NUMA J. FELIX, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
IM PROVEMENT IN ASH-SIFTERS.
Specification forning part of Letters Patent No. 178,618, dated June 13, 1876; application filed April 18, 1876.
To all whom it may concern g Be it known that -I, NUMA J. FELIX, of New York city, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Ash-Sifter, of which the following` is a specifi- In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 represents a top view, with lid partly broken off; and Figs. 2 and 3 are, respectively, Vertical longitudinal and transverse sections of my inproved ash-sifter.
Similar letters of reference indicate correv sponding parts.
are conveyed along a,hinged gate into a bottom drawer, while the coal is dropped. by swinging the gate over to the other-side into an adjoining drawer on the release of the screen, which is locked again to the box by the swingingback of the gate.
In the drawing, A represents the outer box or case-of my improved ash-sifter, which is closed by a tightly-fitting lid, B, hinged to the same. A sliding box, G, with a hinged and locked screen, O', is reciprocated by a sliding rod, D, on side guide-rails a of box A, rod D passig to the outside of the box, and having a knob or button, by which the screen is readily shaken for the sifting of the ashes. The hinged screen C' is locked by a pin and catch-hook, b, of the sliding rod D, or springcatch and cam, or other suitable device to the box 0, to be released for dropping the screen by turning the rod D. A guard-wire, d, at
the under side of screen G', serves to raise gate, E, that may be swung by a front button attached to its pivot-pin or shaft from one side to the other, the gate to form contact with the side walls of the box, and be supportedin inclined position by the same. Two sliding drawers, F, are arranged below the gate E, at the bottom of box A, for the purpose of taking up the ashes and coal. The coalashes are placed in the reciprocatig screen-box and shaken for sitting, the ashes dropping and passing along the gate into the box not covered by the same. When the sifting operation is completed the gate. is swung over to cover the ash-box, and leave' the other box open for the dropping of the coal, which is accomplished by releasing the hinged screen. By swinging the gate back the screen is carried up again and locked to the sliding box, which is then ready to be charged again. When the coal-ashes are sifted the drawers,
with the unburned coal pieces and the ashes,
may be removed.
As the box is closed in all its parts, no dust can escape during sifting, so that the sifter may be used at any place without annoyanc'e, the setting of the gate and screen being accomplished from the outside without opening the lid. The sifter is of compact shape, quickly operated, and may, on account of the simplicity of its construction, be cheaply manufactured.
Having thusdescribed my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination, with close outer box A B, having two lower drawers, of the box O, having hinged Slide-screen O guard-wire d, and the hinged gate E, arranged substantially as and for the purpose specified.
NUMA J. `FELIX.
