UhllT-ED STATES PATENT QSHN n. WALSH, or new YORK, u. v.
lMPROVE ME NT IN GRAIN-ELEVATO as.
Specification forming partof Letters Patent No; 207,323, dated August 20, 1878; application filed July 24, 1878.
To all ivho-m it may cancer-n5 Be it known that I, JOHN E. WALSH, of the city, county, and State of New York, have made certain Improvements in Elevators for Elevating. Grain or other Substances, of which the following is a specification:
Mysinvention relates to that kind of elevator'for taking the grain or similar substances from the hold of a canal-boat or vessel and elevating the same into a loft in a store-room, or fortransferring the grain from one vessel or a canal-boat into the hold of another vessel; and it consists in the construction of a portable frame or carriage having a sliding,
and a fixed elevator-ease thereon, and the necessary devices for operating the same, to transfer the grain"fioiironmioeatibii Tto another, .and during such transfer to air, weigh, and
clean the same, as will ,be fully hereinafter described.
In the drawing, Figured represents a side view of the portable elevator; Fig. 2, atransverse view; and 3 isa top view of same. A represents the framing that supports the elevators. B are[ the sills that support the frame A, and in or under which are inserted an-y'desired number of wheels, b,'upon which .the framing A and the elevators aresupported,
and become portable ormovable fronrplace to, place.
y C is an elevator-case, having within it the necessary pulleys, and endless beltwith buckets thereon, to dip up and raisethe grain from the hold of a boat or vessel, or from a car. Elevator Q is constructed to slide up and down in the framing A, so that'when it is not i in use it is forced up, and its lower end will be above the tfadof wheels I).
The elevator O is raised or lowered by any known mechanical device, such as rope E and pulley c, and is held to be at any desired height.
c is the delivery-spout to elevatorG, which delivers the grain raised by the elevator into hopper F, thence into the weighing-hopper G, where it is weighed, and then discharged into chamber H, to. be subjected to a cooling and cleansing current of air from fan-blower 11', through pipe h, then into hopper I and spout is placed upon H, may
i, into the receiving-hopper at the bottom of elevator J, thence to be hoisted by elevator J to any desirable height, and delivered through spoutj, tobe distributed inany direction, or to be spouted into the hold of an adjacent vessel.
The elevator G is put in motion by any dc- "ice that will be effective, such as the train of gearwheels (1 d" d d and shaft (P, and driven by power applied to pulley d on shaft 7 D; and the elevator J is operated through a similar train of wheels, j, and shaft j, and the blowef H is rotated by a pulley on its shaft, driven by abelt or other device, all from a com mon motive power situated at a convenient.- poiut with relation to the pogt able frameA and elevators, and the vessel, boat, or car from which the grain is to be taken.
In operation, this portable elevating device the deck .of a vessel or boat, X, or roof of a car, the elevator O lowered into the grain, and the gearing put in motion to operate the elevators and blower, as previously described, and when the grainis elevated and passed through the weighing, airing, and cleansing devices it is still further elevated,
where it can be spouted in any direction or a into any bin in store-house or hold of'a vessel.
The intermediate devices, such as the weighing-hopper Gr and the air or cooling chamber be dispensed with; but I prefer to use them 'in transferring the grain.- I
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is I The portable frame A, havin the elevat ing devices O and J, and the intermediate weighing-hopper G and cooling-chamber H, substantially as and for the purposes described- 1 v 1 2. The sliding elevator C, in combination with the high fixed elevator J, substantially as and for the purposes described.
3.-Theian-blower H and chamber H, in "combination with the sliding elevator 0, sub
stant'iallyas and-for the purposes described. p JOHN E. W'ALSH. Witnesses: v
