8 Claims. (Cl. 30215) My invention relates to an improvement in jet Similar reference characters refer to similar pumps and more particularly to such a pump parts throughout the several views; adapted for use in connection with a hydraulic A device embodying my invention as shown in excavating apparatus and the like. Fig. 1 may be best understood by a consideration 5 Jet pumps heretofore have been used in eonof the diagrammatic sketches shown in Figs. 4, 5'

equally displaced about the periphery of the suction tube b, the jet action occurring within the tube 1) is similar to that shown in Fig. 6 except that the provision of six slots m, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3, will cause a correspondingly larger number of radial blades offluid than those" shown in Fig. 6 resulting from the use of .but
four jets.
A jet pump constructed in accordance with my invention will give a jet in which the extent and range of turbulence is considerably less than in conventional types of jets, and by the decreasing 0f the amount and range of the'turbulence I have found that the efficiency of the entire pump is greatly increased. a
I also have found that a jet constructed in accordance with my invention will produce a higher vacuum than any of the conventional forms of jets with which I am familiar. It also has been found that a jet pump embodying my invention when used for gravel or other grittymaterial, tends to keep the abrasive substances in the fluid suspendedin the fluid in such a manner as to reduce the scour on the surface of the discharge pipe 0. It also has been found that a jet pump embodying my invention may be used successfully on a straight run of pipe as a booster pump.
While I have illustrated and described one embodiment of my invention, it is apparent that various changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention, and I do not wish to be limited to the precise details of construction asherein set forth, but desire to avail myself of all changes within the scope of the appended claims. 4
