EDWARD GLEASON, OF DORGHESTER, MASSACHUSETTS.
REVOLVING- BOTTLE-CASTER.
Speecaton of Letters Patent No. 18,740, dated December 1, 1857.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD GLEAsoN, of Dorchester, in the county of Norfolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Revolving Bottle-Casters; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a vertical central section of my improvement. Fig. 2 is an inverted plan of the same; the base of the impleinentbeing removed.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts in the two figures.
This invention relates to an improvement on a revolving bottle caster formerly patented by me; the Letters-Patent bearing date Oct. 21st, 1856.
The invention consists in having the device by which the doors of the caster are turned arranged separately so as to have no connection whatever with the body of the caster, so far as the rotation of said body is concerned.
The object of the invention is to render the movement of the caster and doors independent of each other, so that either may be directly moved or turned as desired, without at all depending upon the movement of the other.
To enable those skilled in the art to fully understand and construct my invention, I will proceed to describe it.
A, Fig. l, represents the base of the caster, which may be of any proper form; and B represents the body of the caster, the bottom of which has rollers (a) attached to it, which rollers fit and work in an annular groove (o) in the base.
C is a rod which is placed centrally within the body B; the upper end of said rod having a handle or knob D, attached, and the lower end having a rod (c) attached, which rod passes through the center of the base A, and has a nut (cl) upon its lower' end; said nut securing the body and base together. The body B is allowed to rotate freely on the base A.
E, represent doors which are of niche form; each being pivoted centrally to the body B, and forming its sides; any proper number of doors being used. Each door has a socket (e) at its lower end, to receive the bottles and retain them within the niches. The lower pivots (g) of the doors E pass through the bottom A1 of the body of the caster, and have each a pinion (it) placed on them. These pinions gear into a wheel F, which is placed loosely on the rod (c) g and said wheel F has a segment rack (d1) formed on it, near its center, into which rack a pinion (el) gears, said pinion being on the inner end of a rod or arbor which passes through the side of the bottom A1, and has a knob on its outer end.
From the above description of parts, 1t will be seen that the body B, of the caster may be turned independently of the doors; and the doors, by turning the rod or arbor (f) may be turned without affecting the body B.
In the caster formerly patented by me, the movements of the body and the doors were connected; both being actuated by turning a single rod or handle. This arrangement, although convenient when persons are accustomed to them, is very embarrassing at first, as the doors must be either fully opened or closed before the body can be turned and consequently it frequently occurs that several essays are made before the desired movement is obtained. But by the improvement herein described, this obliection is obviated.
I do not claim, separately and broadly, the revolving doors E, nor the revolving body B. But
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The combination of the pinions (l1.) (It) (il.) (each moving a caster door and cruet) and the wheel F with the pinion (c) of the rod or arbor (f), the said pinion (e) gearing into a segment rack (cl) in the wheel F as set forth, so that when this combination is actuated through the knob (i), the caster cruets and doors to which they are attached, may be rotated independently of the rotation of the body B of the caster.
EDWARD GLEASON.
