ASH SIFTER.
APPLICATION FILED OCT. 28. IBIS. 1,289,179 Patented Dec. 31,1918.
WITNESSES.- W Q a -c. WXW mum M 'WILLIAM J. KENNEDY, or BINGHAMTON, New YORK.
Ase-simian.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed October 28, 1916. Serial No. 128,352.
To all whom it may concern:
' Be itknown that I, WILLIAM J. KENNEDY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Binghamton, in the county of Broome and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ash-Sifters, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in ash sifters, simple in construction, in which ashes are screened and removed and the dust therefrom carried away out of the building, and it has for its object to provide a means for sifting ashes and removing the screenings to the furnace and the ashes from the sifter, without the escape of dust into the room. With these objects in view my invention consists in certain novel features of construction and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter fully described and pointed out in the claimsreference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1, is a perspective view of my device. Fig. 2, is a perspective view of my device showing the front lid open and partial interior view of my device. Fig. 3, is a perspective view of my device with hood raised from contact with ash receiver. Fig. 4, is a side View of a part of my device. Fig. 5, is a side view of a part of my device. Fig. 6, is a plan view of a part of my device. The same reference characters denote like parts in each of the several figures of the drawing. In carrying out my invention I provide a hood A. Mounted in the top of hood A, I have the hinged opening lid 3, having the notch 3 in its lower edge, for the passage of handle 6 of the sifter. On the interior of hood A, I have parallel guide supports 4.4 on the interior sides thereof, and slidably mounted on said guide supports 4.4 I have the screen box or sifter B having the sides 7.7.7 and having the projecting handle 6 and screen bottom 8. On the front of screen B I have the hinged end piece 9 pivotally mounted and adapted to be raised and lowered. By the side of the sifter I mount a vertical support 10 and have mounted thereon and projecting outwardly therefrom the band 11 which passes around the supports, the ventilating pipe and dust pipe 12, which pipe 12 connects with the chimney or furnace pipe at any convenient point. Mounted on pipe 12, I have the removable end cap 13.' Pipe 2 mounted on the hood A has slidable connection with pipe 12 and in pipe 2 I have the damper 2, by means of which when connection is made with furnace pipe the draft of the furnace is not affected. On the lower sides of the hood A, I have the projecting edges14.14 14.14 which lap over or projects down upon sides of ash receiver C located beneath the hood A. 'Pivotally mounted on support 10 I have the lever 15 having pivotal connection with pipe 2 mounted in hood A. Also mounted onsupport 10, I have hook 15 adapted to hook over lever 15 and hold hood A in a raised position. In the operation of my device when I wish to screen ashes I open the front hinged lid 3 and draw outward on handle 6 until the screen B is at front side of the hood A. I then fill the screen with ashes from the furnace and close down the lid 3. I then draw the screen back and forth within the sifter until the ashes are screened or sifted into the ash box O. I then open lid 3, withdraw the screen B and take it to the open furnace then opening the front end 9 of screen B I pass the screener into the furnace or other receptacle and pour out the screenings. then shut down end 9 of the screener B and again place it on the guides 4.4 in hood A; and fill it with ashes and screen the same as before. The dust from the screening process passes through pipe 12 and into the chimney and out of the building. I repeat the process until the ash receiver C is filled with ashes; then I press down the lever 15 which raises hood A from the ash receiver C; and I then remove the receiver with its contents out of the building where it is emptied. I replace it, pull down hood A upon it and continue the screening; if perchance any sediment collects in pipe 12 I remove cap 18 and with a brush or other means reach in and clean pipe 12.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and for which I desire Letters Patent is as follows: A
1. In an ash sifter, a hood, mounted in the top of the same a pipe projecting upward and having a damper therein and having slidable connection with a pipe connecting with chimney, said hood having a front hinged opening lid, an ash sifter slidably mounted in said hood; and having operating means extending outside thereof; an ash receiver below the hood and screen, the hood having side projections overlapping said ash receiver; lever means for raising and lowering said hood, and holding the Patented Dec. 31, 1918.
same suspended above and "separated from the ash receiver.
2. In an ash sifter, a base, a hood sup ported by the base, an ash sifter in the hood and having operatingmeans extending from Without the hood, a ventilating pipe having one end terminating short of the hood and communicating at its other end With a suitable flue, a support for said ventilating pipe, a pipe mounted on the hood and communicating therewith, said pipe telescoping Within the ventilating pipe, lever means on the support having connection With the hood for raising and lowering the latter, and locking means for securing the hood in raised position.
3. An ash sifter comprising in combination, an ash receptacle, a hood removably supported by the ash receptacle, a sifter operably supported in the hood, a ventilating pipe having one end disposed in proximity to the hood and adapted to be connected to a flue, a support for said ventilating pipe,
a pipe on the hood communicating with the ventilating pipe and the sliding engagement With said ventilating pipe, a lever pivotally mounted on the support for the ventilating pipe and engaging the pipe on the hood for raising and supporting the hood above the ash receptacle to permit dumping of the latter.
4. In an ash sifter, a base, a hood supported on the base, mounted in the hood, a ventilating pipe having aflue connection and supported in proximity to the hood, and means for raising and lowering the hood relative to the base and ventilating pipe and maintaining at all times communication With and between the ventilating pipe and the hood.
In testimony whereof I have aflixed my signature in the presence of two Witnesses.
