o'iiiiii application med september is, 1917, serial No. 191,922. niviaea and this eppiieetionmea January 24, 1921-.
To all whom t may concern.'
Be itknownthat I, JOHN F. ANDERSON, a citizen of the United States,- residing at Oakland, in the county ofv rAlameda and State- O'f Cahier-nia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Salting It is the object of the present invention toV previas .a dispensing device yor the charac' 'raboye mentioned which is readily' ap- Flieab'le to' machines of the type shown in- I-ny depending application, above mentioned, andiiihicli is efficientfor its purposes,-rela-v tively cheap to produce, and positive and re}l-i-able'-y its eperat'ions; These and other detail descrliptieiifully` setting'- forth the ad'- v'afntages ofthe invention and its constructiene this specification and the annexed drawings',- the inventionA is disclosed in the forint in whichit is consideredY tol be the battre. invention is not limited te siieiif "beea"use it isfcapabley of hein-gv emb'edied-iii other' forms; and it is to bev under-y stood that in and by the claimsV following' the deseiiptien herein it' is intende-d te @over thewinveiition in whatever-' form it may emh'ed'yyvithiirtlre scope' thereofi Iln"-the drawings which illustrate the invention,
- Figi isa vertical sectional view ofthe saltiiig device, A
Fig. 2 is a section-al eleyationofy the actuating means for the "salmi-g device o'ee'ur below' the' table or conveyor' 6,
3 isa top plan ViewV fo'r the saltiiig dedite showniiii Fig. 1,
Fig. 4 is a transverse sectional view taken substantially on line 4-4 of Fig. 1 and looking. in the direction of the arrows,- and Fig. 5 isi a transverse sectional view' taken strb'stailitially on l-iire y5-#5 of Fig.V 2V andk looking the direction-of the arrows.'
Referring in detail to' the drawings, the' salting devicey comprises `stationary conseriai No. 439,468.
4 at the' upper end of the container and in the base member 5 thereof.
The container 1 is disposed adjacent a chuteI or conveyor 6, over which the cans or packages pass, having suitable guide rails?. Keyed to the shaft 3, and lying prefer-*ably in juXta-relation with the bottom wall 5 of the container', is acircular measuring disk 8- of a diameter less than the interior ofthe container and having a plurality of equis'paced co'ncaved recesses orV notches 9 in its periphery, a ledge 10 being providedY at the bottom of said recesses. Projecting obliquely into the container near the bottom thereof, is a scraper member 11, suitably housed in a casing 12, secured to they exterior wall of the container. VSaid scraper member is of a size and shape as to engage and scrape the inner faces of the recesses 9, as the disk is Vrotated by the shaft 3, and is held in Contact with the walls of the recesses by means of a coil springl 13 surrounding the stem 11a thereof and within the casing 12,'r the outer extremities of the stem 11a pro*- jecting'from the' casing 12 in order that it may be manually manipulated, when occasion arises.
A segmental strip or block 14 is disposed on the bottom wall 5 of the' container and fills the space between the ledge 10 of the disk 8 and the walls of the container and on both sides of the scraper member 11, there being an Opening 15 in the segment 14 through which the scraper member extends in order to engage in the recess' 9. It will be observed from Figuresl 3 and 4 that the ends of the segmental member 14 terminate at substantially diametrically opposite points of tlie container 1, and has its end surfaces bevelled as at 14a to prevent bindthe recess 9 therein, the plate 16 being of a- ].ength substantially corresponding to the segment 14. Thusv it will be seen that for certain distance around, each of the recesses 9 forms an entirely enclosed pocket isolated from the remainder of the container.
The disk 8 rotates in the direction of the arrows indicated in Figs. 3 and Lf-and forwardly of the scraper member 11, an orifice is provided through the member 14, which orifice leads into an outlet or discharge chute 17, secured to the bottom wall of the container and positioned to discharge the salt or other material into the cans or packages P, as they are fed along the chute 6.
A suitable agitator is provided in the container and is keyed to the shaft 3 and consistsof a collar 18 having radially extending arms 19; The agitator is, preferably, positioned slightly above the disk 8 in order that the contents in the container will be continually fed inthe recesses of the measuring disk 8 as they pass from under the plate 16. The shaft 3 may be supported in any'suitable manner such, as for instance, by a collar 19 fast therein and resting on the'chute 6, ormay be supported by a bearing 2O in which the lower end of the shaft is lsuitably journalled.y As illustrated in Fig. 2, the shaft 3 extends below the chute 6 and has provided on its lower end a male coupling 21. A shaft 22 is arranged in vertical alinement with the lower end of the shaft 3 and is provided withy a female coupling member 23 to cooperate with the coupling member 21, these lcoupling members being held together by means of relatively light pins 24, as fully illustrated in Fig. 2. Rot-atably mounted on the shaft 22 is a casting 25 which is positioned adjacentA the ratchet wheels 26 fast on the shaft. The casting has mounted thereon j a spring pressed pawl 27 positioned to engage the ratchet wheels 26. An opposite portion of the casting 25 is provided with a lug 28 to which is connected with one end of an operating link 29,7having a connection with the operating mechanism (not shown) of the canning machine in order that the salting` device will be operated in proper se-V quence of time.
In the operation of the device, cans or packages are yfed successively along the chute 6 and under the discharge spout 17. In the proper sequence of operation of the machine, the casting 25 is partially rotated in the direction of the arrow, causing the pawl 27 to engage the ratchet wheels 26 and rotate the shaft 3 for a distancecorresponding to the length of one of the recesses 9 in the measuring disk 8. Thus the contents of one of the pockets 9, gathered while the pocket is opened to the material in the container, is discharged during the period Vof rotation `of the shaft by the scraper member l1, through the orifice 30 and through the spout 17 into the packages or cans P.
Should the masuring disk 8, or the shaft 3, become clogged, or for any reason refuse to rotate, thepins 24 will be shea'red off or broken when the shaft 22 is again rotated through the link 28, thus releasing the shaft 3 and preventing any possible breakage from occurring.
It will thus be seen from the foregoing that the present device provides a dispensing device for packing or canning machines for discharging a predetermined amount of its contents, and provides such operating means as will prevent serious damage to the mechanism upon failure of it to properly operate or function, while at the same time providing an extremely economical and simple construction.
