Nrrn STATES PATENT OFFICE..
JOHN It. LANE AND ADRIAN D. DAVIES, OF OALICO, CALIFORNIA.
BOILER-CLEANER.
- SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 390,866, dated October 9, 1888.
Serial No. 198,877. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, JOHN R. LANE, and ADRIAN D. DAvrns, both citizens ofthe United States, and residing at Calico, county of San Bernardino, State of California, have invented a new and useful Device for Extracting the Mud and Settlings from the Inside of Steam- Boilers, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention relates to steam-boiler cleaners, and has for its object to simplify and chcapen the means usedy therefor, and to more effectually remove the mud or sediment from the boiler.
To such ends the invention consists in the construction and combination hereinafter particularly described, :reference being had tothe accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof, and in which- Figure lis a perspective showing the device in the position it will stand in the boiler, a portion of the two ends of the boiler being shown broken away and the bottom of the boiler being in sectien.` Fig. 2 isa longitudinal section through the device, the nipple or cap being separated from the cylinder.
In the drawings, the letter ct designates a tube or cylinder having a series of perforations, t, formed therein and provided with blades or wings b. One end ot' this tube or cylinder is closed by the head k, which has a journal or pin, h., projecting therefrom to enter a suitable bearingsay a block, d, which may be suitably supported within the boiler A at one end thereof. The other end of the tube or cylinder is provided with aeap or nip ple, c, which will it over the end of the tube or cylinder, and form any suitable connection orjoint therewith that will permit the tube or cylinder to revolve. The outer end of this cap or nipple will iit, say, in the end of the boiler, and be secured in any suitable manner so as preferably not to turn, its outer end also being open for the escape of water.
Vithin the nipple or cap is a device for revolving the tube or cylinder. This device is, say, a fly-wheel, f, or equivalent device, oi' any well-known construction,that will revolve by the impact of the outiiowing water against the same. This wheel is provided with the shaft e, one end of which is fitted in the upright or post y, so as to run therein, and the other end made angular and fitted, when cap and tube are joined together, into an angular opening in the upright or post g',` supported sions will ot' course depend on the size of the boiler.
When the device so constructed is placed in the boiler and the water enters it through the perforations and flows against the wheelf, the latter will be turned and canse the tube or cylinder to revolve, and as the latter revolves its blades or wingsstir up the mud or sediment, which passes with the water into the interior ofthe tube and out through the open end of the nipple or cap, and thus the mud or sediment is very effectually removed.
The device is not only simple in construction and efficient in operation, but cheap of manufacture, and can be applied easily to boilers already in use. Besides, it is readily put together and taken apart, and its parts, which may all be of iron or metal, are notV liable to get out of order.
Having described ourinveution and set forth its merits, what we claim is 1. The combination of the revoluble perforated tube or cylinder arranged su bst-antially as shown, provided with the blades or wings and means for revolving the same, substantially as described.
2. The combination of the revoluble apertured tube or cylinder arranged substantially as shown, and the wheel adapted to be operated by a volume of water to revolve the tube or cylinder, substantially as and for the purposes described.
8. The combination of the apertured tube or cylinder arranged substantially as shown, provided with blades or wings, the cap or nipple fitting to said tube or cylinder and the wheel located within said parts and connected with the tube or cylinder to revolve the same when the wheel is acted on by a body of water, substantially as and for the purposes described.
