Specification formingfpart of Letters Patent No. 89,650, da'ed August 18, 1 863.
Be it known that I, EznA COLEMAN, of the city and county of San Francisco, Stateof Cal# ments inAmalgamators; and I do hereby dethe 4accpm panying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
Figure 1 is atop view of the machine. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional viewthrough the center. vFig. 3 represents, the under' or grinding. surface of ,the top plate. Fig. 4 represents the upper or grinding surface of the bottom plate. Fig. 5 represents the' top,.andFig. 6 lle plate', both of which A represents an amalgamatingpan, such as is in common use. V
B is the lower plate, which rests upon the bottom of the pan ,and is provided with slots or holes b through theisame to actas receptacles C vis the intermediate or grinding plate, thev surface withgrooves or gutters e, Fig. 5. n h are lugs fbr attaching plate (l tQ yokey for the purpose of rotatingthe'same. v j D is the upper plate, used for its extra grindpurpose of regulating. nlp, `and is represented as being stationary.` v
, s s are'set screws lfor regulating the distance being 'grou'nd. A
V4:ejare grooves upon the ,under surfaceof with the upper surface of the intermediate or ing-plate.
. k la are .-holes or slots through the upper Y plate, and may be'closed when the proper agitation of thepulp requires. lThe upper plate may bemade either with or without the grooves l f for revolving the intermediate or hereinbefore set forth.
or gutters yz3-or. with or without the slots or holes lac, according to the neness required :for the pulp and to the amount of agitationy which may be necessary in order for the'thorough amalgamation of the same.
s is a set-screw for Vref gulatiug the position .of the intermediate or grinding plate.v
The arrangement of gearing and shafting' grinding plate,
struction of the pan to 'which these improve- -ments are applied.
.Operation The foregoing description of my invention precludes the necessity of any 'Particular explanation as to its mode ofoperatiun,v
^ as that'will hsreadily understood by parties familiar with quartz machinery. It may, however, be well to state that. the intermediate plate or grinder C, havingtwo grinding-surfaces, will reduce the rockt'o a much finer 'pulp andI in greater quantity inproporti'onto the time .and power employed thaniy amal- "gamator now in use. plate, D, will allow the grinder C to be run at` The stationary top'- a-high speed without too much agitation of the pulp, which is a desideratum of great im;- portance. i,
I do 'not claim grinding plates of iron with grooves or gutters therein,'n or with slots vor holes through the same. .N either dol claimV any Vparticular form ot'groove or gutter.
What -I claim as my invention, and for Awhich Il desire Letters Patent-to issue, is
1. The use, in*amalgumating-pans, of a plate .with grinding-surfaces top` and, bottom, said plate revolving between 'two other plates.
V2. The use of a top plate, D,.in amalgamatin g-pans, for the purpose ofregnlating the agitation of the pnlp,'thej' whole substantially as described, and for the uses and'purposesas e e Y EzRA` COLEMAN. Witnesses:
