SCALDING APPARATUS.
Specioation of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 24, 1912.
Application led May 6, 1912. Serial No. 695,520.
l To all whom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, EMMET I. LANDERS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Troutville, in the county ot' Botetourt and State of Virginia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Scalding Aparatus; and I do hereby declare the followlng to be a full, clear, and exact descriptionv of the invention, srch as will enable others skilled in the art lo which it appcrtains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to apparatus for Washing and scalding tomatoes or other articles of food prior to canning them; and it consists in the novel construction and combination of the-parts hereinafter fully lescribed and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a side view of a scalding apparatus constructed according to thisY invention. Fig. 2 is a plan view ot the same. Fig. 3 is an end view of t-he scalding basket.
In carrying out this invention, an over head track 2 is provided and is supported by posts 3 andbrackets 4, or in any other approved manner.
A hanger 5 is provided with wheels 6 and is arranged to run on the track 2, and anyapproved construct .io-lof hanger and 30 -aik may-be used. Under one portion of Ithe track a washing tank 7 and a scalding tank 8 are provided. The washing tank may be omitted or not used il' not required, and the scalding tank is provided with hot water to scald the` tomatoes by any approved means.
Receiving tables or receptacles 9 are provided, and are arranged one on each side of the track at a convenient distance from' the scalding tank. A hoisting tackle 10 is suspended from the hanger 5, and is preferably provided with an automatic brake or hustaining catch 11 of any approved make.
The basket 14 in which the tomatoes. are placed before being scalded is connected to the hoisting tackle, and is supported by a bail 15.
The basket 144 has a crosspiece 16 which extends underneath its middle part, and which has vertical arms 17 at its ends. 'lhe bail is pivoted to the lower parts otl these arms by pins 1S, and 'itl are brackets secured to the armsl to support the outer ends of the pins. The sides 20 ot the basket are 55 formed of slats arranged horizontally and secured to the arms 17,-and one of the arms has an extension 21 which projects above the top of the basket.
The sides 20 are arranged vertically, and the bottom and ends of the basket are curved, and are formed of curved longitudinal slats andstraight cross slats secured together and to the crosspiece` 1G.
A stop peg 24 projects upwardly from the top ot the bail, and 25 is a retaining catch or ring which normally encircles one arm of the bail and the extension '21, and which prevents the bas'ket 'from tilting on its ivots. The pivot pins'v 18 are arranged be ow the center of gravity of the basket, and when the ring25 is raised clear of the extension the basket can be ltilted to discharge its contents. The ringjean be placed over the stop peg 24 as shown in Fig. 3, so as to prevent it from slipping down the bail arm before the basket has been restored to its normal position.
The tomatoes or other articles to be scaldcd are placed in the basket, and if they require washing the basket is dipped first into the washing tank, or its contents are freed from dirt in any other convenient way.
The basket with its contents is then dipped into the sealding tank by means of the hoisting tackle, and, when raised, the basket vis run along the track, and is tilted so that its contents are dumped upon one or the other of the receiving tables as found convenient. e
What I claim is:
I. In a scalding apparatus, the combination, with a tilting basket having vertical sides and curved bottom and end portions all formed of slats secured crosswise of each other, and a re-inforcing crosspiece secured under the middle part of the basket and provided with upwardly projecting arms at A itsends, said arms being secured to the vertical sides of the basket and being continuatious of lthe said crosspiece, of a supporting bail pivoted to the said arms, and a disengageable catch which normally locks one of the arms to the said bail.
2. ln a sealding apparatus, the combina tion, with a tilting basket having vertical sides and curved bottom and end portions all formed otl slats secured crosswise of each other, and a re-int'org-ng crosspiece secured under the middle part of the basket and provided with upwardly projecting arms at its ends, said arms being secured to the vertical sides of the baSket and being c0ntinuetions of the said crosspiece, of a supporting above the top of the beskets and a locking ring which Slides over one sid@ portion the bail and the seid extension and which normally rests on the top edge oi the basket and prevents it from tilting. 10
