REVOLVI NG DRIER Filed June 20, 1929 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Invnior 5567? al lr gawm' A iio mey Patented Jan. 14, 1930 PATENT OFFICE ALBERT C. WARD, OF GANONSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA REVOLVING DRIER Application filed June 20,
The present invention relates to driers adapted primarily for use in the pottery industry and has for its principal obj eet to provide a drier composed of a plurality of drier shelves upon which the pottery, chinaware, or other articles may be placed and also to provide astructure for rotatably supporting said drying shelves.
A further object of the invention is to provide a revolving drier of this character which may be mounted in any desired position adj acent the pottery kiln with the vertically disposed rows of shelves supported for rotation about a central post so that the pottery,
chinaware and the like may be spaced upon the shelves by a workman positioned at one side of the drier and as one side of the shelves are filled, the drier may be rotated by hand until the entire drier has been filled with the pottery for the purpose of drying the same.
A further important object of the invention is to provide means for supporting the shelves upon the centrally disposed post so that the weight of the pottery at one side of the drier will not overbalance the drier.
A still further important object of this invention is to provide a device of this character of a simple and practical construction which is compact in arrangement, strong and durable, relatively inexpensive to manufacture and install in operative position, and otherwise well adapted for the purposes-for which the same is intended.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent as the descriptionproceeds,. when considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, in which: Figure 1 is a top plan view.
Figure 2 is a vertical transverse sectional view.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary sectional view through one of the supporting brackets for the shelves. I
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken along a line H of Figure 2.
Figure 5 is a fragmentary sectional view through one of the brackets for the shelves taken substantially on a line 55 of Figure 3, and,
1929. Serial No. 372,474.
Figure 6 is a sectional view through one of the braces for the bracket.
Referring to the drawings in detail, wherein for the purpose of illustration 1 have disclosed a preferred embodiment of the invention, the numeral 5 designates generally a base from which a post 6 extends upwardly therefrom. The post is of a rounded formation in cross section and at its upper end rotatably supports a sleeve 7 with a cap 8 threaded on the upper end of the sleeve for securing a ball bearing assembly 9 in position at the top of the post forfacilitating the rotation of the sleeve and the cap therein.
A plurality of I-beams 10 extend radially from the upper end of the sleeve and to the outer ends of said I-beams are suspended vertical members 11 disposed in spaced parallel relation with the post and terminating at their lower ends above the surface upon which the post is supported. From the lower end of the sleeve 7 braces 12 extend upwardly to the corner of the I-beams 10 and the vertical members 11, said braces being attached to corner braces 13 suitably secured in the upper corners between the I beams and the vertical members.
Adj acent the inner ends of the braces 12 are also attached braces 1 1 which extend downwardly and are bolted or are otherwise suitably secured to the vertical members 11. In this manner it will be apparent that the vertical members-are rigidly supported so as to prevent springing or sagging of the lower ends of the vertical members or of the outer ends of the I-beams 10.
The vertical members 11 are preferably of a channelled formation with their channelled portion disposed outwardly and within which is inserted the inner ends of a plurality of horizontally disposed and vertically spaced arms 15, which are also preferably constructed of a channelled formation. The arms 15 are supported in horizontal position by braces 16 having their sides welded or otherwise secured to the sides of the vertical member 11 and extended upwardly beneath the arms 15.
The parts of the invention referred to above are preferably constructed of iron or other 10 suitable rigid metal and the parts are secured to each other in rigid position in any mannerwell known to the art.
To the upper side of each of the arms 15 is placed radially extending beams 17, preferably constructed of wood and bolted or otherwise secured to the arms 15 by bolts 18 or the like. The beams extend outwardly from the ends of the arms a considerable distance and support shelving 19 also of wood at their outer ends. The shelving is preferably arranged in polygonal formation, as clearly illustrated in Figure 1 of the drawing and is nailed or otherwise suitably secured to the beams 17.
By constructing the shelving 19 and the beams 17 of wood, the moisture from the pottery placed upon the shelving will not afiect the metal parts of the drier.
The drier may be constructed of any number of shelves and it will be apparentthat while the attendant is placing the pottery at one side of the drier and gradually turning the same as the pottery and chinaware is being placed thereon, that by the time the drier is filled-that the articles first placed on the shelves will become dried and then removed so that additional articles may be placed thereon. i
If desired, steam pipes or other artificial drying means may be placed beneath the lowermost shelf to facilitate the drying action. By providing a sleeve for the post which ex-. tends considerably below the top of the post and bracing the supporting structure for the shelves from the lower end of said sleeve it will be apparent that one side of the drier will not sag due to the weight of the pottery placed thereon.
It is obvious coming-within the scope of the appended claims may be resorted to if desired. a Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is: i
1.. A drier'of the class described compris-' ing a base, a post extending upwardly therefrom, a sleeve rotatably supported on the up per end of the post with its lower end extending substantially below the upper end of the post, I-beams extending radially from the upper end of the sleeve, vertical members suspended from the outer ends of said I-beams, arms extending outwardly from said vertical members in spaced vertical relation, shelves supported on the outer ends of said arms and braces for the outer ends of said I-beams and said vertical members extending outwardly from the lower end of said sleeve.
2. A drier of the class described compris ing a base, a post extending upwardly there from, a sleeve rotatably arranged at the upper end of the post, a cap threaded on the upper end of the sleeve for retaining a ball bearing assembly between the cap and'the top of the post, whereby to facilitate the rotation of said sleeve, I-beams extending radially from the upper ends of said sleeve, vertical members suspended from the outer ends of said I-beams, a plurality of arms carried by each of said vertical members and extending radially therefrom in vertically spaced relation, beams extending outwardly from said arms, shelves supported on the outer ends of said beams in vertically spaced relation, a brace member. for the outer ends of said I- beamsextending upwardly from the lower portion of said sleeve and a brace member for said vertical. members extending outwardly from the inner end of said first-named brace member.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
