PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM P. -WALLING, OF ALBANY, WISCONSIN.
MINERAL AND WATER ELEVATOR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 249,425, dated Novembers, 188I.
Application filed June 2,1881. (ModeL) v T To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM I. WALLING, of Albany, in the county of Green, and'in the State of Wisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Mineral and VVater Elevators; and I do hereby declare that the following isa full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference to marked thereon, making a part of this specification.
This invention has for its objects to provide an improved means for raising water from wells, elevating minerals from mines, and other I 5 like purposes. These objects I attain by the apparatus and devices illustrated in the accompanying'drawings, in which- Figurel represents a perspective view, showing my device complete. Fig. 2 represents a detailed view of the elevating-carriage and bucket Fig. 3, a top view of the elevating-carriage; Fig. 4, a detached view of a movable tackle-block, over the pulleys of which the elevating-rope passes 5 and Fig. 5, adetached view .of the tackle-block support, by which it is held in position as the carriage and bucket are lowered or elevated perpendicularly.
The letter A indicates an inclined wire track, secured at one end to the wallQB of a house, or to any other suitable support. The said track is supported atiany desirable points by means of grooved brackets O, secured in a frame, D, mounted on apost, E, which is setin the ground or otherwise secured in an upright position.
5 The letter F indicates-an inclined frame extendingover the well G or the vertical shaft of a mine. The said frame is provided with grooved brackets similar to the brackets (J, over which the wireltrack passes, the said track being carried vertically downiinto the well or shaft, where itis passed around the transverse bar H, and then vertically upward, the extremitiesbeing secured to the top of the frame F in such manner as to form a vertical guide for the traveling elevator-earria ge.
The letter I indicates the elevator-carriage, which is mounted on grooved wheels K, adapted to traverse the wire track before mentioned. The said carriage is provided with an open slot, L, the end of whichis beveled toward each side to permit the elevating-rope, which passes into said slot on its way to the elevating-pulleys, to adapt itself to curves in the track. The said carriage is provided with a downward extension, M, to which is secured the bail l\ of the elevator-bucket P. The said carriage is provided with pulleys R, over which the elevating-rope S passes. The letter T indicates a tackle-block, which is provided with pulleys U, over which the ele- 6o vating-rope passes, as clearly indicated in Fig.
2, one end of said rope being securedto the block.-and the other passing to a pulley, Visecured to the wall or support A, and thence downward to a Windlass,W. The letterYindicates an elevated tank, which is provided with a wire frame, Z, adapted to engage the mouth of the bucket" and dump it,
as indicated in Fig. l of the drawings. T
The letter A indicates a forked support, 7
which is secured to the forward part of the frame F, and serves to hold the'tackle-block in proper position when the bucket is being lowered or elevated in the vertical guides in the well or shaft. The carriage, as it passes from the vertical guides on its upward course to the inclined track, engages the tackle-block and carries it with it for the remaining portion of its trip. On its downward course the forked support engages and retains the tackle- 8o block while the carriage and bucket are bein g lowered into the well. From the tank extends a pipe, B, to a suitable receptacle for the water.
The tank Y may be hinged to its forward supports in such manner that it'will be tilted when the bucket is drawn up, so as to dump the contents, if desired.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters 0 Patent, is
1. The inclined wire track secured at one end to a suitable support passing over suitable brackets, and'extending vertically downward and then upward in a well or shaft, forming 5 guides for'a traveling carriage, the wheels of which operate between the guides or double track, substantially as specified.
2. The travelingcarriage slotted as described, I and provided with pulleys over which the ele- 10o 5 slot the sides of which are: beveled outwardly vating-rope passes, and the bucket secured to In testimony whereof I affix my signature, said carriage, substantially as and for the purin presence of two witne ss'es,'this 17th day of to poses specified. May, 1881.
3. The traveling carriage having an open WM P WALLING attheir forward ends to permit the rope to work Witnesses: properly as the carriage passes curves in the G. J. MORGAN, track, substantially as specified. D. H. MORGAN.
