FREDERICK W. AUFDERHEIDE, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
IMPROVEMENT IN BINS FOR WREHOUSES.
To all whom fit may concern:
Be it known that I, FREDERICK W. AUEDER- HELDE, of St. Louis, in the county of St. Louis and State of Missouri, have made certain new and useful Improvements in Bins for Grain- Warehouses; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and true description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
Itis well known that in warehouses for the storage of grain, in order to convey the same to bulk-wagons for transportation purposes, the grain is shoveled and filled in bags, and that otherwise in removing and handling the grain manual labor is required. To avoid the labor, loss of time, and expenses thus incurred, the nature of this invention consists chiefly in constructing the hoppers that form the bins so as to be self-discharging, and connecting said hoppers with conveyer and discharge spouts in manner now to be more fully described.
To enable those herein skilled to make and use my said improvements, I will now more fully describe the same, referring to the accompanying- Figure 1 as a transverse sectional section at line x a, showing section through conveyer-spout on top of bins, which are also in section. Fig. 2 is a top plan. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section through conveyer and discharge spouts and bins at line x The hoppers are constructed between the joists of the building, as follows: Along the sides and ends of the walls A are secured in slanting position the side pieces or boards a. Between the joists B, and securely fastened thereto, are the bottom pieces al a2, in a horizontal inclined position, leaving a discharge opening, a3, between, as indicated in Fig. l. To the bottom of the joists are further secured side boards b b to close the sides of the slanting boards a1 a2 that form the hopper, Figs. 1 and 3. In the construction of the hoppers aforesaid every third joist is hopped over by securing to the end side boards a the top slanting boards C C', in manner shown,
Figs. 2 and 3. As per said Fig. 2 the iioor is represented as divided by two series of binsone series on each side. The center slanting boards c c', therefore, form the ends of the hoppers, similar to the slanting side boards a, secured around the wall.
The construction of the hoppers combines great strength, capable of resisting the strain and weight of the bulk grain. The'joists, however, can be further strengthened by cross pieces, and otherwise the hopper-boards may be propped by restblocks.
Connecting with each hopper opening a3 are branch-spouts d, communicating with a horizontal inclined discharge-spout, D, in manner clearly shown in Fig. 3. Each series of bins from oor to iioor has its hopper thus communicating with a main spout, l), and said spouts are made to unite at one end alongside of the wall, from whence the grain discharges itself into the bulk-wagon.
Previous to the discharge of the grain a receiving-hopper can be made to receive the grain on a scale, and thus the grain properly weighed can be permitted to discharge itself by spout connections into the carrier vessel or wagon.
To regulate and shut off the grain from each hopper the spouts d are provided near the openings as with a slide, d.
rlhe grain for storage purposes is conveyed to a conveyer-spout, E, by elevator power or conveying apparatus in manner usual. Said conveyer E is open on top, and is supported and arranged so that the grain received can be discharged on both sides into the hoppers. For this purpose the conveyer E has proper outlets c, to which is connected branch-spouts e1 e1, directed to each hopper. (See Figs. l and 3.) Each branch-spout e1 is provided with slides e2.
It is evident that the grain stored can thus, by my improved self-dischargin g hoppers, be conveyed or reconveyed from bin to bin or iioor to iioor, -or conducted by spout connections described to discharge itself as required without manual labor; also, that the principle of construction involved is adapted for all manner of with a vertical discharge-spout grain-houses, saves space, and is simple, cheap, and durable for the purpose intended.
Having thus fully described my said invention, What I claim is- 1. The hoppers constructed as described, in
combination With conveyer E and dischargespouts d D, When arranged to discharge grain, as and for the purpose .set forth.
2. The grain-bins, consisting of hopper-boards a a] a2 b b C C c c, in combination with joists B, conveyers E e1, and discharge-spouts d D,
substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony of said invention I have hereunto set my hand in presence of two subscribing Witnesses.
FRED. W. AUFDERHEIDE.
