ALVEUS J. CLEMMONS, OF aBldlltDEEIl, MISSISSIPPI.
Letters Patent No. 106,326, dated Augustll, 1870.
IMPROVEMENT IN WELL-BUCKETS.
The Schedule referred to in these -Letters Patent and rnakng past cl!" the same To all who-nt it may concc'rn:
' Be' it known that I, ALvEs' J. CLnMMoNs, ot Aberdeen, in the State of Mississippi, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Well-Buckets; andV I do hereby declare that the following is a full7 clear,
and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing and letters of ret'- creuce marked thereon making a part lof this specification, iu which- O Figures l, 2, .and 3 are sectional 'elevations of two varieties of my invention.
This invention has for its object the automatic emptyingr of buckets drawn full of water out ot'` a well.
The invention consists of a bucket provided with a valve in its bottom, said valve being so arranged that the weight ot' the bucket keeps it closed until an arm connected with the valve strikes a tippingdod placed within thecurb above a trough at the mouth of the well, and is, by said -tipping-rod, moved downward, and,l by such movement, opens the valve, so as to discharge the contents ofthe bucket into the trough, the weight of the bucket instantly closing the valve again as soon as the bucket is lowered away from the tipping rod.
To enable those skilled in the art to make and use between lugs e, which extend downward from any-convenient point of the bottom of the bucket, to the inner end ot' which lever the stem d is rigidly attached, the outer part'of the' lever being'turned upward and sharpened at its end, so that it may readily catch under -the tipping-rod.
7i, an arm, forked at one end, and piv0ted,by means of its forks,'in ears which extend from the upper end of the bucket,
t, a rod which connects the arm h with the lever f.
k, the vcord or chain which passes over the windlass above the mouth of the well, and is fastened to the arm It at m.
Z, ahood secured to the bottom of the bucket, iuclosing the stem d and lever f, and serving to conduct water, when the valve c is lifted, from the. bucket to the trough. 4 Y
The arm h'being held by thecuain k., the bucket falls away from it as far as possible. The outer end of the lever f, being connected with the arm h, is drawn upward thereby. lhe inner end of the lever f is consequently drawn downward, andthe valve c made to close the aperture b. The outer end of the lever, striking the tipping-rod, is lowered, and the valve raised. Thereupon water runs out of the bucket into the hood Z.'
In tig` 3 the valve c is below, instead of above the bottoni of the bucket, and the connecting-rod t' with in, instead ot outside the bucket.
lhe connecting-rod is jointed, at its lower extremity, to the upper end of the valve-stem d.
Across' the top ot' the bucket is, secured a spider, yn,
through an oritice in the center ofuvhich'tlen'od 'i passes. To the top of the rod is fastened the chain k, -by which the valve is drawn directly against the bottom of the bucket, thus closing the orifice b.
The arm fis secured, at its inner end, to the valve, and operates similarly to the arm f ot' tig. 2.
The combinatiouof tbe bucket a., arm h, lcver fI valve c, and vconnecting-rod ti., substantially as speci- Ved.`
