CHURN.
sPEcI'FIcAToN forming pm of Letters Patent No. 657,588, .dated september 1'1, 1900. Application led Ii111ie1l,1900. Serial No. 20,529. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known' that I, HENRY G. CoNNET'r, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Churn, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to improvements in churns.
The object of the present invention is to improve the construction of churns and to provide a simple and efficient one adapted to be easily operated and capable of quickly producing butter.
The invention consists in the construction and novel combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claim hereto appended.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a churn constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the same. Fig. 3 is a similar view taken at right angles to Fig. 2, the churnbody being shown slightly inclined in dotted lines and supported by the operating-rod.
Like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawings.
1 designates asupporting-frame composed of horizontal bottom bars 2 and vertical standards 3, connected near their upper and lower ends by transverse bars 4 and 5, and the said bottom bars 2, which are located at opposite sides of the frame, form the base of the latter and are adapted to rest upon the iloor `or other supporting-surface, as clearly illustrated in Figs. 1 and 3 of the accompanying drawings. The vertical standards are provided at points between their ends with snitable bearings 6 for'the reception of journals 7 of an oscillating churn-body 8, which is pref-v erably rectangular in cross-section; but any other form of churn-body may be substituted for that illustrated in the drawings.
The churn-body is provided with a removable cover 9, having apertures 10 for the reception of stems 1l and 12 `of a pair of reversely-rotating dashers 13 and 14, geared together by a pair of pinions 15 and 16, mounted on the stems of the dashers at a point above the lid or cover, as clearly shown in Fig. 2. The blades of the dasher are provided with apertures, and the stems have pins 17, resting upon the upperface of the cover and supporting the dashers. The lid or cover is retained on the churnbody by means of a rod 18,'provided at one end with an eye 19 and having its other end arranged in a staple 01' loop 20 of the churn-body. The staple or loop is arranged at one side of the churnbody, and on the opposite side is secured a threaded stem 21, receiving the eye 19 and provided with a nut 22 for engaging the same.
rlhe upper ends of the stems of the dashers are journaled in apertures of a substantially L-shaped bracket 24, secured to the cover near onepf its edges and supported by a substantially U-shaped brace or flange 25, extending over the bracket and having vertical sides located at opposite sides of the gearing.
The gear-wheel 16 meshes with a curved rack 26, secured to a horizontal arm of an L- shaped bracket 27 and located at the inner face of one of the standards of the supporting-frame. TheY L-shaped bracket 27 is se,- cured to the adjacent standard 3, and the curved rack is provided at its ends With arms or lugs 28, forming stops for the gear 16,whicl1 meshes with the teeth at the inner edge of the rack. The stops limit the oscillation of the churn-body, which is operated by a rod 29, having a loop `30 at its outer end and hinged at its lower or inner en d to the churnbody, near the bottom thereof. The inner or lower end of the operating-rod is preferably provided with an eye, which is linked into a screw-eye or bolt 31 of the churn-body. The
loop 30 forms a handle or grip and is also adapted to engage the adjacent end of the rack, as clearly illustrated in dotted lines in Fig. 3 of the accompanying drawings, to support the churn-body in a slightly-inclined position to facilitate the removal of the cover andthe contents of the churn. The operating-rod may also be engaged with the rack to keep it off the iioor. When the churn-body is oscillated, the dashers are reversely rotated by means of the gearing, and it will be apparent that the contents of the churn are thoroughly and rapidly agitated, whereby butter is quickly produced.
' It Will be seen that the churn is simple and comparatively inexpensive in construction, that it is adapted to be easily operated, and
.moval of its cover and its contents.

` What I claim is- A churn comprising a supporting-frame, a churn-body journaled thereoma curved rackbar fixed to the supporting-frame and having Y its ends extending downward and provided with inwardly-extending lugs, dasher mechanism provided with `gearing meshing with the"1ac'k,and an operating-rod connected with the churn-body and having a Ioop forming a grip and arranged to engage the adjacent .end
of the rack-bar for Supporting the churn-body in a slightly-inclined position, substantially' as. described.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as 1, l myown I have hereto affixed my signature in the 'presence of two witnesses. l
HENRY G.-CONNETT.
