claim 1s:
1. The combination? with a Wheel rotatably'mounted upon a support and provided with buckets opening around the periphery thereof, of a distributing chamber comprising an arcuate shaped receptacle having an inner Wall adapted to be positioned to close the open ends of the buckets, said well being provided withopenings establishing communicetion between said buckets and chainber and transversely extending flanges provided by the cut out portions of the openings' for directing the contents of the distributing chamber into the buckets.
2. The combination with a. wheel, of a frame rotatably supporting said Wheel, said frame including bars arranged transversely of said wheel, an arcuate distributing chamher and adjusting screws carried by said bars and engageable With said chamber for adjustably securing the latter against the periphery of the Wheel.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
