SPRINKLING ATTACHMENT FOR WAGONS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 758,731, dated May 3, 1904.
Application filed August 6, 1903. Serial No. 168,394. (No model.) I
To all whom 7'25 may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANK E. ALLEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Carney, county of \Vyoming, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Sprinkling Attachments for 'agons, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a new and useful improvement in sprinklingattachments for wagons, and has for its object to provide an attachment consisting of an air-pump and friction-wheel for driving the pump whereby the rotating of the wagon-wheel coming in contact with the friction-wheel will operate an air-pump and drive the liquid from out of the wagon through a hose to the point desired for spraying or sprinkling.
\Vith these ends in view this invention consists in the details of construction and combination of elements hereinafter set forth and then specifically designated by the claims.
In order that those skilled in the art to which this invention appertains may understand how to make and use the same, the construction and operation will now be described in detail, referring to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a side elevation of a wagon with my appliance applied thereto; Fig. 2, an enlarged side elevation of the appliance; Fig. 3, a plan view of the same.
A represents the body of the wagon, in which a tank for containing the liquid is located. This tank is made air-tight, a pipe B leading into the same and a pipe or hose C leading out of the same.
1) is an air-pump which is connected at one end with the pipe B, in which a check-valve B is located. This air-pump is secured to a beam E, which beam may be removably secured to the box of the wagon in any manner desired.
F is a friction-wheel journaled in the fork (i, the shank of said fork sliding in the rearward end of the beam E, a springH being interposed between the beam and the forward end of the shank of thefork, said spring tending to press the friction-wheel against the traction-wheel A of the wagon.
I is a lever pivoted upon the beam E and connected by a rod 1 with the shank of the fork Gr, so that the friction-wheel may be moved in or out of engagement with the wheel A. The shaft of the friction-wheel F is provided with a rod J, extending through the same, said rod being adjustable in the shaft by means of the set'screw J. A link K is pivoted to one end of this red, so that the rod J will act as a crank, the other end of the link K being pivoted to the outer end of the pistonrod D of the air-pump. Thus it will be seen that as the friction-wheel revolves the crank J will operate the piston of the air-pump and force air into the piston of the air-pump and force air into the tank upon the interior of the wagon, and this air-pressure will force the liquid'out through the hose C.
The advantage of this invention is that the attachment is comparatively simple, cheap to manufacture, and can be readily applied to any vehicle, so that sprinkling and spraying can be done at any time without having a special wagon for this purpose.
The tank within the box of the wagon may take up the space of the entire box or may be any size smaller desired.
Of course I do not wish to be limited to the exact construction herein shown, as slight modifications could be made without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and useful is- 1. In combination with a vehicle of the character described consisting of an air-pump, a beam to which the air-pump is secured, said beam being removably attached to the box of the vehicle, a pipe leading from the air-pump to the box of the vehicle, a hose or pipe leading from the box of the vehicle, a frictionwheel journaled in one end of a slide, said slide fitted to slide within the beam, a spring tending to push the friction-wheel in contact with the traction-wheel of the vehicle, an adjustable crank connected with the friction-wheel, said crank being connected to the piston-rod of the air-pump for reciprocating the same,
and means for forcing the friction-wheel to-v ward or away from the traction-wheel, as and for the purpose specified.
2. In a device of the character described, a
vehicle-body, a beam removably secured to the through the shaft of the friction-wheel and being adjustable therein, a link pivoted to one end of the rod, the other end of the link being pivoted to the piston-rod, a lever pivoted to the beam, a rod connecting said leverwith the fork so as to move the friction-wheel toward or away from the traction-wheel, as and for the purpose specified. p
In testimony whereof I have hereunto affixed my signature in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
FRANK E. ALLEN.
