JOHN G. HAGLOCK, F STERLING, ILLINOIS.
AIR-COOLING macnmn.
Specification of Letters Patent.
- Patented Oct. 24;, 1916.
Application filed September 25, 1915." Serial No. 52,562.
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, JOHN G. HAGLOCK, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sterling, in the county of Whiteside and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Air-Cooling Machines, of which the following is a specification.
My invention-pertains to air-cooling machines, and is specially designed for reducing the temperature of a room the atmosphere of which has become uncomfortably hot. This is accomplished by causing a constant circulation of quantities of water in small particles in the path of the current of air from an electric fan or other aermotor. It is generally conceded that the operation of an electric fan has-little effect other than keeping the air in circulation, without reducing the temperature thereof, whereas by the use therewith of my device the atmospheric conditions of a room can be changed from that of excessive heat to a very comfortable one in a short time.
In machines of this class it has been usual to have the water circulating devices actuated-by a separate power from that which operates the fan, but in my invention the construction is such as to render the machine self-operating whenever a current of air is passing therethrough. I
While the machine is simple in construction, and can be-easily and cheaply produced, itpossesses at the same time a maximum of efficiency, as will more fully appear from the following specification.
In the drawings :'Figure 1 is a plan view of my device, with the shell 11, removed. Fig. 2 is an end view thereof. Fig. 3 is a cross-section on the broken line w-a: of Fig. 1.
1 representsja shallow pan or tank in the ends of which are secured supports 2, in which is journaled a shaft 3. Near the ends of the shaft 3 are fixed thereto circular plates 4, united by a plurality of rods 5, and projecting outwardly from said plates 'are arms or spokes 6, the outer ends of support a pair of circles7, united by a plurality of small rods 8, which-rods are disposed diagonally of the shaft 3. .1.
, Between the rods 5 and 8 are tightly held radial planes'lg', formed of some kind of fabric which will quickly absorb water. The fabric is preferably secured in place by winding it in and out upon the rods in form which of triangles, the bases of the triangles comprising short sections 10 of the fabric. There is thus formed a drum-shaped device of sufficient diameter to project a short distance into the panl.
v The sides of the pan 1 are projected up- .wardly into a shell 11, which encircles the 'planes, and at one end of the machine is an aermotorlQ, by means of which a current of air is forced through the machine, longitudinally thereof.
By reason of the'rods 8 being set in diag onal positions the outer parts of the planes 9 are twisted into a semi-spiral form, and
the force of. the air-current against such crossing and recrossing the path of the air- This constant circulation of the.
current. water in the path of. the-air operates to thoroughly moisten the same in its passage and greatly reduces the temperature thereof. At the same time the air is thoroughly washed and cleansed from particles of dust and other impurities contained therein. shell 11 confines the current of air in passing through the machine and also aids in directing the drops of water back into the tank.
While the end sections 10 are not essential to the operation of my machine, they greatly increase the capacity thereof, by engaging and raising an additional volume of water from the tank 1, carrying the same to the upper part of the machine, and discharging it downwardly between two adjacent planes 9. This also insures at all times a presentaordinary temperature will be sufficient.
If desired, the arms 6 can be provided;
with aermotor blades, to receive the current of air and assist in rotating the drum, but such provision is not considered to be necessary, as the machine is operative with out the same. In such construction the The a resulting in a maximum cooling" If desired the water in the tank 1 planes 9 would be in line with the shaft 3 instead of diagonally disposed.
What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent'of the United States, is:
1. A machine of the class described,v comprising a Water receptacle; a shaft 'rotatably mounted above said receptacle; a plurality of rods encircling said shaft in proximity thereto; end pieces supported from said shaft; a plurality of rods secured in said end pieces and disposed diagonally of the line of said shaft; and strips of fabric uniting said inner and outer rods and forming a plurality of radial planes.
2. A machine of the class described, com-' prising a Water receptacle; a shaft rotatably mounted above the same; a plurality of rods encircling said shaft in proximity thereto; end pieces suppoited from said shaft; a plurality of rods secured in said end-pieces and disposed diagonally of the line of said shaft; and a strip of fabric uniting said inner and outer rods so as to form a series of radial planes with end sections. uniting adjacent pairs of such planes.
In testimony whereof I afliX my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
