Description
Sept. 12, 1933. w. GUENST SANITARY POWDERING DEVI ICE Filed July 10, 1929 Patented Sept. 12, 1933 PATENT OFFICE SANITARY rownsnmo Davies-- "William Guenst, Philadelphia, Pa; Application July '10, 1929.. Serial No. 337,120
.10 Claims.
My invention relates. to a powdering device for, use in powdering plates for printing preparatory to etching the plates.
In preparing printing plates for etching it is usual practice to protect portionsof the plate from the etching liquor by means of powder,
This powder is dusted-on to the plate in four directions from one side after theother. the plate being heated after each dusting operation, the heating melting the powder .so that it adheres as a thin coat over the undercut surfaces during the subsequent etching process.
In the past the dusting operation has been accompanied by a deleterious escape of the dust into the room and to the lungs of the operator and others nearby.
A purpose of my invention is to provide a cabinet for performing the operationlof dusting plates preparatory to etching that will effectively prevent the escape of dust into the room and that will-be convenient for the performance of the dusting operation. I H e A further purpose is to mounta suction .device upon (a dusting cabinet for use in drawing dust-laden air away from an open doorway of the. cabinet, and to swing a door that is adapted to normally close the doorway inwardly that it may serve as a baffle during the dusting operation for guiding the dust-laden air rearward- .ly and upwardly away from the doorway.
A further purpose is'to catch the dust depositing from the dust-laden air inside a dusting cabinet while dusting a plate upon the back of an inwardly-raised door and to returnrthe settled powder to. the bottom of the cabinetby the closure of the door. I r
A further purpose is to place an exhaust inlet inside a dusting cabinet along'one or more edges of a doorway thereof, preferably along the top of the doorway when the inlet is along one edge only of the doorway. r i
A further purpose is to make a gentle inflow of air into the doorway of-a'dusting .cabinet,'jpro viding an inwardly extending baffle above the doorway and-exhaust inlets above the baffle and preferably also along one or more edges of the doorway. I
Further purposes will appear in the (specification and in the claims. I
I have elected to show one only -of the different forms of my invention, selecting a *form that is practical and efficient in operation and which well illustrates the principles. involved.
Figure Us a vertical seotion through -a-zcabi-n'et embodying a desirable form of myinventiombe- (CI. 91-60) I ing a section taken upon the line 1-1 of Figure 2.
Fig. 2 is a front elevation of "the structure embodying my invention.
Like numeralsre'fer to like parts all figinlets 12 into the interior of the box well above the doorway.
The flue 10 is shown extending the length of the box-and for-med by the front wall 13 of the box above the doorway and an inwardly spaced partition 14 cooperating the ends of the box. 7
The exhaust flue has a-pipe-connection T5 to an exhaust fan 16 driven by a motor 1''? and discharging to any suitable flue -18.
The fine '18 may desirably be provided with a dust separator 19 of any suitable t me -for elim inating any dust that may be still carried by the air after it has reached the flue 18.
Spaced somewhat inwardly and preferably upwardly from the top 0f the -=doorway I provide hinge support '20 tor a door 20'.
The door '20" is adapted to swing rearwardly in position to form a bai'fle member, =being shown in full line-in its rearward position, where it functions as 'a guiding ha-file and shown in dot-'anddash in its closed position. 'The bottom of the door may-desirably be curved "forward-1y and somewhat upwardly at 21 to seat against the inner edge of the sill member 9 where it may carry a handle 22, "shown at the middle of the door. Desirably the door is dished or "recessed at to provide a shielding niche a light 24. 7
it preierably mount a balile member 25 on the back of the door.
While the doorisclosedithemember 25 extends inwardly and its weight keeps itlre door pressing shutcagainst itsseat while the doerrisrclosed- When the door is open the bafile memberaextends idiagonally upward rand additionally :guides the dust-laden air to .near .the top (of ithe ibox hefore it can reach the inlets 12 to the exhaust flue.
The door is indicated as being rigidly fastened to its pivot member 19 which extends through the end walls of the box, carrying a handle 28 outside the box at one end thereof.
The door may be set in any desired position by means of a suitable pin 29 engaging the crank portion of the handle after the door has been placed in its desired position.
In operation a suitable quantity of powder 30 is placed inside the box. The door is opened to the position indicated in Figure 1, being fastened to place in any suitable way as by the pin 29 in the end wall of the box engaging the arm of the handle 28.
A work plate 31 is presented into the box, dipped into the powder and then turned on edge so that the powder runs across the surface oftheplate. a l I V An operator then takes a brush and with the plate abouthorizontal dusts the platefrom the forward side rearwardly into the interior of the box, the brush setting up aconsiderable amount of dust, most of the dust-laden air being drawn to the rear of the box by the suction at inlet holes 12 to the flue 10, passing in gentle flow rearwardly and upwardly as indicated by Figure 1.
Much of the floating dust settles out at 32 upon the upwardly directed back of the door 28 so that the air entering the exhaust flue has been to a considerable extent freed from its load of dust before passing over thebafile member 25 into the exhaust fiue through the perforations 12.
A portion of the dust-laden air may move forwardly in eddy currents to the doorway and for this reason I provide inlets 11 to the exhaust flue inside the doorway along one or more of the edges thereof.
While I usually find it sufiicient to place the suction inlets 11 along the. top edge only of the doorway, it will sometimes be preferable to extend the exhaust flue around the doorway with suitable flue inlets around the doorway along the inside. edges thereof.
After an operater has dusted a plate on one side, the plate is taken out of the cabinet and heated in any suitable or usual way sufficiently to set the dust efiectively by melting. V
The plate is then powdered in another direction, dipping one of its other sides into the powder in the same way as before, the plate being then up-turned asbefore so that the powder runs over the whole area of the plate and the powder is then brushed rearwardly from the other edge to suitably cover the undercut surfaces of the plate that are presented'toward the other side.
The plateis then heated as before to set the dust and subsequently the operation is repeated in the same way for the other two sides of the plate.
The best conditions inside the cabinet with respect to the rate at which the dust-laden air flows to the rear, of the box and with respect'to the requisite suctionalong one or more of the edges of the doorway may be variant accordingto variation in the character of the powder used, in the sizes of the work plates and inthe personal equations of the different operators and for this reason I have indicated the inlet openings adapted to adjustment. 4 I
The inlets 12 into the interior of the cabinet above the baffle 20 are shown adjustably closed by a slide 33 that is shown extending through suitable cuts in the end walls of the cabinet, and being adapted to be shifted by an operator to any desired position at the projecting ends in order to adjustably uncover the inlets 12. This adjustment is a familiar grading adjustment such as is used for engine valves and for dampers in the fronts of store doors.
A similar sliding adjustment is provided at 34 for the inlets 11 along the top of the doorway.
Obviously where conditions are uniform the inlet adjustment members may be dispensed with.
In View of my invention and disclosure variations and modifications to meet individual whim or particular need will doubtless become evident to others skilled in the art, to obtain all or part of the benefits of my invention without copying the structure shown, and I, therefore, claim all such in so far as they fall within the reasonable spirit and scope of my invention.
