IMPROVEMENT IN TOLL-TAKERS FOR GRlST-MILLS.
' Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 132,302, dated October 15, 1872.
I To allwhom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM W. MCGAU- LEY, of Fancy Farm, in the county of Graves and State of Kentucky, have invented an Improved Toll-Taker, of which the following is a specification The invention relates to grain-mills; and consists in combining with the ordinary wheel attachment, provided with as many buckets as there are fractions of which the desired toll forms one, a shaker that empties the grain into the buckets and an intermediate ratchet that is carried by the wheel and operates the feed-spout.
Figure 1 is a vertical section; Fig. 2 is a top view with the hopper removed; and Fig. 3 is a transverse section of the bucket-wheel.
A represents the frame of the toll-attach Inent; B, the hopper; O, the feed-spout; D, a wheel rotated by a shaft, D E, the discharge-spout; and F G, the grain-receptacles.
The wheel D has two disks, (1 d, on one of which is a ratchet, 61 and between which are formed six equal-sized buckets, 61 H is a funnel, fitted in a recess of one side of disk, connecting with one of the buckets, and discharging into spout E. This spout is pivoted in the middle and reversible by strapI and lever J, so as to empty alternately into apartments f f of receptacle F. K is a detent which acts upon ratchet d and prevents any back motion of the wheel D, while L is a drivewheel, which may be operated by any suitable power. The feed-spout O is rigidly attached to a rock-shaft, c, which is journaled in frame A.
The operation is as follows: The wheel D being set in motion, and the grain which is to be ground for any particular person or persons being placed in hopper B, the ratchet d rises and drops feed-spout 0, so as to produce a continuous feed of grain into the revolving buckets 0?. These six buckets receiving an equal proportion of the grain, onesixth of it passes into funnel H, is emptied into discharge-spout E, and thence into receptacle F. This is the millers toll. The other five-sixths of the grain is discharged from the buckets into the receptacle G, or, in practice, into a hopper or channel connected with the mill burrs or grinders.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The rotary bucketed wheel, provided with the ratchet for operating the feed-spout, as described.
2. The subject-matter of above claim, in combination with discharge-spout E and receptacles F G, as and for the purpose set forth.
To the above specification of my invention I have signed my name this the 20th day of August, A. D. 1872. 4
WILLIAM W. MOUAULEY.
