Specification of Letters mea such as pasteboard, straw board, paper, "etc.
The viscous, somewhat syrupy, grease-proof coating material, containing, for example,
gelatin, glycerin, and water having a tendency to entrap and hold air-bubbles, is applied in warm, liquid condition which causes,.or tends to cause the expulsion of air- I bubbles from the pores of the fibrous walls of the receptacles rendering difficult the application of a smooth even coating free from holes therethrough or various imperfections therein because if any bubbles or'air-pockets are permitted to remain on the surface of the wall beneath the coating, the latter,
in contracting during cooling, forms a thin film which is likely to break over such bubbles on handling producing serious defects or uncoated spots atsuch points, thus destroying the desired absolute grease-proof condition.
' these objectionable bubbles, which, of course,
owing to the viscous or syrupy consistency I of the coating-material have a decided tendency to form and to persist. Furthermore, such coating should be thin by reason f the cost of its in edients which obviously renders more di cultthe securing of the perfect results required. The use of the new appliance and its method of operation, however,-meet all these needs.
In employing the preferred embodiment of the invention the fibrous or more or less' pervlous cyl1ndr1cal container is revolved" while inverted,its bottom-wall being uppermost and its open mouth disposed down ward, and during such rotation a plurality of streams of the Warm, viscous coating solution, all preferably in the same vertical y -1ution, thus more effectively throwingofi plane, are played in surplus quantity in in- Patented Dec. a, grate.
Application filed December 18, 1918. Serial No; 267,236.
clined directions on to different portions of the inner surfaces of the container, the excessdraining down out of the open mouth and being thrown outwardly'therefrom by centrifugal force away from the bearing for the pasteboard or paper can holder or support. All the streams are conveniently delivered under pressure from a single, multistream nozzle located below and at one side of the can, one stream striking the under surface of the bottom of the can (now at the top because of the reversed position of the can) slightly beyond the center so that there will be no interference with the ready outward flow of the material over the surface from the point of striking due to its initial slightly rearwardly of the stream to cover the exact central portion. A second of the streams is directed at the joint between such velocity supplemented by centrifugal force, I a small but sufficient quantity working bottom-wall and the cylindrical side-wall andone or two more streams are played at different heights on the revolving side-wall. These several streams act cumulatively or 'conjointly, to supply a surplus or excess quantity of the coating" liquid which flows outwardly on the under face of the inverted bottom and down the side-Wall, the recep- 7 -tacle draining at the same time that it is being coated.
Owing to the action of centrifugal force the heavier liquid is'held or pressed directly against the inner surface of the revolving wall thereby thoroughly coating it, while the lighter bubble-charged portion of the liquid flows down the inner surface of flushed away by the excess material, the
drained liquid, of course, being saved and used over again. I v
' The discharge openings of the nozzle must be of the proper size as the liquid streams should not be so small as to twist and entrap .such coating, the bubbles being washed or preventing a thickened drip edge of the can.
In order that those skilled in this art may have a full and complete understanding of this invention and its various functional and structural advantages, I have illustrated a preferred and desirable embodiment of the same in the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification and throughout the various views of which like reference characters refer to the same parts.-
In these drawings: v
Figure 1 is a partial elevation and partial section of the entire appliance;
Fig. 2 is a vertical section on line 2-2 of Fig 1;
Fig. 3 is a plan view of that portion of the appliance shown in Fig. 2;
Fig. 4 is a section online -44 of Fig. 1; and
Fig. 5 illustrates the lock or.latch device for the container or can holder.
In these drawings I have characterized the pasteboard, fiber, paper, or other more or less permeable or penetrable container or can with the reference character 10, and from Fig. 1, in which such can is shown in central longitudinal section, it will be clear that such vessel or container has the usual cylindrical side-wall 11 and an inset or inserted cup-shaped bottom-wall 12, the particular style of container, however, being of practically no importance.
