VOGT APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING CONTROL 7 Filed July 5, 1929 1 supply oi state-changing Patented Dec. 19, 1933 UNITED STATES-PATENT OFFICE APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING CONTROL Clarence W. Vogt, Louisville, Ky., assignor to Vogt Instant Freezers, Inc., a corporation of Kentucky This invention relates to g a control for a processing apparatus in which the physical conditlon of a material is changed during the processing.
In many commercial processes the material in process is congealed or thinned by the use of a state-changing medium.- Such a medium may take the form of a temperature-changing medium for heating or cooling the material.
" The object of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus for automatically controlling the state-changing.medium in such a process in response to the physical condition of the material in process.
medium is automatically modified when the material in process has been congealed or thinned to a predetermined degree.
The principal feature of the invention resides in the provision of motor driven agitators moving in the material in process combinedwith means responsive to fluctuations in the electric current drawn by the motor to control the state-changing medium. Since the resistance to movementof the agitators depends upon the physical condition of the. material and since the electric current drawn by the motor depends upon the resistance to movement of the agitators, such an arrangement provides a control for the state-changing medium which is entirely and automatically dependent upon the physical condition of the material under process.
Certain features of the invention disclosed but not claimed herein are claimed in copending applications Serial No. 316,567, filed November 1, 1928, Serial No. 262,339, filed March 17, 1928, Serial No. 329,596, filed December 31, 1928, and Serial No. 362,654, filed March 1 3, 1929.
The full nature of the invention will be understood fromthe accompanying drawing and the following description and claims.
In the accompanying drawing and specifications the invention is described as applied to a continuous ice cream freezer using ammonia as a refrigerant. However it is to be understood that the invention is not limited by such a de- By this method, the

of other processes.
Fig. 1 is an elevational view of. a continuous v 50 ice cream freezing apparatus with the electrical wiring for the refrigerant control shown diagrammatically. Fig. 2 is a cross sectional view of the proceqsing chamber taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. i
A base 10 supports an electric motor 11, a
Surrounding each of the, chambers 14 is a refrigerant space '19 supplied with refrigerant from an intake pipe 20. In the apparatus-dis-- closed herein ammonia is the preferred refrigerant and is supplied in a liquid conditionunder pressure from a condenser not shown to an inlet pipe '21. The.inlet pipe communicates with an expansion valve 22 through which the ammonia is expanded and supplied in a partially vaporized condition through a pipe line 23 to an accumulator 24. The expansion valve 22'is controlled by a float 25 contained inthe accumulator to maintain a supply of liquid refrigerant in the accumulator at a substantially constant level. From the accumulator the liquid ammonia is supplied to the processing apparatus by the pipe line 20 heretofore mentioned. A pipe line 26 communicates with the opposite end of eachof the refrigerant spaces 19 and -serves to remove evaporated refrigerant therefrom and to return said refrigerant to the accumulator 24. A pipe line 2'7 returns gaseousrefrigerant from the accumulator to the compressor for recompression.
The motor 11 is herein assumed to be a threephase alternating' current motor and is supplied with electric current from main supply lines 28 by means of line contactors 29 and power lines 30, 31 and 32. A solenoid 33 serves, when energlzed, to close the line contactors 29 to supply current to the motor. and 32 is placed an overload'relay 34 adapted to open contactors in a line 35 when the motor current is above a predetermined value. Power to'operate the solenoid 33 is supplied'from one of the main power lines 28 through a line 36, a normally open start push button 37, a normally closed stop push'button 38, the line 35 containing contactors controlled by overload relays 34 and connecting with the solenoid 33 and a return line 39 connected to another of-the main supply lines 28. A line 40 connects one terminal of the In each of the lines 30 33 is operated or one of the overload relays 34 Y opens the circuit to solenoid 33.
' current in line 31 reaches a predetermined value.
' trio motor for driving said agitating means, mechrelay contactor just mentioned and connects at its opposite end to one terminal of a solenoid 43.
Included in the line 31 is a relay 41 which operates to open a contactor in a line 42 when the The line 42 connects to the line 31 through the A snap switch 46 is included in line 42. The opposite terminal of the solenoid 43 is connected by the line 44 to the power line 30. The solenoid 43 serves, when energized, to open a valve 45 in the pipe line 26. By thismeans the solenoid 43 is energized and the valve 45 is open so long as the motor is running and so long as the current drawn by themotor through line 31 is below the predetermined value for which the relay 41 is set. If the motor is shut down by the opening 43 is deenergized and a similar evacuation of refrigerant takes place. By varying the setting 'ofthe relay 41'the: solenoid 43 may be madeto operate when the-material in process has reached any desired physical condition. -By opening the snap switch 46, the liquid refrigerant ,may be similarly evacuated from the processing apparatus. I
After the solenoid 43 has become deenergized and the flow of refrigerant is stopped, the continued supply of uncongealed material to the apparatus quickly reduces the resistance to agitation. The current drawn by the motor then decreases below the value for which the relay 41 is set and the said relay permits the closing of its contactor to energize the solenoid 43 and permit the reestablishment of refrigerant supply. The intermittent opening and' closing of the valve 45 normally takes place with suflicient rapidity to provide a regulation of the action of the refrigerant which results in the production of a continuous stream of a substantially uniform product. In the production of ice cream by a batch process it has been proposed in the prior art to automatically stop the operation of the process when a predetermined physical condition of the material has been reached. The use of the term regulating in the appended claims is intended to distinguish from such .a final stoppage of the process in'which there is no control or the processafter such stoppage.
When it is desired-to regulate the new of statechanging medium between predetermined'limits instead of eflecting a complete stoppage, a .pipe 47 is used by-passing the valve 45; A valve 48 in this pipeline permits adjustments of the limit. oflcontrol.
In the case of material to be thinned by means of a state-changing medium the contactor controlledby relay. 41 is made normally open instead of normally closed. When the material in process has been thinned to the desired condition, the resistance to motion of the agitators is decreased, the current drawn by the motor decreases below the value for which relay 41 is set and the normally open contactor controlled thereby returns to open position, deenergizing its solenoid to close a valve and stop the supply of state-chang ing medium. 1
