IMPROVEMENT IN WATER-will EELS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 23,628, dated April 12, 1859.
To all whom t may concern,.-
Be it known that I, PAUL WAGNER, of the city of Buffalo, in the count-y of Erie and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tater-Wheels; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, in which- Figure I is a perspective View of my iinproved water-wheel, part of the case being removed to show the construction of the Wheel. Fig. Il is a top plan of the same. Fig. III is a plan of the discharge-vents for allowing the water to pass off after having acted on the wheel. Fig. 1V is a vertical section.
Like letters refer to like parts in each of the figures.
A is a case which incloses the wheel. It is covered at the top by the head C, but is left open at the bottom.
B is the iume which supplies water to the wheel. i
D are the buckets of the wheel. They are arranged on the cylinder or drum E. Their lower edges are radial and their upper edges tangential to the cylinder E. Their upper edges are also parallel to their lower edges.
F is the driving-shaft, which turns in the footstep-bearing J. The drum E is fastened to this shaft.
G are the discharge-vents. Theseare formed by a number of inclined planes or buckets arranged around a cylinder I-I, equal in size to the cylinder E. They are arranged according to the same rule-viz., their lower edges radial and their upper edges tangential to the cylinder. They are inclined directly opposite to the buckets of the water-wheel. They should be less in number than the buckets on the wheel. They are fastened to the case A and do not turn.
I are bed-timbers on which the caseA rests. They also support the footstep-bearing J.
Water being admitted through the flume B into the caseA strikes directly against the buckets D, the buckets G keeping it up toits work and then allowing it to pass olf in such a manner as to prevent all possibility of any back action of the water against the buckets D. The inclined position of the buckets D on the cylinder causes the water which strikes them to exert a lifting force on them lwhich relieves the pressure of the shaft F on the footstep-bearing, and consequently causes the wheel to run with less friction.
I claim- The combination of the buckets D, arranged on the cylinder E, as described, and the stationary inclined planes or buckets G, arranged with reference to the cylinder H and buckets D, as described, the whole being inclosed by the case A, substantially as and for the purposes herein set forth.
PAUL WAGNER. Vitnesses:
JOHN F. BECK, WALTER H. FoRBUsH.
