PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Nozzle Connecting Fittings.
We JAMES HENRY STONE, and HERBERT STONE, both of Bracebridge Street,
Birmingham, Brassfounders, and SAMUEL WILLIAM IIUGHES, of Wheeler Street,
Bmingham, Toolmaker, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:
1
This invention relates to improvements in the nozzle connections of air or water
apparatus, and chiefly intended for pneumatic tvre inflators
Much inconvenience is experienced with the inflators now in use, in connecting
them up to the valve of the tyre by reason of the fact that the whole of the plunger
od has to be evolved in the process of scrowing the nozzle on to the valve. This
difficulty our invention is intended to obviate.
It consists as follows:-
:―
We make a short length of metal pipe to the one end of which the usual
Hexible tube is stably attached by wiring &c. At its other end is an enlarged
collar. We now provide a coupling box prepared at its one end either
internally or externally by screwthread or othei wise for attachment to the valve
of the tyre to be inflated. The other end of this box is prepared tubular like, to
receive internally the enlarged end of the short pipe, a valve like disc of metal or
other suitable material having been first inserted. The overhanging edge of the
tubular box is now closed down over the enlarged collar, and thus secures the whole
together, yet with a sufficient freedom to allow of the box to be revolved when
necessary, quite independent of the pipe It will be thus seen that the separate
screw cap used in ordinary connecting unions is here dispensed with.
It will be readily seen that this improved arrangement may be used for apparatus
where water &c. 18 operated upon instead of air

We, JAMES HENRY STONE, and HERBERT STONE, both of Bracebridge Street,
Birmingham, Brassfounders, and SAMUEL WILLIAM HUGHES, of Wheeler Street,
Birmingham, Toolmaker, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what
mauner 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 nozzle connections of an or water

rod has to be evolved in the process of screwing the nozzle on to the valve. This
difficulty our invention is intended to obstate.

page_text: In order to more particularly explain the nature of this our invention, we have
appended hereunto an illustrated drawing upon which are figures and numbers
of reference similar numbers referring throughout the views to the same thing
or part.
Fig 1, is a sectional view of this our invention as seen in course of construction
Fig. 2, is a sectional view of the invention in its completed working form
It consists as follows
-
We make a short length of metal pipe 3, to the one end of which the usual
flexible tube 4, is suitably attached by wiring &c. At its other end is an
enlarged collar 5. We now provide a coupling box 6, prepared at its one end
either internally or externally by scren thread 7, or other wise for attachment
to the valve of the tyre to be inflated The other end of this box is prepared
tubular like at 8, to receive interually the enlarged end a, of the short pipe 3, a
valve like dise 9, of metal, vulcanite, or other suitable material having been hist
inserted. The overhanging edge 10, of the tubular box is now closed down over
the enlarged collar, and thus secures the whole together, yet with a suflicient
freedom to allow of the box to be revolved when necessary, quite independently of
the pipe. It will be thus seen that the separate screw cap used in ordinary
connecting unions is here dispensed with.
It will be readily seen that this improved arrangement may be used for apparatus
where water &c. is operated upon instead of air.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this our said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what
we claim is
1
The improved nozzle connector fitting for pneumatic tyle inflators and the like,
substantially as herein described and illustrated.
