HORACE LIVINGSTON WALKER, OF OTTUMIVA, IOWA.
WAT E R- MOTOR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 321,262, dated June 30, 1885.
Application filed September 17, 1884.
To aZZ whom it may 007000770..-
Be it known that I, HORACE L. WALKER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Ottumwa, in the county of Wapello and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in WVater-Motors, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a side elevation of my improved water-motor, showing the main shaft and frame in section. Fig. 2 is a part cross-section through my motor, showing the one half of it and one of the pumps in section.
Similar letters refer to corresponding parts.
A represents what is designed to be an overshot water-wheel, from the motion of which, when a sufficient supply of water is supplied to it, the other parts of my motor derive their movement.
B is the main shaft, made hollow and firmly secured to the center casting, O, which also forms the hub of the water-wheel A, to which it is rigidly connected by the arms or Spokes a a.
D D is the framing of the machine, which runs in bearingsb b on the main shaft B, which is provided with the packing boxes or glands b 1), connecting it with the suction and deliveringpipes.
E E are pumps attached to the center casting, 0. Four of these .are shown in the drawings, but any other number may be used. Each pump is provided with a piston and a piston-rod, 6, working through a stuffing-box in the cover of the pump. Each piston rod e is provided with a yoke, e, in which a block, 6", works and receives motion from a crank, F, the crank-pin of which passes through it.
G G are rings attached to the arms of the water-wheel, and form bearings for the crankshaft, on the ends of which are fastened the levers f f, provided with weights f f. Each pump E is provided, further, with complete sets of suction and delivery valves, so that they may be double acting, of which the suction valves H are connected with the space h in one part of the center casting, G,
(No model.)
by the pipes h, and the delivery-valves I are connected with the space in the corresponding opposite part, i, of the center casting, O, by the pipe i.
The two spaces h and i in the center casting, 0, are separated from each other by a partition-wall, J.
The weights f f, attached to the ends of the levers f f, always keep the said levers hanging downward by the action of gravity. The cranks F are connected to the opposite ends and upon opposite sides of the levers f. f to that to which the weights f f are connected, so that said cranks will change their positions with reference to the water-wheel A exactly as influenced by the said Weights, and being connected to the pump pistonrods and pistons by the yokes 6, each pumppiston will be at the top of its pump when vertical in the top half of the water-wheel, .will be at the bottom of its pump when vertical in the lower half of the water-wheel, and will be in various midway positions when between these two points. Consequently each pump-crank F will make one entire revolution to each complete revolution of the waterwheel, and will draw a supply of water from the suction-pipe K and deliver the same up the delivery-pipe L.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-- 1. In a water-motor, the combination of a Water-wheel, A, with a series of double-acting pumps, E, which rotate with it, the weights f, attached to levers f, for working said pumps, and cranks F, connected to the pump-pistons and to said levers, substantially as described and shown, and for the purpose set forth.
2. In a water-motor, the combination of the hollow center casting, 0, divided centrally by the partition J, with the water-wheel A, of which it forms the hub, with the pumps E, and the cranks F, connected to the pumppistons and to the said wheel, substantially as described and shown.
3. In a Water-motor, the combination of rings G, water-wheel A, to the arms of which they are attached, pumps E, provided with 100 yokes e, cranks F, and levers f, provided with having connection with the pump-pistons weights f, substantially as described and through the cranks F, substantially as shown shown. and specified. I
4. In awater-motor, the combination of HORACE LIVINGSTON WALKER. 5 the packing-boxes b with the hollow shaft .Vitnesses: V
B, center casting, 0, divided by partition J, J. M. LAMME,
pipes h and i, pumps E, and water-wheel A, WV. R. LAMME.
