IMPROVEMENT IN AUTOMATIC BVALVBD AND FILTERING WATER-LEADERS.
dige dgetule referat tu in tlpst trttas atmt mit mating put nf tip sume.
'IO ALL WI-IOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Be it known that I, JOHN MUSS, of Quincy, Adams county, Stateof Illinois, have invented a certain new and useful Automatic Water-Leader and Filter; and I do hereby declare the following description and accompanying drawings are suiiicient to enable any person skilled in the art or science to which it most nearly appcrtains to mal-:e and use my said invention or improvements without further invention or experiment.
The nature of my invention and improvements consists in the application to a water-leader, terminatingiu a cistern or other receptacle, of a waste pipe, strainer, oat, and valves, so constructed and arranged that when the water in the cistern is below its proper greatest height, the flowing *.vater will pass down through the strainer or filter into the cistern', but when the cistern is filled to the proper height this passage will be closed, and the ilowing water will pass out through the waste pipe, at the same timewashing off the strainer so as to leave it free and clean for future use. Y
I n the drawing annexed, A A is a water-leader, (here represented as square, but may be round or of any other suitable form,) having an opening at .some point above the cistern, into. a waste pipe, B. C and D are two valves, seen cdgewisc, through the opening made in the leader and waste pipe in the drawing t-o show the interior, and firmly connected, so as to move together, and secured at the lower intersection of the waste pipe and leader by the pin or rod F, upon which they freely turn. G is a portion of the strainer or lter, extending entirely across the leader. H. is aeat, of India rubber or other suitahle material, resting upon the: water in the eistern, or suspended above itwhen the water is low, and connected with the valve D by the rod I at the joint K. In the position represented in the figure, the valve C closes the waste pipe, and the valve D being depressed, the leader is open for the water to pass down through the strainer Ginto the cistern. As the cister-n becomes filled the float II is raised and forces up the valve D under the strainer, and finally closes the passage to the cistern when the water in it has reached the height intended. At the same timethe valves C and D being connected and-moving together, as D rises and closes the leader belowr the strainer, C falls and opens the waste pipe, the water now falling upon the strainer, so as to cleanse it thoroughly, and then escaping through' the waste pipe. When the water in the cistern falls, the lioat II descends, and the movements just described are reversed, the valve D falling to or towards` its first position, so as to allow the water to pass down into the cistern, and the valve C at the saule time rising to close the waste pipe. If the iiowof water be greater than can readily pass through the strainer, the leader may become filled above the strainer, Abut the pressure thus caused will partially open the waste'pipe valve hy lifting the float, and thus an excessive pressure will be prevented, aud it is obvious that the limit of pressure may be varied by varying the shape ofthe iloat so that it may require a greater or less force to lift itv partially out of the water. 'I'he hell-cranks L and N, connected by the link or rnd M, represent a modification ofthe connection ot' the tloat II with the valve D, to be applied when the leader is connected with the cistern, not vertically, but through a hoi-izo ital pipe er passage.
`What I claim es my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
An automatic water-leader and iilter, consisting of a waste pipe, strainer, valves, and lloat, applied to a water-leader, and s0 constructed and arranged that the water shall pass through the strainer into the cistern when it requires iilling, but, when the eistern is filled, shall cleanse the strainer and pass out through the waste pipe, substantially as herein shown and described.`
JOHN MUSS.
