UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.

ALOIS M. KONIAKOWSKY, OF ELLINGEN, TEXAS.

AIR-MOTOR.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 322,616, dated July 21, 18.85.

Application filed November 10, 1884. (No model.)

'To a/ZZ whom it may concern,.-

Be it known that I, ALoIs M. KoNTAKowsKY, of El1ingen,-in the county of Fayette and State of Texas, have invented a new and Improved Air-Motor, of which the following is a full,A clear, and exact description.

My invention consists in an air-motor of novel construction and arrangement operated by compressed air, as hereinafter described and claimed.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specilication, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the iigures.

Figure 1 is a sectional elevation of the engine. Fig. 2 is a sectional plan view of the same, and Fig. 3 is a detail section on line xx of'Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a central cross-section of the valve.

A is the cylinderof the engine; a, thepistonrod, and b the head thereon.

c is the valve-chamber, connecting to the cylinder by ports c.

d is the valve.

e is a plate rigidly and permanently connected to the valve, and having ports e and ez that in the movement of the valve arebrought opposite the air-inlet port a and outlet-ports a in the side of the valve-chamber.

B is a single-acting air-pump having avalve, f, in its piston-head g, 'and a valve, h, at one end fitted in an inlet to a receiver, @,for compressed air. f

D is adouble-acting exhaust-pump provided with eduction-valves t' z' and induction-valves k k, closing passages to which are connected pipes Z Z that pass to the outlet-ports a2 of the valve-chamber c. The piston of pump D consists of three disks, m m m2, on the rod. The latter is fixed on the rod; but the others may be made removable, in order to provide more space in both ends of t-he cylinder, if required. When made removable, screw-nuts or any other suitable means may be employed to secure them to the rod.

The piston-rod a of the engine and the rod pump B may be used alone for charging thev receiver C. The means of connection is in this instance a detachable pin, x.

p is a beam or lever, also hung on standard o and geared to the lever n by segment-racks g q. The stem of valve d and the piston-rod ofthe pump D are connected to the opposite ends of the lever p.

To charge the receiver C, the pin x is withdrawn, thus releasing lever n from connection with roda of piston b. The lever a is then worked by hand until the desired quantity of air has been forced into receiver O, when the pin x is replaced and pin y removed to disconnect lever n from rod of piston g.

In the operation of the engine the compressed air from the receiver C passes to the valve-chamber by a pipe, r, and by movement of valve-plate e is directed to the opposite ends of the cylinder alternately. panded air at each stroke is drawn out by the exhaustpump D through pipes Z, alternately.

This motor is well adapted for use for driving machinery of various kinds-for example, churns, forge-blowers, lathes, and drills.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. The air-motor, consisting of engine A, singleacting aiiypump B, air-receiver C, and the double-acting exhaust-pump D, with4 the valvesv and connections, as specified, all combined for operation as set forth.

2. The combination of the levers n p and segments q, and with the air-engine A, airpump B, and exhaustpump D, for operation as specified.
