Abstract
Abstract A sillcock intended to be mounted in a wall between a warm space and a cold space to provide a water flow passage through the wall comprises a water flow pipe extending between the warm side and the cold side of the wall, a shut-off valve including a valve seat and an associated valve body, a valve control member disposed on the cold side of the wall and a valve control rod disposed within the water flow pipe and connecting the valve control member with the valve. The valve seat of the shut-off valve is located within the water flow pipe at a point along the pipe, which has a lowest temperature exceeding 0°C, when the sillcock is mounted in a wall, and preferably at a point located between the warm side of the wall and the location of the zero isotherm within the wall.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
173 words
A water faucet for mounting in a wall between a warm space on one side of the wall and a cold space on the other side of the wall, comprising a pipe extending continuously through the wall and having a first axial end at the warm side of the wall and a second axial end at the cold side of the wall so as to provide a water flow passage through the wall, a shut-off valve for the water flow through said pipe, said shut-off valve including a stationary valve seat fixed within said pipe to the inside of the wall of the pipe at a point along the pipe substantially equally spaced from said first and second ends of the pipe and a movable valve body cooperating with said valve seat, a valve control member at said second end of said pipe, and a valve control rod extending axially within said pipe between said valve control member and said valve body and operatively connecting said valve control member to said valve body.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
173 words
A water faucet for mounting in a wall between a warm space on one side of the wall and a cold space on the other side of the wall, comprising a pipe extending continuously through the wall and having a first axial end at the warm side of the wall and a second axial end at the cold side of the wall so as to provide a water flow passage through the wall, a shut-off valve for the water flow through said pipe, said shut-off valve including a stationary valve seat fixed within said pipe to the inside of the wall of the pipe at a point along the pipe substantially equally spaced from said first and second ends of the pipe and a movable valve body cooperating with said valve seat, a valve control member at said second end of said pipe, and a valve control rod extending axially within said pipe between said valve control member and said valve body and operatively connecting said valve control member to said valve body.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
296 words
A water faucet for mounting in a wall between a warm space on one side of the wall and a cold space on the other side of the wall, comprising a pipe extending continuously through the wall and having a first axial end at the warm side of the wall and a second axial end at the cold side of the wall so as to provide a water flow passage through the wall, a shut-off valve for the water flow through said pipe, said shut-off valve including a stationary valve seat fixed within said pipe to the inside of the wall of the pipe at a point along the pipe substantially spaced from said first end as well as said second end of the pipe and a movable valve body cooperating with said valve seat, a valve control member at said second end of said pipe, a valve control rod extending axially within said pipe between said valve control member and said valve body and operatively connecting said valve control member to said valve body, said pipe having an external thread at the location of said valve seat, and a tubular sleeve having a substantially larger inner diameter than the outer diameter of said pipe surrounding the portion of said pipe between said valve seat and said first end of said pipe so as to provide an annular coaxial space between said tubular sleeve and said portion of said pipe, said tubular sleeve having at its end adjacent said valve seat an internal thread screwed onto said external thread of said pipe and at its opposite end a radially external flange, said annular space being in open communication with the ambient atmosphere on the warm side of the wall at said first end of said pipe.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
296 words
A water faucet for mounting in a wall between a warm space on one side of the wall and a cold space on the other side of the wall, comprising a pipe extending continuously through the wall and having a first axial end at the warm side of the wall and a second axial end at the cold side of the wall so as to provide a water flow passage through the wall, a shut-off valve for the water flow through said pipe, said shut-off valve including a stationary valve seat fixed within said pipe to the inside of the wall of the pipe at a point along the pipe substantially spaced from said first end as well as said second end of the pipe and a movable valve body cooperating with said valve seat, a valve control member at said second end of said pipe, a valve control rod extending axially within said pipe between said valve control member and said valve body and operatively connecting said valve control member to said valve body, said pipe having an external thread at the location of said valve seat, and a tubular sleeve having a substantially larger inner diameter than the outer diameter of said pipe surrounding the portion of said pipe between said valve seat and said first end of said pipe so as to provide an annular coaxial space between said tubular sleeve and said portion of said pipe, said tubular sleeve having at its end adjacent said valve seat an internal thread screwed onto said external thread of said pipe and at its opposite end a radially external flange, said annular space being in open communication with the ambient atmosphere on the warm side of the wall at said first end of said pipe.
