G. G. AL EXIUS. BRICK SHOT.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GUIDO C. ALEXIUS, OF GOVINGTON, LOUISIANA.
.BRIC'K SHOT.
SPECII ICA'JJION forming part of Letters Patent No. 421,804, dated February 18, 1890.
Application filed January 14, 1889- Serial No.29 6,286. (No specimens.)
T0 60% whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GUIDo CINTIO ALEXIUS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Covington, in the parish of St. Tammany and State of Louisiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Brick Shot; and I do declare the followingto 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.
This invention relates to means for cleaning bottles; and it consists of shot formed from clay or argillaceous earths, to be employed in the place of lead shot heretofore used for that purpose.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a side view of a bottle, showing part broken away 5 and Fig. 2 is a View of some of the shot on an enlarged scale.
It is Well known that shot made of lead have long been employed in bottle-cleaning, the method being-t0 partly fill a bottle with such shot and then shake the bottle sufficiently to give them violent agitation. The friction of the shot against the inner Wall of the bottle by continuous shaking serves to remove any soiling or offensive matter that may be found thereon; but the above-named process is objectionable, and is sometimes found to be dangerous. Lead is of a poisonous nature, and it sometimesoccurs in cleaning a bottle it leaves on the walls thereof a subtle poison. To remedy this difficulty, I
' prepare what I call brick shot in the following manner:
I first take clay or argillaceous earth and grind it in a pug or other suitable mill. I then, while it is in a plastic state, pass it bewhen they assume the color and rigidity of burnt brick. Shot thus formed have a rough surface, and may be safely used in the manner that lead shot are employed in bottlecleaning without risk of poison; and, furthermore, inasmuch as they are impervious to ordinary acids or alkalies, they are found to be much more effective than lead shot.
' It is obvious that marls, loams, andvarious other earths may be employed usefully in making my shot; but I find no earth is equal to clay in such manufacture.
While I have described the shot as being form ed from clay, kaolin, loams marls, or argillaceous earth, yet it is obvious that they may be formed from any material which will not produce an injurious effect or be affected by chemical preparations, alkalies, or acids.
Having described my invention, what I claim is- 1. As a new article of manufacture, shot formed of suitable earths, substantially as specified.
2. Shot formed from suitable earths and some 0. ALEXIUS.
