APPARATUS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF LAMP-BLACK.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 319,606, dated June 9, 1885..

A pplication filed March 6, 1585. (No model.)

To @ZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, PETER NEFF, of Gambier, in the county of Knox and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Apparatus for the Manufacture of Lamp-Black, and I do hereby declare the following` to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same.

My invention relates to improvements in apparatus for the manufacture of lamp-black, in which a collector is mounted on a hollow standard that revolvesy around an upright stationary column, and the standard mounted on rollers that travel on a circular track,and lateral openings in the standard, by means of which the standard serves as a Ventilating flue or chimney.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is an elevation, partly in section, of an apparatus embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is an elevation of a modified form of table.

A represents an upright column firmly secured to the foundation, and may extend far enough above the apparatus to be secured with guy-rods or other means, if preferred.

B is a hollow standard flaring into a broad base at the bottom, as shown, and mounted on a series of rollers, C, that travel on a circular track, C', concentric with the column A.. The standard is provided with two heads,b and b', that have each a central bore that fit the column A and form guides for the standard. These heads have a series of openings, b2 and b3, the former connecting the chambers B and B2, and the latter opening externally. The standard has also lateral openings b4 and b5 below the table, and by means of which the standard serves as a chimney or Ventilatingflue. The standard has a laterally-projecting iiange, D, to which are secured the radial arms D', that support the plates d, that form the depositingsurface of thev table. The standard at the top has lugs E, through which pass the brace-rods F, that support the outer end of the arms D. These rods have nuts f, by means of which the rods may be adjusted lengthwise to level the table. For revolving the table, on the base of the standard is se- 5o cured a circular rack, G, that engages the pinion g,mounted on the shaft H, that is provided with the driving-pulley l2.. The column A may extend far enough above the standard B to admit of attaching guy-rods to the column,

if desired'. Burners are arranged under the table, so that the flames will impinge the lower surface thereof, and Scrapers are arranged to remove the deposit; but as these scrapers and burners are in common use in 6o this class of apparatus it is not considered necessary to illustrate or describe them.

Fig. 2 represents a lamp-black-collecting apparatus, having for its collecting-surface a flat imperforate disk,d, without the character- 6 5 istie feature, as shown in former inventions of mine, of being substantially like an inverted dish, whereby a body or cushion of carbonicacid gas is collected and retained for the partial smothering of the black-depositing flames. 7o In this 4form of collector, such as illustrated in Fig. 2, there would be a certain amount of carbonio acid collected, but not so retained in a denite body as would be the case with a collector, as shown in Fig. I, having the depending rim or flange.

1. In a machine for manufacturing lampblack, a black-collector mounted on a hollow standard, the latter provided with a broad 8o base and supporting-rollers that operate on a circular track, and a guiding-column inside the standard, substantially as set forth.

2. In a machine for manufacturing lamp-. black, a black-collector mounted on a hollow 8 5 standard, with wheels and circular tracks for supporting the structure, a circular rack attached to the standard, an engaging pinion,

4and suitable mechanism for revolving the standard, and an upright stationary guiding- 9o column inside the standard, substantially as set forth.

3. In a machine for manufacturing lampblack, a collector mounted on a hollow standard provided with rollers, circular tracks, and 9 5 mechanism for revolving the standard and load, a stationary upright guiding-column inside the standard, and inwardly-projecting 5. In a machine for making 1arnp-b1aek, a horizontally-revolving 'substantially flat and imperforate collector unprovided With a car- 15 bonic-acd-gas retaining rim or flange, substantially as set forth.

- In testimony whereof I sign this specification,in the presence of two Witnesses, this 30th day of January, 1885.

anges or heads on the standard to engage the columns, lateral openings in the stan dard, and vertical openings in the inside flanges, and the parts so arranged that the standard serves as a chimney or Ventilating-flue,substantially as set forth.

4. In a machine for manufacturing lampblaok, the combinatiomwth ahollow standard' mounted on Wheels and an inside guidingcolumn, of the flanges D and lugs E, integral with the standard, arranged to support the black-collector, substantially as set forth.
