UNITED STATES PATENT rEicE.
NATHANIEL SEITZ, OF WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, ASSIGNOR TO THE KOHLER IMPROVED CATTLE CAR COMPANY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
STOCK-CAR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 380,600, dated April 3, 1888.
Application filed December 5, 1867. Serial No. 257,023.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, NATHANIEL Z. SEITZ, a citizen of the United States, residing atVVashington, in the District of Columbia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stock-Cars and W'atering Apparatus for Use therewith, of which the following is so full, clear, and exact a description as will enable others skilled in the art to which myinvention appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of a car-body provided with my invention. Fig. 2 is adetail view of the pipes and water-troughs in position. Fig. 3 is a detail view of the distributing-pipe, having a graduated series of openings varying in size. Fig. 4 shows the Watertroughs secured to the distributing-pipe. Fig. 5 is an enlarged detail of the top of the car and the main water-pipe. Fig. 6 is a longitudinal section of a portion of a car, showing the relative positions of the water-pipes and the various troughs.
The object of my invention is to provide an improved water apparatus by the use of which water may be taken and distributed to all of the stock in all of the cars with the greatest convenience, in the shortest possible time, and with the least expense of material and of physical force.
Another object of my invention is to provide a distributing apparatus whereby the water may be conducted to the various troughs with such regularity as to insure against accidental overflow of one or more of the troughs while the other or others are being filled.
Another object of my invention is to pro-' vide a connecting apparatus which will facilitate the transmission of the water from any one car to any other car or cars in the train without the necessity of moving each car up to the standpipe.
In the drawings, A designates the main body of the car, in the upper portion of which is located a water-main or main supply-pipe having a central opening, B, and end connections, 0 C. The end connections, 0 C, are adapted to be secured together in such a manner that the entire train will be coupled together through the medium of these water- (No model.)
connections in addition to the usual draw-head and brake connections, thus providing an uninterrupted duct or water-way from one end to the other of the train. This will facilitate the watering of all of the stock in all of the cars by running any one of the cars up under the stand-pipe at the side of the track, as will be readily understood and appreciated by those familiar with the construction and the use of this class of cars. The main central pipe, D, is provided with conductors E,wl1ich communicate with and empty into distributing-pipes F. These distributingpipes are provided with outlets g g, which may or may not be provided with the secondary pipes h it. Obviously the pipes h It would not be required if the openings 9 g were directly above the Water-troughs G G. The water-supply pipe E should be provided with an ordinary cock, which is operated by the hand-wheel H, as shown in Fig. 1.
The troughs are pivoted, as usual, and are operated by a second hand-wheel, J, (also shown in Fig. 1,) to dump their contents when desired.
The connections 0 C at the end of the main water-pipe D may be made of rubber, leather, linen, or any other suitable flexible hose material, and should be provided with suitable couplings, a a. As the hoseconpling per se forms no part of this invention, I wish to be understood as not limiting myself to any particular style of coupling to be used in this connection.
From the foregoing itwill be readily understood that this system of water apparatus will greatly facilitate the watering of the stock, will save time and labor-two items of prime importance in dealing with the problem of the rapid, economic, and practical shipment of live stock.
Having now described my invention, what I believe to be new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, and what I therefore claim, is
1. In a water apparatus for stock-cars, a main pipe provided with a distributing-pipe having openings or outlets, the size of which is varied according to the location of the wa- 10o ter-troughs, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
2. In a water apparatus for stock-cars, the main pipe provided with a main inlet, in combination with flexible hose-connections at the ends of the car, and an outlet-pipe provided with graduated openings, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
3. In a water apparatus for stock-cars, a main pipe provided with a distributing-pipe having openings or outlets, the size ofwhich is varied according to the location of the watertroughs, in combination with the secondary pipes h, leading from said openings directly to the troughs, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
4. In a water apparatus for stock-cars, a
main pipe provided with a distributing-pipe having openings or outlets, the size of which is varied according to the location of the watertroughs, in combination with the secondary pipes h, leading from said openings directly to the troughs, the shafts upon which said troughs are hung, and the hand-wheel J on said shaft for dumping them simultaneously, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
