IMPROVEMENT lN WATER-WHEELS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 195,897, dated September 4, 1877; application filed August 10, 1877.
- thereof, reference being had to the accompanyin g drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification.
The nature of my invention consists in the construction and arrangement of a waterwheel and chute, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
In order to enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe its construction and operation, referring to the annexed drawings, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of the waterwheel, with a longitudinal section of the chute. Fig. 2 isa perspective view of a portion of the wheel-rim, with bucket and bucket-support.
A represents the fore-bay, supported upon rests G Gr, rising from the foundation F. B is the chute, passing from the fore-bay A, and curved, substantially as shown.
H is the head -block or supports for the wheel-shaft S, on which latter is secured a series of radial T-shaped arms, M, and to these arms the rim E is bolted. This rim is made of boiler-iron, in sections, and bolted on the T-arms, so that any or all the sections may be taken ofi and replaced by others, if desired.
The rim E is on the outside, at suitable intervals, provided with perforated lugs or cars a a, arranged in pairs, and between each pair is hinged a fiat bucket, D, by means of a rod, b, as shown. Each bucket D is, on one side, provided with one or more arms or supports, 0, extending from it at right angles.
As the water passes through the chute B by another, should occasion demand, in very short time.
By the construction of the wheel, it will be seen that when the buckets and sectional rim are removed there is nothing left tohandle but the shaft and arms.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a water-wheel, the combination of the rim E, with perforated ears (1,, and the removable buckets D, hinged between said ears by the rods b, substantially as herein set forth.
2. In a water-wheel, a hinged bucket, D, provided with one or more supports, 0, substantially as herein set forth.
3. The combination, with the wheel S M E, having hinged buckets D, of the chute B, curved, as shown, whereby the water is made to elevate the wheel, substantially as herein set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 9th day of July, 1877.
JAMES W. DE HAVEN.
