PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Ventilator.
We, HUGO MESTERN, of 3 Furichgasse, Engineer, and JULIUS MAYER, of
7 Förlgasse, Merchant, both of Vienna, in the Empire of Austria, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to a ventilator preferably for cooling the air of halls,
churches, manufactories and the like, and for exhausting impure gases and vapours
in manufactories, mines, stablings, and the like.
The main part of our improved ventilator is the peculiar dispersing blast or jet
pipe, needing but little water. A proper blast or jet pipe is provided, having on
its lower part a bore or hole of a very small diameter and provided in its interior
with spiral ribs of hard or vulcanised india-rubber, which imparts to the water a
screw like or turning motion. The upper part being tightly screwed on the jet
pipe is provided with a socket having a screw thread, into which is screwed the
water supply pipe.
Between jet or blast pipe and the upper part is located a fine hair sieve
retaining impurities (hemp, wood parts and the like) from the hole before
described.
Each ventilator is provided with two such blast or jet pipes projecting in the
elbow pipes in the middle of the two pipe branches and which said blast pipes are
connected by the appertaining supply pipes and by two valves and the forked pipe,
either by a hose to the valve of a fountain basin or directly to a water conduit.
The water gathering in the communicating pipe is conducted away at the short
pipe piece by a hose or by a conduit in any suitable manner. The valves may be
eventually attached by iron hoops or bands to the branches or shanks. The elbow:
pieces are adapted to be turned in the shanks in order to avoid as much as possible
the application of further elbow pieces.
Thus elbow pieces and the communicating pipe are bent under a sharp angle so
that they act as a water separator, so that the exhausted air is conducted in a dry
state.

COMPLETE
SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Ventilator.
We, HUGO MESTERN, of 3 Furichgasse, Engineer, and JULIUS MAYER,
Merchant, of 7 Förlgasse, both of Vienna, in the Empire of Austria, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be
performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
'statement:-
This invention relates to a ventilator preferably for cooling the air of halls,
churches, manufactories and the like, and for exhausting gases and vapours in
manufactories, mines, stablings, and the like.
The apparatus is intended to cocl the incoming air, and to replace the vitiated
air by fresh air.

page_text: And in order that our invention may be thoroughly understood, we now proceed
to describe the accompanying drawing thereof, reference being had to letters and
figures marked thereon.
Fig. 1, is a side view.
Fig. 2, is a front view.
Fig. 3, is a section of the blast or jet pipe drawn to an enlarged scale.
The main part of our improved ventilator is the peculiar dispersing blast or jet
pipe, needing but little water, represented in a sectional view in Fig. 3, in natural
size; is the proper blast or jet pipe, having on its lower part a bore or hole 6 of
a very small diameter and provided in its interior with spiral ribs t of hard or
vulcanised india-rubber, which imparts to the water a screw like or turning
motion. The upper part o, being tightly screwed on the jet pipe g is provided
with a socket having a screw thread G, into which is screwed the water supply
pipe.
Between the jet or blast pipe g and upper part o is located a fine hair-sieve d
retaining impurities (hemp, wood-parts and the like) from the hole b.
Each ventilator is provided with two such blast or jet pipes S1 and S2 as in
Fig. 2, projecting in the elbow-pipes A1 and A2 in the middle of the two pipe
branches B and B and which blast pipes S1 and S2 are connected by the
appertaining supply pipes R' and R2; Z and Z2, and by the two valves V and Vi
and the forked pipe Z either by a hose to the valve of a fountain basin or directly
to a water conduit. The water gathering in the communicating pipe C is con-
ducted away at the short pipe piece a by a hose or by a conduit in any suitable
manner. The valves V and V' may be eventually attached by iron hoops or
bands S to the branches or shanks B1 and B2. The elbow-pieces A and A² are
adapted to be turned into the shanks B1 and B2 in order to avoid as much as
possible the application of further elbow-pieces.
Thus elbow pieces and the communicating pipe C are bent under a sharp
angle so that they act as a water separator, so that the air is conducted in a dry
state.
Suppose the elbow piece A' be in communication with the atmospheric air
and A with the room to be ventilated; the valve V be closed and the valve V
be opened, then the water enters through Z, V, Z', R', into the jet pipe S', by
which latter it is dispersed in a fine spray, and effects an exhausting effect, which
moves the air in the direction of the arrow R2 into the room to be ventilated.
In such a manner the fresh air is conducted in the direction of R' and R².
If however, the valve V is closed and valve V is opened, then the air is moved
in the opposite or retrograde direction R2 and R', or the gases or vapours
are exhausted away from the room to be ventilated and discharged into the
atmospheric air.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we
claim is :-
1. In a ventilator, the combination of the water dispersing jet pipe g and b,
provided in its interior with spiral ribs or grooves preferably of vulcanised india
rubber, in communication with an U like or U shaped pipe (B, C, and B³), the
elbows of which are bent under a sharp angle of 90°, substantially
described and according to the accompanying drawing.
as herein
2. In a ventilator, the combination of the various parts as above described
in this specification and illustrated in the drawing for the purpose specified.
