SPECIFICATION formingpart Of Letters Patent NO. 666,559, dated January 22, 1901.
Application filed April 21, 1900. Serial No. 13,721. (No model.)
1'0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GARRET I). RHINEHART, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Newark, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented a new and Improved Apparatus for Oarbonating Liquids, of which the following is a full, clear,-and exact description.
The purpose of the invention is, first, to provide a simple and effective means for producing a quick and thorough com mingling of gas and liquid in a soda-fountain or other fountain or tank during the time the gas is fed to said fountain or tank, the gas entering the fountain or tank at its bottom portion, and also to provide a water-supply and wateroverflow at the upper portion of the fountain.
A further purpose of the invention is to so couple two fountains together that both may be simultaneously or independently supplied with gas and water at any needful period or so that the overflow of one or both fountains can be brought into operation either independently or simultaneously.
The invention consists in the novel construction and combination of the several parts, as will be hereinafter fully set forth, and pointed out in the claims.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 is a front elevation of the improved apparatus, a portion of one of the fountains being broken away. Fig. 2 is a horizontal section taken substantially on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 is a transverse section taken practically on the line 3 3 of Fig. 2.
A and B representsoda-water fountains or tanks of the usual or of any desired construc tion, and these fountains or tanks are provided with any approved form of bung The pipe 10 of each tank, which is usually carried by the bung 10, is led in the ordinary manner into the fountain or tank to which it belongs; but the draft-pipes 10, as thesepipes are adapted to draw off the liquid, are connected together at their upper ends by a branch pipe 11, provided with any form of coupling 11, and at this coupling a faucet 12 of any description is connected, and at each side of the faucet 12 a valve is located, (designated, respectively, at 13 and 14,) so that liquid can be drawn simultaneously from both fountains or tanks A and B or from eitherone of them, as may be desired.
The tanks or fountains A and B are shown as placed in a compartment D below the floor E, beyond which the supply-pipes 10 extend, and between the fountains or tanks A and B a water-filter O of any approved type is located. The gas-tank F is usually located upon the floor E above the compartment D in which the soda fountains or tanks are placed; but it will be understood that all the apparatus may be placed in the same compartment or on the same floor, as desired.
The gas-tank F is of the usual type, and its plug is connected with a pipe 15, having a controlling-valve 16, and this pipe 15 is also usually connected with a pressure-gage 17. The pipe 15 is provided with a branch 18, having a valve 19, which regulates the initialsupply of gas after the register has been made of the pressure at the gage 17. This branch pipe 18 below its valve 19 is connected with a coupling 21, provided with valves 22 and 23, and two pipes 24, and are carried, respectively, from opposite ends of the coupling 21 and downward to the bottom portions of the soda fountains or tanks A and B, and these gas-supply pipes 24 and 25 are provided with horizontal extensions 26, which enter the soda fountains or tanks at points near their bottoms, as shown in Fig. 1. The extremities of the extensions 26 of the gas-supply pipes are closed or blind; buta nozzle 27 is located upon each extension 26 within each of the fountains or tanks A and B, and each nozzle is preferably of S shape or is curved in opposite directions from its center, and the ends of the nozzles are transversely elongated and preferably flattened, forming contracted outlets 28. Usually these nozzles are connected with the interior of the extensions 26 of the gas-supply pipes 24: and 25 by means of openings 29, located at or near the central portions of said nozzles. When nozzles 27 of this character are employed, they deliver the gas in such manner at the bottom portions of the soda fountains or tanks as to cause a movement of the liquid in a rotary direction, thus causing the gas to quickly commingle with the liquid, and, in fact, the effect of reversely curving the extremities of the nozzles 27 is to cause a decided agitation or to produce a whirlpool action at the bottom of the tank in which the nozzle is placed and cause the gas to quickly rise to the upper portion of the tank or fountain and commingle almost as quickly With the liquid in the upper portion of the fountain as it does with the liquid in the lower portion thereof.
A pipe 30 is connected with the filter O. This pipe is the main water-supply pipe and is connected with a coupling 32,having valves 33 and 34, one at each side of the point of connection of the coupling with the pipe 30, and branch pipes 31 extend from the ends of the coupling 32 and are made to enter the upper portions of the soda fountains or tanks A and B, as is best shown in Fig. 1.
In connection with the fountains or tanks A and B overflow-pipes 35 are employed, and these pi-pes enter the fountains or tanks preferably at a point above the watersupply pipes 31. The overflow-pipes are connected byacoupling 36, having two valves 37 and 38, whereby communication between the coup hugs and either of the fountains or tanks may be shut off at any time, and the coupling 36 is provided with an outlet-pipe 36, which may be conducted to a drain or Wherever it may be found most advisable to dispose of the surplus liquid in the tanks or fountains.
This apparatus is exceedingly simple, it is durable, and itis economic, and itis perfectly adapted for the purpose intendednamely, that two tanks or fountains may be simultaneously charged or individually charged with gas, and both fountains may be drawn from simultaneously or either fountain independently, as may be found necessary.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. In a carbonating apparatus, a tank having a vertical draft or dispensing pipe connected concentrically with the same and ex tending to and opening near the bottom, a gas-inlet pipe entering the side of the tank near the bottom and having a nozzle mounted thereon with its discharge-orifice directed to produce a whirling action, a Water-supply pipe tapped in the side of the tank, and a water-overflow pipe tapped also in the side of the tank at a point above the Water-supply pipe substantially as and for the purpose described.
2. In a carbonating apparatus, the combination of two symmetrically-arranged and similarly-equipped tanks, each having a central vertical dispensing-tube extending into the bottom of the tank and terminating above in a double-valved common coupling with dispensing-faucet, each tank also having a gas-pipe with carbonating-nozzle tapped in its side near the bottom and connected above to a common double-valved coupling, a gassupply reservoir also connected to said coupling, a Water-supply pipe comm unicating with the side of each tank and connected by a common double-valved coupling at the top, and a water-overflow pipe also com municating with the side of each tank above the water-supply and connected by a common double-valved coupling having a dischargeoutlet substantially as and for the purpose described.
3. In a carbonating apparatus, the combination of two symmetrically-arranged and similarly-equipped tanks, each having a central vertical dispensing-tube extending into the bottom of the tank and terminating above in a double-valved common coupling with dispensing-faucet, each tank also having a gas-pipe With carbonating-nozzle tapped in its side near the bottom and connected above to a common double-valved coupling, a gassupply reservoir also connected to said coupling, a Water-supply pipe comm unicating with the side-of each tank and connected by a double-valved common coupling at the top, a filter also connected to said coupling, and water-overflow pipes also communicating with the sideof each tank above the water-supply and connected together above by a common double-valved coupling with discharge-outlet substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
