' Application filed November 8, 1929. seri rua eoa'zasj V The present invention relates to a grain.
separator of the character illustrated and described-in myPatents 1,609,188 and 1,722,- 943 andcontemplates an improved construc- [5 tion of means for separating garlic, smut and other extraneous matter from the grain. The invention prov des anovel construc- 1 tion of means for the positive separation of 7 allmaterial lighterthan the material to be 10 cleaned,includingimmature grain, chaff,
smutiand weed'seed.
c r The nature an'd advantagesfof the present invention will be better understood when fthe following detail description isread in connectionwiththe accompanying drawings,
the invention residing in the construction, combination a d arrangement of .parts as c claimed.'- e
- In the drawings forming part of the appli- 2 cation like numerals ofreference indicate wherein I V i c Figure 1 1s a fragmentary side elevatlon of similar parts in the several Views, and
i the machine illustrating the present inven- Y fiong' i c j vFigure 2 is asection view online 2l2 of Figure 1.
V t ,IQReferring to th'e drawings indetail, 10 in- 'dicates generally aportion of the frame of the chutell, into which the garlic. grain and all other extraneous matter are deposited after being pressed in'accordance with the disclosures of mypatents above identified. The
bottom of this chute includes a screen or *traneousmatter clin'gsito the shuttle screen lt'untilit passes to the lower edge of the casing13, whereupon the extraneous matter isremoved from the screen by a'rotarybrush 591115. It willbe noted upon inspectionof Fig machine,.on which is mounted an inclined under surface-of the screen 14 andthereby brushesor removes extraneousmatter from -s the screen into a co'nveyor17, also journaled withinthefcasing 16. The conveyor 17 is of the spiral type, and consequentlyforces the garlic hulls and otherextraneous matter longitudinally through the easing into an outlet or discharge spout 18 at one sideof the machine. ,The spiral conveyor is rotated from any suitable source of ower, the shaft ofwhic'h being provided with a gear 19 which mesheswith a similar gear carried by "the shaft of the brush 15, so that the brush is simultaneously operated with the conveyor. The gear on the shaft of the brush'is indicatedlat 20. l I i i While any suitable means may be employed 2 e for the purpose of reciprocating the screen 14,1 preferably employ a shaft 21journaled in' suitable brackets 22, and this shaft is r0.- tated by a chain and sprocket indicated generally'at Carried by the opposed ends of this shaft are crank arms 24 to which are connected the corresponding extremities, of operating rods 25,, the latter having their outer ends connected with pins 26 projecting laterally from the screen frame 14.
While it is believed that from the foregoingdescription the nature andadvantages of the invention .will be readily apparent,- I desire to have it understoodth'atl do not limit myselffto what is herein illustrated and' de-. scribed, and that such changes may. be resorted -to ;when desired, as fall within the scope of what is claimed."
What I claim is 1. In a separator of thecha-racter degscribed, an inclined chute having aforami- .nated portion in the bottom thereof, a suction casing arranged above said portion, an elongated reciprocatory screen frame mounted for longitudinal movement upon the chute and spaced above the bottom thereof, and 95 against which the relatively light material is held by the suction created within thecasing, f
means for reciprocating said screen, a casing ad acent one end of the chute, a rotatable i, brush mounted 1n said caslng to remove said
