Gaseous Liquids for Use and Transportation from Place to Place.
I, JOHN MUMFORD of Thornley Street, Hollinwood in the County of Lancaster,
Mineral water Manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of this Invention to be as
follows:-
It consists in using instead of bottles for the storage of aerated waters, a strong
metal case capable of holding several gallons, in which the aerated liquid is stored at a
high pressure so that when in use, the pressure of the gas forces the liquid up to the
counter or other place where required.
This metal case may be of any convenient form or capacity and of any suitable metal.

I, JOHN MUMFORD, 41 Thornley Street Hollinwood in the county of Lancashire
Aerated Water Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of my invention for, AN
IMPROVED METHOD & MEANS OF STORING AËRATED WATERS OR GASEOUS LIQUIDS
FOR USE AND TRANSPORTATION FROM PLACE TO PLACE, and in what manner the same
is to be performed to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement :-
My invention relates to an improved method and means of storing Aërated waters
or gaseous liquids for use and transportation from place to place.
And by the use of my invention, Bottles are not required, as they are filled with
a pump or a small vessel to make, and keep the pressure, untill the contents are
drawn of.
In order that my invention may be better understood, I now proceed to discribe the
same in relation to the drawing hereunto annexed in which is a sectional elevation of
my device complete. These vessels I preferably imploy is in the form of an Urn,
made of steel, Tinned inside to hold the water in a pure and complete state, impreg-
dated with pure carbonic Acid, or any other gas suitable for Aëration. Although these
vessels are preferred other kinds may be used, that of suitable shape, made of Copper
Brass, Iron or other suitable material.
The vessel, A, is fitted with a pump B with suitable joints, unions, valves, tubes and
pipes, The pump is fixed to the vessel, A, with union, C, or vessel, B, charged with
Bicarbonates there is a tube from the pump to the vessel A, a tube or pipe leading
from vessel, D. to the pump, B, vessel D is filled with water, vessel B, is filled with
Carbonic Acid or other gas's preferrable, by lifting the handle E up and down, the gas
is drawn with the water lifts the valves F F. and passes down tube H into the vessel
in a combined state and drawn of at the Tap G for use.
I may in the place of a pump fill the vessel A, with a Soda Water Machine and to
keep up the pressure, till the contents are drawn of, I screw vessel B to vessel A and
charge with Bicarbonates, Although I prefer this vessel, B, orthers suitable can be
employed as preferable and with other suitables to cause Aëration.
Having now particularly discribed and ascertained the nature of my invention and
in what manner the same is performed I declare that what I claim is :-
1st. In an improved method and means of storing and manufactoring of Aërated
waters or other gaseous liquids for the use and transportation from place to place A
combindation of a vessel in the shape of an Urn with a pump or other vessels, tubes,
pipes, valves, and Cocks substantically and for the purpose specified.
2nd. An improved method and means of storing and Aerating waters of the own
pressure, kept up by means of a pump and vessels substantically as and for the
purpose specified.
