UNITED STATES P TENT OFFICE) JOHN MEYER, OF COVINGTON, KENTUCKY.
BEER-COOLER.
STE-CIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 323,712, dated August 4, 1885.
Application filed June 8, 1&5.
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN MEYER, a citizen of the United States, and a resident ofOovington, in the county of Kenton and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and useful Improvementsin Beer Coolers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to apparatus for cool iug beer preparatory to storing it. Its object is to lessen the consumption of ice and reduce the beer to a lower temperature than is now accomplished by the process in common use. These objects are accomplished by the means illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a view partially in central ver' tical section and partially in elevation of my improved apparatus. The section is taken through line 1 y of Fig. 2, which figure is a vertical section of the ice-crushing rolls and the chamber within which they are contained. This section is taken at right angles to the view shown in Fig. 1, and through the line as x of said figure.
Similar reference-letters indicate like parts wherever they occur throughout the views.
A represents the box or case of the icecrusher, in the ends of. which are journaled rollers B. These rollers have teeth or points b projecting from their peripheries, those upon the one roller being arranged to pass those upon the other in alternate rows. The shafts b of the roller are provided at one end on the outside of the case A with gear-wheels b the teeth of which mesh, thus causing both wheels to revolve in opposite directions when power is applied by abelt passing over the pulley If, secured upon the opposite end of one of the shafts. The case A has ahopper, a, above the crushing-rollers, into which the ice which is fed to the rollers is placed, and below the rollers is a similar hopper, a, which conveys the crushed ice passing from the rollers to a tank, 0, which is arranged below the case A and between the case and the cistern D. Upon the right-hand side of Fig. 1 is shown, in elevation, a coil of cooling-pipes, E. This device is of ordinary construction, and will require no detail description here. As ordinarily used, water is forced from a cistern, as D, the
(X0 model.)
water being cooled in the cistern by placing blocks ofice in it, up through the pipe H and thence through the coil of the cooler, and discharged through the upper pipe, 0, of the cooler. The beer in the meantime enters the trough d on top of the'cooler, which trough is perforated or slotted on its lower edge to allow the beer to drip over the pipes into the trough 6, located below the cooler, from which trough it passes through a pipe, G, to the storing-tank. Instead of carrying this pipe G to the storingtank, I carry it through the tank 0, near its top, and connect it with a coil, G. the lower coil of which is connected to the discharge-pipe g, which leads to the storing'tank. A pipe, 0, leads from the tank 0 into a cistern, D.
The operation of the device is as follows: The blocks of ice are placed in the hopper a, the rollers B set in motion, the crushed ice passing through and into the tank 0, which should ordinarily be kept well filled with the crushed ice. As this ice melts by the beer passing through it the water drips down through pipe 0 into cistern D,from which it is drawn by the pump and forced through the cooler E. The beer, dripping over the cooler into the trough e, is partially cooled. From the trough it passes through pipe G and through coil G, and is discharged through the pipe 9 at a much lower temperature than it is possible to reduce it even when it passes over a number of coolers, E. If desired, a quantity of salt may be fed with the ice to produce even a lower temperature. By this means I am enabled to save atconsiderable quantity of ice and require less than half the cooling-surface ordinarily employed for this purpose.
\Vhat I claim is 1. The combinationof the ice-tank G, a coil arranged within said tank, and the ice'crusher arranged to discharge crushed ice into said tank, with the cooler E, and pipes G g, the said pipes being connected to the opposite ends of the coil, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
2. The ice-tank 0, arranged above the cis tern D, and having a discharge-pipe leading from the bottom of the tank into the cistern,
the case A a a, and the ice crushing rolls B, of the cooler through said pipes and coil to arranged above the tank and within the case the storing-tank, substantially as hereinbefore A to discharge the crushed ice into the tank, set forth.
in combination with cooler E, pipes H, and JOHN MEYER. 5 pump for forcing water from the cistern \Vitncsscs:
through the cooler with the pipe G, coil G, (l. V. MILES,
and pipe g to carry the beer from the trough GEO. J. MURRAY.
