Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOSEPH HAVVTHORN, OF THOMAS COUNTY, GEORGIA.
. IMPROVEMENT IN COTTON-PRESSES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 24.026, dated May I7, 1859.
so combining a screw and its tap with levers and with the followers of the press as that a great amount of power can be exertedkwith a comparatively small outlay of manual labor.
A A is the frame-work of the machine.
B is the screw, set vertically and stepped on the sill of the framework.
C is the tap-block, through which the screw is made to turn by the levers DD, attached to its upper extremity,l and which is caused thereby to move vertically between the guides F F are the packing-cases, in which the followers G G are forced down or lifted up by means of the levers H H. These levers are attached by joints to the stems I I of the followers, have their fulcra at K K, and their longer arms a a extending inward toward the screw B. These last are of sufcient weight to act as counterpoises to the followers G. The arms a a also rest loosely on the top of the tapblock C in such a manner that as it is lifted by turning the screw ity presses against and causes the arms a a of the levers H to ascend and the followers G to be forced down into the packing-cases F. When the tap is made to descend, the weight lof the arms a alifts the followers G from their work. The packing-cases F F have each a door, M, near their bottoms,
through which the. bale is removed when pressed.
I do not intend to confine myself to two packing-cases and a corresponding number of levers in the construction of my press, for any number of such packing-cases and their appurtenances Inay be so arranged around the screw as that all may be operated by it without altering the mechanical combination.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new therein, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination ofthe screw B,the tapblock I C, and the levers D and II with .the packingcases M and their followersG, substantially in the manner and for the purpose herein described and shown.
