Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 15, 1905.
To (all who/1t if; many concern/.-
lie it known that 1, (lass L. Knnmoorrr, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in WatenPuril iers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in the part of apparatus of the class employed for chemically treating water to improve it for industrial purposes which forms an attachment for automatically sup ixlying and suitably in'oportioning the chemical solution to the water to be treated with it, and it relates in a specific sense more particularly to an improved form of the device for the like purpose set forth in Letters Patent of the United States No. 732,357, dated June 30, 1903.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a View in front elevation, partly sectional, of my improved device in its preferred form of embodiment; Fig. 2, a plan view, partly sectional, of the same; and Fig. 3, a section taken at the line 3 on Fig. 2 and viewed in the di rection of the arrow.
A denotes a holder for the chemical solution to be used, and it receives its supply in the arrangement usually employed in watersoftening apparatus from a chemical-mixing tank. (Not shown.) Adjacent to one side of the holder is journaled, as at m, a receptacle l5, shown in its preferred scoop form with an upright central partition 7), dividing it into two compartments B and The receptacle B is ada ited to rock on its journal-support to discharge the contents of its compartments alternately into a receiver, as the precipitating-tank, (not shown,) for the water under treatment. The supply of the raw water to be treated flows from a suitable source into the receptacle, as through a downwardly-discharging Iixed spout or pipe C, and a conduit connects the holder with the rocking receptacle, the same being shown as a trough I), having its receiving end at one side of the holder, near the top thereof. A sprocket-pinion (1 is journaled near the base of the holder ill and is connected by an endless chain c with a sprocket-wheel fon the journal at.
E is a shaft rotatably journaled in bearings on the top of opposite sides of the holder A to extend across the center of the latter and carrying on one projecting end a ratchet-wheel 7i and, loosely on the shaft, a toggle-lever 21, connected at its lower end with a head 7.2, confined to be vertically reciprocated between guides J at the respective side of the holder, the sliding head being connected by a link a with the face of the sprocluzt-pinion (Z. Iawls a and a are supported on the toggle i to engage the teeth of the ratchet it, as represented in Fig. I. The shaft E carries to rotate with it radiating arms 0, each having pivotally supported in its outer bifurcated end a cup F.
The operation is as follows: The water to be treated flows into the receptacle B and into the compartment thereof, as B, then presented to the spout O, filling that compartment and rocking it in one direction by the weight of the water to discharge the contents of the respective compartment into the tank provided to receive it. This tilting motion of the receptacle B by its gear connection with the sprocket 0 turns the latter accordingly and draws downward the link m in the direction of the arrow at m in Fig. 1, thereby lowering the head 7c and correspondingly elongating the toggle z; to actuate the pawl 'nagainst the ratchet to turn the latter and the shaft E carrying it, with the effect of turning part way around the series of cu )-carrying arms 0. In the discharging position of the compartment B the compartment B of the tilting receptacle is in line to be filled from the spout C and rock the receptacle in the contrary direction for discharging it, with the result of actuating the toggle v1 upwardly to engage the pawl a with the ratchet h and turn the shaft E part way around in the same direction as before to turn the cup-carrying arms 0 accordingly. In this manner the rocking of the receptacle B turns the cup-arms interl'nittently and stepwise in the same direction to advance the cups successively to their point of discharge into the trough D. The cups are preferably all alike in capacity, which is suitably proportioned to that of the receptacle-compar-tments in accordance with the requirement of the proportion of chemical solution to the charge of water in each compartment. The pivotal cups in traveling through the holder A fill by scooping from the contents thereof and are guided along the base of the holder. When a cup is brought coincident with the receiving end of the trough. I), it turns by gravity on its pivot and discharges its contents of solution into the trough wherein it runs into the respective compartment of the tilting receptacle. The arrangement shown is such, as to the number of arms a employed and the extent of turning them by each stroke of the reciprocating head /r, as to cause the rocking of the receptacle in each direction to bring a filled cup to the point of discharge at and discharge it into the trough to enter one compartment of the receptacle B while the other compartment is discharging and filling of the one compartment with water to be treated has begun.
The broad feature of my invention is that of the series of cups supported to be rotated intermittently in one and the same direction for filling them from the contents of the solution-holder by their advance therethrough and actuated to discharge their contents in succession into a receptacle for mixture therein with water to be treated with the solution. This may be variously accomplished by actuating mechanisms differing from the particular mechanism for the purpose herein shown and described. Hence I do not limit my invention to such particular mechanism except in such of the appended claims as specifically set forth parts thereof.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. An attachment for awater-purilier, comprising, in combination, a receptacle for the water to be treated, a chemical-solution holder, a series of cups supported to be rotated insaid holder, and means for intermittently rotating said series in one and the same direction to advance the cups stepwise to the point of their discharge to said receptacle, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. An attachment for a water-purifier, comprising, in combination, a receptacle for the Water to be treated,a chemical-solution holder,
a rotatably-journaled shaft, a series of cupcarrying arms on said shaft to rotate with it, and means for intermittently rotating said shaft in one and the same direction to advance the cups stepwise through said holder to the point of their discharge to said receptacle, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
3. An attachment for a water-purifier, comprising, in combination, a receptacle for the i l l l l 1 water to be treated, a chemical-solution holder having a discharge-conduit leading to said receptacle, a rotatably-journaled shaft, a series of arms extending from said shaft to turn with it, cups pivoted on said arms and means for intermittently rotating said shaft in one and the same direction to advance the cups stepwise through said holder to the point of their discharge into said conduit, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
a. An attachment for a water-purifier, comprising, in combination, a rocking receptacle for the water to be treated, a spout for discharging into said receptacle water to be treated, a chemical-solution holder having a discharge-conduit leading to said receptacle, a shaft journaled on said holder, a series of arms extending from said shaft to turn with it, cups on said arms, and means connected with said rocking receptacle to be actuated by its movements to turn said shaft intermittently in one and the same direction to advance the cups stepwise through said holder to the point of their discharge into said conduit, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
5. An attachment for a water-purifier, comprising, in combination, a rocking receptacle partitioned into compartments, a spout for discharging into said receptacle water to be treated, a chemical-solution holder having a discharge-conduit leading to-said receptacle, a shaft journaled on said holder, a series of arms extending from said shaft to turn with it, cups pivotally supported on the outer ends of said arms, a sprocket-wheel journaled adjacent to said receptacle, a sprocket-pinion journaled above said wheel and having a chain connection therewith, a guide rising above said pinion, a head reciprocably confined in said guide and having a link connection with said pinion, a ratchet on said shaft, and a toggle connected with said head and carrying pawls engaging said ratchet to turn it with each movement of the reciprocating head, the whole being constructed and arranged to operate substantially as described.
