UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE9 RICHARD MORRELL, OF PASSAIC, NET JERSEY.
APPARATUS FOR'DRAWING ALE, 84.0.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 340,672, dated April 27, 1886 Application filed June (i, 1985. Serial No. 167.910. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, RICHARD MORRELL, of Passaic, in the county of Passaic and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Apparatus for Draw ing Ale, Beer, and other Liquors, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being` had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to that class of ap paratus which is adapted to drawing ale, beer, and other liquors from casks or barrels.
The object ofthe invention is to provide an apparatus, of simple and improved construction and operation, by which liquor may be drawn at will from one or more casks or barrels attached to a common discharge or draw cock.
The invention consists in combining and arranging a dischargecock and one or more pipes leading to one or more casks or reservoirs from which liquor is to be drawn with a forcepump, whereby air can be forced down any one of the pipes, and the liquor in the cask connected therewith placed under such press nre that it will ascend the same pipe through which air is forced, and be delivered from the discharge-cock, all substantially as hereinafter' described and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure l is an elevation view of an apparatus embodying the invention. Fig. 2 is an enlarged central section of the forcerpump and receivingchamber, with the parts in the position they occupy when the pump-piston is moving down. Fig. Sis a like view showing the position of the parts when the piston is moving upward, and Fig. 4 is a bottom view ofthe pumppiston.
Referring to these views in detail, A repre` sents the air force-pump, which is provided with a suitable handle for operating it, and is mounted on a supporting-base, B, and C is the piston of this pump,which piston is perforated by inlet`holes D, and has a slight play on the piston-rod E, so that in going down the flange F closes such holes and prevents the air in front of the piston from escaping, and in going up, Fig. 3, the piston moves slightly on the piston-rod, and these holes are opened to admit air beneath the piston.
G is the receiving-chamber, which for convenience is secured to the barrel of the forcepnmp, there being a check-valve, H, arranged between the pump-barrel and such chamber, which acts to prevent the air or any liquid forced into the chamber from rushing into the pump barrel. This receiving chamber con nects with the discharge-cock l, and is provided with the requisite nu mber of stop-cocks, J, to each of which is to be attached a pipe leading from one of the easks or barrels contain ing one kind of liquor to be kept on draft.
The operation of the apparatus is this: Communication is opened between the receivingchamber and such Cask as it is desired to draw from, the dischargecock and t-he pipes to the other casks being closed, and the pump-haudle is operated a few times, which results in air being forced into that particular Cask, and its contents being put under pressure. Vhen this has been done, the discharge-cock can be opened,and the contents of the eask openly connected therewith will be .forced out at the discharge-cock by the compressed ail-stored in the cask, and drawing from such cask may be conti n ned until the ai r-pressure therein has been reduced too low to lift its contents to the discha1'ge-cock,wlien more air may be forced into the cask, as before. Then it is desired to change from one kind of liquor to another,communication` will be cutl off between the receiving-chamber and the caskthen being drawn from, and open connection will be established between the chamber and the cask it is desired to draw from, the pump being used when making the change, if it be necessary to increase the pressurein the new cask to be drawn from. Then itis desired to clear the receivingchamber of all liquor of one kind, (as before drawing another kind of liquon) a few strokes of the pump will force the liquor then in the chamber back into the pipe from which it was drawn, and leave the chamber empty. The connecting-pipe then open is to be closed,and the pipe it is desired to draw from may be opened. The dischargeeock may becleared, as also the receivingehamber, byvclosing all the pipes to the casks, and then operating' the pump with the discharge-cock open.
It will be understood that the principal ofce of the receiving-chamber is to afford a receptacle com mon to all t-he pipes from the casks,
so that a single pump and discharge-cock may be used for any number ofcasks. The invention, therefore, is not limited by the shape or position of this chamber. It might in form be a pipe running to the dischargeeock, and con neeted by suitable branches to the pump and the various casks. So, too', when the apparatus is continuously' used to draw liquor from but one Cask, the common delivery-ehaniber is not needed, as only a single pipe leading from the discharge-cock to the cash is' required. So, also,in such ease, thereis no need of a stopcock between the discharge-cook and the cask. rPhis modilication is illustrated by Fig. 3, Where the pipe attached to the lower eud of the pumpbarrel represents the pipe running from the cash to the discharge-cechi 1f it be desired to supply the easks with pure air, this can he done by connecting one end of a pipe with the upper part of the pumpbarrel, preferably just below the piston when at the limit of its upward stroke,while the other end ol the pipe communicates with outdoor air.
I am aware that pumps for forcing air into @asks of liquor through their drawing-faucets have been connected with the cocks or plugs of' such faucets so as to be operated by turning the cocks, orso that the cocks formed part of the pumping mechanism. These I do not claim, and they will not serve the purpose of my invention, which requires that the pump be attached to the pipe leading from the delivery'eoek to the Cask without any Working connection with such cook, and so that the pump may be worked independently of the cock.
Vhat is claimed as new is- In au apparatus for drawing ale, beer, and other liquors, a discharge-cock and a pipe Connecting it to a reservoir of liquor, in combination with a forcepump attached to said pipe and arranged to be operated independently of said cock, whereby air may beforced' down the pipe into the Cask, and the liquor placed under pressure and caused to ascend the pipe through which the air is forced, and be delivered at the discharge-cock.
