The invention relates to an improvement in machines for washing cans and the like, and
tion of certain of the parts of the machine disclosed in said application as hereinafter fully described and particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
The improved can washing machine is illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which Fig. 1 is an elevation of the intake end of the machine, with parts removed in order to show the illustrated parts more clearly; Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation of the discharge end of the machine, the section being taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 9 Fig. 3 is an enlarged section of the means for washing the bottom ofl the cans, the section being taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 9; Fig. 4 is a transl verse section taken onthe line'4--4 of Fig. 10, but on an enlarged scale; Fig. 5 is a detail section taken on the line 5-5 of Fig.` 4; Figs. 6 and 7 taken together are an enlarged elevation of the right hand side of the machine, with the middle section left outand with certain parts removed in order to show the illustrated parts more clearly; Figs. 8 and 9 taken together are a longitudinal section through the complete machine, and showing the arrangement of theA nozzles and of the valves for controlling them in top plan; Fig. 1() is a longitudinal section, on a reduced scale, of the complete machine, and showing more particularly the arrangement of the main driving or actuating means; Fig. l1 is a longitudinal section taken on the line 11-11 of Fig. 12, the view'being taken looking in the direction of the arrow marked 11 in Fig. 1; Fig. 12 is a longitudinal section taken on the line 12-12 of Fig. 11, the view being taken looking in the direction of' the arrow marked 12 in Fig. 1; Fig.
l13 is an elevation, partlyin section, and looking from the intake end of the machine, of the cover advancing means and. ofA the first unit of the valve actuating means; Fig. 14 is an `for 'setting the elevation of a portion of the first unit of the valve actuating means; Fig. 15 is an elevation, looking from the intake end of the machine, of one of the latches of the valve'actuating means; Fig. 16 is a front elevation of the parts shown in Fig. 15; Fig.,17 is a top plan of the parts shown in Fig. 15; Fig.\18 is a view similar to Fig. 15 but looking from the discharge end of the machine; Fig. 19 is a -section taken on the line 19-'19 of Fig. 17;
Fig. 2() is an enlarged section through one of the Huid nozzles and showing it inserted in a can; Fig. 21 is a similar section through one of the steam nozzles and showing it with relation to a can about to descend over it; Fig.-
22 is a transverse section through the air nozzle for drying the cans and showing it inserted in a can; Figs. 23 to 26, inclusive, are detail elevations of a portion of the discharge end of the machine and illustrating the action oi'uprighting a clean and dried can; Fig.,
23 showing the position of the parts on the completion of the-return stroke of the carriage after a can has been deposited over the air nozzle; Fig. 24 showing the position of the parts during thel ne'xt upstroke of the carriage, during which the dried can is partly tilted; Fig. 25 showing thev position of the parts on the completion of the upstrokeof the carriage; and Fig. 26 showing the position of the parts on the completion of the next forward stroke `of the carriage, during which the can has landed in upright position on the discharge platform; Fig. 27 1s an elevation, partly in section, of the left hand side of the machine; Fig. 28 is adiagrammatic view of the spray nozzles, of the Valves ycontrolling them, and of the sources of the fluid used in treating the cans and covers, the air ducts alone not being shown, and' Fi rs. 29 to 40V inclusive, show diagrammatical -y the valve actuating mechanism and the means valve actuating mechanism, and in these' figures, Fig. 29 is a top view of a fragment of the machine showing the-valve l actuating mechanism in inoperative condition, acan being positioned at the second station and the carriage in Fig. 30 is a side view\ and Fi 31 is an end view of the parts shown in Flg. 29'; Fig. 32
