MANUALLY-OPERATED HIGH-SPEED ROTOR.

Application filed February 21, 1910.

To all whom. it may concern:

Be it known that i. Max tiroicinanz, citizen of the Swiss Iitepubtie. residing at Vaneouver, in the Provnu-e of British toltnnbla,

' nieehanisin whieh is inelosed Canada, have invented a new and useful Manually- Operated liigh Speed Rotor, of whieh' the following is a speeilieation.

This invention relates to a means for deriving a rapid rotatory inovenient :troin a manual et'l'ort', and is designed to etleet this objeet by a in ans that is tXi'l'tilltly sitnple in its parts and operation and free front the usual losses dne to friction. This produetion of rapid rotation front nianual ell'ort is usually eil'eeted by means of tooth gearing. and where a high rate of speed is required. the gears must be very earefullv designed and out, Illlllilllg an expensive ineehanasin and one that with even that eare ahsorbs a eon.- iderable amount oi power in overt-(airing trietion. The ineehanisni is also eoniplieated in its number of parts and liable to derangement. it is to overcome these defeets that the invention whit-h is the subieet oi. this applieation has been designed. The prineiple of it lies in the appheation of the manual eti'ort to compress by means of a pump a fluid. preferably water, and thereafter to supply that eonipressed tluid to rotate a turbine direetl eonneeted to the ob- .jeet whi eh it is desired to impart a high speed ol' rotation to. p

The device although oartieularlydesigned tor use in a ereani separator may be applicable to a variety of purposes where it"is desired to rotate a body by a manual etl'ort.

There are. also. other important features in the manner ol pivotall v supporting the to whieh attention will he called in the following specification which partieularlv describes the invention reference being made tothe drawings by which it is aeeonipanied. in wh -h:

upon and is'seei'irely t'astened to a hollow base T a portion 5 of whieh is divided oti by a partition S to "form a water reservoir. The eolunin t3 forms the support'of the rotatory within a casing to seeured to its upper end. The eoluinn ti is divided longitinlinall by a partition 11 to prm'ide-a j).1 .\':lj "t 1; from the ehaniber 10 to the water vessel o in the base, and the larger division of the eolunin is elosed at eaeh end to for-1n an air vessel 13.

The suetion pipe t ol the pump is earried tln'm ag h the top of the base 7 and projects into the water ehainher h to within a short distance of the bottom. and the pinup dis ehaig'e pipe Ti delivers into the air vessel 13 toward its upper end.

ltlxtending downward throutih V the upper end of the air vessel i i to within a short distanee ot the bottom ol it are two jet deliver; pipes 55 to the upper-ends ot' eaeh of whieh is eonneeted a jet pipe to terminating in a nozzle lT delivering the water tangentiallv on to the vanes of an impact turbine is integral with or direetly eonneeted to the bod it is desired to rotate whieh body and its turhinenheel is rotatablv on a ventral stand i within the ehani er oi" the eohnnn tl'here then-liaraeter ol the rotator ellort required will admit. the pivotal support of the turbine is projected through the plane of its rotation. and the wheel lo and its attaehed parts is so mounted'that it will be free to adjust itselt during rotation. This resuit attained b v wheel and its eonneeted parts on the spheri eal end of the pin it) the lower cylindrical end ot whieh pin is rotatablv mounted in a hearing within the support it) which hearing may be provided viee Sttt'll as a rare oi balls to sustain the weight of the rotatable parts.

In use a nr tllill etlort is applied to the handle lever of the pump in a lateral hack and forward lltUVtllltlli in a vertical plane whieh movement is. thoniost efi'eetive in whit-h to appl a manual etl'ort. Tater is thus raised fro n the base tanlt S and is discharged through .3 into the air vessel 13. As the water rises within this vessel the niounted supporting the turbine elastieit of th air eonipressed in the upper" stream, through the oppositely directed noz zles 1.7, on to diametrically opposite sides of the turbine wheel 18. ished its work will return down the passage 12 to the base tank 8.

A simple and eltective means is thus provid'ed by which the manual eli'ort on the handle 3 is converted into a rotatory movement of the turbine wheel 18 and any attached mechanism and this is effected with- I out the use of a complicated mechamsm hereby declare that what I claim as new and desire to be protected lit by Letters latcut, is:

1. in a device of the class described, a hotlow l ase.having a chamber forming a reservoir and an opening in its top, a pipe secured to said base over said opening, said pipe having a longitudinal partition to divide the same into two compartments, one of said compartments being in communication at one end with said water reservoir, the other compartment having both ends closed, a manually operated pump, a suction pipe connecting said pump with said water reservoir, a delivery pipe connecting said pump with the closed chamber o'l said pipe, a sup port, mounted on the upper end of said pipe,

a casing mounted on the upper end of said T he water having tin-"l pipe and in communication with the upper end of said open chamber of said pipe, a turbine mounted to turn in said support, nozzles carried by said casing for projecting a. stream against said turbine, and pipesjoined with said nozzles and communicating with said closed chamber of said first mentioned pipe near the bottom of the same.

in an apparatus of the a hollow base inelosing a water reservoir, a pipe standard mounted on said base and projecting upwardly therefrom, said standard having a longitudinal partition dividing the same into an open ended chamber and a closed ended chamber, a casing mounted on the upper end of said pipe and in communication with said open ended chamber, a rotary impart turbine mounted in'said casing, impacting noaxh s for directing a fluid against said turbine, pipes connected to said nozzles and passing into said casing and down througl'i the upper end of said pipe standard into said closed ended chamber and eonununicating with said chamber near the bottom of the same, a pump supported on said pipe standard, an inlet pipe connecting said pump with said water reservoir and an outlt't pipe connecting said pump with said pipe standard and in communication with said t-los-zal (-lltlttl chamber at a place below the upper end of the same to leave an air onshion in said closed ehamb; above said place ot" eominnniration, substantially as shown amt described.

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