MECHANISM FOR OPERATlNG PUMPS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 445,990, dated February 10, 1891.
Application filed Jctoher 3, 1890. Serial No. 366,920. (No model.) I
To all whom it may concern.:
Be it known that I, CHARLES A. FROST, a citizen of the United States, residing at Testern, in the county of Saline and State of Nebraska, have invented a new and useful Pump-Operating Mechanism, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to *improvements in mechanism for operating pumps, the objects of which are to provide a 4mechanism which may be operated by a windmill, or which can be adapted for use in house wells and cisterns; and with these main objects in view my invention consists in certain features of construction to be hereinafter described, and then pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a section taken through a weil, showing a pump in position in the same and my improved operating mechanism in connection therewith. Fig. 2 is a detail view of the frame for supporting the operative parts. Fig. 3 is a detailviewof the link connecting the operating-crank with the piston-rod. Fig. 4 is a detail view of the clam p-couplin g for connecting the pump with a windmill. Fig. 5 is a vertical sectional view taken through the standard and the pump-rod.
1 is a well, above which is supported on the platform 2 the frame 3, which carries the operative parts.
4 is a tube that is sunk within the well and is provided at its lower end with a head 5, provided with perforations to admit the water. At the top of the tube is a cylinder 6, provided with upper and lower heads 8 and 9, respectively. At the lower end of the cylinder is a nozzle 11, to which is attached the tube 12 of spout 13, which projects above the well, and the cylinder is supported in position within the well by means of a rod or brace 14, the brace being secured to the cylinder at 15. The piston-rod, which is designated by 1G, is extended intothe pump-cylinder and carries a piston. (Not shown.) Suitable valves are likewise to be properly arranged in the cylinder or in the inlet and exit tubes of the latter, as will be readily understood 19 is a crankshaft journalcd in boxes 20, secured to frame 3 and provided with ahandcrank 21. The link 2 is provided at its lower end with eyes 23, between which fits the eye 24 at the upper end of the piston-rod 16, and through said eyes pivot-pin 25 passes.
The upper end of said link or pitman 22 has y 'link is also provided at its outer end with a pin 36 on its inner face. As shown in Fig. 1 in full lines and in dotted lines in Fig. 2, said flap is brought up so that its pin 3G will engage or take into perforation 37 above the recess 29, thus providing a boxing for the crankshaft 19, which is received within the concavities 29 and 35, which together constitute a circular journal. By constituting the boxing, as shown, with ahinged iiap, the link may be separated very readily from the crank 19, the convex portion 35 of said flap when thrown down, as shown in full lines in Fig. 3, being received bythe concavity 30. This manner of constructing the link with a two-part boxing enables the ready repair of the parts of the pump.
As above described, the pump maybe used in a house well or cistern, but may' be readily adapted for use in connection with a windmill by the employment of the device shown in Fig. 4. At the lower end of the pump-rod 38 of the windmill is a socket-piece or box consisting of two parts 30 and 40, secured to the pump-rod by means of bolts 41 passed therethrough. The lower ends of the parts 39 and 40 are provided, respectively, with hinged iiaps or links 42 and 43, said paired links constituting a clasp-coupling. The inner side of the lower end of link 42 is provided with a pin 44, that is adapted to pass through the eye 2G at the upper end of the pitman 22 and into a perforation 45 in the lower end of the opposing link 43, thus coupling the pump to awindmill. The outer end of the pin 44 is provided with a perforation IOC Li6 to receive a suitable key. (Not shown.) Between the upper hinged ends of the paired links 42 and 43 is placed a spring 47, which is adapted when the Windmill is disconnected from the pump-the aforesaid key having been removed-to throw apart said links to allow room for the free movement of the pitman 22.
That I Claim is- 1. The combination, with a pitman having an eye at its upper end, of paired flaps or links hinged at the lower end of a vertically-reciprocating rod, one of said flaps carrying a pin adapted to pass through the eye of said pitman and to enter a perforation in the other flap substantially as and for the purpose set fort 1.
