24,807. Becker, N. Oct. 26. Actuating valves and cocks from a distance. A low-pressure pipe A for conveying gas, water, steam, &c. is adapted to be opened or closed to any desired extent by an india-rubber or like bladder C situated within a chamber B and communicating by a pipe D with a compressed-air ball E recessed into a plate F, which may be some distance from the pipe A. On passing the disc G over the said ball, air inflates the bladder C, thereby causing it to press against the walls of the chamber B and close the pipe A. The ball E may be replaced by a cylinder filled with compressed air or the like, and stoppers of india-rubber, metal, or the like may be mounted on the bladder C.
