Abstract: 15,748. Ogden, J. E. L. July 5. Steam - traps. - In a steam or air trap or like apparatus, which may be of any type, but is shown in Fig. 1, as of the bucket type, the discharge valve comprises a conical plug d having a passage h therethrough and fitting into a coned sleeve e having outlet passages g. The valve is normally held on to its seat by the steam pressure, but on accumulation of water, a rod j rises, first closing the central passage h and then raising the valve slightly. The pressure above the valve is thus relieved, and the valve rises to the upper end of the sleeve e, where it is maintained by the rush of water until all the water is expelled. In a modification operated by a closed float, the valve moves horizontally, and a handoperated valve is added on the fitting f carrying the sleeve e. In an expansion trap shown in Fig. 4, the valve consists of two coned parts joined by a cylindrical part d fitting loosely in the sleeve e. In a modification the valve consists of one conical and one cylindrical part.
