PHILIP M. SHARPLES, OF WEST CHESTER, PENNSYLVANIA.
CCENTRIFUGAL LIQUID-SEPRATOR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 402,624, dated May '7, 1889.
V Application filed February 29, 1888. Serial No. 265,671 (No model.)
To aZZwhom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, PHILIP M. SHARPLES, a citizen of`the United States, residing at West Chester, in the county of Chester andV State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Centrifugal Liquid-separators; and I do 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,vand to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon ,which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to a centrifugal Inachine adapted to separate compound 1uids such as milk-and to continuously deliver their constituent parts.
The object of my improvements is to provide a novel means of delivery which is not only economical, but which also prevents the possibility of clogging the outlet, and allows the width of the stream to vary with the amount ofthe discharge. f
Figure l shows .in sectional elevation one form of centrifugal vessel prov-ided with my outlet. Fig. 2 is a plan of the sanne. shows a vessel without a proj ect-in g neck such as is shown in Fig. l, buthaving the same form of outlet. Fig. 4 isA a plan of a vessel having an eccentric opening or mouth which forms an equivalent outlet.
A represents a separating-vessel attached to a rotatable axis, B, which is' guided in a bearing attached to the inclosing-case C.
A is a projecting neck terminating with an internal iange which somewhat contracts the opening or mouth A4.
A3 is a depression or notch in this flange which extends the otherwise circular opening.
vD and D are annular receiving-vessels supported on the fixed casing C.
E is a fixed inlet-nozzle throughwhich the milk is admitted to the separatingvessel- The means of supporting and revolving theA shaft B are not shown.
The vessel shown in Fig. 3 has an opening or mouth with similar depression for outlet, but is formed without the neck, which is not an essential element of my arrangement.
Eig. 3'
circular, but which is not concentric with the axis on which the vessel rotates. Different points of said opening are therefore at varying distances from the center of rotation, and the same obj ect is thus attained as by means of the depression or notch A3..
I am aware that centrifugal separating-vessels have been constructed in which a fluid was discharged over the level edge of the Vessel, also through holes in a projecting neck below the edge; and Patent No.293,3l4 shows a delivery-notchv in the upper edge of a vessel having such a projecting neck. The notch in the upper edge above referred to, and also the discharge-holes below the edge, require more or less of a projectingneck. The iiuid is discharged as soon as it reaches the height yofthe hole or notch, and does not flow over the edge of the vessel. When the uid is discharged over the upper edge, it is apt to overflow equally at all points. With my arrange- Inent the upper edge may be perfectly level, yetthe liquid may be made to iiow over it in any desired width of stream. The centrifugal force throws the iiuid as far as possible away from the center of rotation, and the continuons supply of new fluid causes the lighter constituent to rise over the edge of the vessel at the part of the nozzle which is farthest from that center, While it is otherwise confined by the nearer part of the top or flange.
Having thus fully explained my invention,
Awhat I desire to a secure are the following claims:
l. A centrifugal separating-vessel provided with a top opening or mouth eccentric with the axis of said vessel, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. A centrifugal separating-vessel provided with a top opening or mouth mainly concentric with the axis of said vessel, but havinga depression or notch, A3, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
PHILIP M. SHARPLES.
