Claims. (Cl. 10S-48) The subject matter of this application is shown they engage. A feature of the invention is to but not claimed in my Patent No. 2,081,223, isprovide a means for connecting the rods to the sued May 25, 1937, for Fluid operated deep well pistons so that they will be practically concenpump, ,andthis application is a division of my tric, but at the same time the rods are provided 5 'copending application Serial No, 138,176, tiled with sumcient flexibility of connection with the 5 April 21, 1937, for Valvefor huid-operated pump pistons to compensate for small deviations from mechanism. perfect axial alignment of cooperating parts.

The upper end of the pump I3 is secured of a construction'as hereinabove described,- the 35 to the lower end of a iiuid delivery pipe II by end of each rod I0, I'I, and i3 is given a spaced which operating fluid under relatively high prestwo-point centralizing engagement with the pissure is delivered to a motor cylinder I2 having a ton to which it is attached. For instance, the motor piston I3 slidably disposed therein, and conical end 23 of each rod engages a conical seat thepump I0 also has a pump4 cylinder I4 having 23 at the inner end of a counterbore 21, and a 3 a pump piston` I! disposed therein. Connected portion 3l of the rod spaced from the end thereof to and projecting upwardly from the power pis.- engages an intermediate portion 33 of the counterton I3 is a pilot rod I3, and a piston rod-I1. is bore 21.
