DRAINAGE A'ND SEWERAGE SYSTEM.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 424,196, dated March 25, 1890. Application filed September 6, 1889- Serial No. 323,146. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, IVILLIAM IIALLOOK, of the county of Orange and State of New York, have in vented certain new and useful Improvements in Drainage and Sewerage Systems, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention consists of a system of drainage, sewerage, or water-supplyin which pipes, reservoirs, and man-holes are employed, the latter being arranged on levels, or a system 0t levels, and connected so as to seal the pipes to prevent emptying, except as to the surplus entering the reservoir or man-holes, thus forming a system wherein the flow may be maintained on level ground or successfully carried over elevations higher than the source, which may intervene between the supply and point of discharge.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawn] gs, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 represents a drainage system for low level lands or lands flowed by tide-water, where no fall can be obtained. Figs. 2 and 3 illustrate a sewerage system wherein the flow is carried as high or higher than the source.
To drain low flat lands where there is no appreciable fall, or to drain lands flowed by t1de-water, as in Fig. 1, which represents a system applicable to either case, I first coufine the tide-water to the main inlet stream or body of water by means of embankments, dikes, spiles, or the like. Then at a proper distance back from the river or other body of water, I construct a small reservoir A to receive any remaining tide-water, and all water from ditches, small streams, and storm-water. From this reservoir leads a pipe G to the man-hole O, to be constructed deeper than the reservoir and nearer to the river or other body of water S. From the man-hole O, I lay pipe F, reaching from a point below the pipe Gin the man-hole to the said river or body of water, the point of discharge being submerged below low-water mark. In the pipe Fis fitted a cut-off gate 11, which should be closed during the inflow of the tide and open after the t1de has receded below the level of the water standing in the man-hole. This should be repeated with each tide until the drainage is complete. The shut-off gate should be closed until necessary to drain again. If necessary to drain a long distance from the low lands to the river, a succession of manholes should be constructed between the reservoir and river with sections of pipe connecting the man-holes, and the discharge from the last man-hole must be above the entrance thereto of the inflow pipe, as shown plainly in Fig. 3.
In Fig. 2, A represents a reservoir or cesspool located on a rise of ground B, and into which the surface-water is led, and also the sewage and drainage of a building or buildings may be led through pipes a Z). O and D are man-holes set in the ground on a level with each other and 011 a lower level than the reservoir A, the former not far distant from the said reservoir A, the latter near the point of discharge or main sewer E. Between the man-holes is a rise of ground 13', over which the flow from the reservoir is carried through the main pipe F, which is but slightly buried in the ground and follows the outline of the hill. This pipe F connects at. one end with the man-hole C at or near its bottom, and at the other at or near the bottom of the manhole D. A pipe G leads from the reservoirA to the manhole G and connects with the latter at a point above the connection therewith of the pipe F, and a pipe II leads from the man-hole D to the point of discharge or main sewer E, and this pipe II connects with the said man-hole D at a point above the connection therewith of the pipe F, and is provided with a cutoff gate H, by which it may be closed, if desired.
The plan shown in Fig. 3 is designed for draining low lands to a river or other body of Water from which there is practically no fall. I construct a reservoir A to receive the drainage and storm-water, and from this the water flows through pipe G to a man-hole O on a lower level than the reservoir. From the manhole 0 leads the pipe F to the 1nan-hole O, which in turn is connected to man hole C by pipe G The man hole C is connected by curved pipe O to man-hole 0 Pipe 0' extends along. a rise of ground higher than the reservoir A. C is the discharge-pipe which connects with the man-hole 0 above the pipe 0 In action or operation the flow must first be started throughout the whole system by pumps or other means, to fill all of the manholes and pipes, the man-holes being filled above the entrance of the pipes to seal them and at all times keep the pipes full, forming a perpetual siphon of the whole system. Now, when Water enters the reservoir A, or any of the man-holes, in excess of the natural level which the water will seek in the man-holes, according to the locality of the discharge-pipe in the last man-hole, the excess will pass through the pipes from man-hole to man-hole and will be discharged at the final discharge of the system. In Figs. 2 and 3 the Water will find its level always in man-holes O O and C 0 so that the pipes F C may rise between them thirty-three feet or thereabout. In Fig. 1 the pipe F may curve above the reservoir A and will discharge the contents of the reservoir and man-hole down to low-water mark.
Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent The drainage, sewerage, or Water-supply system herein described, the same consisting of a succession of manholes Whose bottoms are on the same level, with connecting-pipes placed on the same level grade, the whole system being trapped by a single trap, which.
is formed by placing the discharge-pipe of the last man-hole above the level grade of the connecting-pipes, substantially as set forth.
WILLIAM HALLOCK.
