UNITED T-ATES RICHARD MEYER, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
POTATO-PARER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N0. 430,139, dated June 17, 1890.
Application filed March 19 1890.
T0 at whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, RICHARD MEYER, of Brooklyn, New York, have invented an Improved Potato-Parer, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a potato-parer of improved construction; and it consists in the various features of improvement more fully pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a front elevation of my improved potatoparer; Fig. 2, a section on line a: as, Fig. 1; Fig. 3, a section on line y y, Fig. 1; Fig. 4, a side view of the cutter; Fig. 5, a front View thereof, and Fig. 6 a top View of the same. Fig. 7 is an enlarged section on line .22, Fig. 1.
The letter a, represents the bed-plate of the machine, carrying the uprights a, that constitute the bearings fora shaft 19. This shaft is revolved by a hand-crank 17', secured to a gear-wheel b that is mounted upon the shaft. The revolution of the shaft b operates the cutter in manner hereinafter described.
Above the shaft 1) there are hung in uprights a the shafts c d, between which the potato A to be pared is held. The shaft 0 is provided with a fork c, engaging the potato A, and is driven from wheel b by gear-wheel 0 The shaft 61 is provided with a cap cl, engaging the potato, and is driven from shaftb by the gear-wheels b (1 that engage one another. The gear-wheel d loosely surrounds shaft (1, and is held to the wheels 11 by a downwardly-bent arm a of upright a. By means of a feather d on the hub of wheel d that engages a groove on shaft cl, the motion of the Wheel is transmitted to the shaft. The shaft d may be drawn outward by a button (I to separate the parts 0' cl if a new potato is to be introduced. A spring 01 ordinarily draws the shaft d inward to confine the potato in place. The shaft 1) is provided with a bevel-pinion b engaging a bevel gear-Wheel e on a vertical shaft 6. This shaft projects beneath the bed-plate a, and its lower end is supported upon a cam f. By partly turning this cam the shaft e may be raised or lowered to a slight extent. \Vhen the shaft 6 is lowered, the wheel 6' is thrown out of gear with pinion 19 To the shaft 6 there is also keyed a spur-pinion e engaging a sliding rack g, free to move upon bed-plate a, between a pair of the cutter is from right to left.
Serial No. 344,468. (No model.)
rails g. To the rack 9 there is secured an upright g to which is pivoted the knife-stock h, drawn against the potato A by a spring h. At the upper end the knife-stock terminates in a rounded head 7?, that bears against the potato above the knife, and thus in conjunction with the knife regulates the depth of the cut. The knife i is of semicircular form, and is pivoted to head k by a binding-screw 7), by which its inclination may be adjusted. The knife i cuts with its upper edge, and the farther it is turned upward or toward the rounded edge of the head the more will it cut off.
The operation of the machine is as follows: The shafts b 6 being intergeared and motion being imparted to crank 19, the potato will be revolved, and at the same time the rack g will be drawn over the bed-plate a in a line parallel to the axis of the potato. The rack will cause the cutter to travel from one end of the potato toward theother, so as to properly pare the same. In Fig. 1 the motion of When the operation is completed, the cam f is turned down to disengage the parts 6 b the shaft e dropping down by its own gravity. A spring j beneath the bed-plate a and connected at one end to a fixed bracket j and at the other end to an arm 7' projecting downward from rack g, draws the latter back into its normal position. For the reception of arm j the bedplate a is provided with a longitudinal slot a (Shown in Fig. 2.) The machine may be attached to a table or other support by a clamp B.
That I claim is 1. The combination of work-shaft b, with upright shaft 6 intergeared therewith, a rack g, intergeared with the shaft e, a knife-stock h, pivotally connected to the rack, a knife secured to the knife-stocks, and a pair of revolving shafts o d, between which the potato is clamped, substantially as specified.
2. The combination of work-shaft Z), with vertically-movable shaft 6 intergeared there with, a cam f for supporting shaft e, a rack g,
intergeared With shaft (2, a knifestock pivoted thereto, a knife secured to the stock, and a pair of shaft-s between which the potato is clamped, substantially as specified.
3. The combination of work-shaft b,witl1 shaft to the shafts c d, substantially as specified.
5. The combination of bed-plate a, with uprights (1, downwardly-bent arm a shaft a, sliding shaft (1, gear-Wheel (Z mounted thereon between parts a a and with gearwheels 19 b 0 vertical shaft 6, rack g, knifestook h, and pivoted knife 1', substantially as specified.
