Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 25, 1913.
Application filed February 12, 1912. Serial No. 676,997.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JosEPH W. DAWSON, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of the city of St. Louis and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bottle- Carriers for Soaking-Machines, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification.
My invention relates to a bottle carrier and is an improvement on the type of bottle carrier shown in U. S. Patent issued to Alfred H. Wehmiller and myself, January 17, 1911, No. 981,962.
Figure I is a vertical section of a portion of a bottle soaking machine provided with my improved carrier. Fig. II is a perspective view of a portion of one of the bottle holders.
In the accompanying drawings :-A designates a bottle soaking tank provided with vertical walls 1 and 2 and a curved bottom 3.
B designates the bottle holders or buckets of my improved carrier, said buckets being connected to a sprocket chain or chains 4 which may be driven by any suitable mechanism.
5 designates a guide wheel beneath which the chain 4; travels.
The bottle holders 13 comprise side walls 6 and 7 and partition members 8 between said side walls.
The bottles moving downwardly in the tank in travel of the carriers, as indicated by the arrows Fig. I, lie on the bottle holder walls 6, and are retained in the holders by the side wall 2 of the tank. The bottles slide along the side wall 2 and the curved bottom 3 of the tank, and when they ascend at the opposite side of the tank, move inwardly toward the inner contracted ends of the holders which serve to retain the bottles in the holders.
Prior to this invention, the inner ends of the bottle holders of the kind herein described havebeen contracted by inclining the opposing walls 6 and 7, as shown in the Wehmiller & Dawson Patent No. 981,962, issued January 17, 1911, and it has been found in practice that bottle holders so constructed are liable to cause breakage of small bottles in carrying them around the bottom of the tank. As the bottles slide around the curved bottom of the tank, their necks are forced against the forward walls of the bottle holder, as shown at w in Fig. I, and if these walls are inclined, the movement of the carrier will wedge or bind the bottles between the inclines and the curved bottom of the tank. The bottles are frictionally engaged with the bottom of the tank, and if their necks are forced against inclines at the tops of the bottle holders, longitudinal thrust is imparted to the bottles while they are restrained from moving longitudinally. Furthermore, the bottle holders tilt in passing from D to E, and if the necks of the bottles are wedged against an inclined wall at D, this tilting movement will crush the bottles.
The bottle holders of this invention are contracted by bending the walls 7, thereby producing inclines 9 which do not in any way interfere with the movement of the bottles while the latter are sliding around thetank. The straight walls 6 allow the bottles to slide freely around the bottom of the tank and all danger of breakage is absolutely eliminated.
While I have described my carrier as intended to be used in a bottle soaking machine, it is obvious that it might be used in other types of apparatus, such for instance as pasteurizers.
I claim A bottle holder of the character described, having two walls, one of which is straight and unobstructed from the outer end of the holder to the inner end of the holder, and the other of which, throughout its rear portion, is substantially parallel with the first wall and throughout its forward portion converges toward the rear end of the first wall; and parallel walls connecting said first wall portion, when pressure is exerted named walls and forming therewith a botagainst an end of the bottle exterior of the tle holding chamber having three sides unholder during movement of said holder. obstructed throughout the length of the JOSEPH W. DAWSON.
5 holder whereby a bottle carried by the In the presence of holder is caused to ride against said straight A. J. MoCAULEY, wall out of contact with said converging E. B. LINN.
Copies of this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents, Washington, D. G.
