Description
UNITED STATES PATENT EEICE.
SAMUEL WOOLSTON, OF VINCENTOWN, NEW JERSEY, AND 'WILLIAMCOR- FIELD, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN REVERSIBLE PERCOLATO'RS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 100,232, dated February 22, 1870.
T0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, SAMUEL WOOLSTON, 0t` Vincentown, in the county ot' Burlington and State otl New Jersey, and WILLIAM COR- FIELD, of the city of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented an Improvement in Percolators, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention consists in forming a percolator of three chambers, the upper to contain the liquid to be percolated, the lower to receive it as percolated, and the cen tra] chamber to contain the material through which the said liquid is to be percolated, the said upper and lower chamberI to be capable of assuming each the relative position of the other by the reversal of the percolator.
Figure 1 represents an external view ot' the machine embodying our invention. Fig. 2 is a skeleton view ofthe same.
A and B each represent a partition in the interior of the machine, constructed ot' Wiregauze or any perforated material that will allow the transmission of the liquid from one chamber to the other.
N is the upper chamber of the percolator; K the middle, and M the lower, chamber of the same.
E is an air-pipe from the upper portion ot' chamber M to the upper portion of chamber N.
Fisa valve by which said pipe may be opened or closediat pleasure.
C is a like pipe, which upon the reversal of the percolator connects the upper portion of chamber N with upper portion of chamber M.
D is a'valve by which said pipe may be opened or closed. y a y Gr is a cock through which the liquid can be introduced into chamber N when said chamber is uppermost, or drawn therefrom upon the reversal of the percolator.
H is a like cock, bearing the same relation toward chamber M.
I is an opening into chamber K for the introduction ofthe material through which the liquid is to be percolated. Y
The mode of operation is as follows: The material through which theliquid is to be pereolatedr having been introduced into chamber K through the opening I, said opening is to be closed until the percolating process is finished.
The percolator is then placed in position withv through chamber K and been received into chamber M, valve F is closed and valve D opened. The percolator may then be reversed, so as to place chamber M uppermost, when the liquid will he repercolated through chamber K, the reversing process to be repeated as often as may be required, or until K chamber is exhausted of such portions ot' its contents as the percolating liquid will dissolve or displace, ei'ecting the object desired more rapidly and thoroughly and with less loss by evaporation than any other method in use.
What we claim as our invention isrIhe reversible percolator with the partitions A and B and the air-pipesE and C, substantiall y as and for the purpose hereinbefore set forth.
