Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 10,1912.
Application filed January 29, 1912. Serial No. 674,006.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALBERT GEE, a citizen of the United States, residing in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have invented cer k the links showing the stockingboard at tached thereto; and Fig. 4, is a yiew of a modification.
A is the casing of the drier having a 1ongitudinal partition (2 separating the drying compartment C from the compartment in which the heating coils B are located. These heating coils can be constructed in any suitable manner, and may consist of a series of steam or hot water pipes, or hot air drums,
as desired. In the partition (1 is-an opening a in which is mounted the fan D secured to the power driven shaft D, and adapted to. bearings dd. In the lower portion of the partition in the present instance are openings of so that the circulation of the air in the present construction is from the drying chamber C, through the lower opening a up through the heating chamber 0 and out through the fan openings a.
While I have shown my invention as applied to a drying chamber in which the heating compartment is at the side and the fan' is arranged on the horizontal shaft; this construction and arrangement of parts may be modified without departing from the essential features of the invention, as the general arrangement of the circulating means is common in the art.
E is an endless chain made up of a series of links e forming carriers, the links being connected together in the ordinary manner by pivot pins. On each link is an upright e to which is attached the stocking board F,
made in the ordinary manner. The link is of such a width, and so designed, that the board will be held in a substantially upright position. To hold the board in proper position as it'enters and leaves the drying chamber, I provide a flanged track G for the links, 7 the tracks being in the form of a channel in the present instance, in which the chain travels. The chain wheels I, I. The sprocket wheel I is mounted on a vertical shaft I having its bearings in a standard N of any suitable design, and
passes around the sprocket on the shaft is a beveled gear wheel 73 in the present instance, which meshes with a beveled wheel 3: on a driving shaft K. This shaft extends through the casing A and is provided with a pulley or other'suitable means by which it is driven. The sprocket wheel I is secured'to a vertical shaft J having its hearings in a standard L. The two sprocket wheels and the flanged tracks, in the present instance, form a means for guiding the carriers, on which the stocking boards are mounted, in an endless path. The chain and the stocking boards mounted thereon, pass through slots c0 in a casing A, and the casing is preferably provided with a door A 'so that access may be had to the interior of the casing, in case of repairs or adjustment of the boards. The operation is as foll0ws:-The air circulates in the manner described so that a current of heated air will pass continuously through the heating chamber. vThe operator stands at the .point a: and removes a dried stocking from one of the boards F and places another stocking thereon, and as the chain is traveling slowly, this gives sufiipient time for the operator to remove one stocking and place another in position. Ifnecessary there may be two operators, one on one side of the endless chain who would remove the stockings and another on the opposite side to place the stockings on the boards. After the stocking is placed on the boards, itenters the casing and passes slowly therethrough, and by the time it reaches the outlet opening, the stocking is completely dried. The length of the drying chamber may be varied and will depend considerably. upon the speed at which the chain is traveling. If the chain is driven slowly, then a comparatively short drying chamber is used, but if the chain is moved rapidly, then the drying chamber is increased in length, as well as the endless chain. By discontinuing the guide G at the point indicated, the chain will have a I certain amount of flexibility. between the board.
While I have shown the stocking boards secured to carriers forming links of a chain, the carriers may be independently 'mounted on an endless way or track and pushed through the drier as shown in Fig. 4E,-as I wish to cover a drier with any means for conveying the stocking boards therethrough in a continuous path.
I claim: I
1. The combination in a. stocking drier, of adrying chamber;,a series of carriers; 1116211181501- guiding the carriers in an end less path into and out of the drying chamber; with stocking boards secured to the carriers at the end opposite to the toe so that a stocking can be placed on the board and removed therefrom without detaching theboard from the carrier.
2. The combination in a stocking drier, of a drying chamber; a series of carriers arranged to travel in a horizontal plane; stocking boards secured to the ,carriers at the end opposite the toe portion and projecting upwardly; with means for guiding the carriers in an endless path into and out of the drying chamber.
3. The combination of a casing forming a drying chamber, an endless chain consisting of a series of links, stocking boards secured to the links in anupright position, said chain extending -into the drying chamber and projecting'from one end thereof, means for driving the chain so that the stocking boards will be conveyed through the drying chamber.
4. The combination of a casing having a longitudinal partition, openings in the partition, a circulating fan located in one of said openings, heating pipes in one chamber and fans circulating the air through the said heating and drying chambers, an endless belt located in the dryingchamber, sprocket wheels around which the belt passes, means for driving one of said s rocket wheels, the chain being made up 0 a series of links pivotally connected, with stocking boards secured to the links in an upright position and guides for the chain retaining the boards in an upright position during the travel from one sprocket wheel'to another.
5. The combination in a stocking drier of a casing, inclosing a drying chamber, an endless chain located in the drying chamber and extending from one end thereof, sprocket wheels around which the chain passes, means for driving one of said sprocket wheels,- stocking boards secured in upright position on the links of the chain, guides for the said chain, said guides stopping short of the sprocket wheel at the feed end of the machine, so that the links can be flexed between the ends of the guides and the sprocket wheel when removing or placing a stocking on the board.
6. The combination in a stocking drier, of a casing inclosing a drying chamber, a series of stocking boards, and continuous guides for the boards extending into the drying chamber.
7. The combination in a stocking drier, of a casing inclosing a drying chamber;
'carriersfmea'ns for traversing the carriers through the drying chamber; and a stocking board adapted to each carrier.
8. The combination in a stockingdrier, of a drying chamber; carriers; means for guiding the carriers in an endless path into and out of the drying chamber; each carrier having an upright; with a stocking board secured to each upright.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
ALBERT GEE.
