Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 2, 1912.
' Application filed November 14, 1910. Serial No. 592,321.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, IRA N. TERRILL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Oklahoma city, in the county of Oklahoma and State of Oklahoma, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Wells, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
In certain localities the earths surface is underlain by a stratum of quick-sand, or quick-sand and gravel, through which flows water, this stratum always being underlain with clay, rock, or some stratum impervious to water.
In wells heretofore used in obtaining water from water-bearing sand, trouble has been encountered in keeping quick-sand and silt from washing into the well; and where water carries substances of cementing qualities-the sand immediately around the well becomes hardened into rock, thus partly or wholly'shutting off the water from the well. An object, therefore, of the invention is to overcome these difficulties.
Another object is to screen and filter the water as it flows into the well.
Another object is to provide means for temporarily shutting out the water and sand for purposes of cleaning or repairing the well. a
A further object is to afford access to the sand around and near the well in order to break up and remove any solidified formation which would prevent a free flow of Water into the well.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be set forth in the ensuing description.
Referring to-the drawings: Figure 1 is a plan view of a well embodying my improvements. Fig. 2 is an enlarged sectional view, taken on a horizontal plane near the bottom of the well. Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing a portion of the earth and a portion of the wall-of the well broken away to expose construction. Fig. 4 is an enlarged perspective View of portions at the bottom of the well which are omitted in Fig. 5. is a sectional view on same scale as Fig. 2, taken on the line 5--5 of Fig. 1. Figs. 6, 7, and 8, are perspective views, respectively, of a gate, aniron frame, and a screen.
Referring to the several figures, in all of which like characters of reference designate like parts, the earth formation herein shown has a stratum 9 of quick-sand underlying the upper stratum 10 of soil format-ion. This stratum 9 of quick-sand is underlain by a stratum 11 of impervious clay or rock, and when this stratum of clay or rock is not at too great a depth to be reached it forms the bottom of the well. When this impervious stratum 11 is at too great a depth, a bottom 12 of masonry, concrete, sheet steel, or other material impervious to water is footed in the quick-sand stratum 9 to support other parts of the well.
The 'well is provided with an outer wall 13 of concrete, masonry, or other suitable material, this wall resting upon the edges of the bottom 12. The lower edge of the wall 13 is provided with a number of openings 14, of which there are sixteen in this instance, the lower edges of these openings being the upper surface of the bottom 12. The upper edge of each opening 14 is provided with lintel bars 15 and 16 which act as a reinforcing support for the wall, 13 above it. These lintel bars 15 and 16 are notcircular, but extend as a chord to the curvature of the wall 13, the inner one 15 forming. an outer guide for a verticallymovable gate 17 later described, so that the central portlon of said gate clears the inner surface of said wall in moving vertically.
The wall 13 is provided with buttresses 18 between the openings 14, the side faces 19 of said buttresses standing on radial lines of the well and being an inward continuation of the sides .20 of said openings. The upper ends of the buttresses 18 are preferably horizontal, so that they may support any scaffolding that may be used while cleaning or repairing the well. In order to close the openings 14 against the entrance of water and sand while cleaning or repairing the well, each opening is provided with the sheet-iron gate 17 aforesaid, which is arranged to slide vertically along the inner ace of the wall 13 in contact with the inner lintel bar 15. The upper edge of the outside-surface of this gate 17 is provided with a metal cleat 21 having a beveled lower edge, so as to fit tightly againstthe inner lintel buttresses 18 and in the bottom'12, the gate being provided at its upper edge with a vertical operating rod or handle 23* fo'r opening and closing it.
A screen 24, shown separately in Fig. 8,
. is mounted inwardly of the frame 22 in each opening 14, and is held outward against said frame by iron pins 25 embedded in the buttresses 18, wedges 26 beinginserted down between said pins and screen to clamp the latter againstsaid frame. Each screen'24 consists of two iron frames 27 and 28 with wire screen 29 interposed between them, this screen being so thin that it does not show in the sectional views, and bolts or rivets 30 extend through said frames and screen to clamp them permanently together. A second or inner screen 31, similar to the outer screen 24,-is mounted removably in each opening 14, and the space between said inner and outer screens is filledwith charcoal 32 or any other suitable filtering substance, a small amount of this filtering substance being. omittedinFig. 5 to expose the pin 25 and wedge 26 above referred to. In packing this filtering substance in, the inner screen 31 is crowded inwardly of the'well until stopped by wedging the converging surfaces 19 of its adjacent buttresses 18. The'filtering substance 32 is covered by a sheetiron plate 33 which fits between the converging surfaces 19 of the buttresses 18, the inner edge of this plate resting upon the inner screen 31 while its outer edge rests upon the upper edge of the frame 22 and in contact with the upper art of the gate 17. This plate 33 is1he1d dbwnward onto' the screen 31 and frame 22 by ironpins 34 embedded removably in the buttresses 18, wedges 35 being inserted between said pins and plate to clamp the latter against said screen and-frame.
fter the screens 24 and 31 havebeen set- A in Iplace, and the filtering substance 32 pac ed between them, and after the plate 33 has been put in place over said filterin substance and clamped down as describe the gate 17 is opened upward, allowing the water and'sand outside to flow'against the outer's'creen 24 and allowing the water to flow through said screen, through the-filtering substance, and through the inner screen 31 to fill the well. I
To clean the well, the gates 17 are closed downward against the om 12, the lower edges of said gates being sharpened in order 'to pass down easily through the sand outside of :the frame' 24. After closing the gates 17 the plates 33 are removed fromplace and the filtering substance 32 dug or removed from between the screens 31 and 24. These screens 31 and 24 are then removed and the well cleaned or repaired, one

After cleaning the well, the screens 24 and 31 are set in place and fresh filtering substance 32 packed between them, the plates; then being put in place and fastened; lie -gates 17 are then opened and the well fills with water which is puri fied by passing in through the screens and Theforegoing being a;;fu]l, clear, and, exact description of the invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patentisz- 1.
