IMPROVEMENT IN CORN-BALL PRESSERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 189,074, dated April 3, 1877 application filed July 19, 1876.
my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical central section, and Fig. 3 is a central cross-section.
Like letters refer to like parts.
In Fig. 1, A is a circular base-block, attached to the bench by means of a-clamp and setscrew, f. A is a circular head-block, secured to two rods, 12]), which extend through openings in the base block A into a cross-piece, g. H is a foot-treadle attached to the crosspiece g, for the purpose of operating the movable end block A. e e are spiral springs around the slide-rods b b, to keep the end block A in its position. B and B are cupmolds, attached, respectively, to the headblocks A and A, in such a manner that when brought together they will fit perfectly and form a spherical opening. D is a tube or cylinder of proper size for gaging the amount of corn required to fill the cup-molds A and A, and convey the same to the molds.
The mode of operating my machine is as follows: The gage-tube D is first filled with the prepared corn, and then placed directly over the cup-mold B. Pressure is then applied by means of the treadle H, and the cupinold B is brought down into the gage-tube D, pressing the corn into the concave or cupshaped ends of the molds B and B, and forming a ball of the materials. When the pressure is removed the spiral springs b b force the end block A back to its original position, the gage-tube D is removed, and the machine is again ready for operation.
Having described my invention, What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent,
. The machine for making pop-corn balls,
consisting of movable head-block A, stationary' base A, with cup-molds B B securedthereto, rods 12 b, rigidly secured at one end to head-block A, passing loosely through base A, and secured at bottom to cross-bar g, spiral springs e e, encompassing the rods b b, and keeping the blocks A A asunder, treadle H, clamp f, and separate or detached gage-cup D, all constructed, arranged, and adapted to operate as and for the purposes set forth and shown.
CHARLES E. VANKEUREN.
