OF ONE-FIFTH: TO WILLIAM KUBINA, OF CHARLEROI, PENNSYLVANIA TWIN VACUUM-TURBINE. 1,112,956. pe fi n of Letters Patent Patented Oct. 6, 1914. Application filed April 28, 1914. Serial N 0. 834,997. To all whom it may concern: l 10, and mounted on said shaft are valves 11 Be it known that we PETER F. Will rr. and and 12, said valves hem or identical con- MERCER M. LEONARD, citizens of the United struction, and each valve comprising a disk States, residing at Leavenworth, 1n the having an opening extending through the 5 county of Leavenworth and State of Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Twin Vacuum-Turbines, of which the, following is a specification.
This invent-ion relates to twin vacuum turbines, designed for the purpose of producing energy or power without requiring an exhaust into the atmosphere.
Another object Of the invention is to provide a twin vacuum turbine to be run by two separate and distinct gases which when they unite after having "expended their power in rotating the turbine are converted into a liquid whichcan be run off at will, thus providing a turbine which can beused in submarine boats or in other positions where an exhaust into the atmosphere would be impossible.
same from periphery to periphery, and an acetylene gas pipe 13 communicates with the valve casing 8 and a hydrogen-chlorin gas pipe ll communicates with the valve casino 9. The intake duct in the valve Sis pro vided with oppositelv disposed branch ducts (r-/). and at opposite sides of'tlle valve 11 these ducts are continued to form branches chandle or lever 16 is shaft 10 for operating the valve, and it will be readily apparent that a movement of the handle 16 will operate both the valve 11 and 12 simultanemisly to open communication from the pipes 13 and 1% to the cylinder through the ducts c and (Z, and the gases which impinge upon tlievanes 5 push the k turbine wheel in one direction or the other Still another object of the invention is to dependent upon the movement of the handle provide a turbine to be run by two com- 16. The acetylene gas and the hydrogenparatively inexpensive gases and which will chlorin gas are kept develop considerable power at slight exhave performed their function of rotating pense, and in which the exhaust of the two the turbine wheel and when they are disgases would be converted into a liquid which charged at .the lower end of the wheel. the could be readily run 0d and disposed of ungases unite and form a liquid .which drops der conditions which would not be possible into the reducing chamber 6 having an outwith a steam or other form of turbine relet f. quiring an exhaust into the atmosphere. Acetylene gas can be produced by use of These and other objects may be attained calcium cal-bid and water, amlhydrogenby means of the construction illustrated in chlorin gas can be generated in the same 35 the accompanying drawings, in which, kind of generator by the use of sulfuric acid Figure l is a-side elevation of a twin turand salt. These two gases are comparatively bine made in accordance with this inveninexpensive to manufacture and they are 2 is a vertical sectional view both capable of developing considerable tion, Fig. throu h one of the c huders and its valve rower. The reat advantage of their use in connected to the 115 40 mechanism and the turbine wheel, Fig. 3 is the present ,instance, is that the exhaust an end elevation of the twin vacuum turbine, irom the use of these gases forms a liquid and F1541 4 1Q 11 ertical section taken longiwinch can be run off and. disposed of with of the casing.
Rpferring to the drawings, the numeral 1 designates a double cylinder mounted on a hollow base 2, and extending into said cylinder is a shaft 3 to which is keyed a hub i. of the turbine wheel. said wheel being: provided with radial blades or vanes 5, and said shaft being mounted on ball bearings (3. The cylinder 1 is divided by a central partition 7.
hlounted'on the cylinder are two separate and distinct valve casingz s 8 and 1 one upon each side of the partition 7. Extending through the valve casings S and 9 is a shaft out access to the outer atmosphere and thus rendering the invention particularlv desirable for submarine purposes.
Various changes may be made in the dc tails of construction of the turbine without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the claims.
What is claimed is:-
1. A double turbine wheel comprising a cylinder having two wmpartments therein. a wheel mounted upon a single shalt and mounted in said compartments. ens teed pipes leading into each compartment. valves tudinallv separated until they lit) , mounted in each for controlling the flowof gas in said coin artments anda reducing chamber'unden' neath the turbine wheels whereby said turbine wheel may be operated by two separate and distinct gases which unite-aftertheir force has been spent to form a liquid, thus obviating the'necessity of'an exhaust into the atmosphere. 2. A turbine wheel comprising a cylinder having a partition therein, a turbine wheel chamber atopposite sides of the partition and means for leading two separate-and distinct gases into said chambers, said gases adapted to unite after they have expended their force and, form aliqui'd,
thus obviating phei'ic' exhaust.
it method which consists in leading acetylene-gas an hydrogen-chlorin gas into separate chambers to utilize combinediorces, and permitting said gases to exhaust and unite to form a liquid. l i

.5. A double turbine comprising a casing having separate I bine wheels mounted upon a single shaft and disposed in said chambers, means turbine wheels mountedfin said chambers, means for admitting the separate gases n each separate chamber, and a reducing ehan'iber underneath the turbine wheels-to receive the exhaust gases in liquidfa In testimony whereof we aftixour' signatures in presence of two witnesses.
