PUMP.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 418,745, dated January 7, 1890.

Application filed August 13, 1889. Serial No. 320,609. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, GEORGE G. IEATCHEL-` i the following is a specification.

This invention has relation to pumps, and h as special reference to an attachment designed to be applied to an ordinary wooden pump-stock of the old style or to apump when manufactured, whereby the saine is converted into a force-.pump capable of th rowingastron g, steady, and unbroken stream of Water.

The invention consists in certain features of construction hereinafter specified, and more particularly pointed out in the appended claim.

Referring to the drawings, Figure l represents a perspective of a pump-stock provided with our improved attachment. Fig. 2 is a vertical central section of the same; Fig. 3, a detail bottom perspective ofthe pump-cap.

Like numerals of reference indicate like parts in all the figures of the drawings.

1 represents an ordinary puinp-stock provided with the usual spout 2, of cast metal, which I prefer to provide with the removable coupling 3 for the attachment of a hose-section. The pump-stock is internally bored, as at 4, and within the saine reciprocates the bucket 5, of ordinary construction, which is suspended by the pump-rod 6. Upon the upper end of the stock is securedacollar 7*, having perforated lugs 9*.

7 represents a cast-inetal pump-cap of a contour in plan adapted for the character of pump to which it is to be applied, said cap being bolted to the lugs 9* by bolts 8, inserted through openings 9,-formed at intervals in the cap, said cap also being provided with an annular or other shaped integrally-cast depending rib or fin 10, adapted to take into the pumpstock and form an air-tight connection therewith. The cap 7 is provided with a central opening 11, and surrounding the opening and depending from the cap and integral therewith is a tube 12, theV end of which extends down Within the bore 4 of the stock and preferably below the spout 2 and, into the water within the stock.

Suitably secured to the cap 7, and in this instance by the bolts 8,is cast a metal standard 13, having upper handle-receiving bearings 14, in which is pivoted the operating-handle 15, the inner end of which projects beyond the bearings 14 and into line with the depending tube l2. Loosely connected with the inner end of the handle 15 is a rod 16, broken at its middle, as at 17, and having its lower end threaded and provided withaplunger 1.8, said plunger serving as a coupling for connecting the rod 16 with asecond rod 19, havingapacking 20, which, with the plunger, is mounted for reciprocation in the depending tube 1 2, the lower end of the rod 19 being rigidly connected to the upper end of. the pump-rod 6, as at 21.

By reason of the tube 12 being smaller than the bore 4 an annular air-chamber 22 is provided at the upper end of the bore 4, thus making the pump double acting.

The operation of the pump willbe apparent from the above description in that by rocking the operating lever or handle water will be drawn up and forced out of the spout 2 at both the up and down stroke of the piston and bucket, and by reason of the relative difference in size between the depending tube 12 and the bore of the stock great force will be given the flow of water, and this, too, with comparatively slight exertion. By reason of the tube terminating within the body of water in the pump the connection between -the piston 18 and the packing 2O and the tube is maintained air-tight, and also is sufficiently lubricated for easy operation,

Any form of piston and packingniay be substituted for those shown, which in this instance I maintain in proper position by means of opposite jam-nuts 23.

Having described our invention, what we claim is--l The combination, with the pump-stock 1, having the transverse spout 2 and central vertical bore 4, the inclosed bucket 5, and rod 6, of the cast-metal collar 7*, having perforated lugs 9*, cap 7, perforated, as at 9, and having perforated lugs registering with those of the collar and bolted to the same, as at 8,and having the air-tight depending iiange 10, forced into the stock and having the opening 11,surrounded by the depending tube 12, terminating below the inner end of the spout 2, the

ings, Ihe rod 16, broken, as at 17, and havin In testimony that We claim the foregoing as its upper end connected pivot-ally with the inour own we have hereto affixed our signatures 5 ner end of the lever, and the rod 1),oonneeted in presence of two Witnesses.

at its lower end, as at 21, to the upper end of GEO. G. PATCHEL.
