.Letters Patent No. 100,639, dated March S, 1870.
IMPROVEMENT IN PEANUT-CLEANING- AND POLISHING-MACHINES.
The Schedule referred to `in these Letters Patent and making part of thesame t l i Be 4it known-that I, J 0H`\Y M. HEATING', of the city of Norfolk, count-y of Norfolk, 'State of Virginia, have `invented an Improvement in Machines for Olea-ning and Polishing Peanuts, &e.;and I do hereby declareA that the following, taken in connection with the drawings which accompany and form part of this specitication, is adescription of my invention sufficient to -enable those skilled in Athe art to make, construct, and
ing a sutlicient lengthto serve as handles, m m. These `bars are-strengtheriei'l by across-bar, d.v
Resting on these is the` shaft s, fig. 1, of a cylinder,
E, constructed ot' wire netting-.and woodenf or met-allie ends. Within this cylinder, t'asteued on the shaft, are radial plates alternating with each-other, as at fr, figl 2. 'lhese plates maybe either riveted to the shaft, l or made movable thereon by means of slot and screw.
i To each side of these plates, and the inner faces of v the cylinder-heads, are attached brushes of like form, made of grass, bristles,whalebone, line reed, or other substance, as shown 4in riigs. 2, 3. These brushes may be put on in sections, so as to prevent the necesu sity oi' removing the whole surface when a portion only is worn. y l
` "lnstead,.however, of using the inet-allie plates, brushes, made in thesemicircular form, maybe placed back to back and attached to the s hat't s, fig. 2, in thc same manner as the plates.
. The cylinder E,.fig. l, is moved by the. cranks t t', igsrl, 2. 'j
Beneath this cylinder E, and resting on the frame-` work A, iig. 1, is t tub, I, made either in a square, or semi-cylindrical, or other shape, and intended to hold water, in which the cylinder E revolves, to wash the nuts when they are exceedingly incrusted'with dirt, though generally the brushes alone are amply suiiicient to cleanse and polish the nuts.
, The machine is worked as follows, viz:
The cylinder E, tig. 1, is partly filled with nuts put in atthe opening K, tig. 1,ahinged section of the wire netting. The cylinder then heilig rotatedv at a mod-A erate speed by means of the cranks t t', fig. 1, causes the nuts by their own weight to pass between the brushes 1:, iig. 2, during wliich` process they are thoroughly cleaned, and (it' they are freshly-picked nuts) polished'inely, both of which conditions greatly enhance their market value, and thus make a large saving to the producer. Att-er being satisfactorily cleaned, the 'nuts are emptied from the cylinder by tipping it back by means of the handles mm', tig. 1, over some convenient receptacle, as bags, or upon the tloor.
ularly to supply a long-felt want in thc peanut trade, may also be-used as a grain-cleaner. What I claim .as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-` 1.v TheV revolving cylinder E, constructed of wiregauze or its equivalent, with solid heads, and having radial plates upon its axis, the plates having brushes rtheremneand alternating with each other, substantially as and for the purpose described. A
ZsThe combination ofthe cylinder land its hinged frame, composed of lever-bars m Im and cross-bar d, when these parts are constructed as and for the purpose herein set forth.
The revolving wire-gauze cylinder E, constructed as described, having heads provided'with brushes over their entire faces, and' operating in the manner and for the purpose-set forth.
