T o all lwiz-om t may concern:
Be it known that ll, JOHN E. W'InNEKE, a citizen of the United States. residing at Union, in the county of Franklin and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Measuring Grocerv Bin, of which the following is a specilication.
My invention relates to grocery bins for holding such articles as sugar, coffee, flour, etc., and its principal object is to provide such a bin wherein a predeterminedquantity will be discharged therefrom into a drawer.
A further object of the invention is to provide a bin of this character which includes a hopper for retaining the material to be discharged and a sliding receptacle into which the material flows from the hopper, together with an automatic valve mechanism, which upon4 withdrawal of the drawer will close the outlet opening of the hop? per and reversely upon returning the drawer to normal position opens the valve to permit the drawerto become again filled with the material.
With the preceding and other objects which may become apparent from the following disclosure, the invention consists 1n the novel construction and arrangement of parts and operation to be hereinafter specifically referred to, illustrated and dened inthe sub-joined claim. r.
ln the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a front end elevation of the bin, parts being broken away;
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the same;
Fig. 3 is a similar fragmental view illustrating the drawer in its outward position and the Valve in closed position.
Fig. 4: is a horizontal sectional View taken on line 4-42 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is a perspective of the valve embodied in the invention.
Fig. 6 is a sectional view of the bin.
Fig. 7 is a similar view and taken at rightangles to Figs. 6, and
Fig. 8 is a perspective of one of the element embodied in the combination.
Referring in detail to the drawings wherein like characters of reference denote corresponding parts throughout the several views, the numeral 5 designates a bin or casing provided with a hinged cover 6. Arranged in the bin or casing 5 is a hopper 7 speeiacation oftewel-sV raten. Pammmd gum@ 1,3?, 11922,
Application filed August 18, 1921.
Serial No. 493,297.
having inclined walls 8 provided with a discharge opening 9 at ther lower ends. Screwed to the lower ends of these walls 8 and surrounding the opening 9 is a wear plate 10.
Arranged in the casing 5 below the hopper 7 is a rectangular drawer receiving compartment 11, in which a sliding drawer oi' scoop 12 is mounted. rlhe inner face of `the side walls of the drawer receiving compartment -11 isr provided with longitudinal grooves or guideways 13 at their upper edges, and slidably mounted in these grooves or guideways 13 is a gate valve 14. Depending from the valve 14 is an abutment member 15 adapt-ed to be engaged by the rear end of the drawer or scoop 12 to shift the valve to open position, as illustrated in Fig. 2. ln order to move the valve to closed position upon withdrawal of the drawer or scoop 12, an angularly disposed resilient catch 16 is mountedupon the under face of the gate valve 14, at the forward end thereof adapted to engage in a recess 17 in the inner face of the rear wall or scoop 12. A wear plate 18 embraces the upper edge of this wall and extends within the recess 17.
Assuming the hopper 7 to be filled withl material the saine will be discharged into the drawer or scoop 12. As shown in Figs 2 and 6, the valve 14 is normally in open positionwith the resilient member 16 disposed in advance of the rear wall or scoop or drawer, upon withdrawal of the drawer or scoop the resilient member will engage with the recess 17, and the valve will move forwardly to cover the opening 10 in the hopper, as shown in Fig. 3. After the contents of the drawer have been dumped therefrom,v the latter is slid rearwardly to its normal position and the rear wall thereof contacting with the member 15 moves the valve rearwardly to a'position to one side of the opening 10, as shown in Figs. 2 and 6.
The embodiment of the invention herein illustrated and described is a practical example of the same, but it is to be understood that changes and modifications may be resorted to, and my limits of such modifications are only governed by what is claimed.
lhat l;I claim is:
Theeomb-ination of a bin, of a hopper mounted therein having inclined walls whichv deline a discharge opening at the lower end thereof, a drawer compartment extending transversely of the hopper and v Lemme provided with op osediongitudinei ,1,g;iooves`v end 'ofthe valve be engaged by themen-' e, gate-valve sii ebie 1n the grooves, e deface of the Welt of the drawer, wher/etw to .pending abutment carried by the plete Valve, move the valve to closed position upon Withlo' to be engaged by the rear end of the drawer diawel of the drawer. upon inward movement of the seme to move f In 4testinriony whereof, it ex my. vsigne,-
' the valve to open position, ai resilient enguture.
