3 will deliver this reject material in semi-dry condition for convenient disposal.
Another object is to provide screening and pulping apparatus of the above character which will operate in stages first to screen the major proportion of usable fiber from the large particles and reject material, then to beat the reject from the first stage in substantially more dilute form for eiective salvaging of usable material therein, and finally to screen out useless reject and compact the same to semi-dry condition for ready disposal.
A further object is to provide multiple stage screen and pulping apparatus as outlined above which requires only a single inlet connection for the stock and a single outlet connection for the stock discharged during all stages of operation, and which does not require a sewer or likeY connection for reject material but delivers the reject in compacted and semi-dry condition for convenient manual disposal as by a shovel, wheel-` barrow or the like. f
It is also an object of the invention to provide multiple stage screening and pulpingapparatus in which the impeller employed at one or more stages of the pulping operation is a brush-like member having multiple relatively coarse bristles giving comparatively high velocity agitation and also having a whipping action against the inertia of the stock for effective deiibering with economical power requirements.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following description, the accompanying drawings, and the appended claims.
In the drawings- Fig; 1 is a somewhat diagrammatic perspective Cfr 4 imperforate to close the upper part of the chamber.
Below the trough 25 is a cylindrical shell 29 forming a chamber 30 of substantialll7 smaller diameter than chamber 20, for example a diameter approximately one-half that of chamber 20, and the lower portion of the wall of chamber 30 is provided with perforations 3| of substantially the same size as the perforations 21 in wall I5. As shown in Fig. 4, the bottom of trough 25 slants downwardly from one end thereof to the other, and at its lower end it is provided with a downwardly extending inlet connection 32 to the chamber 30 for delivering thereto material discharged over the wall 26 from chamber 20. A shower pipe 33 is mounted to extend across tank I above trough 25 to supply additional water for Y material delivered to trough 25.

Fig. 4 is a fragmentary section on the line 4-3 i:
of Fig.`2 and also of Fig. 3; and
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary section on the line 5 5 of Fig. 3.
Referring to the drawings, which illustrate a preferred embodiment of the invention, the ap- .paratus includes a lmain casing l0 forming a within the larger end of tank I9 and providedl with a generally tangentially arranged inlet 2l extending upwardly therefrom and provided with a suitable flange 22 for connection to an The walls I5 and I6 are also formed with a tangentially arranged outlet passage 2d Vfrom chamber into a trough 25 which thus has an open connection with the interior of chamber 20 over the intervening wall portion 23. The wall l5 is provided with multiple perforations 2l along the lower portion thereof of selected size in accordance with the desired size of particles to be discharged therethrough, hole 1/8 inch in diameter being satisfactory, while the wall i6 is tank l0 and incorporating suitable liquid tight At the opposite end of chamber 33 from inlet 32 is an outlet connection 34 to the cylindrical chamber 35 at the smaller end of tank lil, the shell 36 which forms the chamber Y being shown as of smaller diameter than chamber 30 and provided with small Yperforations 3l in the wall thereof.
Within the chamber 2G is an impeller 40 having multiple working edges, and this impeller is shown as a cylindrical brush comprising a core 4l mounted on a shaft d2 provided with multiple relatively coarse bristles d3. YThe bristles are preferably not too closely spaced in order to provide adequate impeller action on the stock within the annular space between the outer surface of the brush and the walls I5 and I8. Thus for example, if the brush is 24 inches in diameter, the bristles 43 may be formed of steel wires approximately 0.125 inch in diameter and spaced approximately i6 to the square inch at the outer surface of the brush.
Within the chamber 30 is an impeller 45 also having multiple working edges, and this impeller is shown as a brush of generally cylindrical outline comprising a core l mounted on a shaft 41 .and provided with multiple relatively coarse bristles G8.
y effected by arranging, the bristles 48 in a helical row along core 436 as shown. A common drive is provided for the impellers and 55, shown as a main drive shaft 50 from a motor (not shown) which carries a pulley 5l connected through a belt 52 with a pulley 53 on the shaft fil of im- `peller 45, and a pulley 54 on shaft 4'! is in turn connected through belt 55 with a pulley 55 on the shaft 42 ofy impeller 3. lThe opposite ends of shafts 42 and lil are shown as supported by suitable bearing unitsV 5l mounted on the outside of .I seals 58.
The chamber 35 constitutes the collecting and i compacting chamber for reject material such as floating trash which is too large in size for passage through the perforations in the walls of either of chambers' 20 and 39.
Accordingly, within the chamber 35 is mounted a conveyor screw connected at its rearward end with a drive motorl mounted on the outside rof tank Y I0. The forward end of the cylindrical shell 36 A 62, and a closure door 65 for this outlet is pivoted in a bracket 66 at the top thereof and is provided meandri 511 with acounterweight indicateddiagrinninat-icallir ait-61 for normally holding the closuredoorf'i in closed; position.
WithA this arrangement in chamber 35i, reject material reaching the interior of-v chamber 35` is pickedup by screwL 60' and' carried towards'its outlet- 6'21 Witlr the screw" terminatingat alpo'sition spaced from the closure door i5-by an appreciablej distance ass'hown; for example 6'4 to 8 inches,- the accumulated reject isiirst compacted into arelatively'solid sli-1gbetween the end ofthe screw andtheidoor; WithA the water being squeezed outanddischarged throughthe perforations 31 intc-the; -srround ing'portion o'ftank I0; Then as additiona-lreject accumulates and isr forced against this shig,A the door 65 win bel opened againstits countervfeight G'Tftoeiec't gradual 'extrusionj of the; reject,V but sinceI there still remains a substantial slug'iof reject Within theoute let#pass-agel which'I actsy effectively asa seal, the discharge material 'is in the` form` o 'f' a damp sludge containing practicaly no more'liquid` than dheresto ,the individual particles therein.
In the operation of ,thed'evice'as apwhole, the sto'cllr is initially suppliedto the unit through ,the inlet lconnection 2 l preferably'after being treated in' a suitable-:settling trough orl Oth'erap'paratus for removing grit 'andlike heavy reject'material therefrom.
