ROBERT M. BELLI'NGER, OF BLISSFIELD, MICHIGAN.
FRUIT-DRYING RACK.
- SPECIFICATION forming part of -Letters Patent No. 292,199, dated January 22, 1884,
Application filed August 10, 1883. No model.)
Be it known that I, ROBERT M. BELLINGER,
' a citizen of the United States, residing at Blissfield, in the county of Lenawee and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful -Fruit-Drying Rack, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to fruit-drying racks, and is designed more especially as an improvement on Letters Patent No. 263,673, granted to me September 5, 1882; and it has for its object to increase the capacity of the racks by stringing thereon the pared, sliced, and cored fruit.
The invention consists in the novel construction andarrangement of parts composing a fruit-drying rack, as will be hereinafter more fully described.
In the annexed drawings, to which reference is made, Figure 1 is a front view of one example of a fruit-rack embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is an end View of the slotted or notched support for the rail ends, and Fig. 3
is a view showing the rails adjusted in a position to receive the fruit.
In the annexed drawings, A represents a p'ostor upright, either of wood or metal or other suitable material. The upper and lower ends are'provided with suitable bearings to permit it to work on an axis in a frame. These are arranged in such a manner that the rack will be capable of being swung around laterally back and forth on said bearings. The upright A is provided with a. series of perforations, b, suitably arranged apart from each other, into which are secured the ends of the longitudinal or horizontal rails C. These rails are preferably maderound, sufficient space being provided between the rails to admit of such fruit as, for example, apples, peaches, pears, and smaller-sized fruit, after they are sliced, pared, and cored. The prepared fruit is passed over the free ends of the rails and adjusted thereon for proper drying. After the fruit has been placed thereon, the free ends of the rails are swung around into notches 0, corresponding in number to the rails 0, made in the vertical edge of the upright or post D, placed opposite to the upright A, carrying the rails.
From the foregoing description it will be apparent that the free ends of the rails are swung out of the slots or notches in the upright D, and the fruit is strung upon them suitable drying-chamber of a fruit-dryer, and
the hotair thereof will circulate freely through and around the rack, which will in a comparatively short time dry the. fruit upon the said rack in a thorough manner.
This rack is simple in its construction, being composed only of a few parts, and it is cheap to manufacture.
In some cases the post A, with the horizontal rails G,will be fixed in the drying-chamber of the fruit'dryer, and the post or upright D, with the notches corresponding with the horizontal rails C, will be movable or detachable, so that access can be had to one end of the rails for the passage and removal of the fruit thereon; also, the horizontal rails C may be made of tubes, through which steam may pass from a steanrreservoir. I
I do not wish to be understood asconfining myself strictly to the precise construction, as said construction may be varied without departing from the spirit of my invention.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a fruitdrying rack, a plurality of horizontal rails connected at one end to a vertical post or bar and the other end adapted to fit into notches, whereby the movement of one of the vertical posts will permit. of the passage of or removal of fruit upon the rails, substantially as described. a
2. As an improved article of manufacture,
the fruit-drying rack, consisting of a vertical ROBERT BELLINGER.
