim the cap to be applicable to branch pipes and the like, substantially
herein described and according to the accompanying drawings.
Fourthly I claim that by my invention the syringe can be filled with liquid (the
pea valves being loose) quicker than by any other now in use, as by the suction of
the plunger, it draws the liquid through three apertures instead of one, substantially
herein described and according to the accompanying drawings.
