POWER-TRANSMITTER.
SPECIFICATION forming partof Letters Patent No. 629,461, dated July 25, 1899. Application filed April 25, 1898. Serial No. 678,813. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ROBERT FLEETWOOD NICHOLS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Alturas, in the-county of Modoc and State of California, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in P0 wer-Transmitter's; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to improvements in apparatus for transmitting power, the same being specially applicable to use in operating lift or'suction pumps.
The object of the invention is to provide simple and inexpensive mechanism whereby rotary motion transmitted from a suitable source of power is converted into reciprocating motion for operating the piston-rods of pumps and recovering the lost power of rotary motion when working suction or lift pumps.
The invention consists of a framework made up of suitable material to make a suflicient' support for the machine, on which is mounted in suitable bearings a Walking-beam, receiv ing power through a driving-rod from any suitable source. At the short side of the walking-beam are suitable openings at gradperpendicular pump-rods.
The invention also consists in other details of construction and combination of parts, which will be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
In the drawings forming part of the specification, Figures 1, 2, 3, and 4 are perspective views of the invention. Fig. 5 is a detail end view of a coupling.
Similar reference letters and numerals indicate similar parts in all the views.
By referring to the drawings it will be seen that the framework is made up of timbers placed at an angle to form a brace, and crosspieoes, on which is mounted in suitable bearings 1 1 the shaft 2, on which is mounted a the mill-rod 4 the weight 10, connected to the walking-beam 3, will be raised, while in the upward stroke of the mill-rod 4 the weight 10 will descend and the pump -rod 11 will be raised. The weight 10 in its descent will raise an amount of water equal to its weight, thus taking off part of the strain from the mill and enabling the mill to raise water from a greater depth.
Fig. 2 is another view of the machine, showing how thestroke of the pump is increased. In this View the pump-rod 11 is connected to the walking-beam 3 at the opening 12 by a coupling 7 and a pin 6. r The mill-rod 4 is conheated. by a coupling and pin to the walkingbeam 3 at the opening 13 between the shaft 2 and the opening 12. The weight 10, connect ed to the walking-beam 3, is placed in the same position as in Fig. 1.
In Figs. 3 and 4 the frame is the same as in Figs. 1- and 2, but has one upright post 18 in addition. Said figures show a construction to increase the stroke of the pump when the pump stands in a perpendicular line with the windmill-rod, as in Fig. 1.
from the shaft 2 equal to the stroke of the mill and directly perpendicular to the pump 20. A rod 14, with couplings at each end, is connected diagonally to the walking-beam 3 at the point 12 with a pin 6 and the pump-rod 11 at the coupling 15. One end of a connecting-rod 16 is passed'through the couplings 7 and 15, secured by a pin 17. a The other end The mill-rod 4- 'is coupled to the walking-beam 3 a distance of the connecting-rod 16 is pivoted to a post 18 by a pin through a coupling 19. At the long end of the walking-beam 3 at the point 0 is hung a weight 10, the same as shown in Figs. 1 and 2 and for the same purpose.
What I claim is 1. In a device for transmitting motion, a supporting-frame, a Walking-beam pivoted on said frame, said walking-beam having a se- IlGS of adjusting-holes on its short side, a balance-weight attached to the long side, a pump-rod, means for connecting said pnmprod to said walking-beam, a windmill-rod, and a connection between said rod and said walking-beam, substantially as described.
2. In a device for transmitting motion, a supporting-frame, a walking'beam pivoted to ROBERT F. NICHOLS.
