`UNIT-ED l STATES PATENT f OFFICE.
HORACE HUBD, OF SPRING HILL, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR TO IIIWSELF AND J. E. BALDWIN, OF SAME PLACE.
lMPROVEMENT IN ClDER-MILLS.
Specification forming part of Letters r'ateut No. 42,912, dated May 94, 1864 To al/ whom it may concern.-
'Be it 'known that I, HORACE HURD, of Spring Hill,.in th'e county of Whiteside and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Cider-Mills; and I do hereby declare that the. following is a full, clear, and exact description of the saine, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a side sectional view of my invention, taken in the linea' .r, Fig. 2; Fig. 2, a plan or top view of the same. y
Similar letters of reference indicatecorre- 'sponding` parts -in the two figures.
Thisinvention relates to an improvement in what is generally known as the gratter-mill for grinding applesin manufacturing cider.A
The object of the invention is to produce a mill of the kind specified, which will perform its work much more rapidly and thoroughly than those hitherto constructed, and one which y may be constructed at a much less cost.
The invention consists in constructing the.
,crater-cylinder with a piece of perforated.
sheet metal, iron, steel, or other metal being used for the purpose, and secured on the periphery of a wooden or metal cylinder, as hereinafter set forth, whereby a very ecient gratter-cylinder is obtained, and in using, in l connection with the grater-cylinder, con- ,structed as set forth, a perforated sheet-metal ieedplate arranged in relation with the graten cylinder as hereinafter described, whereby the work of the latter is greatly expedited.
To enable those skilled in the art to fully understand and construct `my invention, I will proceed to describe it. A
A represents the framing of the mill, which may be constructed in any proper manner to support the'working parts, and B is a gratercylinder placed transversely in the upper part of the framing A and formed by having and give a tooth to the face or periphery of the grater-eylimler, as will be seen by rel ferring to Fig. 1. This grater cylinder B may be rotated by gearing c vfrom a driving-shaft, O, multiplying-gear being used to givesuicient speed to the cylinder B.
'n im s In the upper part ot' the framing A there is -edge of which is within a short distance of the periphery of the gratercylinder B, and in about a horizontal line with the center of its axis a. outward from the cylinder B- at an' angle of about forty-ve degrees, as shown in Fig. l, and it is perforated by being punched from its inner side in thc same way as the plate a of cylinderB, and consequently it has the same rough or toothed surface.
The perforated sheet nieta-l of the cylindcrB land feed-plate D, may be iron, steel, or brass.
The space between the feed-plate D and cylinder B receives the apples to'be gr'ound or gra-ted, and the cylinder B, when rotated, performs the work'. The perforated feed-plate D retains the apples or prevents them from rolling4 or shifting about while being acted upon by the cylinder B, and thereby renders the operation of the latter very efficient, causing ,the work to be performed rapidly and well, the apples being reduced to a very inepomace. l
The sheet-metal plates of the grater-cylinder. B and eed-plate D may be perforated or punched at a 'small cost, and they form an excellent toothed or roughened surface 'for the purpose specied, and admit of the vmill -being constructed at a much less cost than those hitherto used.
I do notlr confine myself to any particular gearing or to any means for-driving the cylinder B, and any power-Amman,steam,wind, or horse-may be employed as a motor.
vI am aware that cider-mills have before been made with raSpmg-SurLeS, and also that punched sheet metal is commonly used as a rasping-surface in graters and other articles.
Having thnsdescribed my invention, what I Patent, is-
As an improvement in cider-mills, the gratter-cylinder B, having a surface or covering of punched sheet metal, in combination with the punched feedplate l), all arranged to be l operated as hcreindescribed.
