IMPROV EMENT IN CARPET-BEATERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 122,297, dated December 26, 187 1..
. SPECIFICATION. We, JOHN W. WHEELER and WILLIAM A. WHEELER, of Cleveland, in the county of Guyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented a new and Improved Carpet-Beating Machine, of which,
the'following is a specification:
;This invention relates to a carpet-beating machine in which oscillating heaters are employed to whip the carpet on the under side as it passes over them through the machine. Also, in combination with the mechanism for beating, there is arranged an exhaust-fan, which carries off the dust and discharges it outside of the building in which the machine is located.
The construction and operation of the machine are fully set forth in the following description:
Referring to the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 is aplan View with top removed to show beaters. Fig. 2 is an end view, showing the driving mechanism.
A is a box-or chamber, which may be made of i wood or other suitable material, in the form of a half-cylinder, if desired, in which the heaters '13 oscillate. The chamber is fitted in a strong frame,
' (l, and is covered over with a suitable cover that may be removable, which forms a close chamber, in which the dust is confined. A shaft, D, is fitted in suitable boxes in the ends of the chamber, to which are secured beaters B B, made of wood or suitable material. They are set in a diagonal line from the shaft, so that in their rapid strokes they will strike all parts, of the carpet. On the end of the shaft D, projecting through the end of the chamber, is a pulley, E, connected by crossbelts F to a large pulley, G. The belts F are secured at each'of their ends to the pulleys, which have only a reciprocating motion. Theelasticity of the belts gives a sudden whippingmovement to the heaters, which strike the carpet and spring back. Attached to the main frame 0 is a frame, C, which supports the driving parts of the machine. In the said frame 0 is placed a driving-pulley, H, connected by a belt, h, from which power is derived for operating the machine. On the shaft of the driving-pulley H is a crank I, connected by a pitman, J, to the large pulley G, by which motion is imparted to the beaters. At the upper side of the chamber is placed a fan, K, connected by belts L M to the driving-pulley H, from which it derives motion. A spout, K, leading from the fan out through the walls of the building, conducts the dust off. At the sides 01 the machine are placed rollers N N from which the carpet is rolled from one to the other, being either of the gears .P P, by which an alternate movement may be given to the rollers for carry ing the carpet back and forth through the ma chine for thoroughly beating and cleaning it. On the shaft of the driving-pulley H is a bevel-pinion, r, connected to a counter-shaft, S, which is connected by pulleys and belt t to the shaft Q,-
by which motion is imparted to the rollers N N. To adapt irregular ends or shapes of carpets to the rollers N N they are provided with cords U U having clamps at the ends for securing them to the carpet, the cords passing through rings on the rollers N N. The cords being drawn up and tied serve to piece out and hold the carpet tight in all parts.
The operation of this machine is to whip or beat the carpet, while passing through a chamher, with oscillating heaters the beaters, striking.
the carpet and quickly flying back and forth, beat the dust from the carpet without injury at the sametime the exhaust-fan, producing a strong current of air outward from the chamber, carries off the dust and discharges it through the spout as fast as it is beaten from the carpet. By this means the carpet is quickly and thoroughly cleaned, and no dust or dirt escapes into the building where themachine is situated.
We claim- 1. The combination of the oscillating heaters B B, the pulleys E and G, and the flexible belts F F in a carpet-beating machine, substantially as described, andfor the purpose set forth.
2. The shaft D and its beaters B, pulleys E.
, combined and arranged with the chamber A, in
the manner and for the purposes set forth.
