ABSTRACT:
A self-draining sill cock assembly is disclosed comprising a fluid outlet for location on an exterior wall, a fluid flow inlet adapted for location adjacent an interior wall and remote from the fluid outlet, a first conduit connecting the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet with the conduit inclined downwardly from the outlet to the inlet, a selectively operable valve located adjacent the fluid flow inlet for alternatively opening and closing the fluid flow inlet, a second conduit operatively connected to said valve adjacent the fluid flow inlet and connected to a drain discharge adapted for location on the exterior wall with the valve alternatively opening and closing the second conduit, the second conduit being inclined downwardly from the valve to the drain discharge, and a manually operated valve control means adapted for location on the exterior wall and extending through the second conduit to the valve. The valve is located adjacent the interior wall while the valve control means is located adjacent the exterior wall with the valve having a first position closing the second conduit and fluidly connecting the first conduit to the fluid flow inlet, a second position closing both the fluid flow inlet and the second conduit, and a third position closing the fluid flow inlet and opening the second conduit for fluid communication with the first conduit whereby fluid in the first conduit would flow down the first conduit, through the valve, down through the second conduit, and out the drain on the exterior side of the wall. An air vent aperture in the valve control means provides venting of the second conduit.
