All thesejparts,` in. cludinglmotor, the main controller, and the 35- arrangement of contacts of the master conf troller ma take any desired forms, since they of 'themse ves constitute no partfof the present invention. 4 y The movable member of the master con- 70 troller-.is preferably operated by means'of a main solenoid I6, which is controlled in such a manner that the'inaster controller maybe operated stepby dstep-in either direction or be causedto return quickly 'to'theo posi' 75 tion, at thewill ofthe-o erator. l 17 is a receptacleiille withli' uid and having ytherein 'an open-'ended cy inder 18 in which operates apiston 19 connected tothe core 2'() of the-solenoid 16.

switch 3() is carried by a rod which rests uponu but is not'secured to the core of the solenoid 28, said rod being secured at its upper end to one of the members of an adjustab e dash-pot 45 which retards the falling of said rod with-V out interfering with its upward movement. rlhis construction of solenoid switch is well known and forms no part of my invention.
The interrupter comprises a series of connected-fixed contacts 32 to 38, inclusive, corresponding to the master controller contacts 2 to 7, an elongated contact 38 correspond-` ing-to the contact 8 on the master controller, anda movable contact 39 connected to the coreV 20. The movable contact inem ers of the interrupter and of the master controller, therefore, move in unison. The `contact member 38 is connected toline,l and contacts 32 to 38 are all connected in parallel to the circuit including the coil of .electro-magnet 28. 40 is an electro-magnet controlling the valve 22, and the circuit for this electro-,magnet passes through the interru ter 31, as in the case of electro-magnet 20, t rou h a normally closed push-button 24, andt rough a norm ally closed switch 4.1 associated With the core 42 of electro-magnet 40 and 'arranged in parallel with the push-button 24. The movable member ot' the switch 41 is carried by a rod. which rests upon the core 42 and is connected at its upper end to one member of a dashot 46 which retards the closing of the switcii 41 Without hindering Vits opening in a manner similar to that in which the switch 30 is controlled. When `the electro-magnet 40 is dener ized, its core rests upon a stem 43 connecte to the valve 22 and presses the Vvalve from its seat against the tension of a spring 44. When the electro-magnet is energized, the valve is held closed by the spring,
The operation is as follows: Assuming that the switch S is closed, then, upon pressing push-button23, a circuit is completed through the solenoid 16, causing the core of the solen- -oid to be drawn upward and carry with it the movable contact members ol th(` controller and of the interrupter. `When the master controller reaches the iirst operative position, so as to cause switches 9 and 1() ol' the motorcontroller to close, contact 39 of the interrupter engages with contact 32, and acircuit is thereupon completed .from the source through the interrupter, through the electro- Inagnet 28, and to the ground. Electromagnet 28, being thus energized, operates to open switches 27 and 30, thus breaking its own circuit and that of the main solenoid. ltwill be seen, however, that the electro-magnet 40 has also been energized, so as to cause its core to release the valve stem; thereby permitting thc valve to close and hohl the against downward movement while the main solenoid reuniins decnergizml.
As soon as the switch 27 has been closed by the droppin of the core of the'electromagnet 28, 1t t e button 23 is still pressed down, the circuit of the main solenold 16 is again complleted and the movable member of the contro er carrying the movable contact 39 beins to rise, this movement bein permitte by reason of the fact that vthe va ve'22 acts as a check-valve and permits the liquid toilow from the upper end f the cylinder down into the lower end. The dashot '45 is set to permit the switch 30 to closes `ortly after the core of the coil 28 has dro ped and closed the switch 27, but the switc 30 does not close until the movable contact 39 has moved upward suliiciently to break connection with the xed contact 32. The switch 30, however, closes before the movable contact 39 reachesthe fixed contact 33 so that when the contact 39 does reach the contact 33 a circuit-is completed as before from the interrupter 31, through the switch 30, coil 28 and switch 29 to ground. This causes the core of the coil 28 to rise immediately and break the circuit of the controller actuating coil 16 at 2 7, at the same time opening the switch 30 and interrupting the circuit throu h Vthe coil 28. The core of the coil 28, there ore, dropsnnd'the operation is repeated.- .In this way the-controller isk caused to rise step-by-ste it the button 23 is ,A
held ressed down. If t e button 23 is release at any time the master controller stop its movement and be maintained at the step at'WhiclLit then is, owing to the checkvalvev action of the valve. 22." The electromagnet 4() o crates intermittently, `hbt its operation is o ward movement of the master controller since the valve 22 does not retard the upward movement of the master controller under any condition.
It it is desired to stop the motor quickly, the emer ency button 25 is pressed and the circuit o electro-magnet 40 thereby interru ted, so thattherore drops and holds the va vc 22 open". ."Thc weight of the core 20 and attached parts is sulicient to cause the movable contact member of the master controller to be quickly brought to the off position when the valve 22 is thus held open.
Assuming that the master controller is in one of its runnin positions, for example, that osition in w lich the movable contact ii'nem er 1 is in engagement with the iixed contacts 5 and 8 andthe movable contact 3 9 no consequence during the ripis in engagement with' the ixed'ccntacts.
and 38', and that it is desired to inov'e the master lcontroller backward one step, this may bc accomplished asfollows: Thepushbutton 24 is lepresscd thereby interrupting the circuit thrrough the coil 4() which has been receiving'A current from the line through emergency button 25, contact 38', movable contact 39, contact 35 of interrupter 31fanil through the push-button 24. The denergi-v zation oflthe coil 40 'allows the core.' 42 to.
drop therebyopening the valve 22 and allowing the. liquid to How from below thefpiston 19 toabove it.
' The rod u on which the movable member of the sWitc 41 is .mounted is retarded in its dropping by means of" the adjustable dash-pot 4 6 in a manner similar to. that in `which the switch 30 isretarded in its closing movement. Assoon as the valve 22uopens, the master switchbegins to descend and the. movable contact 39 leaves the lfixed contact 35 thereby interrupting the circuit from thet interrupter 31to the pusliebutton 24l and making it'permissible to release the push-` .buttoii'"24.' Itis obvious, therefore, that if itis desired to move themaster lcontroller backward 'but one'stepit is only` necessary to depress rtlie push-.button- '24 momentarily, The switch 41 closes'wliile'ftlie movable contact 39 is falling from-the fixejd contact 35 to fixed contact v34, and when the contact 39j engages With the #contact 34 a circuit is conipletedto thelooil V40, throughv` the switch 41 and also through the push-button 24,"pro' lvided thathas beenreleased. The energize-.
tioirof the coil 40 causes thecore 42-to rise'- j-'and permits the valve 22 to 'close thereby f stoppingthe downward movement "of "the masteri'controller.
