PATENT OFFICE.
ANDERSON BOOZE, OF BUCHANAN, VIRGINIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN STILLS FOR SPIRITS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 120,701, dated November 7, 1871.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ANDERSON BoozE, of Buchanan, in the county of Botetourt and State of Virginia, have invented a new and Improved Alcohol-Still; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description ofthe same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing making a part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a transverse sectional elevation, and Fig. 2 is a horizontal section.
This invention relates to a cap for a still, said cap receiving the vapor from the steamed mash in the still and conducting such vapor through Na coil of pipe, wherein it is condensed, and from which it Iiows in the condition of singlings to the low-wine room, said cap also receiving, through a pump, singlings from the low-wine room, and Vaporizing them by means of the heat of the aforesaid coil, which vapor is discharged through a separate pipe in the form of alcohol, the residnum or feints from the heated singlings being drawn oft' from the cap through a tube at its lower end.
Referring to the drawing, a is the cap, the same having a top and bottom each with a central opening. rEhe opening in the bottom of the cap Vforms the lower mouth of a hollow cone, b, placed within the cap, and extending nearly to its top, from the upper end of which cone passes a pipe, c, which descends in a coil around the cone and within the cap, and passes through the side'oi the latter near its bottom, said coil being connected with the low-wine room, and consequently discharging into the latter the sin glings wine room, pours the siuglings pumped from the latter into the top of the cap, wherein the singlings, being subjected to heat from the coil c, giveIoff alcohol in vapor, which passes through the oriiice at the top of the cap, and thence, by a pipe, e, to the alcohol-worm. A pipe, f, opening out of the bottom of the cap, gives exit to the feints,1 or residuum from the heating of the singlings.`
If it is thought better. to return the feints to the s l for redistillation this may be done by means of the pipe g, opening out of the cap a at the opposite side from the pipe f.
This process I maintain to be superior to that in which the vaporfroxn the still comes directly in contact with the singlings, because in the latter case vaporization takes place too fast, and in consequence the vapor becomes charged with impurities from the singlings and an inferior quality of alcohol is the result.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. T e process of evaporating singlings by means :of the vapor arising from steamed mash, when the singlings are received in a cap above the still and the vapor passes through a coil of pipe placed within said cap, as described.
2. The combination of the cap a, cone b, and coil c, constructed and operating as specied.
To the above specification of my invention I have signed my hand this 13th day of May,
l ANDERSON BOOZE. Witnfesses:
