COMBINED WATER-SUPPLY AND WINDMILL REGULATOR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters'latent No. 271,133, dated January 23, 1883.
' App1icationfiledJuue23.1882. (Nomodeh) To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, M. A. SAYLEs and T.
. J. BROOK, citizens of the United States, residing at Wichita, in the county of Sedgwiok and State of Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Water- Supply and Windmill Regulator, of which the following is a specification, reference being bad therein to the accompanying drawings.
' This invention relates to an improvement in windmill-powers for operating pumps and other devices; and it consists in combining with a wind-wheel and its tower mechanism for automatically effecting the pumping operation or utilizing the weight and consumption of the water, substantially as hereinafter more fully set forth.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a view in perspective showing a part of our improvement, and Fig. 2 is a perspective of the reservoirand float-valve and a part of the mechanism ofthe windmill-connections.
In carrying out our invention we employ, in connection with a wind-wheel, A, with its vane A, mounted upon a tower, and a pump,
. B, with its piston or plunger connected to the pump-rod D, applied to the wheel-shalt, a siphon-shaped pipe, E, having acock, a, audits upper end depending in a vessel, F, its lower end being connected to the pump B. The vessel F is connected by a cord or wire, G, passed over a pulley hung in the tower, to the vane A, to which it is fastened. From the vessel F leads a flexible pipe, G, affixed to a metal pipe, H, leading to a trough, I, situated on the ground, or in a convenient position for cattle to drink from; or it may be connected to an elevated tank or reservoir. The pipe H extends upward in the trough I, and has seated in its upper end a valve, J. To the valve J is supplied a lever, J, suitably pivoted in studs cast upon a flange on the upper end of the pipe H. At the outer end of this lever is a float, K, which is preferably made of a hollow sphere or globe.
The operation of our invention is readily understood. The wheel being in action, the pump is put in operation, when the water will flow through the pipe E into the vessel F. From the latter it will flow through the pipes G and H past the valve J into thetrough or reservoir, as the case may be. \Vhen the water has reached a certain or the required heightit will by its buoyancy lift or float the float or sphere, and thus prevent the overflowing of the trough or reservoir. At this juncture the water Will begin to rise in the vessel F and continue to do so until the vessel F has become sufficiently heavy to enable it by means of its suspending cord or wire to pull the wheel out of the wind and stop the pumping operation, when ofcourse the flow of water will be cut off. It is obvious that upon the consumption of the water in the trough by the cattle, or the reduction thereof by other use, the float will fall and permit the opening of the valve, allowing the flow of the water to resume from the vessel F. When the weight of the vessel F, has become such as to be overcome by the action of the wind the wheel will be forced into it, and thus put the pump again into operation. It will be observed that all these operations are carried on automatically, or by the weight and reduction of the water.
We claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent The combination of the wind-wheel A, hav- MYRON A. SAYLES. THOMAS J. BROOK.
