UNITED STATES PATENT @errent VILLIAM KEGLER, OF BELLEVUE, IOVA.
CHAIN- PUMP.
SPECIFICATIQN forming part of Letters Patent No. 331,889, dated December 8, 1885,
Application tiled June 1Q, 1884.
T0 all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I', WILLIAM KEGLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bellevue, in the county of Jackson and State of Iowa, have invented new and useful Improvements in Chain-Pumps, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to the class of chainpumps wherein an endless belt of suitable buckets is caused to move upwardly through a tubular stock.
The invention has for its object to provide simple and convenient means by which the stock is held to the casing, to which end it consists in certain novel constructions and combinations of partswhich will he first fully explained, and then pointed out in the claim.
It may be stated that in this class of pumps it is desirable to use metallic stocks, because the constant friction of the chain of buckets in operation produces great wear on wooden stocks. Moreover, the woody taste given to the water by the wooden stock is objectionable. I therefore prefer to make my stock of metal, usually galvanized iron. In this class of pumps it is usual and necessary to make the upper portion or end of the stock larger than the body portion, to permit the water to flow out properly and avoid carrying any of the water over the upper end of the stock. This forms a joint and shoulder in the stock intermediate its upper or enlarged portion and its lower or body portion,at
which point (the `ioint) the stock will usually be the weakest and will need to be braced from lateral strain. Obviously it is quite desirable to avoid the passing of nails or bolts through the stock, because of the tendency to rust produced by such a construction.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a vertical section of my pump. Fig. 2 is a transverse section of same. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of the block. Fig. a is a detail view of the stock, all of which will be described.
The case A, pulley B, and chain C may be of ordinary construction. The stock D is formed with the upper enlarged portion, D', the body portion D2, made smaller than portion D', and an intermediate shoulder, D3, between the portions D D?. The lower end of Serial No. 13l,13A (No model.)
the stock may be slightly flared, as shown, to facilitate the entrance thereinto of the buckets. The block E is formed with a groove, F, having` an upper wing, F', corresponding in transverse form with the transverse section of the portion D of the stock. The lower wing, F2, of groove F conforms to the body portion of the stock` and between wings F F2 there is formed a shoulder, F3, fitted to serve as arest for and to support the shoulder D3 of the pump-stock.
The stock, it will be seen,iits into the groove F of the block, which latter is placed against the inner face of the front board of the case, and the stock and case are secured byastapleclamp, G, looped around the stock and having its arms inserted through the block E and the front board of the case, and secured by turning nuts on them, or in other suitable manner. By this construction, it will be seen, thestock is held to the case and also supported from falling vertically by reason of the support of its shoulder D3 on the shoulder F3 of the block E. It will also be seen that theimprovernent provides a guide-support for the stock below as well as at and above its shoulder.
The spout is fitted into and through suitable openings in the case and block E, and communicates with the upperor enlarged portion of the stock.
Furthermore, it is seen I dispense with the driving of nails, bolts, and similar expedients into or through the stock, and provide convenient construction-the block E and staple-by which the preferred form of stock in this class of pumps may be secured to the ordinary chain-pump case.
It will be noticed that the upper portion of both groove F and the stock are the largest, and that when the parts are in position the shoulder D3 of the stock rests on the shoulder F3 in the groove. In the use of chain-pumps it is frequently desirable to remove the stock for the purpose of cleaning the same out. By my construction this may be easily and safely accomplished in the following manner: If the nuts on clamp G be loosened slightly, so as to release the binding action of the clamp against part D of the stock, the latter is free to be lifted upward out of the well.
IOO
At the same time the shoulders D3 F3 coact to hold the stock from dropping into the Well, should the stock slip from the hands of the operator or be left unclamped for a moment. These shoulders F3 D3 perform another important ofce in holding the stock to the casing when adjusted thereto and prior to the clamping.
By my construction it will be seen the stock and clamp may be applied to the casing and the nuts be turned on the clamp, so as to secure same, so it will fit loosely around the steek. The stock may be then slipped into position through the clamp and its shoulder D3 be rested ou the shoulder F3 of the groove, when the nuts may be tightened up so that they will bind the stock rigidly in position. Thus it will be seen the stock nia-y be conveniently adjusted and clamped in position by one person, and will not require one man to hold the stock in position and another to operate the clamping appliances.
Prior to my invention it was common to secure pump-stocks directly to the casing by a staple-clamp. In some instances the head of the stock has been ensmalled, in others it has been enlarged. In the former case, to remove the stock, the clamp must be entirely removed. In the latter case the enlarged heads are not of uniform diameter, as the spout-opening is formed integral with the side of the head and projects through the casing. Thus to remove the stock the clamp holding it must be removed. Again, the stock being clamped directly against the casing, `drippings will lodge between them and the casing, and very soon the parts will become so wasted away or rottened that the one or the other will have to be replaced. All these objections are overcome by my construction and arrangement of parts, which differs essentially from the foregoing, as specifically pointed out in the following claim.
Having thus described my inventiomwhat I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-
The combination of the casing, the block having in its outer face a groove, F, having large wing F', extended to the upper edge of the block, smaller wing F2, and an intermediate shoulder, F3, the tubular stock D, having upper enlarged portion, D', fittedinto the wing F of groove F, body portion D2, fitted into part F2 of groove F, and a shoulder, D3, resting on shoulder F, and a staple looped around the stock, and having its arms passed through the block E and the case, and secured by nuts. whereby the stock is held in the groove F, and the said stock and block E are .secured to the casing, the enlarged portions of groove F and of the stock being the uppermost,whereby, on loosening the nuts of clamp G, the stock may be drawn upward, and at the same time is held from dropping into the well, substantially as set forth.
