ELECTRIC-LIGHTING APPARATUS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 641,957, dated January 23, 1900.
Application filed February 20, 1899. Serial No. 706,173- (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that LGUsrAvos HEIDEL,a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of St. Louis, in the State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Electric-Lighting Apparatus, of which the following is a full, clear,and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.
My invention relates to an elec'tric-lightin g apparatus arranged to be operated through the medium of a windmill, the object of the invention being essentially to provide an apparatus by means of which electric lights may be furnished from an individual apparatus at suburban homes and farm-houses.
My invention consists in features of novelty hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claim.
Figure I is an elevation of the dynamo-operating mechanism in connection with the windmill. Fig. 11 is a top view thereof. Fig. III is a face view of the driving-shaft camdisk. Fig. IV is a side elevation of an expansible wrist-pin which I employ. Fig. V is a longitudinal section of the same.
5 designates a part of a dynamo which is designed to be located in proximity to a windmill and may be mounted on suitable supports in any desirable position. The dynamo is provided with an armature 6 on an armature-shaft 7, and the armature is provided with the usual appurtenances. The armature-shaft 7 is provided with a clutch member 8, that is movable on said shaft and is controlled by governor-toggles 9.
10 designates a windmill, which may be of any common construction and provided with the usual connecting-rod 11, that may or may not lead to a pump 12.
13 designates a standard in which a driveshaft 14 is mounted. The drive-shaft 14 is provided with a disk 15,containing an eccentric or cam groove 16,1ooated in the face thereof. The groove 16 receives a fixed expansible-wristpin 17, carried by the connecting-rod 11, so that by the vibration and reciprocation of said connecting-rod under the action of the windmill rotation is imparted to the disk by the wrist-pin 17 secured at desired position in the groove 16 of said disk, and the drive-shaft 14 is thus revolved.
18 designates a tumbler-rod, connected at one end by a knuckle-joint 19 to the driveshaft 14, and connected at its other end by a knuckle-joint 20 to a shaft 21, that leads to the armature-shaft 7, and is adapted to connect therewith by means of a clutch member 22, that receives connection with the clutch member 8 011 said armature-shaft. It will therefore be seen that the operation of the windmill causes motion to be imparted through the drive-shaft 14 and tumbler-rod 18 to the armature-shaft 7 to supply the motive power to the dynamo 5, and thereby generate the electrical current, which is conveyed to a storage battery 44. Electricity thus generated is accumulated in said storage battery and may be used therefrom as occasion may demand. The light-wires (J and C may lead to either an arc-lamp 23 or an incandescent lamp 24, as shown in Fig. I.
I claim as my invention In an electric-lighting apparatus, the connecting-rod of a windmill, a Wrist-pin carried thereby, a drive-shaft, a disk carried by said drive-shaft provided with a cam-groove adapted to receive said wrist-pin, a dynamo, and means of connection between said drive-shaft and the armature-shaft of said dynamo, substantially as described.
GUSTAVOS HEIDEL.
