Fig. 13 is a horizontal section on the plane of the line 0 00, Fig. 11. Fig. 14 is a'horizontal section on the plane of the line q m, Fig. 11.
This invention relates to a new machine for filling the bottles that are known as siphons with aerated waters, such as Seltzer waters, Vichy'water, and the like.
The invention consists in a new screen or holder for the siphon-bottle, in a new valve mechanism for controlling the inlet and the vent, and in a new general combination of parts for regulating the position of the bottle and its valve, all as hereinafter more fully described.
In the drawings, the letter A represents the frame or stand of themachine. The same is by preference made in form ofa hollow standard made of metal, and provided, as is indicated in Fig. 1, with an upwardly-projecting post, a. i
In the lower part of the standard A is pivoted at b a treadle, B, (see Fig. 2,) which treadle connects with the lower end of a vertical rod, 0, that enters with its upper part into a vertical tube, D. (See Fig. l.) A spiral spring, (I, surrounds the rod 0 beneath a shoulder, e, of the tube D, and above a shoulder, f, that is formed on the rod. 0. This spring d is so stiff that on depressing the treadle B and raising the rod Cthe said spring will also cause the tube D to be lifted until said tube shall be arrested in its upward movement byapositive stop, when by further depressing the treadle the spring (1 will be contracted and the rod 0 allowed to m0"6 up alone. The upper end of the tube D above the supporting-stand A carries a bracket, 9, to which is bolted, through a projecting flange, h, one half of the siphon-holdingscreen E. This screen, which is more fully shown in Figs. 5 to 9,inclusive, is made in two parts, 2' and j. The part ihas a flange, h, which is bolted, as stated, to the bracket 9, and immovable, except vertically, with the tube D. To this part i the part j is joined by a pivoted yoke, P, which is indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 5, and fully shown in Figs. (Sand 9. By a suitable handle, at, with which the movable part j of the screen E is provided, this movable part can be swung up into the dotted position, in which it is represented in the upper part of Fig. 5. Whenin this position, the screen is open, and the siphoubottle F (shown in Fig. 1) can beinserted,where; upon the screen is closed by bringingthe part j in line with the part i, as is indicated in Fig. 1 and by full lines in Fig. 5.
In order to enable the attendant to" grasp the bottle in trying to remove it from the screen, the part i has recesses in its edge, into which fit projections 12 on the part j of the screen E. The screen E is supported on the the tube D in an inclined position, so, in fact, that when the siphon-bottle F is inserted in said screen with its head down said head will rest in a bolster, 0, which is attached to the upper end of the tube D, as is clearly shown in Fig. 11. This bolster is detachable, so that different-forms of bottle heads may be accommodated.
In the bracket g is pivoted an elbow-lever, G, of. which the short upper arm carrying a friction-roller, i is below the valve-handle p of the siphon-bottle when the latter is in place in the screen. The long arm of the elbowlever G passes through a slot in the tube D into the slotted upper end of the rod 0. The lower part of this slot is formed by a frictionroller, j I
Below the slotted part of the tube D,which is adapted to receive the elbow-lever G, said tube is provided with an outwardly-extending collar, 1", which is provided with a cushion, s, on its lower face, and which rests in the bowlshaped upper part, if, of the stand A. This collar is guided in its upward motion by a vertical rib, y on the post a. In this bowlshaped part t all drippings from the siphon and from the filling apparatus are received, and from there these drippings pass through an aperture in said bowl (shown in Fig. 2) into a tube, a, and thence to a suitable receptacle, so that the apparatus itself is kept dry and clean at all times. Above the slot the tube D V has a shield, 7L3, which sheds water drippings into the bowl t and protects the rod 0 and the interior of the tube from contact with the water. The post a, which projects upward from the stand A, supports in its upper enda tube, H, which connects by a suitable pipe with the supplyvessel containing the liquid that is to be filled into the siphon-bottle F. The tube Eat the other end carries two short vertical cylinders, I- and J, which are connected by a short bridge, 1;, in which a T-shaped lever, L, is pivoted by a pin, The tube H terminates beneath the cylinder I around a nipple, y, that extends upward from a vertical tube, z, and above this nipple is in the tube I a valve, M, which connects with one wing of the T- shaped lever L, and which normally will be held closed by a spring, 9", that bears upon its upper end. When this valve M is raised by the lever L, as in Fig. 11, the tfibe H will communicate with the passage 2. The other wing of the lever L connects with a valve, N,which normally is forced by a spring, h upon a nipple, a through which a passage, b extends to the passage z, as shown in Fig. 11.
Around the nipple a is the termination of a pipe, d", which is termed the vent-pipe. By bringing the lever L into the position shown in Fig. 11 the valve M is opened, so that the vent-connection with the passage 2 is interrupted and the supply connection between the passage 2 and the pipe H established; but when the lever is turned the other way, so that it opens the valve N and allows the valve M to be forced by the spring upon the nipple y, the vent-passage will be opened and the supply-pipe closed.
The operation of the machine as described is as follows: The siphon-bottle F being secured in the screen E, so that its head rests in the bolster 0, its nozzle 6 will be directly beneath the passage 2, while its handle 1; will be directly above the short arm of the lever G. The lever L is to be held at this stage in the position shown in Fig. 1, so that both valves N and M will be closed. The attendant now depresses the treadle B, and thereby lifts the tube D and rod 0 until the nozzle 6 strikes the lower end of the pipe 2, which is cushioned for the purpose,as indicated in Fig. 11, whereupon by such contact the upward movement of the pipe D is arrested; but the attendant on further depressing the treadle B swings the lever G on its pivot, so that the handle 19 of the siphon-bottle will be moved to open said siphon-bottle. Now, the valve M is raised to fill the bottle. Any surplus of water can be let out by opening the vent-passage and lifting the valve N, also superfluous gas.
The pipe H can be adjusted in the supporting-post a, and secured in the proper position by a set-screw, f so that the position of the passage 2 may be regulated according to different forms of nozzles e on the siphon-bottles F. The valve M has a shoulder, 76*,011 its metallic stem, which, when the valve is on its seat, is in contact with a metallic base-ring, M This prevents the flexible valve-disk being injured by pressure. The valve N has the same construction.
The pipe d may be connected by a short piece of tubing with the bowl it, so that all drippings may be saved at the lower end of the tube a.
We claim lifts the rod 0, contracting the spring d, and 7,
1. The combination of the frame A with the sliding tube D, sliding rod 0, spring d, lever G, and siphon-bottle holder E, substantially as described.
' 2. The frame A, combined with the sliding tube D, siphon-bottle-holding screen E, collar 7", and cushion s, substantially as described.
