SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 750,560, dated January 26, 1904.

A li ation fil d Novemberll, 1903. Serial No.180,788. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, OHARLEs J OSEPH ALLEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sabina, in the county of Clinton and State of Ohio, have invented new and useful Improvements in Pumps, of which the following is a specification.

This invention has relation to pumps, and has for its object the provision of a pump of novel form, construction, material, and combination of parts that will be especially adapted for use in pumping liquid from a barrel or cistern and which will be non-corrodible in all those parts which come into contact with the liquid and simple, strong, durable, and comparatively inexpensive and which may be readily adapted by a slight change in the length of the barrel of the pump to operate in cisterns of greateror less depth.

In carrying my invention into eifect I construct the barrel and the stock of the pump of wood and the valves and such other of the appurtenant parts of the pump as will come into contact with the liquid of suitable non-corrodible materials, the whole being so constructed that it may be readily set up or taken apart for cleaning or repairs.

In the accompanying drawings, illustrating my invention, Figure 1 is a vertical sectional View of the complete pump; Fig. 2, a transverse sectional view of the stock of the same; Figs. 3, 4E, and 5, detail views of parts of the valves; Fig. 6, a side elevation of the pumppiston and apart of the rod, and Fig. 7 a side elevation showing my improved pump in position over a barrel.

In the several figures of the drawings corresponding letters of reference indicate like parts.

A designates the body of the pump, which is composed of a single cylindrical section of wood, having an enlarged head or cap B, through which passes the pump-rod C, provided, as shown, with a handle D. The section A is formed with a central cylindrical chamber E, into which the pump-rod G extends, said pump-rod carrying a plunger F, secured in place upon the end of the rod by a cotter-pin G and having upon the top a flexi- "in position in a barrel.

ble disk H. The plunger F is made of suitable non-corrodible material, preferably of a 'vitreous material, such as porcelain, and, as shown in Fig. 4:, is of cylindrical .form and provided with semicylindrical grooves F F in its periphery to be pumped.

The body A of the pump is somewhat diminished in diameter at its lower end, and a stock H, which is of the same material as the body of the pump that is, of wood-is formed at its upper end I to [it within the cylindrical bore of the pump-body A, a shoulder 11 upon the stock 11 serving to sustain the body upon the stock and limiting the distance which the stock will extend into the body A. Upon the top of the stock H is arranged a flexible valve K, which is composed of leather or other suitable non-corrodible material and is held in position by a pin L, of wood, rubber, or other non-corrodible material. A disk H, of suitable flexible material, such as rubber or leather, is arranged upon the top of the plunger or piston F and fits snugly within the bore of the body A. l

The stock H of the pump is, as shown in cross-section in Fig. 2, composed of two halffor the passage of the liquid sections, one of which is formed with tongues h, fitting the corresponding grooves ii in the other section, the two sections being held together by wooden pins 71., that pass transversely through the stock and centrally of the tongue 72,.

The pump constructed as above described is specially adapted for use in pumping from a barrel or from a cistern, and I have shown in Fig. 7 of the drawings my improved pump The stock of the pump, being readily removable from the body A, may, if desired, be used with the pump in connection With a barrel or other receptacle or be removed and replaced by' a barrel of less length than is required when pumping from a cistern or other deep receptacle.

The entire body of the pump, and the stock as well, being composed wholly of wood is non-corrodible, and the pump piston or plunger, the valves, and the device securing the valves in place being all of non-corrodible material the pump Will consequently be strictly non-corrodible in all the parts which come into contact with the liquid being pumped.

Having described my invention, What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s

The combination with the wooden pumpbody A having a cylindrical bore E and an integral head B of the pump-rod H, the cylindrical vitreous piston or plunger F formed with vertical grooves f the stock H and the valves H and K secured respectively to the top of said stock and to the plunger 0r piston, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing Witnesses.

CHARLES JOSEPH ALLEN.
