PUMPING APPARATUS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 9, 1916.
Application filed November 5, 1913. Serial No. 799,360.
To all whom it may concern I Be it known that I, BENJAMIN C. DIL- LoN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Taylors Store, in the county of Franklin and State of Virginia, have invented new and useful Improvements in Pumping Apparatus, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a pumping apparatus for domestic or other service in pumping or raising water to a determined point from a distant spring, well or other source of supply, the object of the invention being to provide a simple, eflicient and inexpensive type of apparatus for this purpose which may be operated by hand or power.
A further object of the invention is to provide a pumping apparatus embodying a pump at the source of supply, operating devices at the source of supply and delivery point, a motion transmitting connection be tween said operating devices, and springs acting in conjunction with the operating devices which are adapted to be tensioned on movements thereof, so that the power of the springs may be utilized to assist in the pumping action.
The invention consists of the features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts herein fully described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings in which Figure 1 is a view in elevation of apumping apparatus embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a view on an enlarged scale of the operating mechanism at the delivery point. Fig. 3 is a sectional elevation of the pump and operating mechanism at the source of supply. Fig. 4 is a view showing a modified type of operating mechanism at the delivery point employing as its source of energy a motor.
Referring to the drawings, 1 designates a well, spring or other source of water supply, and 2 a tank or other receptacle at the receiving point. Suitably supported upon a platform 3 closing the top of the well is a pump casing 4 communicating with a cylinder 5 submerged in the water in the well, in which cylinder operates a piston 6, operated by a reciprocating rod 7 extending upwardly through the casing 4: and a flow pipe 8 connecting said casing with the pump cylinder. The pump casing 4 is provided with a discharge spout 9 through which the water elevated by the pump discharges into an underground conducting pipe 10 leading to the tank or other receptacle 2 at the delivery point. This spout has an outlet 11 for the direct discharge of water, which outlet may be closed by a cut-off 12, controlling the fiow of water between the spout 9 and the pipe 10 and outlet 11, respectively.
Rising from the pump casing tis a bracket arm 13 to which is fulcrumed a hand lever 15, and which is provided with a guide 16 for the upper end of the piston stem 7. The lever 15 is coupled to the rod or stem 7 by a pivotal connection 11, detachably connecting the same, so that the lever may be employed for direct pumping when de sired or disconnected and thrown out of action when the pumping mechanism at the delivery point is designed to be used.
Mounted upon the platform 3 are suitablestandards or frame supports 17, to one of which is fulcrumed one end of a motion transmitting lever 18, which is pivotally coupled at its opposite end to a connecting member 19 attached to the upper end of the piston rod 7, the lever 18 being intermediately connected with the platform or any suitable stationary elements by a flexible connection including a coiled spring 20. When the lever 18 is elevated in the lifting action of the pump piston and rod the spring 20 is elongated and tensioned, so that it will exert its contractile energy to actuate the piston on its subsequent down stroke. One end of an operating cable 21, preferably of wire, is also coupled to the connection 19 or to the adjacent end of the lever 18, and passes adjacent thereto around a direction pulley 22 journaled on another of the standards 17, and from said pulley 22 the cable extends over guide pulleys 23 carried by a post 24 rising from the ground to a second direction pulley 25 mounted upon a standard or upright 26 rising from a suitable platform 27 at the delivery point, which is disposed at a higher elevation than the well or source of supply and at any convenient working distance therefrom. The opposite end of the cable passes downward over the direction pullev 25 and is connected with an operating lever 27 fulcrumed to the standard 26, and to said lever and standard are also connected the opposite ends of a coiled spring 28, which is adapted to be tensioned on the upward or non-working movement of the lever to exert its contractile energy to assist in drawing the lever downward on its working stroke.
It will be evident from the foregoing description that when the lever 27 is forced downwardly the cable 21 will be drawn upon to elevate the lever 18, thus raising the pump piston through the rod 14 to discharge a volume of water through the outlet 9, and that on such motion of the. lever 18 the spring 20 will be tensioned, so that onthe reverse or upward movement of the lever 27 the cable 21 will be slackened and the spring 20 will contact and thereby force the piston rod and piston downward on the nonworking stroke for the ensuing working action. The lever 18 in being drawn downward draws upon the cable 21, thereby assisting in raising the lever 27 on its nonworking stroke, during which the spring 28 is tensioned, so that on the subsequent-or working motion of the lever 27 the spring 28 will contract and assist in the working action, under which the lever 18 is again raised and the spring 20 again tensioned, charges of water thus being forced on each working stroke through the pipe 10 to the tank or receptacle 2 at the delivery point.
In Fig. 4 I have illustrated a modified construction in which the lever 27 is coupled to a working lever 29 actuated by suitable crank gearing from a shaft 30 on which is a belt or pulley 31 connected by a belt 82 with a motor 33, which may be of the gasolene or other internal combustion type, the operation of which will be evident from the foregoing description. This modified construction of working mechanism may be used whenever it is desired toemploy power at the delivery point for the purpose of actuating the pump mechanism.
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the drawings, the construction and mode of operation of my improved pumping apparatus will be readily understood, and it will be seen that the invention provides an apparatus of this character which may be employed for domestic or other service in raising water from a well or other suitable supply to a or less distant point in a simple and economical manner, and which may be operated by hand or power as desired; It will, of course, be understood that while the type of apparatus disclosed is preferred, such changes or modifications therein may be made as circumstances may require, within the scope of the appended claims, without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
