FRUIT-DRIER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 249,972, dated November 22, 1881.
Application filed August 23, 1881.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH MONGENE, a citizen of the United States, resident of Sullivan, in the countyof Sullivan and State of Indiana, have invented a new and valuable Improvementin Fruit-Driers; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, makin gapart of this specication, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure lof the drawings is a representation of a vertical longitudinal section of my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical cross-section. Fig. 3 is a cross-section taken online x w of Fig. l. Fig. 4 is a cross-section taken on line y y of Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a detail view of one of the trays. Fig. 6 is aplan view of the tray, and Fig. 7 is a plan view of the case, showing the radial pipes.
This invention has relation to fruit-driers; and it consists in the novel construction and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described, and particularly pointed out in the claims.
Referring byletter totheaccompanyingdrawings, Adesignates the case or frame of the drier, constructed of wood lined with sheet metal, except at the ends and bottom, which are of metal. Only the portionsB and C, near the bottom of the ends, are of metal, the. portion B being removable and traversing the front end immediately beneath the doors D, and having perforations or openings for the introduction of the perforated tubes O G,Which traverse the drier-case from front to rear and project through openings in the metal portion C at the rear of the drier. These tubes C C are open at both ends, and are intended for introducing cold air to the drier, which is heated by the furnace F, before it passes up through the drier to its point of escape at the ventilator in the center of the top portion of the drier.
The furnaceFis located beneath the bottom of the drier and traverses it centrally.
Above the perforated cold-air tubes C C, and running parallel therewith, are three smokecylinders, G G G', the central one, G, of which communicates directly with the furnace F through a series of vertical pipes, H. The cyl- (No model.)
inders or drums Gr G G communicate with each other through lateral pipes I. Elbows J J extending from the outer sides of the cylinders G G', connect with vertical pipes K K, running along the side walls of the drier to about midway of its height, where said vertical pipes K K are connected by elbows to horizontal pipes M M, arranged in pairs and traversing the drier from side to side, as shown, there being end and central pairs of the same.
From the pipes M M vertical pipes N N lead up through the top of the easing, coming out near the sidewalls, and are then connected by horizontal radial pipes O to the central smokestack and ventilator, I. A damper, P, is located in the smoke-stack P below the point where the radial pipes O enterthesame. This damper P may be opened to ventilate the drier, or maybe closed to retain the heat, as circumstances may require.
The vertical side strips, Q, of the drier are provided with a series of tray-ledges, R, for the support of the sliding trays S. rEhe frames of the trays S are of Wood, the end rails, T, of which have vertical recesses U on their inner faces for a portion of their depth for the reception of the ends of the metalstripsV which support the apples. The strips V have oppositely-projecting barbs upon their upper edges at intervals, as shown, the object in providing them being to enable me to dry the apples Whole in spiral form, after rst peeling and coring them, the barbs enabling me to separate the folds of theI prepared apple to permit it to dry more rapidly.
The tray at the front has a pivoted bar, WV, which is turned in over the ends of the metal strips V and catches X turned over it to lock and hold the strips to place. The rear bar,W, is stationary. Any number of recesses for the ends of the strips Vmay be employed, and the strips may be placed nearer to or farther from each other, as circumstances may require.
By inverting the trays S and placing them them on their ledges smaller trays containing apples in other forms may be used, or other fruits may be readily dried in this drier.
By this construction I am enabled to generate and retain more heat with less expense of fuel than byanydrier heretofore known 5 and the rapidity with which the fruit may be dried and the ease with which the heat may be regulated of themselves commend the device.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- 1. In a fruit-drier, the combination, with the furnace, of the cylinders Gr G Gr', the cylinder Gr being connected with the furnace by a series of vertical ues,H, and the cylinders G'l G G with each other by a series of transverse pipes, I, th'e latter being connected by pipes K K and elbows to the horizontal pipes M M', arranged in pairs across the drier, the vertical pipes N N and the horizontal radial pipes O leading to the central smoke-stack and ventilatorP above the drier-top, substantially as.
and for the purposes set forth.
JOSEPH MONGENE.
