Description

UNITED STATES PATENT EEICE.
BENJAMN M. VAN DERV'EER, OF CLYDE, NEV YORK.
IMPROVEMENT lNMACHlNERY FOR SUPPLYING TENDERS WITH WATER AT RAILROAD-STAT|0NS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 20,108, dated April 27, 1858.
To @ZZ whom it may concern:
Y Be it known thatl, BENJAMIN M. VAN DEE 'VEER, of Clyde, in the county of Wayne and State of New York, have invented a new and ImprovedWatering-PipeforRailroadStations and other Purposes; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact deserip tion thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, and to theletters of reference marked thereon.
The nature of my invention consists in providing railroad-stations with new and convenient metallic (or any other suitable material) wateringpipesmot subject to frost or decay, and which will enable them to convey water into the car-tanks upon two tracks from each reservoir.
This pipe is so simple in its construction and operation that it is only necessary to refer to the accompanying drawing to enable others fully to understand, make, and use the invention.
Figure l is the water-house, in which is a reservoir containing the water.
A is the main stationary pipe-head entering the building with a shoulder, and is' bolted thereto firmly by means of brace-straps cast thereon, or in any other way most convenient and secure. The part entering the building is reduced in size, so as to correspond and conneet with the pipe from the reservoir.
B is the nipple, around thebase of which is a groove, O, packed with india-rubber or any other good packing material, and is made to exceed in thickness the depth of the groove sufficiently to feel the pressure, when let down, of pipe-head and pipe C. This pipe is used for filling the water-tank of the engine when coming up on the outside or farthest track from the water-house. The head, on which it is screwed, is attached tothe upper part of the main or stationary one entering and fastened to the building by a strong strap and bolthinge. It is operated by means of a weight inside of the water-house, equal, or a little 4 more than equal, to theweight of the pipe and its head, (so as to make a counter or equi poise,) to which is attached a chain or ropepassing out of the building over a pulley and hooks into the ring of the collar or sleeve on the pipe,
pipehead rests, and which moves laterally with and in the orbit of the pipe and its head.
All of which invention is clearly seen and easily comprehended from the drawing.
I disclaim the hinged joint.
That I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
l. The application of the above-described pipes to the water-housesof railroad-stations, or to any other placefor the same purpose.
2. rllhe combination of these pipe-heads and pipes acting upon one bore and nipple, in the manner shown and described.
