Definitions

  • My invention relates to pressure systems handling liquid, and more particularly to water pressure systems.
  • Water pressure systems to which the present invention particularly relates normally involve a pump having a suction line to a source of water and a discharge line to service. Coupled in the discharge line is a pressure tank for holding a reserve supply of water under pressure of an air cushion.
  • Tank pressure is maintained between a minimum value and a maximum value by a pressure switch which responds to a drop in pressure to the minimum value and starts the pump to replenish water in the tank and build up the pressure therein to its maximum desired value, when the pressure switch again goes into operation to shut down the pump until the pressure in the tank again drops to its minimum value.
  • pressure tanks are normally of substantial size, and consequently are invariably installed above ground, thereby essentially limiting their application in water systems to above ground installations.
  • FIGURE 1 is a schematic view of a water pressure system or the like embodying the present invention, and depicting an above ground installation including a novel and improved pressure device;
  • FIGURE 2 is a schematic view of a water pressure system or the like embodying the present invention and depicting a below ground installation of a novel and improved pressure device;
  • FIGURE 3 is a longitudinal view in section through the form of pressure device depicted in FIGURE 1 as adapted for above ground installation;
  • FIGURE 4 is a similar view in section through the same pressure device as adapted for the below ground installation depicted in FIGURE 2;
  • FIGURE 5 is a view in section through a modified version of the pressure device of FIGURE 3.
  • FIGURE 6 is a graph depicting the general operating characteristics of the pressure device illustrated above.
  • FIGURE 1 the system depicted in FIGURE 1 involves a pump 1 driven by a motor 3 and having an intake end and a discharge end, the intake end being connected to a suction line 5 which may, in a water pressure system, extend down into a well, while the discharge end will connect to a discharge line 9, which may be a pressure line, or a service line which serves one or more outlets controlled by valves or spigots in the conventional manner.
  • a pump 1 driven by a motor 3 and having an intake end and a discharge end, the intake end being connected to a suction line 5 which may, in a water pressure system, extend down into a well, while the discharge end will connect to a discharge line 9, which may be a pressure line, or a service line which serves one or more outlets controlled by valves or spigots in the conventional manner.
  • an airless pressure device 13 embodying the novel and improved features of the present invention, which, for an above ground installation as depicted in the system of FIGURE 1, will cornprise in general, an expansible tube 15 as the principal functioning element, enclosed within a vented housing 17 and having but a single open end 19 functioning both as an inlet and discharge opening.
  • the expansible tube will be connected at such opening by a coupling pipe or fitting 21 leading to the discharge line 9 of the system, which dischargeline may be deemed to include the portion of the base casting of the pump, to which the pipe which carries water from the pump, is connected.
  • a conventional pressure switch 30 coupled into the discharge line or at some other corresponding pressure point in the system, will be exposed to whatever pressure conditions exist therein, and consequently the pressure prevailing at any instant in the pressure device.
  • the pressure switch When set for a certain pressure range, such as a range of 2/0 to 40 pounds pressure for example, the pressure switch will connect the pump motor in circuit and start the pump when the pressure in the system drops to or falls below the lower value of pressure in such range, and will maintain the pump mot-or in circuit until water pressure in the pressure device reaches the maximum value of the pressure range, at which time the pressure switch will respond and cut out the motor.
  • the characteristics of an expansible tube as exemplified by the curve 31 of FIGURE 6, are such that substantial expansion or enlargement thereof does not begin until a certain region 33 of pressure is developed within the tube, following which, expansion will continue almost linearly with increase in pressure until further expansion is precluded by the enclosing housing.
  • the region 33- at which substantial expansion begins, in the characteristic curve 31 of an expansible tube, may be referred to as the knee of the curve.
  • the expansible tube 15 must have a characteristic curve which can be closely related to the pressure range of the system, or in other words, to the pressure range setting of the pressure switch, in that the knee of its characteristic curve should preferably occur at substantially the lower pressure value of the pre-established pressure operating range of the system, as determined by the pressure switch; and the tube must be capable of reaching the maximum value of the pressure range.
  • the increase in volume or capacity of the tube when functioning throughout the pressure operating range of the system should be such as to assure an immediate flow of water at pressures within such range, upon opening of a service spigot or corresponding valve, and without too rapid a drop in pressure before the lower pressure of the operating range is reached and the pump started.
