Description
(Remodel.) l W. e. ATHBY- PUMP.
No. 263,834;l Patented Sept. 5,1 1882.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
t WILLIAMV C. ATHEY, OF FAYETTE CITY, PENNSYLVANIA.
PUMP.
SPECIFICATION' forming part of Letters Patent No. 263,834, dated September 5, 1882.
appneationaiea May 8,1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM G. ATHEY, a citizen of the United States. residing at Fayette City, in the county of Fayette and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Pumps, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
My invention relates to an improvement in pumps and it consists in an arrangement by which four plungers in as many cylinders at right angles to each other are worked simultaneously by one crank, producing an uniuterrupted stream of water. as will be fully described hereinafter.
The accompanying drawings represent my invention. Figure lis a side elevation, partly in section. `Fig.2is ahorizontal section. Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the removable top.
A represents a vertical cylinder ot' any suitable length, and which has its lower end secured upon the top of the box B. Passing up through the center of this cylinder is the shaft box B, While its upper end is held in positionr by a plate, y, (shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1,)
" just above the discharge spout a.
The upper end of the shaft b is squared, so as to receive a correspondingly-shaped collar, x, which is formed as a part of or Secured to the beveled Wheel c. This wheel c is swiveled in the removable frame e, which rests upon the top of the cylinder A,.and which is provided with the stems l, which extend down upon opposite sides ofthe cylinder and pass through the keepers n l'or the purpose of holding the frame e in position.
The wheel d is secured tothe shaft o, which passes through the frame, and to one of the ends of this shaft is secured the crank G. The frame e, with the gearing, is made readily relnovablfrom and attaehable to different cylinders, so that it can be removed from one pump and applied to another, whereby one set of gearing will answer for a number of different pumps.
The crank-shaft b reaches down to the center of the bottom ofthe box B, where itis pivoted.
0n the crank fare two pitmen., g and h, each jointed to a plunger-rod in one of two adjoining cylinders, E D, and to each of these plunger-rods is attached a slotted plunger-rod, ik, crossing one another at right angles, and riveted, one to each of the plungers., in the remaining two cylinders, C F. Thus by turning the crank Gr the rod b and crank f are set in motion, and through them the plungers in their respective cylinders G D E F. The plungers are perforated plates fitting accurately to the cylinders, with inside coverings of leather or rubber that act like valves and require no packing.
This pumpis mainly intended for coal-boats, but will be found equally useful for s'teamboats or other places where water has accumulated and is to be rapidly removed. Requiring no packing,it is at all times ready for service and delivers water in an uninterrupted stream in quantities proportionate to the diameters of the cylinders.
Having thus described my invention, I claim- Y 1. In a pump, the combination of the cylinder A, crank shaft b, having its upper end squared, frame e, having means for attachment to the cylinder, gearing c d, collar m, and crank, substantially as shown.
2. In a pump, the combination of the cylinder A, box B, and cylinders radiating therefrom with the crankshaft bj', valved pistons which are united together in pairs by suitable rigid connections, and the pitman-rods g h, substantially as described.
3. In a pump, the combination of a seriesof WM. G. ATHE Y.