Such can is adapted to be held by friction in inverted position with its open mouth downward in the grasp'of a plurality of bow-springs 13, 13 on the inside of a ring or annular holder or support 14,' somewhat larger in size than the can it is adapted to accommodate, mounted fiXedlyon a pairof parallel spaced arms 15, 15, pivoted at 16, 16, to the upper end portions of a pair of upright rods 17, 1S screwed at their lower ends into holes in a plate 19 fastened on the top surface of the hub 20 of a'horizontally-disposed grooved,
A belt 28 drives pulley 21 from a similar driving pulley 29 loose on an upright shaft 30 revoluble in suitable bearings 31, 31, and rotated by means of a worm-wheel 32 revolved by a worm (not shown) on a powershaft 33 rotated by a pulley 34 driven from any suitable source of power, such as an electric-motor, by a belt (not shown). Shaft 30 is adapted to" be operatively connected to and disconnected from pulley '29 by aclutch 35 of any ordinary or suitable SQIKIQUHO operated by a link 36 pivoted thereto and to" an arm 37 fulcrumed at 38 on the standard 3.9 on the table top. 1
The companion or cooperative clutch-ele- Iments 35 are normally held separated or inoperative by a spring 40 encircling an upright rod 41 bearing'at its upper end against the under surface of arm 37, the spring being interposed between the table top and a collar or disk 42 on the rod, whereby the spring tends to lift the rod and elevate the arm 37 thus raising one element of the clutch free from the other. Rod 41. is vertic-ally slidable in a bearing 43 mounted on.
the under face of the table top and its lower end is bent laterally at 44 to provide a finger cooperating with a notched disk 45 on ahorizontal cam-shaft 46 revolublc in bearings 47, 47, and'rotated by a WOI'IYl-Wl'IQ-Gl 48 thereondriven by a worm 48 (see Fig. 2) on a vertical shaft 49 rotatable in bearings 50. 50 and equipped with a. pulley 51 driven by a belt 52 co-acting with a grooved pulley portion 53 of the hub of pulley 29.
Obviously, therefore, when arm 37 is de pressed momentarily by hand clutch 35 is rendered operative, the can is rotated by the means described, and the clutch cannot again become inoperative or disconnected until the notched disk 45 has'made one complete revolution, finger 44 in the meantime holding rod 41 depressed by riding on the surface of the disk 45. Thus in each actuation the can to be coated will make a predetermined number of revolutions, its rotation will be automatically stopped when, under the action of spring 40, finger 44 ascends loo into the recess of disk 45 as soon as it comes 1 into register therewith.
The coating or spraylng mechanism .com-
prises the following instrumentalities. On thejupper screw-threaded end of the upright pipe 22 and below .the can and at one side of its center, so as not to interfere with the upward and outward swinging of the can hereinafter described,- a multi-jet nozzle 60 is fitted having four openings or discharge apertures through which the coating liquid is played under pressure onto the inner surfacesof the can during its rotation about its own axis. As is clearly shown in Fig. 1, one of these inclined streams 61 im-' pinges against the under surface of the can bottom-wall 12 just beyond its geometrical center, a second stream 62 plays into the corner where the side and bottom walls meet,
and the two remaining streams 63 and 64 engage the inner surface of the cylindrical wall at difi'erent points or heights, the four streams preferably being located in substantially the same vertical plane.
The viscous or cohesive coating liquid is maintained warm in a hot-water-jacketed reservoir orsupply tank 65 from which it is forced to the nozzle through a pipe 66 extending nearly to the bottom of the tank,
a connecting pipe 67, a spring-closing valve 68, a hand-regulating valve 69, and pipe 22 by compressed air entering thetank above the liquid level through an admission or pressure pipe 70.
The nozzle anda portion of the can recoming into contact with the driving mechanism. below the table by a stationary, conical shield 74 secured to or forming part of the nozzle mounting. Below this is a larger guard 75 mounted on and rotatable'with the supporting posts 17 and 18 and plate 19 and having a marginal depending flange or rim 76 overlapping and outside of flange 73.
The coating liquid, in casing 71 discharged from the can drains therefrom through a pipe 77 into a settling or separating tank 78, maintained at the desired temperature by a suitable hot-water jacket, from which it is forced by a pump 79 of convenient construction into the supplytank 65, whereby none of the liquid is lost.
In this tank 78 the enveloped or inclosed air-bubbles to a large extent are permitted to separate from the liquid and inasmuch as the liquid pumped into the tank 65 is drawn from the lower part of the receptacle 78, such portion is free from froth or bubbles.
Cam-shaft 46, as is clearly illustrated,..is
provided with a suitably-shaped cam 80 coacting with a right-angle extension 81 of the stem 82 of the, self-closing valve 68, whereby the valve-Will be opened down- 'w'ardly soon after the rotation of the cam begins by the cam depressing parts 81 and 82, the cam being so shaped that the valve is permitted to close automatically by the action of its spring (not shown) beforethe cans revolution ceases.
