UNITED STATES PATENT iOFFIGE.
MARSHAL WHEELER, OF HONESDALE, PENNSYLVANIA.
GAS-REGULATOR.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 15,028, dated June 3, 1856.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, lWlARsHAL WHEELER, of Honesdale, in the county of Wayne and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and Improved Gas-Regulator; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, Figure 1 being a vertical section in the line y y of Fig. 2; Fig. 2, a horizontal section in the line as 00 of Fig. 1; and Figs. 3, 4L and 5, represent portions of said gas regulator in detail.
Similar letters indicate like parts in all the drawings.
The semicircular compartment A, united to the circular compartment D, by the passage lc, forms the fluid receptacle of my im proved gas regulator. The gasometer E, of said regulator, is suspended within the compartment A, by means of supporting journals g, g, which project fro-m the angles of said gasometer into holes 92, in the supporting hooks Z, Z, that are located near the outer angles of said compartment A, and are sus pended from the upper edge of its sides. A rectangular goose neck (Z, which is made fast to the under side of the top of the gasometer, descends and passes through the passage Zc, into the compartment D, where it curves upward nearly to the top of the closing cover F, of said compartment, and then curves forward and downward into a vertical position. The outer extremity of the goose-neck (Z, is brought to an acute angle at its inner side and has a triangular opening m, in it, as represented in Figs. 1 and 5. At the inner end of said goose-neck, two lateral openings h, it, communicate with the interior of the gasometer.
Underneath the compartment D, is a chamber G, which is connected to the street main by suitable connections, and which communicates with the said compartment D, by means of the vertical pipes c. The said chamber C, is divided by the partition 1", from the chamber B, which is situated immediately below the compartment A, of the fluid receptacle.
The interior of the gasometer E, above the surface of the fluid, communicates with the chamber B, through the medium of the vertical tube f, and the said chamber B, is connected with the gas distributing pipes in a building.
The fluid in the gas regulator, should rise nearly to the upper ends of the tubes 0, c, and f,and must not be permitted to fall so low as to permit the gas to escape through the slot in the side of the cover F, that the goose-neck works in. The gas entering the chamber C, through the tube a, from the street main, rises through the tubes 0, 0, into the'close top of the cover F, of the compartment D, and entering the goose-neck (Z, flows into the gasometer E, and thence through the tube f, into the chamber B, from whence it is conducted through the distributing pipes to the burners. A bent le- Ver 2', rises from the inner side of the gasometer, and the notched horizontal portion of said lever extends outward over the top of the gasometer. By suspending a poise j, in different positions upon the said arm 71, the amount of gas suffered to pass through the regulator, can be accurately governed, and the pressure thereof upon each square inch of the surface of the gasometer, the chamber B, and the distributing pipes, be accurately ascertained.
The buoyancy of the gas within the gasometer will of course cause'it to rise, and this movement of the gasometer, will dip the outer end of the goose-neck cl, into the fluid in the regulator, and thereby diminish the size of its aperture, m, through which the gas flows to the gasometer. Therefore, if there is a very great pressure of gas in the street main, the gasometer of the regulator will rise, and thereby diminish the exposed portion of the aperture m, in the end of the goose-neck at which the gas enters; and if there is a less degree of pressure in the street main, the gasometer of the regulator will fall, and thereby enlarge the exposed portion of the aperture m for the gas to enter the goose-neck and flow on to the gasometer. It will therefore be perceived that the quantity of gas that can enter and pass through the gasometer will depend entirely upon the weight of the gasometer. If the said gasometer is heavily weighted, there will be a corresponding pressure of gas within it, and vice versa. The force of the gas within the street main, will exert no effect upon the gas regulator, unless it should fall below that-at which the regulator is gauged for; and in that case, the gasometer will sink and allow the gas to flow at its reduced force through the regulator to the burners.
Having thus fully described my improved The above specification of my in1pr0vegasregulator, What I claim thereln as new ment in gas regulators, slgned this seventh and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is day of March, 1856.
