IMPROVEMENT IN SUCTlON-TUBES FOR PLANING-MACHINES, ecc.`
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 146,115, dated December 30, 1873 application filed October 27, 1873.
To all whom it 'may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE G. WEsrovEn, of Vernon, Jennings county, Indiana, have invented a new and useful Suction for Con'- veyiu g Dust and Shavings from VVood-Working Machinery, of which the following is a specification My invention relates to improvements in those devices for discharging dust and other light refuse of wood-working machinery, which comprise a tube or trunk in which a partial rarefaction is created by an exhaust-fan, so as to cause au atmospheric current to converge from every direction toward and into the mouth of the tube of sufficient force to carry with it such refuse as fast as it is thrown olf by the machine 5 and myimprovements include a construction of the inlet-tubes near the exhaust-fau, which secures a central, balanced, and equal current or suction on both sides of the fan-shaft, and at the same time secures bearings for the said shaft external to thc dust-passage; a construction of the inlettube, which secures the precipitation, before reaching the fan, o f fragments whose weight V would be liable to injure it; a catcher or `before it enters the fan,'separates into two branches, C C', which again uniteiu a single passage, B', before entering the fan. Through the portion B' the fan-shaft extends centrally, and occupies bearings D D', so secured to the opposing walls of the branched portion as to be external to the dust-passage, and, consequently, free from liability to become choked by passing refuse; while, at the same time, accessible for inspection, lubrication, renewal, etc., without disturl'iing the fan, or even susreachingthe fan, I secure a slower blast by enlcrgement of the tube at some convenient point, H, from which such fragments, as they reach the slower current, drop into a catchspout, I, whence they are discharged, fro1n` time to time, by means of a gate, J. A sloping grating, K, located beyond the spout, may
be provided in addition to the above, so as,
without obstructing the passage of dust, to intercept and precipitate any large fragments not otherwise arrested. This grating may be hinged at k, at its upper edge, and be capable of being raised clear of the passage by means of handle L Vengaging over a catch, M.
I claim herein as new and of my inventionl. The suction-tube B, constructed with branches C C' reunited in a single central passage, B', and serving to support fan-shaft bearings D D' external to the dust-passage, as herein set forth. y
2. In combination with the suction-fan A and tube B, the tube enlargement H, catchspout I, and gate J, substantially as herein described, for the purpose specified.
3. ln combination with the elements H I J,
the oblique grating K, whether hinged or otherwise. i .v
4. In combination with, the suction-fan A and tube B, the hooded and, hoppered catoliboX F G, constructed and operatingas described, for the 'purpose speciiied.
In testimony of which invention I hereunto set Iny hand. c Y GEO. C. VESTOVER.
