GONDENSE WATER COOLER FOR REFRIGERATING AND'IGE MACHINES.
WITNESSES UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM H. WOOD AND GEORGE RICHMOND, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
CONDENSE-WATER COOLER FOR REFRIGERATING AND ICE MACHINES.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 268,349, dated November 28, 1882, Application filed September 4, 1882. (No model.)
. To all whom it may concern Be it known that we, WILLIAM H. Wool) and Gnonen RICHMOND, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in (Jondense-VVater Coolers for Refrigerating and Ice Machines; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, and in which- Figure 1 is a longitudinal vertical section of the apparatus; and Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the same laid through the horizontal plane indicated by the broken linear x in Fig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures.
Ourinvention contemplates theconstruction of an apparatus designed to cool the condensewater used in the condenser or condensing apparatus of refrigeratin g-machines, or machines for man ufacturing ice, in cases where a flow of cold water is not readily obtainable; and it consists in the construction and arrangement of parts of the same, as hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
Our apparatus consists of a tank, A, of the requisite capacity, and by preference of square or rectangular shape. Upon this tank is superimposedasmallertank, (shown atB,)formed by raising the sides of the main tank above the roof thereof. The interior of tank A is divided by a series of vertical transverse walls or partitions (shown at a) into a series ot'chalnbers orcomparti'nents, (shown at (J O 0 0 3 0 which communicate with one another through openings 0. At one end of the tank is an inlet, J, and at the other end is. the outlet L, which may lead into a suction fan or blower, (shown at K.) Every alternate compartment (represented in this case by the compartments 0 and G is foraminated at the top, as shown at I), so that Water placed in the upper tank,
B, will fall into the respective compartments in the form of a fine shower. A suitably-constructed pump, D,is employed for feedingthe water contained in the lower part of the tank A through a pipe, F, into the upper tank, B, into which it is discharged, as shown in Fig.
being closed at their inner ends, so that the water forced into them will escape through the nozzles in 'the form of very fine spray, the nozzles being provided with spraying-disks, consisting essentially of two holes drilled at right angles, so that the escaping jets will impinge upon and atomize each other.
From the foregoing description,taken in connection with the drawings, the operation of this apparatus will readily be understood. Dry or unsaturated air enters the compartmentG through theinlet J, and passes through the apparatus, through its several compartments, as indicated by the arrows, finally escaping at the opposite end of the apparatus through the aperture L. In its passage through the apparatus it intermingles with the fine spray, which in compartments 0 and U in the form of mist, and in compartments 0 and (3 in the form of a finely-subdivided shower, permeates said compartments, becoming saturated air as it passes through, and effectually cooling the water by absorbing its heat. In the application of the apparatus to our improved refrigerating and ice machine, which forms the subject of a separate application for Letters Patent of even date with this present application, the water on its way from the I bottom of tank A to the upper tank, B, is circulated through the feed-water pipe H, (shown in the said application,) through-the condensers D, and finally discharged through the outlet J (shown on Figs. 1 and 2 of the said application) into the upper tank, B.
It is desirable that the lower tank, A, should be of large dimensions, or of a capacity to con; tain always a large surplus of water, to provide for the loss by evaporation and absorption by the air.
We do not limit ourselves to any particular means or mechanism for feeding the dry air through the apparatus, as many different de- ICC vices may be employed for that purpose. The air mav either be forced or blown through the apparatus, or it may be drawn through it by SuUilOu or the apparatus may be used in con nection with a flue, chimney, or ventilatingshaft, as well as with a fan or blower.
It is also obvious that our apparatus may be used with advantage for cooling water or other liquids generally without reference to the purpose to which these are to be put; and we desire it, therefore, understood that we do not limit or confine the use of this apparatus to our improved refrigerating and ice machine.
Having thus fully described our invention, we claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States- 1. The tank A, divided by the transverse partitions a into the compartments G O (J 0 O communicating with one another, as shown, and provided with a superimposed tan-k, B, having its bottom foraminated at b, substantiallyasand forthepurpose shown and set forth.
2. The tank A, divided into a set or series of vertical compartments communicating with one another, and every alternate compartment havinga foraminated roof, substantially as and for the purpose shown and set forth.
3. The tank A, divided into a set or series of vertical compartments communicating with one another, and every alternate compartment having a series of spraying-pipes or atomizers, G H, substantially as and for the purpose shown and set forth.
4. The tank A, divided into a set or series of vertical compartments communicating with one another, every alternatecompartmenthaving aforaminated roof, and the compartments between these having each a series of spraying-pipes or atomizers, G H, substantially as and for the purpose shown and set forth.
5. The combination of the tank A, having the air-inlet J and outlet L, and divided into compartments. as shown, spraying-pipes or atomizer-s Gr H,tank B, feed-pipes F and F, and pumps or mechanism suitably constructed and arranged for feeding air through the apparatus, and water from the bottom of tank A into the upper tank, B, and into the atomiz'ers G H, substantially as and for the purpose herein shown and specified.
In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own we have hereunto affixed our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM H. WOOD. GEORGE RlOHMOND.
