Application filed December 18, 1911. Serial No. 666,409.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MAX W. \ViLLrA'MsoN, a citizen of-the United States of America, residing at Kiowa, in'the county of Pittsburg and State of Oklahoma, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cotton-Gin Cleaners, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates togin saw cleanje'rs, designed for the purpose of cleaning the saws. on a cotton gin, and one of the principal objects of the'invention is to provide an attachment forcotton gins which shall be of simpleconstr'uction and which will operate to clean the .saws-of wet cotton during the ginning operation.
Another object of the invention is to provide ax'cleaner for the gin'saws which can be readily thrown into and -.out of operation without interfering with the rotation of the saws.
Still another dbject of the invention. is to provide an attachment for cotton gins comprising a shaft having a series of cleaners mounted upon a shaft and adapted to be rotated in the opposite direction to the rtation'of the saws and to revolve at .a greater.
speed than the gin saws for removing the wet lint fromthe saws during the ginning operation, said cleaning devlce being readily "thrown into and out of operative position.
These and other objects may be attained by means oft-he construction illustratedin the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is afront elevation of a portion of a cotton gin and showing my cleaning designates the gin saw shaft mounte attachment in position for operation; Fig. 2 is a top plan view of. the same; Fig. 3
is a side elevation; and Fig. 4 is a cent/rel" longitudinal section.
Referring to the drawings, the humor 1 to rotateiinla suitable frame 2 supported on legs 3.. The "shaft 1 is mounted in suitable bearings don the frame and the gin saws 5 aresecured to the shaft in the usual or an suitable manner. Near one end of the sha t is a friction wheel 6 and outside the friction Wheel is a pulley 7 connected to the shaft 1. A belt 8' surrounds the pulley 7 and leads to? a suitable source of rotating the shaft 1.
power for 'tation of the saws.
Mounted on a shaft 9 is a series of cleaner, rollers 10 which-may be'of wood or metal.
and provided with suitable notches 11 at intervals and in line with thes'aw teeth, as shown more clearly in Figs. 1 and 2.
The shaft 1 is mounted in brackets-orarms" 12 near the opposite ends of the shaft 9,
said shaft being mounted to rotate'in the arms 12. The lower ends of the arms 12 are rigidly secured to a rock shaft13 and on the end of said rock shaft is a hand crank 14. On the shaft 9 is a friction wheel 15' which may be thrown into and out of contact-with the friction wheel .6.on.the saw shaft, and owing to the relative s izes-ofthe friction wheels, the cleaner shaft will be rotated at a greater speed than the saw shaft and'in the opposite direction thereto.
briefly described as follows: Durin the ginning operation, the cleaner may be readily thrown up into operative position by means of the hand crank 14 and will strip the Wet,
lint from the saws and deliver it to the brush which is in use on cotton gins of the ordlnary construct-ion. Whenever desired,
the cleaner may be thrown out. of operative 70- i I The operation of my invention may be position without interfering with the ro- My invention is-simple in construction, canbe quicklyat-tached to any cotton gin,
can be readily thrown into and out of operation and is very efficient for its purpose.
I claim:
- cotton gin cleaner comprising a frame supported on legs, a shaft mounted in bear-1 ings near one end of the frame, a series of j gin saws mounted on the shaft, a large fric 9.0
t'on roller mounted near one end of the shaft outside the frame, a driving pulley. mounted on the end of the shaft nearest the friction roller, a rock shaft mounted in the frame below and to one side of the first men-.195- tioned shaft, arms secured near each end; of
the rock shaftand projecting at a slight-.-
angle from the vertical from said rock shaft, 1
both of said arms lying in the same. plane,
a shaft mounted to rotate in bearings inthe outer ends of said arms, cleaner rollers se-' cured on said last mentioned shaft, said rollers being rounded at each end and spaced apart to provide notches, said notches alinof engagement With the said large frictien I one end of the rock shaft.
