Ef' 'Hating' a citizen of the United.y States, Iresidinnrat .'Springfield, inr the coui'ity ofV Clark and State f'Ohio, have.invcntedfceitain neuV and useful Improvements-in Strainers, `of

. which, the following is a specification, ief- Ierence being had therein 'tothe accompanying drawings;

My invention 'relates to'strain'ers, and more Aparticularly to astrainer for use in pipe lines', arranged to remove s olidf impurities without :interrupting theftiou' 'of 'the fluid. '-1 l The. objectofany invention is" to' provide.

a'simple, strong andj durable strainer that. willstand the shocks'and'strainsA incident to L its use, andsoarranged 4that: ittca'nlbe easily cleaned without interrupting thefiowA of the 2o y.
