SAMUEL MOKITTRIOK, OF'DUNKIRK, INDIANA.
GATHERING-RING FOR GLASS-FURNACES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 683,617, dated October 1, 1901. Application filed February 2, 1901. Serial ll'o. 45,759. (No modeln T0 (tZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUEL MOKITTRICK, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dunkirk, in the county of Jay and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Gathering-Rings for Glass- Furnaces; and I do declare the following to 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, reference being bad to the accompanyin g drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in attachments for glass-furnaces, and especially to a gathering ring made of east-iron and provided with wroughtiron legs, means being provided whereby the legs are engaged by a swinging metallic yoke which when it is desired to remove the ring may be swung so as to allow the legs of the rings to be clear of the yoke. By the use of a ring of this nature a resetting of the furnace-rin gs will be unnecessary during the entire blast and will afford protection to the blower in hot weather and prevent the blaze from blowing out during Windy weather or when the furnace is subjected to a blast.
The invention will be hereinafter more fully described and then specifically defined in the appended claims and is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, which, with the letters of reference marked thereon, form a part of this application, and in which Figure 1 is a front View showing the gathering-ring as applied to a furnace. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view through the furnacewall, the gathering-ring, and aperture therein. Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail view of the gathering-ring. Fig. 4 is a detail view of the bail which holds the feet of the gatheringring. Fig. 5 is a detail view showing the adjusting-rod and socket member for holding the upper portion of the gathering-ring, and Fig. 6 is a detail View of the grooved plate in the gathering-ring.
Reference now being had to the details of the drawings by letter, A designates the wall of a glass-furnace having a gathering-aperture B therein, and C designates the gathering ring, which is made, preferably, of
cast-iron, which when applied to the wall of the furnace has its aperture in registration with the gathering-aperture B in the wall of the furnace. This gathering-ring has legs D, which should be made of wrought-iron and are designed to rest upon the horizontal table E. Over the marginal edge of the aperture in said ring is secured a metallic plate F, which is slightly grooved, as at G, said plate being provided for the purpose of a rest, on which the gatherers tool or blower is adapted to rest.
H H designate the end bars of the bail K,
which are pivoted to the vertical rods H.
This bail normally rests on the horizontal table E and is designed to hold the bottoms of the legs D from sliding outward. The upper portion of the gathering-ring G is held to the wall of the furnace by means of the rod M, which is supported by its hooked end on a rod N, secured between the upper ends of the vertical rods H and the socket M',which receives the lower end of said rod M, and is ad justably held therein by means of a thumbscrew P. This socket member is tapering to a'point and engages in a recess in the gathering-ring. This rod and socket member are made adjustable for the purpose of allowing the same to be extended in case the lower ends of the legs D become burned or worn away.
To remove the gathering-ring, the bar M is removed and the bail K swung out from the furnace-Wall, after which the ring may be readily taken from about the gathering-aperture in the furnace.
Having thus described my invention, What I claim to be new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In combination with a furnace-wall, a table secured thereto, a removable gatheringring supported on said table, a swinging bail adapted to hold the lower portion of said ring against the furnace wall, and adjustable means for holding the upper end of the gathering-ring in place, as set forth.
2. In combination with the Wall of a furnace, a. table secured thereto, a removable gathering-ring having legs which rest upon said table, a pivoted bail adapted to rest upon the table and hold the legs of the ring from moving outward, and adjustable means for holding the upper portion of the ring against the furnace, as set forth.
3. In combination with the Wall of a furnace, a table secured thereto, a -removable gathering-ring having legs resting upon said table, a pivoted bail resting upon the table, and adapted to hold said legs from outward movement, a socket member engaging the upper portion of the gathering ring, and a hooked rod suspended above the gathering- 10 ring, with its lower end adjustably held in said socket, as set forth.
In testimony whereof I aflix' my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
