JAMES S. ARNOLD, OE NEAR ROANOKE, TEXAS.
WELL-BUCKET.
PECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 320,835, dated June 23, 1885. Application filed January 17, 1885. (No modell To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that l, JAMES S. ARNOLD, re-
siding near Roanoke, in the county of Denton and State of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Buckets for Bored lVells; and l do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, referencebein g had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
Figure l of the drawings is a representation of this invention, and is a perspective view of the top of the well and of the buckets. The lower portion of the well is shown in section. Fig. 2 shows a vertical section taken through the two buckets. Fig. 3 is a detail view to show the manner of letting the water out of the upper bucket. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the forked trough.
This invention relates to improvements in well-buckets, its object being to save power and time in drawing water; and it consists in the construction and novel arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the 'appended claims.
Reference, being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, A represents a well, having properly iixed and arranged at its top the pul ley or roller a, operated by a winch or other proper means, in the usual manner.
B represents the rope passing over the pulley a, the said rope being of knitted material to prevent it from twisting. One end of the rope B is connected to the bail c of the upper or interior bucket, C, and the other end has attached to it the chain D, made of galvanizedwire links d, l[he chain being about five feet long.
E is the exterior bucket, cylindrical in shape, of suitable length, and having at its lower end the upwardly-opening valve or valves e e. The said lower end is formed into a frustum of a cone, with its base upward, and has on the outer side of its bottom plate a transverse brace rod or plate, e', from which rises the rod e, which passes through the said bottom plate and stands in the axis of the bucket, its upper end, which projects above the bucket, having an eye, e3, formed upon it, in which the lowest link d engages, the end of said link being hooked for that purpose. There are, preferably, two valves e, similar in shape, and lying upon the bottom plate of the bucket E, which plate acts as a valve-seat.
C is the upper or interior bucket, similar in shape to and fitting within the bucket E. c is the bail of said bucket, fixed to the top plate thereof and provided with the transverse friction-roller c', against which the links d lie, so that the bucket O can be raised or lowered without too much loss of power.
c2 c2 are openings in the top plate of the bucket G to allow the entrance of air. The lower end of the bucket C is made into the frustum of a cone, and has surrounding it the flange-washer c3, made of leather or other suitable material, to prevent water rising between the two buckets.
c4 c4 are upwardly-opening valves in the bottom of the bucket C, similar to the valves ce.
F is a tube rising centrally from the bottom plate of the bucket O, and standing in the axis of said bucket. The rod c2 passes through said tube, and is surrounded by a coil-spring, f, having on its lower end a washer, f', of leather or other suitable material. The said washer slides on the rod e2 and stands outside of the bucket C, so that when the latter is inserted into the bucket E the washer is forced against its lower end and prevents water from rising in the tube F.
The manner in which the invention is operated 'is as follows: When the pulley a is turned, the bucket E descends into the water and becomes filled through 'the valves c e, while the bucket C rises and discharges the water received from the bucket E. The latter then rises and the former descends and passes into it, and is filled with water by means of the valves c4 c4. The bucket C then rises and discharges its water, while the bucket E descends again into the well and is filled. By this construction both time and labor are saved in raising water.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination of the bucket E, provided with the valves e c and axial rod e2, with the bucket C, provided with the valves c4L c4 ICO bucket and the lower external bucket, of the plate e', the rod e2, Washerf, the tube in the upper bucket, spiral spring arranged therein, 15 the chain D, pulley c, and the ropes B, all adapted to operate substantially as speeied.
In testimony whereof I afx my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
JAMES S. ARNOLD.
