' UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICEc ALBERTv E. NIckEESoN AND LEVI c. STEEETEE, 0E ALLEGEENY TOWNSHIP, VENANeo coUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN MEANS FOR PUMPING VlmlELLS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 164,756, dated June 22, 1875; application filed May 3l, 1875.
' description thereof, reference being; had to the accompanying' drawing Ina-king a part of this specification, in which-like letters indicating,` like parts- Figure l is a plan View of our invention. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same, and Fig. 3 is a detailed View of a part thereof.
Our invention is intended as an improvement upon the Letters Patent No. 162,406, granted to us April 20, 1875; and the nature of our invention consists in the construction and arrangement of certain devices for operating two or more independent walking-beams in different directions at the Same time, and thus counterbalance each other, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
A1, A2, A3,and A4 represent the four walking-beams of the pumps operating` in four different wells. B is the band-wheel or equivalent device, driven by a belt, B, from the engine. On the shaft or journal of the bandwheel B is a crank, a, connected by a pitmau,
b, with one end of the walking-beam A', the other end of said walking-beam having the pump-plunger attached to it. From the pitman end of the walking-beam A a rope or chain, d, passes around a pulley, e, and connects with braces G 4depending from the well end of the walkingfbeam A2, the two walkingbeams A1 and A2 being thus operated from the crank a in opposite directions at the same time. The crank c is further, by a pitman, f, connected with one arm of a T-shaped lever, D, pivoted as shown. The two Side arms ot' the lever D are, by rods h 71 connected with L- shaped levers E E, and the other ends of said levers are, by rods z' fi, connected with the ends of the Walking-beams A3 and A4 respectively. These two walking-beams are thus also at the same time operated from the same crank in opposite directions. The connections between the crank a and the Walking-beams a3 t4 are, as will be observed, positive, making their movement certain and reliable.
Other walking-beams may be, in like manner, connected to and operated by the same crank, thus having a series of walking-beams operated from a single crank by one motor, and every pair of beams is always moving in opposite directions, and thus balancing each other.
Having thus fully described our invention, Y
D, rods h h, L-sha-ped levers E E, rods t t', and
walking-beams A3 A4, substantially as and for the purposes herein Set forth.
In testimonyr whereof we have hereunto Set our hands.
ALBERT E. NICKERSON LEVI C. STREETER.
