BUTTER-CUTTING MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 701,874, dated une 10, 1902. Application filed December 2.6, 1901. Serial No. 87,177. (No model.)
To all whom, t may con/cern,.-
Beit known that I, CHRISTIAN GLAUS, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Milwaukee, in the county of Milwaukee and State of Wisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Butter-Cutting Machines; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof.
My invention has for its object to provide simple economical machines having utility as means to facilitate conversion of butter masses into angular cakes of predetermined proportions and weight, said invention consisting in certain peculiarities of construction and combination of parts hereinafter particularly set forth with reference to the accompanying drawings and subsequently claimed.
Figure l of the drawings represents a central section of a machine in accordance withmy invention; Fig. 2, au plan'view of a portion of a cutter-frame' and tub Aconstituting parts of the machine; Fig. 3, aplan view of the lower portion of said machine, partly broken and in section, its butter-tub and cutter-frame elements having been removed; and Fig. 4., a perspective view of a portion of the butter-tub and cutter-frame together with an adjustable gage, this view being made to show vertical separation of a mass of butter forced upward out of the tnb.
Referring by letter to the drawings, A represents legs; B, leg-braces; C, each of a pair of leg-supported parallel sills, and D a beam between the two leg-braces, these several parts being arranged and joined to form the frame offmy machine. However, the construction of the machine-frame --'may be considerably varied without departure from my invention. Set on ,the sills C is an angular table E, Vhaving an upper endless ilan ge b and depending transverse anges c, the latter flanges being extended from one to the other of said sills. W A
Table E is provided with a central sinkl constituting `a seat for a'platen F, that is nor-` mally flush with said table. A'rack G, constituting a shank of the platen, engages a depending guided, with which the table is provided, and another guide for said rack is a bracket e, bolted on frame-beam D above specified. Bolted on leg-braces B ofthe machine-frame are bearingsffor a shaft H, and
a pinion I, fast on the shaft, meshes with the platen-rack. Aspur-wheel J, fast on shaft H,
is in mesh with a pinion K, fast on another shaft L,A hung in bearings g, bolted to the under sides of the sills C, and a hand-Wheel M is shown in connection with shaft L as mclamp-mits j being run on these bolts against the' under sides of said sills to hold said tub inplace. l' 1 Engaging vertical kerfs in the tub-walls at the upperends of same are crossed wires Q ofl a frame R,Yand this frameis held in snug Afiton the tub by hooks S engaging eyes k,
with which outer cleats m of said tub is provided. Eachframe-wire is bent at one end ona pin n and being passed through an apertnre in a frame-bar is wound taut on a bolt p, crossing an aperture in the opposite framebar, a clamp-nut q being run on the bolt against the adjacent frame-bar to hold said bolt and prevent slacking of the wire.
One of the frame-bars is grooved upon the inner side to permit of the vertical arm of an angle-iron T being pushed in between it and the adjacent tub-wall, and a gage-block U is made fast on the under side of the horizontal arm of said angle-iron. A scale is indicated on the vertical arm of the angle-iron T to determine the set of the gage-block U, and the gage as a whole is verticallyadjnsted to be high or low in proportion to the weight desired in the cut-out butter-cakes, the scalemark for the weight .being set` even with the upper side of the adjacent frame =bar, as shown in Fig. 4..
In practice the tub is packed full of-but ter and slicked off at Vthe top with awire, after which it is positioned on table E and fastened in place. The frameRwith crossed wires Q being set in place and secred,'the gage is adjusted to the desired elevation and hand-wheel M operated to elevate platen F IOO by means ot' the gearing above specified. The loose tub-bottom and mass of butter thereon being forced upward by the movement of the platen said mass is vertically divided bythe crossed wires in the aforesaid frame. The vertically-cut butter having ascended as high as gage-block U, the machine is stopped and said butter horizontally cut from the mass by means of a wire, the result being a series of exposed angular cakes of butterhaving predetermined proportions and weight. The butter-cakes being removed, the above-described operations are repeated from time to time until all of the butter in the mass has been divided into cakes of predetermined proportions and weight.
I-Iaving thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secu re by Letters Patent, is-
l. A buttercutting machine comprising a supporting-frame, a table on the frame, a vertically-movable platen having a depending shank extending through the table central of the same, means in connection with said frame and shank for actuating the platen, a tub on said table having vertical kerfs, means for holding the tub in place, a
loose bottom in the tub on said platen, an upper tub-fitting frame, and crossed wires in the latter frame engaging the tub-wall kerfs.
2. A butter-cutting machine comprising a supporting-frame, a table on the frame, a vertically-movable platen having a depend ing shank extendingr through the table central of the same, means in connection with said frame and shank for actuating the platen, a tub on said table having vertical wall-kerfs,` means for holding the tub in place, a loose bottom in the tub on said platen, an upper tub-fitting trame, crossed wires in the latter frame engaging the tubwall kerfs, and a horizontal gage having a` vertical scalearm adjustable between the aforesaid tub and said upper frame thereon. In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand, at Milwaukee, in the county of Milwaukee and State of `Wis consin, in the presence of two witnesses.
