@anni @Militia GEORGE W. SMITH, OF NORWICH, CONNECTICUT.
Letters Patent No. 101,323, :Za/ted March 29, 1870.
IMPROVEMENT IN WATER-METERS.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same ing cylinder, provided with two or any suitable num- -ber of radiating hollow arms communicating internally with the cylinder and having their outer ends opening in opposite directions, the cylinder and arms being adjusted to 'revolve freely upon suitable bearings.-
vI inclose this apparatus in a suitable case which is divided internally into two compartments by a parti tion,.in which the upper end of the cylinder revolves, iitted and packed ina proper manner, so that the water, which ows into the upper part of vthecase,
'is discharged through the cylinder and arms into the water in the lower part of the case, thereby causing the apparatus to revolve in the water, the number of revolutions indicatiugthe volumel of water which passes through the meter.
The water may be drawn off from the bottonl'of the case, or at any other desired point.
Suitable registering mechanism is placed in the upper part of the case,and connected to the revolving cylinder..
In the accompanying drawings- Figure 1 is a perspective view of' the meter, with its connections.
Figure 2 is a vertical transverse section, showing the construction and arrangement of the internal parts."
. Figure 3 is an elevation, showing the revolving arms lC C and openings O O.
Figure 4 shows the pointed bearing F as connected to the discharge-pipe I).
A is the case or body of the meter, iliade oi' glass 0r any suitable material, divided by the partition H.
Below the partition are placed the hollow cylinder and arms B C C, revolving upon the p oint F, supported .by the bearing G, and provided at the point P with proper packing.
In the upper part of the case is placed the registering mechanism I I.
E is the pipe lthrough which the Water enters the meter, the arrows showing the direction of its flow.
l I do not claim as 4new the cylinder and arms B C C.
I claim as my invention- 1. The combination and arrangement of the upright hollow cylinder and arms B C C revolving in water in the lower chamber of the 'case A, having the upper end of the cylinder opening into the upper chamber of the case, and provided with packing, which, while, it permits the cylinder to revolve freely, causes all the water supplied to the upper chamber-to pass through the revolving cylinder and arms into the water in the lower chamber, whence it is discharged,
substantially as and for the purposes hereiubcfore set forth.
2 The combination in a water-meter of the revolving cylinder B, arms C C, partition H, bearings F and G, packing l), and registering mechanism I, all arranged and Voperating in the water within the case A, substantially as and for the purposes herein described.
GEORGE W. SMITH.
