To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, DANIEL;MAGNY, citizen of the' Republic of France, residing at Issoudun, Indre, in the Republic of France, 5 have invented new and useful Improve,- ments in Installations 'forxthe Washing and Combing of Pigs .Bristles (for which I have filed applications in France, July 16, 1917,
granted October 15, 1918, under No. 1895 10 586, and Germany, July 5, 1920, granted March 18, 1922, under No. 353,550), of which the followingis a specification.
This invention relates to an apparatus or installation for the washing and combingof moistened-or scalded pigs bristles.
The accompanying drawings set forth by way of example various embodiments. of
this invention, wherein Fig. 1 is a side elevation of the whole installation. i Fig. 2 is a front view of a wheel or drum used for disentangling and washing the bristles. l i
Fig. 3 is a plan view of a machine for washing and for assembling the bristles in parallel disposition.
Fig. i is aside elevation'of a combing machine which likewise formspart of the installation.
ation of the wheel represented in Fig. 2.
Figs. 6 and 7 are views respectively in plan and in section on the line 7-7 of con veyor chains for the machines shown n Fig. 1, in the portion wherein they are in contact.
Fig. 8 is a sectional viewshowing the combs of the combing machine.
Fig. 9 is a detail view of one of the comb.- 1
ing units, on the same plane as Fig. 1.
To commence the operation, the raw bristles are introduced between the radial members of the wheel in the direction of the axis, and by reason of the rotation of the said wheel in the direction of the arrow marked a (Fig. 1) and of the internal teeth A thereof, the bristles are washed and disentangled within a tank a filled wit-h water, passing thence b their own weight between the bars 1% whereby. they may be taken up from the bottom of the said tank during the rotation of the wheel 2 by the external forked members C in small piles and automatically dropped into thereceptacle Fig. 5 is a detail view showing the oper- 1 9, by means of-the stop-piece. D which trips up ai'ocking member]?! secured to the shaft D carrying the forked members O (Fig.5);

in the water and Y-thereby. draws along the bristles and keeps them in movement, the
latter being picked up during their passage by the'forked members G provided with "saw-teeth whose form :is'shown in 1 and which deposit them in the inclined troughsH, the shaft supportingthe, said forked members being given to this effect a reciprocating motionin the arcof a cit- 1- cle. The bristles thus spread upon the-said, inclined troughs are then pushed by the rake-Ii under. the pressing-member J (Fig.
4) and are thereby collected in abunch ac A rotating mill: 'F With. radial arms is. caused to rotate continually cordingto what is termedfwet combing The said pressing 'memberi J as well as,
the shaft carrying the forked members: receive their reciprocatingmotlon byymeans branches N pivoted to. the frame N, the i said frame 'bein raised at each movement .by the sprmgs. 1). By reason of 1 this motion, the pressing membe'rJ .is alternately raised and lowered. Two'springs (Figs. 1 and 4e) secured"to the upper por 'tions' of the said frame are usedxto -absorb I the shocks produced by the sudden lifting of. the frame. The bristles are 'Ttheni Eta-ken 3 out by hand by a workman who'depositsthesame upon the sprocket chains Q, which latterareus'edto feed the bristls-i-ntoithe combing machine 4.
Upon their entire passage through the combing machine the bristles maintained at the middle part thereof by the sprocket chain Q, and the sprocket chains Q which pass over the toothed wheels and NV, are combed on each side of the said chains while passing through the machine by the combs R which rotate in a direction perpendicular to the path of the chains in such manner as to comb the bristles on each side of the chains both above and below, the shafts thereof being actuated by the gear wheels S (see Figs. 1, 4, 6 and 7). The bristles then descend in the combed state upon two slides T T disposed below and in the prolongation of the chains Q". Above each of the comb shafts B there is disposed a shaft Y supporting clearing combs U keyed on said shafts Y. Each of the shafts Y is actuated by means of a rod V secured on a plate at the end of the shaft in such manner that the latter is imparted an angular reciprocating movement. By these means the teeth of the combs R and U are adapted to intermesh, whereby the combs R- are cleaned from the bristles which may remain attached thereto. The operation is completed in this manner. After this stage, the raw bristles may be straightened at once or may be placed in the sulphur apparatus if white bristles are required.
The hereinbefore described installation is particularly applicable to the preparation of scalded pigs bristles.
With the present machine, two workmen can effect a daily production of two hundred kilogrammes of Washed and combed bristles, that is'to say two men are enabled to produce as high an output with this machine as fifteen men occupied with carrying out like production by hand. By giving greater dimensions to the various parts of the apparatus a still greater yield could be obtained. Furthermore, no waste material is produced.
Having now described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. An installation for the washing and combing of moistened or scalded pigs bristles comprising in combination a tank, a washing drum therein provided with teeth and bars into which the raw bristles are introduced, a washing receptacle, washing liquid in said receptacle, a mill with radial arms rotating in said receptacle inclined troughs for straightening the bristles delivered by said mill, means for pressing said bristles, means for combing said bristles and means for actuating said drum, mill and pressing means.
2. An installation for the washing and combing of moistened or scalded pigs bristles comprising in combination a tank, a washing drum therein provided with teeth and bars into which the raw bristles are introduced, a washing receptacle, washing liquid in said receptacle, a mill with radial arms rotating in said receptacle, inclined troughs for straightening the bristles delivered by said mill, a pressing member having a reciprocating motion, means for combing said bristles and means for actuating said drum, mill and pressing member.
3. An installation for the Washing and combing of moistened or scalded pigs bristles comprising in combination a tank, a washing drum therein provided with teeth and bars into which the raw bristles are introduced, a washing receptacle, washing liquid in said receptacle, a mill with radial arms rotating in said receptacle, inclined troughs for straightening the bristles delivered by said mill, means for pressing said bristles, endless chains receiving the bristles from said troughs, cooperating endless chains receiving the bristles delivered by the aforesaid chains and holding said bristles tight together, rotating combs for combing the ends of said bristles extending out of said chains and means for actuating said drum, mill, pressing member, chains and combs.
4. An installation for the washing and combing of moistened or scalded pigs bristles comprising in combination a tank, a washing drum therein provided with teeth and bars into which the raw bristles are introduced, a washing receptacle, washing liquid in saidreceptacle, a mill with radial arms rotating in said receptacle, inclined troughs for straightening the bristles delivered by said mill, means for pressing said bristles, endless chains receiving the bristles from said troughs, cooperating endless chains receiving 'the bristles delivered by the aforesaid chains andholding said bristles' tight together, rotating combs for comb ing the ends of said bristles extending out of said chains, cleaning combs having a reciprocating motion, and means for actuating said drum, mill, pressing member, chains and combs.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.
DANIEL .MAGNY.
