'THOMAS ARKELL, O'F BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
, IMPROVEMENT IN PEA-sHELLINe MACHINES.
Specification forming partof Letters Patent No. 176,767, dated May 2, 1876 application led November 12, 1815. I
To all whom it may concern:
'Be it known that I, THoMA-s ARKELL, of the city of Brooklyn, county ofKings and State of New York, have invented an Improved Machine for Shelling Pease, of which the following is a specication, the accompanyii'lg drawings making a part of the same.
Figure l is a perspective view of the Inachine embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is an end View.
My invention relates to the following combination: A, Fig. 1, is acase of suitable size and form, containing a drawer, B, rollers U O, stands D D, removable screen S, and driving-wheel E, arranged in a proper manner for the purpose herein set forth.
The rollers O O are constructed in the following manner, viz: One roller is provided with some hard, rough substance, with which itis covered, (apiece of thick canvas saturated with shellac being preferred by me,) for the purpose ot' morereadily drawing the pod containing the pease between the same and the counter-roller in the process of shelling. The counter-roller is covered with some elastic material, rubber being the most satisfactory for that purpose. The diameter of the rollers should be such as' to allow their surfaces to approach each other near the line where they are most closely contiguous at an obtuse angle, so that, while the pods are drawn through between the rollers the pease will be pressed ont ofthe pods, and prevented from passing through by the opposing surfaces of the rollers. I thereforemake the rollers u usually from one-halt an inch to an inch in diameter. They are also provided with bearings,
made to work in boxes fitted in the stands D D. The bottom boxes are made fast to the stands, so as to keep the bottom roller inY the same position. The boxes carrying the top roller are movable, sothat the pressure of the rollers upon each other is regulated by setscrewsaa passing through caps b b, secured to the top of the stands D D. The rollers are' also provided with pinions e e, Fig. 2, for the purpose of imparting a uniform motion to the same. A crank or wheel, E, to which the power is applied, is attached to the opposite end of the lower roller.y The stands D l), containing the rollers O O, arey made fast upon one end ofthe case A, the case having a cover iitted within it, so that the surface 0f the same shall be a little below the top of the bottom roller. A netting or grate, g, is fitted into the end of the cover nearest to therollers, through which the shelled pease drop into the drawer B contained in-the case `A. The top of the case A is provided with a/hopper, h,'
in which the pease are placed that are to be shelled. A removable screen, S, is inserted between thestands D D and the railing surrounding the hopper h, and projects over the grate g, so as to prevent the pease from iiying out of the box while being pressed from the pod as they are passed between the rollers.
I do not broadly claim such a machine as is shown in the patent to Gelston Sandford, Octoberv3, 1865, No. 50,278; but
The improved pea-shelling machine, consistin g of the rollers C O, wheel E, box A, having the cover e and grating g, stands DVD, and a removable screen, S, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
