BOTTLING-MACHINE.
EJPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 339,053, dated March 30, 11386.
Application filed Septmnberfi i, 1885. Serial "No. 173,050. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ERNST FREDRIK G6- RANSSON, a subject of the King of Sweden, residing at Stockholm, in the Kingdom of Sweden, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Apparatus for Bottling WVine, Beer, and other Liquids; 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 appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, and in which- Figure 1 isa plan view, partly broken away, of my improved bottling apparatus. Fig. 2 is a side view of the same. Fig. 3 is an end view of the apparatus, showing parts broken away. Fig. l. is a perspective view of the machine, and Fig. 5 is a detail view of the pump.
Similar numbers of reference indicate corre sponding parts in all the figures.
My invention has relation to apparatus for fillingliquids into bottles; and it consists in the improved construction and combination of parts of an apparatus in which a basket, box, or crate containing bottles may be placed into the apparatus, the bottles lifted out of the said bottle-receptacle and filled, whereupon the bottles will again be placed into the receptacle when the operation may be repeated, as hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, 1 1 indicate two parallel tracks, upon which the basket, box, crate, or other bottle-receptacle may be slid into the apparatus, the frame of which is marked 51. The lifting-plate 2 slides vertically in the frame, having guides 19 at the sides of the frame for guiding its travel, and this plate is provided with a number of perforations, 3, widening downward, which perforations register with the bottle-compartments in the receptacle. Tongs; are pivoted upon the lifting-plate at the perforations, (two being shown in Fig.1 of the drawings,) having their curved arms adapted to clasp the necks of the bottles, and spiral springsSserve to draw the legs of the said tongs together, and one leg of each tong is provided with a laterally-projecting arm, 8, against the outer end of which lugs 7 bear, the said lugs projecting from bars 6, sliding transversely upon the top of the lifting-plate. The bars are provided with cross-bars 9, which connect them and cause them to slide in unison, and the sliding bars are connected to eccentric disks 11, upon a longitudinal shaft, 12, by means of connecting-rods 52. This shaft is journaled in longitudinal bearings upon the lifting-plate, and is provided at one end with a hand-lever, 13, for rocking it.
Two rock shaft-s, 23, are journaled transversely at the top of the frame of the appara tus, and are provided with cog-wheels 22, at their middlcs, the said cog wheels meshing with each other, and these shafts are provided at their ends with arms 21, to the outer ends of which are pivotally attached upright rods 20, to the lower ends of which the lifting-plate is secured, the said rods and arms supporting the said plate. Levers 24, having connterpoises 2i, sliding upon them, project from the rock-shafts and counterbalance thelifting-plate and its burden, and one of the levers is provided with a handle, 53. by means of which it may be raised or lowered and the other levers and arms, as well as the entire lifting-plate be manipulated.
25 is the reservoir, which is provided at its bottom with as many pipes, 29, as there are apertures in the lifting-plate, and these pipes are secured to a plate, 30, with their ends projecting so as to enter the necks of the bottles the receptacle.
said cover is provided with uprights 33, to the upper ends of which are pivoted levers 34," which have their fulcra in bearings at the tops of uprights 85, having pins 36 resting in raise the cover and lift the valves, which willallow the fluid in the reservoir to escape through the pipes at its bottom.
The fluid enters the reservoir through a pipe, 26, which is provided with a regulating valve, 27, and a cutoff valve, 28, receivingits supply through a suitable hose or pipe, 26, from a receptacle, and the cut-oil valve has its stem connected to a weighted lever, 42, pivoted upon a lug, 41, the free end of which lever is engaged by a lip, 43, projecting laterally from the lifting-plate, so that the cut-off valve will be closed when the free weighted end of the lever is raised by the said lip upon the lifting-plate.
A float, 37, slides within one end of the reservoir, and has an upright rod, 54, the upper end of which is pivotally connected with the end of a lever, 38, pivoted at one end, and an extensible rod, 40, is pivoted at its upper end to the said lever and at its lower end to a short lever, 39, to the other end of which the stem of the regulating -valve is attached, so that when the float has been raised to its desired height by the liquid flowing into the reservior the said fioatwill, through the levers and adjustable or extensible rod, close the regulating valve, and thusclose off the supply to the reservoir, the height at which the valve will be closed being regulated by extending or contracting the extensible rod. It will thus be seen that the receptacle containing the bottles may be pushed into the apparatus upon the track, when the lifting-plate may be lowered until the necks of the bottles project through the apertures between the legs of the tongs, when by tilting the hand-lever the sliding-rods may be drawn so as to cause their lugs to release the arms of the tongs, allowing the springs to force the tongs around the necks of the bottles, the tilting of the lever at the same time causing the hooks to catch The lifting'plate may now be raised, which will cause the bottles to be raised by their neck-flanges, and the receptacle will be supported upon the hooks a short distance below the bottles, and as the lifting-plate arrives to its uppermost position the lug upon the same will tilt the weighted lever, which closes the cut-off valve, while the ears or plates upon the arms supporting the lifting-plates will strike the set-screws at the ends of the levers supporting the cover of the reservoir, raising the end of the said lever and the cover, which will raise the valves from oii" the pipes leading to the bottles, allowing the fluid to pass through the said pipes into thebottles.
\Vhen the reservoir is empty,'the lifting plate is lowered, which will cause the cut-off valve to be opened and allow the reservoir to be filled, and the valves at the bottom of the reservoir for the pipes are also closed, so that the reservoir may be filled again, until the desired height is reached, when the float will close the regulating-valve by means of its levers and the extensible rod.
lVhen the lifting-plate has reached its lowest position, the hand-lever is tilted, releasing the hooks supporting the bottle'receptacle, and the sliding-rods will bring their lugs to bear against the arms of the tongs, releasing the bottle-necks and allowing the bottles to rest in the'receptacle, which may be removed and another receptacle with empty bottles put in its place. In this manner it will be seen that a great number of bottles may be filled at once, and by regulating the height to which the liquid is admitted into the reservoir, the height of the liquid in bottles of the same capacity may be regulated.
Having thus described my invention, I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States- 1. An apparatus for filling liquid in bottles, consisting of a vertically-moving plate having apertures for the passage of the necks of a number of bottles, and clamps for clasping the necks of the bottles, pipes corresponding and registering with the apertures in the plate,
