DRY-PIPE VALVE.
Application filed April 28, 1821. Serial No. 465,030.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that we, HARRY M. NACEY and iiioHAnL F. AHEARN, citizens of the United States, and residents of Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Dry-Pipe Valves, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in dry pipe valves enclosed in a housing connecting an. underground water main or branch with an automatic sprinkling system, the piping for which is filled with air when exposed to a freezing temperature because of insufiicient heating facilities therefor, and particularly when located in cold storage vaults, open driveways, loading platforms, etc., the pressure of which air and a number of devices maintains the valve in its operative seated position against. the pressure of the water in the main, and in which heretofore mechanical devices, pure and simple, have heretofore been solely relied upon for tripping the valve following the discharge of air from the sprinkling system from the unseating of any one of a number of sprinkling heads, due .to the melting of their fusible link.
The object of our invention broadly stated, is to successfully utilize a column of mercury expediting the seating of a dry pipe valve of any construction, and eliminating the possibility of delayin its unseating from rust, deposits of sediment or other foreign matter in the joints of the locking and unlocking devices therefor, which is otherwise liable to occur, and particularly, when, as heretofore, mechanical devices are exclusively employed for controlling the unseating of the valve. 7
More specifically, stated, the object of our invention is to provide a means by which a column of mercury may be practically and successfully utilized for discharging water from the water main into the valve housing in advance of and following the unseating of the valve and until the level of the water therein operates to disconnect the its seat. I
A further object of our invention is to provide a dry pipe valve and disconnectible locking devices therefo r, and adapted, on the unseating of the valve, to be instantly moved out of the path of the currents of water passing directly from the water main through the valve housing into the piping of a dry pipe system, and whereby there is 'fI'OlTlllllG beginning a free and unobstructed flow of the water from the main into and through the pipes for such a system.
l Vith these ends in view, our invention finds embodiment in certain features of novelty in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts by which the said objects are attained, all as hereinafter fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings and more particularly pointed out in the claims.
In said drawings,
Fig. 1 illustrates, in vertical section, a dry pipe valve structure in which our in vention and inventions find their embodiment. v i
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same, with the upper portion of the valve housing removed; and i .Fig. 3 is a detail section taken on the line 8-3 of Fig. 2. V
The housing 4: for the valve is provided at one side with a hand-hole cover 5 secured and tightened in its closed position by a number of nut- bolts 6, 6, passing therethrough and through flange 7 of the housmg, and, as usual, the upper end opening thereof is connected with the dry pipe 8 spective flanges 15 and 16 .of the boss 12 and r the water main or branch 13.
The inner end of the boss 12 is provided with a seat for the valve, neXt below which, and extending through the boss, is an alarm opening 18, closed when the valve is seated by means of a lug 17 projecting down wardly from the valve into a grooved seat 18 formed in the boss 12.
The inwardly projecting end of the boss 12 has an outward projection20, provided with recesses receiving lugs 21, 21, through which is passed a pivot rod 22 for hinging the valve at one side to the boss, on which projection 20 are spaced parallel lugs 22, 22, receiving an arm 23, passing through which and through the lugs is a pin 24.
Opposing'lever 23 is another lever .25, pivotally secured to the housing by means of lugs 26, -26 ancha' pin 27, eachotv the levers-.23 and 25 "being provided "with :1 lug 5 28, 28, impinging upon the valve lTnext their respectlve, hlnges. Y

connection with the locking devices therefor, and whereupon the valve will be instantly lifted by the water pressure of the main to contact with the undersurface thereof and quickly forced to an upright position out of the currents of water ascending through the housing into the piping for an automatic sprinkling system.
The water main or branch pipe 13 is, as usual, provided with a gate (not shown) located substantially below the housing for the dry pipe valve and which is closed immediately following the completion of the active operation of the sprinkling system, the water from which is discharged through the opening 18, and may be through a drain valve in the pipe 46 which is not shown, but the location of which is indicated in Fig. 1.
Following the discharge of the water from the housing to a plane below the dry pipe valve seat, the cover 5 is takenoif, followed by moving the valve to. its seated position and connecting the locking devices therefor in their operative position and whereupon the cover 5 is again secured in its seated position, and whereupon and following the restoration or substitution of fusible link valves in their operation in the piping of the system, air is again introduced therein at a pressure sufiicient for the mercury to lift the float 52 and force its needle valve 50 to a seated position.
So far as we are aware, our invention is the first to provide for the successful use of a float in a dry pipe valve housing actuated by rising water therein from any source, and particularly which provides a means by which a column of mercury may be and is adapted, through the operation of a float, for controlling the unseating of a valve when directly opposed to the water pressure in a main or branch therefrom.
In conclusion, it is now to be observed that, so far as we are aware, our invention is the first to provide locking devices of any construction by which their disconnection is practical and possible in advance of the valve being unseated .by the pressure of water opposed thereto, or in which the look I ing levers are propelled away from contact with the valve out of the path of the currents of water forcibly ascending through the valve housing into the piping of an automatic sprinkling system.