Thus, under usual conditions, the pin is held in such recess by the action of spring 91, locking the holder against turning on its hinge mounting 16, 16 but in no way interfering with its rotation about its own axis. To release or unlock the ring holder and its can upon the completion of the liquid application, cam-shaft 46 is equipped with a cam 96 acting on a spring-depressed rod 97 vertically slidable in a bearing member 98 fastened to the under surface of the table top, and carrying at its upper end a slightly-inclined, curved shoe or plate 99 with which the lower end of rod 90 is adapted to coact. When rod 97 is raised by the cam, holder 14 and its can 10 are unlocked and they are free to swing into the inclined or more elevated and outward position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2. Upon cessation of the rotation, the holder and its can rock or swing down to a' nearly normal upright position by reason of their.
to be coated upside down in the annular holder or support 14in which position it is held by friction by the inwardly pressing action of the plurality of bow springs 13. Then such attendant depresses the lever or arm 37 which clutches the constantly-rotat- 111g shaft 30 to the twopulleys 29 and 53 causing their rotation and by the connecting belts driving hollow shaft or sleeve 20 and cam-shaft 46. The descent of arm 37 forcibly lowers rod 41 removing its finger 44 from the recess in disk .45 which, of course, begins to turn with shaft 46. Obviously, the release of the manual pressure on arm 37 now has. no influence on the clutch which for a definite period is maintained active by finger 44 riding on the edge of its companion disk. This rather rapid I'OtELtlOll. of and its holder willv continue until the cam-shaft has completed one revolution, whereupon the finger rlses into the notch of disk 45 under the influence of spring 40 releasing the clutch and look- ,ing the cam-shaft against rotation, but of course the rendering of the clutch inactive causes a cessation of such rotation.
Soon after the can begins to rotate on lts own axis in this manner, cam 80 opens valve 68 and the warm, viscous, liquid, coating material is discharged under pressure for a definite period of time through thenozzle openings against the inner surfaces of the can in excess quantity to assure complete coating, the surplus flowing down the wall of the can and being thrown out of its mouth by centrifugal force.
By way of example, I may mention that in actual practice I have found that two hundred revolutions per minute for the can is suitable and that the streams of liquid may .to the action of centrifugal force on the heavier liquid, not charged with such air globules, it is pressed or forced against the inner surface of the can leaving the other air-laden or more frothy portion inwardly thereof, which latter is washed or rinsed away by the surplus flowing down the surface of the container. Stated somewhat differently the liquid is subjected to the ac-v tion of centrifugal force to separate the same into two parts or layers, one free from airbubbles and the other containing such globules. At the same time the former heavier stratum is pressed by the same force against the surface to be coated and the lighter air-charged part is flowed or flushed away.
The stream 61 after striking the under surface of the inverted bottom of the can,
continues its outward flow uninterruptedly effectively coating the surface to which it is applied. There is just enough of such stream which spatters or flows rearwardly to cover the exact central portion of the surface, which might otherwise remain uncoated. If such stream were directed at the exact center of the S111 face there would likely be an excess backward flow with possibly an undesirable trapping or encompassing of air particles. Stream 62 assures that an adequate quantity of the liquid will reach the corner or joint, and streams 63 and 6 1 supplement the work of each other and of the other streams. Inasmuch as all of these streams are in the same vertical plane their individual excess quantities of coating liquid flow down in the same general path and unitedly and conjointly assure the complete coating operation without air-bubble defects or other detrimental blemishes. The crosssectional sizes of these streams are so chosen as to eliminate as much as possible their tendency to entrap, envelop, or imprison airbubbles, and the number of streams employed may depend to some extent on the desirable sizes of streams to be used on cans of different capacities and dimensions.
At the proper time cam 80 permits the valve 68 to close and thereafter cam 96 raises shoe 99 so that rod 90 during its rofrom the interior of the can and prevents the formation of a thickened drip edge on the can. In actual practice such whirling of the can may continue for fifteen to twenty seconds to advantage not only throwing off the excess or surplus material and bubbles but possibly also smoothing and evening the coating in so doing. When this operation has continued the predetermined time, the notch in disk 45 arrives in register with finger 44 thus allowing rod 411 to ascend under the pressure of spring 40 thereby separating the clutch-elements, stopping the rotation of all parts except shaft 80 and its guiding mechanism, and. permitting the holder and its era to swing down to a nearly normal position as shown in Fig. 1, the holder becoming again latched or locked to its support by a slight pressure of the fingers when removing the treated can.
In this simple but effective way, the porous or fibrous containersmay be greaseproofed by a suitable coating free from blemishes or defects.
By those skilled in this art it will be appreciated that this invention is not limited and restricted to the precise and exact mechanical details of construction presented because these.may be'varied within comparatively wide limits without departure from the heart and essence of the invention and without the sacrifice of any of its substantial benefits and advantages. Stated somewhat differently, the invention is susceptible of a variety of embodiments and is,
