Improvement in Tobacco-Presses.
UNITED STATES PATENT OEE'rcE.
JoHN eATEs, 0E COVINGTON, KENTUCKY.
IMPROVEMENT IN TOBACCO-PRESSES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 131,395, dated September 17, 1872.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN GATES, of Govington, Kenton county, State of Kentucky,
,have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Presses for Forcing Tobacco into Oasks, of which the following is a specification.:
Nature and Objects of Invention.
' ment of the pressure-head upon the tobacco in the cask without the necessity of the employment of any more space around the press than is required to turn the hand-wheel.
Description of the Accompanying Drawing.
The drawin g illustrates in sectional elevation a tobacco-pressin g machine embodying my invention.
General Description.
A is the frame of the machine, and B represents a tobacco-Cask in the process of being n'lled with tobacco. C is a large'revolvingnut which forms a part of or is attached to the large bevel-gear wheel D. The nut shoulders against the under side of the beamv n, which is faced with iron at this point, and is supported by an annular plate or ring, E, whose interior edge fits into a groove, c, turned 'in the nut C. The press-screw F is tted to the interior screw oi' the nut C, and is provided with a cross-head, G, whose ends t over parallel bars H, which serve to prevent the revolution of the screw in the operation of pressing. The pressing-head I is firmly secured to a large head, f, of the screw, and, owing to the great depth of the nut C, and the fact of its having a solid firm connection with the screw, it is always preserved in a perfectly-horizontal position, and the tobacco is, therefore, pressed equally throughout its entire surface. A long sleeve journal-bearing, K, is firmly secured to the frame A, and a shaft, L, is journaled within it, upon one end of Which a pinion, N, is secured, meshinginto the large gear-wh eel D, and upon the other end of which a large hand-wheel, M, is attached by which the press can be conveniently operated by hand, the revolution of the wheel D and nut C giving the vertical movement to the pressinghead I. A
I am aware that cotton-presses and presses for other purposes are in use or known, in many respects very similar to the hereinbefore-described tobacco-press. The latter, however, differs from all other presses known before, in that the devices for preventing the rotation of the screw-spindle are separated from the follower-head in order to adapt the latter to enter the package in which the tobacco is to be packed.
