Within the tubular means for operating the said valves. \Vo stem '9 is a pipe 12 of such a size as to prohave aimed to provide a construction of valve vide an annular space between the valve and in whichaperfectly-tightjointwillbe effected stem, and at the top said stem and pipe are 15 without resorting to a liquid seal, thus avoidsuitably connected by a head or casting 13, ing the disadvantageous effects due to the through which are passed suitable feed and contact of thegases with theliquid. \Ve have return pipes 13 for connecting a source of also aimed to improve the details of the valve, water-supply with the pipe 12 and the annuwhereby the ill effects due to expansion and lar space, whereby a flow of water through 2o contraction arev avoided, and we have also the valve and the effectual cooling thereof are provided an improved means for operating insured. The nut 11, it will be seen, forms a the valves capable of being easily and accucap, which closes the end of the valve-stem rately adjusted to insure the proper seating and may be readily removed for cleaning of the valves. purposes. In order to move the valves alter- 25 With these objects in view the invention nately, we provide a pulley-wheel15, (shown comprises the details of construction hereinin Fig. 3,) over which a cable 16 passes, which after described and particularly pointed out is connected with suitable eyes in the upper in the claims. end of the valve-stems.
The invention is illustrated in the accom- Two arms 17 and 18 are secured to the 3o panying drawings, in whichwheel and project radially therefrom, one of Figure 1 is a central vertical section through these terminating in a handle 18". A post 19 the valve-chambers and valves. Fig. 2 is an is arranged on each side of the whee1,designed enlarged detail view of one of the posts. Fig. to support a cam-operated abutment 20.

The abutment 20 referred to is carranged to coact with the double-faced vertiried by or forms a part of a collar 23, which cally movable valves 4 4. The chambers are has a splined connection with said rod 21 and connected above by a passage or chamber 5, is freely movable vertically thereof, being which communicates by an opening 6 with normally forced upward by a helical spring 5 5 the usual gas-main (not shown) controlled 24, the tension of which may be varied by by a mushroom-valve 7. The openings means of the nut 25. A rotatable collar 26 through the lower valve-seats communicate encircles the rod 21 above the collar 23 and with the chimney, and the lateral openings 8 has upper and lower inclined faces 26, which communicate bysuitable flues with the regencorrespond to and coact with similar inclines I00 50 eratorin the manner well understood by those on the collar 23 and a stationary collar 27 on skilled in the art. Each Valve 4, it will be the other end of the red. A handle is provided for rotating the collar 20. It will thus be seen that when the wheel 15 is rotated to reverse the valves one of the arms 17 or 18 comes beneath the abutment 20 and is engaged thereby, as shown to the right of Fig. 3. A rotation of the cam 26 forces the collar 23, with its abutment 20, downward, thereby applying powerful pressure to the arm and edecting a tight joint of the valve which has been drawn upwardly. By the threaded arrangement of the parts described the height of the abutment may be very accurately adjusted.
In order that the arms may be readily disengaged from the abutments, they are made of sufficient flexibility to allow them to be sprung laterally to carry the engaging portions from under the abutments, while being perfectly rigid under strains exerted circumferentiallyof the wheel by reason of the metal being set edgewise.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim is- 1. A valve for regenerative and like furnaces comprising a valve chamber or casing having internal upper and lower seats, a hollow valve-disk having faces for cooperating with said seats, a tubular valve-stem screwed completely through said disk, a nut or cap closing the lower end of said tube, said tube having openings communicating with the interior of the valve, and water-circulating pipes cooperating with' said tubular stem, substantially as described.
2. A valve for regenerative and like furnaces, comprising a valve-casing having upper and lower internal valve-seats, a hollow valve arranged to cooperate therewith, a tubular valve-stem screwed completely through said valve and having openings communicating with the bottom portion of the valve, a cap or nut closing the lower end of the stem and abutting against the lower side of the valve, a second nut screwed upon said tube and abutting against the upper side, a pipe within and of less diameter than said tube and forming an annular space, and water flow and return pipes connecting with said pipe and said annular space, substantially as de scribed.
3. In a regenerative or like furnace, the combination with the two alternately-operating valves, of a hand-wheel or pulley, a cable connected with the valves and passing over said pulley, and means for applying extra pressure to said hand-wheel at each extremity of its movement to effect a tight closing of the valves, substantially as described.
4. In combination, the alternately-operating valves, a pulley-wheel, a cable passing over the same and connected to the valves, arms carried by said wheel, movable abutments adapted to engage said arms at the extremities of the movement of the Wheel, and cams journaled in proximity to said abutments for moving the same, substantially as described.
5. In combination with the alternately-operating valves, a pulley-wheel, a cable passing around the same and connected to the valves, a pair of arms radiating from the pulley, pulley-wheel posts located on opposite sides of the pulleyqvheel, abutments carried by the pulley-posts for engaging the arms, springs bearing on said abutments and cams located in proximity to the abutments for depressing said abutments, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof we affix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
