Description
Inventor @mw UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ABEL BREAR, CF SAUGATUCK, CONNECTICUT.
I-MPROVED DEVICE FOR RAISING WATER BY STEAM.-
Specitication'forming part of Letters Patent No. 34,810, dated April l, 13H53.
To all whom it may concern.:
Be it known that I, ABEL BREAR, of Sangatuck, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and Improved Apparatus for Raising and Forcing Water and other Liquids; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, making a part of this specification, said drawing representing a central vertical section of the apparatus.
This apparatus consists,principally, of a steam-pipe the mouth of which enters and is surrounded by asoeket in which is an opening for the admission ofthe water or other liquid to be raised from the well, reservoir, or other source of supply, and from which a deliverypipe leads to the point where it is tocbe delivered, the direction of the steam-pipe being the saine as that of the contiguous portion of the delivery-pipe.' The issuing steam expels thewater from the delivery-pipe, and the place of the water so expelled is supplied by water forced up into the socket from the` well, reservoir, or other source by the presence of the atmosphere.
A is the steam-pipe, through which steam is admitted from a Aboiler by 'opening a stopvalve, B, or cock.
C is the socket, into one end of which is secured the steam-pipe A, and into the opposite en d of which is secured the delivery-pipe l). The end of the steam-pipe enters the deliverypipe, and the interiorof thelatter pipe and of the socket C is larger than the exterior of the' end of the steam-pipe, in order that a space, a, may be leftaround the latter.
Y Eis the opening in the socket for the entrance .of the water or other liquid, communieating directly with the space a, surrounding the steam-pipe.
F is acheck-valvc inthe delivery-pipe, situated a short distance above the socket C.
The socket'C and contiguous portions of the g steam-pipe and water-delivery pipes are arranged horizontally, but at a short distance from the socket C. rlhe steam-pipe A and delivery-pipe Dhave an upward direction.
To place the apparatus in an operative condition, the lower part is submerged to any depth above the check-valve in the deliverypipc,'in the water or other liquid-in the well, reservoir, or other source of supply, and the upper end of the steam-pipe is connected with a boiler.
To set the apparatus in operation steam is admitted through the pipe A by opening the stop-valve. rlhe pressure of the steam quickly opens the check-valve, and the steam, meeting the water in the pipe D, drives it forward and causes a vacuum to be formed in the lower part of the said pipe and in thespace a a, and the water or other liquid rushing thereinto through the opening E is driven forward by the steam through the deliverv-pipe ina continuous stream. When the steam is shut oif, the check-valve closes and retains the water or other liquid remaining inthe pipe D above it, and the steam remaining in the pipe A, being soon condensed, has its place supplied by water or other liquid rising through the opening E, so that the apparatus is .immediately set in operation again by opening the stopvalve B.
By providing a chamber, G, in the deliverypipe l) much larger than the pipe itself, -so that a larger quantity of liquid is retained above the check-valve than could be retained in the pipe itself, the column is moved more quickly in the starting of the apparatus, and the operation is commenced instantly.
Theapparatus may be used with great advantage in raising water from mines, as :it will work at any depth or at any distance from the boiler to which steam can be conveyed, and will raise it to any height. It may be also used as asubstitute for a fire-engine in extinguishing'ires or for other purposes which require water to be ejected with considerable force, the issue from l) being very forcible when a high pressure of steam is used.
Compressed air may be used in place ot' steam to effect thc same purpose, such air being admitted through the pipe A in the same manneras the steam, as above described.
That I claim as myinvention, and desire to secure by Letters Iatent, is-
The combination of the steam or airpipe A, the open socket C, and the delivery-pipe l) with the check-valve I" and the chamber G, the whole operating substantially as and for the purpose herein specified.
.MMI-:s Ill-HRD, y Enw. W. HoDGsoN.
