IMPROVEMENT IN WATR-ELEVATORS- Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 129,887, dated July 30, 1872.
I, J AMES J vHAMILTON of Oonnersville, Fayette county, `State of diana, have in vented a certain new and useful Pumping Attachment to Locomotives, of which the following is a specilication:
Nature and Objects of the Intention.
` water-stations of railroads, which are liable to freeze up. My invention further consists in the provision, upon the shaft of the combined engine and pump of a crank and wrist for the attachment of the rod of a lever-pump securedl in a cistern at a water-station for the purpose of enabling the combined engine to pump from deeper `water-levels than is possible by-suctioni7 Description of the Accompanying Drawing.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a locomotive with my combined engine and pump attached. Fig. 2 is an end elevation of a portion of the locomotive attached to a pump permanently secured in a well or cistern at 'the side of a railroad track. l
General Description.
A is the body of the locomotive, and `B a special frame for supporting my combined en` gine andl pump. Thecombined engine and pump is composed of steam-cylinder'O, pump D, crank-shaft E, with suitable slides and rod- .connectiona The engine selected for illustration is Of the oscillating description; but any other varietymay be adopted. The engine is connected, by suitable passages in the trunnions, with the steam-space and chimney of the locomotive for necessary supply and exhaust of steam, respectively. The pump has flexible hose F attached to it, to be thrown into a well Yor cistern when the locomotive is standing, tok act as a suction in supplying the tender with water from the cistern of a waterstation. A flexible hose, Gr, is also attached to the discharge-chambenof the pump, which is kept in constant communication with the tender. In some cases the cistern of the water-station, owin g to the depth of the water, or for other reasons, must necessarily be supplied with a permanent pump, H, whose discharge-pipe I 'is adapted to discharge the water by gravity, through suitable hose, into the tender. Connection is made to my combined engine and pump from this cistern-pump by means of the provision of a crank and wrist, J K, or shaft E, on which the permanent rod Lof the pump may be coupled when the locomotive is at rest. rllhe rotation of the shaft E gives motion to the pump and elevates the water to the discharge I, from whence it runs into the tender, as before stated.
Claims.
tion with a pump inthe cistern of a water-V station, as and for tliepurpose specified.
