CENTRIFUGAL REEL.
SPECIFIGATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 338,466, dated lfiarch 23, 1886.
Application filed May 13, 1885. Serial No. 165,342. (No model.)
T 0 aZZ whom it 71mg concern.-
Be it known that I, HENRY E. BEERLING, of Jackson, in the countyof Jackson and State of Michigau,have invented new and useful Iniprovementsin Centrifugal Reels; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full,clear,and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a partof this specification.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in that class of flourdressing or bran-dusting reels usually known as centrifugal reels. Such reels as usually constructed consist of a cylinder or drum, inside of which, fastened at the ends of radial arms or-supports, are a series of longitudinal beaters'or blades which revolve around the central shaft, for the purpose of throwing the material under treatment violently against the inner surface of the bolting-cloth, which is secured to the heads of the drum and to an intermediate series of hoops, which are usually covered with some soft material-such as cotton-flannelin order to prevent too great wear upon the bolting-cloth.
Myimproved reel differs from others in having two series of heaters instead of one, and each running in an opposite direction to the other, by which means I propose to increase the capacity of'the reel, as well as the quantity of flour extracted from the chop under treatment.
The invention consists in the peculiar combinations and the construction and arrangement of parts, as more fully hereinafter described and claimed.
Figure 1 is an elevation of the front end of my improved machine. Fig. 2 is an elevation of the rear end of the same. Fig. 3 is a vertical central section of the same.
In the drawings, A represents the main shaft, running horizontally through the center of the machine and projecting beyond the ends of the same, rear and front. The front end of this shaft is supported in a suitable box, B, which in turn is supported by the bridge or girt C, the ends of which are supported by the frame of the machine.
D isahollow journal, sleeved on the shaft A, and carrying the radial arms D, to the outer ends of which the front ends of the outside beater-blades, H, are secured.
E is another hollow journal sleeved upon the hollowjournal D, and carrying the front head, E, of the reel-cylinder, and to the pe ripheryof this head E the bolting'cloth Z is attached in any of the known and preferred ways. i
J areradial arms secured to the main shaft A, and to their outer ends are secured the ends of the blades K ofthe inner heaters. At the opposite end ofthe case,inclosing the reelcylinder and the heaters, is a bridge-tree, N, supporting the box M, which in turn supports this end ofthe main shaft A.
D is a hollow journal sleeved on the shaft A, and carrying the radial arms D' to the outer ends of which the rear ends of the beater-blades H are attached.
I are rods tying together the radial arms which carry the hater beater-blades.
Lis the rear head of the reel-cylinder, upon which a toothed or spur gear, S, i cast or otherwise secured. This gear engages with the pinion R, which is secured at the end of the counter-shaft'A. Motion is given to this counter-shaft A bymeans of the gear-wheel V upon the shaft A, ei'igaging with a similar wheel, Vgon said shaft A, and this motion is communicated to the reel-cylinder through the engagement of the gears It and S. A gearwheel, Q. is also secured to said shaft A, and this gives motion to anothergear, P, journaled on the stub-shaft '1, which in turn engages with the pinion O, which is secured upon the end of the hollow journal D, and thereby gives a rotary motion to the outer series of beater-blades H.
U is a sprocket or chain wheel, also secured to said counter-shaft A, over which runs a suitable chain, B, to communicate motion to the conveyers G, below the reel-cylinder, and which may be of any of the known styles of construction.
X is the main driving-pulley secured upon proportion of the chop to be treated from the trough F.
By this construction of reel the agitation of the material within it and under treatment is so great that a much larger quantity of flour is extracted from the chop than can be obtained by the employment of reels as ordinarily constructed, thereby increasing the efficiency of the machine.
What I claim as my invention is 1. In a flour-bolt, a reel-cylinder rotating in one direction in combination with rotating heaters rotating in opposite directions, and means for driving all from the same shaft, substantially as and for the purposes described.
2. In a centrifugal reel, the main driveshaft, inside heaters secured upon said main H. E. BEERLING.