  • a capacity of the order of a gallon or gallon and a half will be deemed adequate for the average installation.
  • Factors which enter into the determination of the ultimate or final characteristics of the expansible tube are the nature of the material from which the tube is made, the length of tube, and wall thickness. Such factors offer a number of variables which can be readily adjusted to obtain the characteristics desired in any particular pressure device.
  • the pressure device For use in an underground installation, the pressure device will be incorporated into a line carrying water at pump pressure, and such an installation is depicted in the system of FIGURE 2 wherein a submersible pump 41 disposed below the water level in a well 43, pumps water through a discharge line 45 extending above ground to service.
  • the expansible tube will be open at each end, for connection in the discharge line.
  • FIGURE 3 A basic pressure device adaptable for use in either of the above described types of installations as pictured therein, is depicted in detail in FIGURE 3 as adapted for use in the above ground installation of FIGURE 1, and, in FIGURE 4, as adapted for the underground installation illustrated in FIGURE 2.
  • this device compnises an expansible tube 15 clamped at its ends by suitable clamping means such as bands 47, to a pipe section 49 running longitudinally thereof with its ends internally threaded.
  • a space collar 51 is preferably installed at each end between the tube 15 and the pipe section 49 to (initially provide slight spacing between the two.
  • the pipe section is provided with one or more wall openings or perforations 53 intermediate the ends of the expansible tube, whereby liquid under pressure, entering the pipe section, may gain access to the tube and begin to cause substantial expansion thereof when the pressure reaches the minimum value of the desired pressure operating range for which the pressure device is designed.
  • the accessibility of liquid to the tube provided by the slight spacing attributable to the collars, will assure uniform and efficient functioning of the tube in this connection.
  • Such housing is comprised of a pair of bell end caps, 57, 59, and an intermediate cylindrical shell 61 snugly fitting into the larger ends of the caps.
  • each cap abuts the proximate ends of the tube 15 and pipe section 49, and is clamped thereagainst by a flanged bushing 63 passing through a central opening in the cap, to threadedly engage the pipe section.
  • the bushing as thus installed, is adapted to either threadedly receive a plug 64, or a pipe connection such as when connected to a discharge line.
  • Vent holes 65 in the housing preferably the end cap components thereof, permit free movement of air from and into the housing, in response to expansion and deflation of the expansible tube.
  • one of the bell end caps 57 will be closed by a plug 64, while the other 59 will be connected to one end of the coupling pipe 21, and when the device is to be adapted for use in an underground installation, such as depicted in FIGURE 2, both bell end caps will be open for connection into the line carrying liquid under pump pressure.
  • a heavy rubber tube twenty-two inches long and having an inside diameter of two and one-half inches and a thickness of fiveeighths inch, was banded at its ends to a pipe section of one and one-half inches inside diameter and an outside diameter of one and seven-eighths inches, with collars of a quart-er inch thickness.
  • This assembly was enclosed with-in a housing having a diameter of seven inches.
  • Such device was found to have a capacity somewhat in excess of a gallon, between operating pressures of 20 to 40 pounds per square inch.
  • a feature of importance in the present invention is the flexibility of its application, through gauging a plurality of such devices in the same system, to realize increased capacity. For example, two or more of such units may be connected in tandem or in parallel relationship. Through such manipulations, the overall capacity characteristics may be widely varied to meet desired conditions in a particular system.
  • the pressure device while illustrated and described in connection with its use in a water pressure system, may be employed in any fluid pressure system where the action of an accumulator is desired.
  • the tube 67 is formed with one end closed, and its other end terminating in a flange 69 provided with uniformly spaced bolt holes.
  • This tube is enclosed in a capsule type housing 71 having an open end bounded by a narrow flange 73 against which the tube flange is adapted to abut.
  • the tube and its housing are clamped at their flanges, between a clamping ring 75 and an end plate 77 having a threaded opening 79 for connection to a coupling pipe, the clamping ring and end plate having bolt holes matching those in the tube flange, for the reception of clamping bolts 81.
  • expansible tube While we have illustrated and described the expansible tube as being of rubber, it may be of any other suitable material, or may even take the form of a bellows or a piston operating against a spring resistance.
