IMPROVEMENT IN TOBAGGO PRESS AND GUTTER.
l SAMUEL G. RICE, OF ALBANY, NEW YORK. l Letters Patent No. 59,748, dated November 20, 1866.
SPECIFICATION. To ALL wHoM IT MAY coNcERN;V
Be it known that I, SAMUEL G. RICE, of Albany, in the county of Albany, and State of New York, have invented a new and improved press and cutter for tobacco, and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, in which Fig. 1 is a top view of the machine. i Fig. 2 is an elevation of one side of the machine. Fig. 3 is a front elevation of the machine with the knife removed.
Fig. 4, sheet 2, is a central section, taken longitudinally through the centre of the machine. Fig. 5, sheet 2, is a similar view to ii-g. 4, showing the follower moved forward and the front end of the l p hinged cover depressed. f
Fig. 6 is a vertical tranverse section, showing the back of the follower. l Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures.
This invention relates to certain novel improvements on machinery, which is designed for pressing and cutting tobacco. It consists in constructing ar. oblong box, with a hinged side or cover, and employing in conjunction therewith certain means for depressing one end of said cover and firmly compressing the tobacco at and ynear the point of its discharge from the box, as will be hereinafter described.
It also consists in the employment of ,a follower, for forcing the tobacco out of said box, which will contract and-expand, and thus accommodate itself to the tapering chamber in which it is moved, as will be hereinafter described, i
To enable others skilled in the art to understand my invention, I will describe its construction and operation. Y
In the accompanying drawings, A represents a rectangular oblong box, which may be made of any suitable capacity. The two vertical sides, bottom, and rear end of this box are closed, leaving the front end open for the discharge of the tobacco. The top of this box A is closed by a hinged cover B, which is hinged at its rear end to strong standards A A', at the rear end of the box. This cover B extends forward to the front end of :its box, and is allowed to move freely between the vertical sides thereof, so as to assume the positions shown in gs. 4 and 5. A yoke C, is pivoted on top of the cover B, near its front end; so as to oscillate freely; this yoke vextends out laterally, and its ends partially embrace two vertical screw rods, D D, which projectl up' from the sides of the box A, as shown in figs. 3 and G. These screws receive upon them spur. wheels a a, having square enlargements a a on their upper sides, which wheels Iengage with a spur wheel that turns loosely around a stud c that projects from the top of the yoke C. The circular hubs on the bottom sides of the two spur wheels a a bear upon the ends of the yoke C, and thus depress the front end of the cover B, when said wheels are screwed downward.
The object of employing three spur wheels in the manner described is to depress the cover equally on both sides, and cause it to move squarely, or without liability of tilting and binding. The intermediate wheel b keeps the two spur wheels always in a plane parallel to the bottom surface of the cover B and yoke C, and this wheel b rises and falls with the said cover-in a vertical line, which latter object is accomplished by having the stud c applied to an oscillating yoke, which will allow this stud to maintain a vertical position parallel to the screw rods D D., l
The follower G is secured to a screw shaft H, winch is tapped through a hand wheel J, that is applied to the rear endl of the box A, as shown in figs. 4 and 5. This hand wheel J is constructed with a hub d on that side of it which is next the box A, and in' the periphery of this hub an annular groove is formed, which groove is received by the rear end of the box A, so as to held the hand wheel firmly in place and allow it to rotate freely. A hole is made through Athe axis of said wheel, and provided with a female screw-thread for receiving the screw shaft H. By moving the wheel J one direction the follower G will be forced forward, and by turning it in the opposite direction the follower will be drawn back. l
The follower G is made of two parts, as shown in figs. 4, 5, and 6. The part g is constructed with an upper right angular projection, from which two studs h h project perpendicularly, and enter holes which are made in the part y', so as to form guides and attachments for the movable part g. A spring s is interposed between the part g and the'upper end of part g for the purpose of keeping the upper and lower sides of the follower in close contact with the upper and lower surfaces or walls of the chamber in which this follower moves, and at the same time allowing the part g to rise and fall accordingto the inclination given to the cover The tobacco is first stripped of its stems, and then placed in a. box the same size of the box A. It is then pressed hard to form a cheese-two of -which are put in the box'A at the same time-f-when the coverv is -in the` position shown in fig. 4. The forward end of the cover B is then screwed down hard, so as to press the tobacco y firmly at' its discharge, after which it is forced from the box by-turni ng the han'd wheel J, and rapidly cut up by the revolving knives K, shown in fig. 1.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure'by Letterslatent, is-
1st. The cover B applied to a. box A by a hinge at one end, and a vertical adjusting device at the opposite end for the purpose of pressing the tobacco at and near itsy point of discharge from said box, substantially as described.
2d. The combination of,a. n,expansible follower G,'with a. hinged .pressing covenfB, press box A, and cutter K, substantially es described. SAMUEL Gr. RICE.
