communicating respectively with the lower end of the passage 5d and the lower end of the lower cylinder 5b. Passages Ma and MD are provided adjacent their lower ends with annular valve seats 14c and hid respectively, which are cooperatively associated with ball valves l5 and I6 disposed thereabove. A small chamber Me is formed in block l4 below passages Ma and Mb which is closed at its lower end save for communication through a nipple [4 with the liquid supply therebelow.
The rack bars 9 and I2 are interconnected for joint operation in opposite directions by apinion or spur gear [8 which is revolubly journ'aled on a pivot shaft [9 which extends through a closure plug at one side of the casing and through an aperture formed in the opposite side of the casing. Plug 20 is of a diameter slightly greater than the pinion l'8 to facilitate assembly of the In use, when the pump rod I3 is reciprocated, pistons B and ID are moved in opposite directions within their respective cylinders 5a and 5]). Re-
ciprocating power is directly applied to piston l0 through the rack bar .I 2 and is transmittedoppositely to piston 6 through the pinion l8 and rack bar -9. The rack bars 9 and [2 are precisely guided for longitudinal reciprocating movement by means of vertical channel guides 24 and 25 respectively, cast or otherwise formed on the medial portions of the side walls of housing 5. As shown, these channels are formed in inwardly extending lugs which preferably are apertured to permit free passage of liquid through the bodies thereof.
In the upward movement of each of the pistons '5 and II], the ball valves 1 and H are closed and sealed against their respective seats and the-action of the piston lifts the water above it, upwardly, while at the same time by suction, drawing water through the intake passages Ma and Nb as the case may be. In the downward strokes of pistons B and 10, the ball valves 1 and H are dislodged upwardly from their seats and check valves I 5 and It in the intake of the housing, are
closed.
It will be apparent that as piston 6 is moving upwardly in its cylinder 5a in the pumping stroke, the piston IE! is moving downwardly through the liquid contained in cylinder 5b. The result is that an almost continuous uniform discharge of liquid through pipe P is effected even when the pump rod I3 is reciprocated through to withstand long continued use. .operation of reciprocating piston parts, rack The overlapping relationship of the paths of the two pistons 6 and I0 and their associated cylinders brings about an application of power through reciprocation of rod l3 axially of piston l0 and offset only a short distance from the longitudinal axis of piston 6. Furthermore, such arrangement enables my structure and the working parts thereof to be very closely compacted into a small unitary structure.
The entire mechanism may be very quickly assembled in a unitary housing; comprises a minimum number of working parts and is adapted The cobars and efiicient ball valves provides a high capacity, double acting pump wherein the valves are nicely sealed in their cycles of operation.
It will of course, be understood that various changes may be made in the form, details, arrangement and proportions of the parts without departing from the scope of my invention.
