R. SCOTT, Jr. COTTON PRESS.
No. 30,356. Patented Oct. 9, 1860.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ROBERT SCOTT, JR, OF MADISON, INDIANA.
IMPROVED COTTON-PRESS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 30,356, dated October 9, 1860.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ROBERT SooTT, J12, of Madison, in the county of Jefferson and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cotton, Hay, and other Presses; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accom- Y panying drawing, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
The nature of my invention consists in con-' structing and arranging the several parts of thispress substantially in the manner hereinafter'set forth.
In the annexed drawing, which is a side elevation of my press, A represents the pressboy, which is constructed in a strong and substantial manner, and of any required size.
B represents a lever secured at one end to a shaft at 0: upon top of the box A. To the under side of this lever is secured an arm, K, which is connected to the top press-head, D, by means of a connecting-piece, J. "When .the lever B is raised and depressed, the head D partakes of the same motion, as seen.
I-I represents a cord, which is connected to thebox,as represented,at one end. Said cord, passing over a pulley in the end of the lever B, and thence down and around another pulley at the bottom of the box, serves to draw down the end of said lever B, and thus depress the head D.
E represents a head, which presses laterally or horizontally. The head E is connected to, a piece, E, which slides upon the bottom of the box, and is braced by means of the bar 6', all of which are seen in dotted line in the figure.
- To the outer end of the sliding piece E the lower end of the lever C is connected.
F represents a bar, which is secured to the frame of the box at f, and to the lever C at g. The fulcrum, consequently, of the lever Ois at g I represents a cord secured to the top of lever O, and which passes down and around a [pulley attached to the box. When the lever G is drawn down by means of the cord I, the head E is pressed into the box, and when said lever is raised said head is drawn back again to its normal position.
L represents a cord for drawing the head E out again after it has been pressed into the box.
G-represents a cord, which is attached to the free end of the lever B, and is used for the purpose of raisingsaid lever after it has been drawn down by the cord H.
In using this press the heads D and E are drawn out, and the box is filled with whatever material it is desired to press. If cotton, the cotton is filled in through doors used for 'that purpose, and when the box is as well packed as can be by hand the. doors are barred, and the press-heads are forced in on two sides of the bale, as seen, by means of the levers andcords. When pressed, the levers are raised, the heads drawn out, and the bale is removed and more material is put into the box.
I do not claim any of the individual parts of 'this press; but
What I do claim is-- The arrangement of the lever B, arm K, connecting-piece J, and head D with the cords G H,le ver 0, head E, brace e, connecting-piece F, and cords I and L, the whole being constructed and operating in the manner and for the purpose hereinspecified.
In witness that I claim the above I have hereunto set my handin the presence of two subscribing witnesses.-
ROBERT SCOTT, JR.
