rA further object of the invention is to provide a device vof 1 this character which may be readily disassembled for cleaning, lubrication or replacement ofparts.
Other objects and aims of the invention, more Aor less specific than those referred to above, will be in part obvious and in part pointedout in the course ofthe following description of the `elements, combinations, arrangements of parts and application of principles, constitutingthe in vention; and the scope of protection contemplated will be indicated in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawing.. wherein I have,
illustrated preferred embodiments of my invention,
Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view taken substantially on line yI-I of Figure ,2.,
ure 2, z
Figure .4 .is .a horizontal sectional view .taken on the line 4-4 of Figure 3,-.the pressure cap mounted upon the lower endzof .the device being omitted,
Figure 5 is a vertical sectionalV view taken through the lower end ofgthe device, rcertainof the parts beingshownin vertical elevation, illustrating the means for releasing the compressed air inthe reservoir, and
Figure 6 is an enlargedysectional `elevation illustrating the check valve mechanism.
Referring nowy to the i drawing wherein similar reference characters. refer to similar parts throughout theseveral views thereof, the reference numeral ID denotes an elongated circular casing which forms a reservoir for, 4the compressed air and `I I denotes aremovable head'for the reservoir,; said head beingsecured ,in position byA means of stay or tiel-ods I2." Thesegtie rods,V asshown in;-Fig.ure 3, are screw threaded into the head, extending Vvertically through the pressure reservoir and/ through ahead I4 vrmounted upon the.lower end, of :thercylinder l0; nuts. I3 being g mountedgupon the rods. v:I2 wherebybothof the heads II `and I4 -aresecurely clamped upon thev upper and lower ends of the cylinder It):4 If. desired,suitable gaskets may be. employed v between theheads Vand the. ends of the cylinder to insure amant-,tight chamber within the cylinder I0.
The reference numeral I5 `denotes an air outlet pipe which-is extended into the reservoir, the upper ends of which is provided with a valve seat I6,1adapted to, receive a valve II which is normally .seated on the seat, I6 -to effect a closure of. the outlet' pipe IE5.A
Thisoutlet pipe isv secured to the bottom head l. I4 by any. suitable means, in the present instance .Y it is shown as being pressed in.
Theoutlet pipe is .threaded exteriorlyatv its lower-end so asy to receive a screw threaded sleeve of a cap lIpref-erably formed of rubber, the sleeve of .said cap being adapted to be held in an adjusted position as by means of the lock-nuts I9 and 20.4
The purpose of the .capl is to effect a seal in.v the opening of the. conduit to be cleared of obstructions. If desired,`the cap I8 may be re versed .for insertion into the. conduit when it is more convenientl to. be employed.- in this manner.`
The air pump shown herein comprises a barrel 2I rgid1y secured totheA head II in any desired manner and located in the barrel 2| is a pistonA or plunger v22 mounted upon a piston, or a plunger -rod 23 which extends upwardly through the" the l operating handle v24=.-
The reference numeral 25 denotes a checkvalve preferably of the type known as the Schafer valve commonly employed in connection with pneumatic tires. This valve permits air compressed by the action of the pump to be forced into the reservoir at each downward stroke of the pump plunger, but automatically closes to prevent escape of the air from the reservoir.
Referring now to Figure 6 wherein this checkvalve is shown, said valve includes the tube 5l) threaded to engage the lower end of the pump barrel, a nut 5I securing the tube firmly in position.
The exterior of the tube 50 is counter-bored and tapped to receive the threaded member 52, having an extension 53 tapered to provide an air-tight connection with a corresponding taperV provided in the tube.
Through the threaded member 52 extendsa loosely fitted stem 54 to which is rigidly mounted the valve 55 normally resting on the end of the extension 53, the spring 56 resting on a collar 51 abutting the shoulder 58 in the tube.
The stem 54 is axially movable in the collar, and the spring yieldingly pressing the valve 55 of its seat.
Compressed air from the pump depresses the valve and the air is forced through the orifice 6U into the reservoir formed by the casing IU, the valve reseating as the pump plunger moves upwardly. The end of the tube 50 is threaded exteriorly to permit the nut 59 to secure the tube rmly in the stirrup 33.
The outlet pipe I5 is preferably axially aligned with the reservoir and the pump barrel is preferably axially located with respect to the outlet pipe I5. The valve I1, in any event, seats axially with the outlet pipe I5 and is mounted and operated in the following manner:
Slidably mounted upon the pump barrel 2| is a sleeve 26 and rigidly associated with the sleeve 26 is the stirrup 21, the valve I1 being mounted upon a cross member formed upon the lower end of the stirrup.
The valve I1 is loosely mounted on the stirrup so as to permit automatic adjustment to the seat I6 as by means of the screw 28 which passes through the valve, the nut 29 and the Washer 30 securing the valve thereto. ing through the cross-member 3| of the stirrup 21 bottoms in the nut 32, thereby permitting a slight play of the valve I1 with respect to the seat I6.
Extending from the end of the pump barrel 2| is a second stirrup 33 hereinbefore mentioned, through which the check-valve extends as has already been described.
The U shaped lever 34 passes between the end of the sleeve 26 and inside of the bottom member of the stirrup 33. Abutting the stirrup 33 and reacting on the stirrup 31 in which the valve I1 is mounted is the helical spring 35 which operates normally to seat the valve I1 on the end of the outlet pipe I5 and engage the sleeve 26 and the stirrup 33 with opposite edges of the U shaped lever 34. The free arms of this lever are extended and the stem 36 is swivelled thereto at 31 by means of the cotter pin 38.
The stem 36 extends through the head Il, the gland 39 and packing 40 providing against air leakage from the reservoir.
The button 4I on the end of the stem 36 facilitates the raising of the valve I1 from its seat to release compressed air from the reservoir.
Referring to Figure 5, it will be seen that the The screw 28 passvalve I1 may be raised from its seat either by pulling action on the button 4I as indicated at A, or by pressing the button downwardly as indicated in the dotted lines B. In either case the U shaped lever 34 fulcrums on the crossbar of the stirrup 33 to lift the sleeve 26.
By means of the construction shown and described, the valve I1 is quickly raised from its seat so that the accumulated air in the cylinder is instantly released and discharged through the seal provided by the cap I8 in the conduit containing the obstruction which is to be removed.
The orifice 42 in the head II admits air into the pump barrel as the plunger thereof is forced downwardly and a pressure indicator 43 is mounted upon the head II and is in communication with the air of the reservoir within the cylinder I0 through the conduit 44.
In using my improved device, it is desirable to insert the cup I8 either in the position shown in the drawing or in a reversed position as hereinbefore described, in the mouth of the conduit containing the obstruction. It is desirable that the space within the conduit below the cup be lled with water which is, of course, usually the case unless the obstruction permits a slow seepage of water through the conduit. If this seepage occurs, the conduit should be refilled with water below the cup and the cup itself should be emersed in water above the edge which forms the seal in the conduit from which the obstruction is to be removed.
Inasmuch as water is not compressible, the sudden release of the compressed air in the reservoir acts as a water hammer or ram to permit a sudden blow to the obstruction, the force of said blow being determined by the amount of air pressure accumulated within the reservoir. Thus the stoppage is removed instantly and completely without damage to the trap, pipes or other ttings.
The sudden release of the air pressure as above described is affected by merely compressing or raising the rod 26 through the instrumentality of the button 4I It will accordingly be seen that I have provided a construction Well adapted to attain, among others, all the ends and objects above set forth in a most facile manner.
As many changes could be made in this construction without departing from the scope of the following claims, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanying drawing shall be interpreted as illustrative only and not in a limiting sense.
