GEORGE J'. S'IOCIKER, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
LIQUID-COOLING TOWER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 13, 1916.
Application filed March 26, 1914. Serial No. 827,260.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Gronon J. STOCKER, a citizen of theUnited States of America, residing in the city of St. Louis and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Liquid-Cooling Towers, of which the following is a specification:
This device-relates to an improvement in liquid cooling towersfand has for its primary object to provide amaximum amount of exposed surface for the travel of the liquid to be cooled.
Another object is to provide an improved way of bracing the checker work. Other and further objects will appear in the specification, and be specifically pointed out in the appended claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawings exemplifying the invention, and in which,
Figure 1 is a vertical section of this improved tower. Fig. 2 is a vertical section taken on the line IIII, Fig.1.. Fig. 3 is an enlarged horizontal section taken on the line IIIIII, Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is an enlarged reception'of the ends of cross pieces 16 and 17. These cross pieces are mere slats set perspective view, partly in section, of a portion of the checker work, and showing the vertical slats mounted therebetween.
v Referring to the drawings: 1 designates the foundation of this improved tower. Formed in said foundation is a pit or well 2. Mounted on said foundation 1, and around the well 2 are the sills 3, said sills having. The base uprights 41 supported thereon. portion 5 of the tower has formed in the end Walls 6 thereof circular openings 7, each of said openings being for the reception of a fan 8, said fan being secured to the horizontal shaft 9 which is mounted lengthwise of the base portion 5 in the bearings 10. Mounted lengthwise in the base portion 5 are a series of vertical partitions I 11, Sand partitions preferably extending from the sills 3 to a point above the fans 8.
The vertical walls 12 of the checker work portion 13 of the tower have mounted on the inside thereof "vertical strips 14, said strips being placed at equal distances apart forming spaces 15, said spaces being for the up on edge and compose the checker ,work 13. When the checker work is being-constructed in the tower, a layer or section of the cross pieces 16 is engaged in the spaces the liquid is drawn ofl".
16 and 1 layer 17 and so on until the checker work is built up to the approximate height shown in Fig. 1. Vertical slats 18 are then inserted in the squares 19 formed by the cross pieces 16 and 17, said slats being the length of the height of the checker work 13. Said slats 18 are arranged obliquely in the squares 19. southe edges of said slats will impinge the corners of said squares. As these slats Will snugly fit the squares of the checker work, they will serve as a reinforcement to 1 the checker work, and will firmly bind said checker work together.
Mounted above the checker work 13 are a series of troughs 20, one only being shown. These troughs extend in series across the Width of the tower. Mounted above said troughs 20 is a receiving trough 21 whichis for the reception of the heated liquid to be cooled.
In the operation of this liquid cooling tower, heated liquid, received by the trough 21 is discharged through the discharge pipes 22'into the troughs 20; said troughs 20, in turn, dischargingon to the checker work 13. The fans 8 are then put in motion, and as the liquid runs down. the checker work,
said "fans will draw air through the cir-' cular openings 7 into the base portion 5, and between the partitions 11. Then as the outlet 23 is on top. of the tower, the air will be forced upwardly through the checker work and through the outlet 23.
A portion of the liquid, when traveling -downwardly through the checker work,
will drop from section to section of the cross pieces16 and 17. Whereas, the liquid that engages the upper end of the vertical slats 18 will travel down said slats their full length. And What does not drip between the partitions 11 will engage the walls of said partitions and travel theredown, and Will be received by the well 2 from which The li uid that "engages the cross pieces will also run down the walls of the partitions 11. The vertical slats 18, which extend the full length of the checker work, will provide a greater cooling area bottoms of the vertical slats 18 will cause a.
greater amount of liquid from said slats to engage the sides of said partitions as it is descending. The vertical slats 18 also serve to firmly brace the checker work together in view of said slats extending the full length of the sections of cross pieces 16 and 17 from which the checker work is constructed. It is obvious that the draft of air forced up through the tower by fans will cool the liquid.
What I claim is:
1. In a liquid cooling tower, horizontall arranged checker work, said checker work being composed of layers of slats set up on edge, each of said layers adapted to rest on another and at right angles thereto, and an obliquely arranged vertical slat located in each opening formed by said checker work, each of said vertical slats adapted to engage all of the vertically alined openings of said checker work, each of said slats adapted to engage diagonally opposing corners of the openings in said checker work.
2. In a liquid cooling tower, horizontally arranged checker work, said checker work being composed of layers of slats set up on edge, each of said layers adapted to rest on another at right angles thereto, thereby forming vertically alined openings, and an obliquely arranged vertical slat located in each set of vertically alined openings, each of said vertical slats adapted to be engaged in diagonally opposing corners of the openings of said checker work, said vertical slats adapted to bind said layers of said checker work. v
3. In a liquid coolingtower, horizontally arranged checker work, oblique vertical slats placed within the squares formed by said checker work, and vertical partitions arranged beneath said checker work, said vertical slats adapted to extend from the top of said checker work to said partitions thereby binding said checker work.
slats placed within the squares formed by said horizontal partitions, said vertical slats extending the length of said partitions to bind said slats and said partitions together.
5. The combination in'a tower, of means for introducing a current of cool air at the base thereof, means of introducinga liquid to be reduced in temperature at the top thereof, a series of checker work partitions on the interior of said tower, and an oblique vertical slat placed within each square formed by said checker work, said vertical slats adapted to extend the length of said checker work to form continuous pathways for the introduced liquid.
6. The combination in a tower, of means for introducing a current of cool air at the base thereof, means of introducing a liquid to be reduced in temperature at the top thereof, a series of checker work partitions on the interior of said tower, oblique vertical slats placed within the squares formed by saidchecker work, and vertical partitions arranged beneath said checker work, sald vertical slats extending from the top of said checker work to said partitions.
