JOHN R. RICHARDSONQOF NEWCASTLE. PENNSYLVANIA.
Laim Patent N0.1o6,962, dated August 3o, 1ero.`
IMPRovEMnN'r IN WATER-WHEELS.
The Schedule referred to in these Lettera Patent and making part of the same.
panying drawing and to the letters'of reference marked thereon,`making a part of .this specification.
'lhe'nature of my invention consists in the construction and arrangement of a water-wheel, as will he hereinafter fully set forth.
In order to enable others skilled inl the art to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe its construction and operation, referring to the, annexed drawing, in which- Figure 1 is a plan view, part in section, and Figure 2 is a side view ot' my water-wheel.
Figure 3 is a section, showing a ditierent mode-oi` operating the wickets or gates.
, Figure 4 is a. side view ot' tig. 3,
Arepresents the wheel surrounded bythe casing B, which is provided with suitable openings for' the passage'of water to the wheel.
I ni the openings in'the casing B are placed gates or wickets, G C, which are hinged to the outer ends and operated by means of cams a a., upon vertical shafts b b.
'lhese shafts pass through ,the casing A, with elbows or cranks, d d, or their upper ends with pins or wrists to connect them all together by the links e e.
One of the shafts b is provided with a lever, D, to operate them.
` moving in By turning the lever D the gates or wickets C C are all operated atonce for the purpose of increasing or Adiminishing the openings or issues, regulating the amount of water necessary for a given amount of labor for the wheel to perform.
- Outside of -the ca sing B is the usual rim, E, whichv is only used tostop and start the wheel, and not to regulate the amount of water thrown on the wheel.
It' anything should happen to the outside rim, so.
as to prevent its closing, the water can be shut off by vthe gates or water-guides O O. I do not confine myself' to any particular mode of operating the inside gates or wickets O G, as that may be done in various ways. For instance, as shown in figs. 3 and 4, where said gates are represented as the wheel. In this case, in place of the cams a, there is a crank or projection, f, on each shaft '-b, which works between two pins or ears on the wheel.
Having thus fullydeseribed my invention, What- I olaim'a's new, and desire to secu-re by Letters Patent, is
In combination with the wheel A, casing B, and
outside rim E, the gates or wickets O C, arranged and operating snbstantiallyas and for the purposes herein set forth. In testimony that'I claim the foregoing, I have hereu nto set my hand and sealthis 17th day of June,
