JOSEPH KAYSER, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.

BOTTLE-WASHING MACHINE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Fatemi:v No. 702,010, dated TU-lie 10, 1902- Application led September 20, 1901. Serial No. 75,762. (No model.)

To a/ZZ whoml it may concern.-

Beit known that I, JOSEPH KAYSER, a citi-- brushes of suitable shapel arranged around a common center,the standards for the brushes being removably secured to a disk or disks to which rotary movement is imparted and an auxiliary central brush for the base of the receptacle, said auxiliary brush being adj ustably secured in the shaft from which rotation of the disks is obtained, and, second, to provide in such a machine a simple and easilymanipulated means whereby the series of brushes may be adjusted, so that they' may approach toward or recede fromthe central axis around which the brushes rotate.v

The nature and scope of my invention will be more fully understood from the following' description, taken in connectionwith the accompanying drawings, forming part hereof, in which- Figure l is a side elevational View, partly in longitudinal section, illustrating a machine embodying main features of my invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the brushes, the disks, and shaft and auxiliary parts. Fig. 3 is a front elevational view, enlargedand sectioned, illustrating the means for adjusting the seriesof brushes inl the,l

disks. Fig. 4 is a rear elevational View of said disks; and Figs. 5 and 6 are respectively side and rear elevational views, enlarged, of one of the series of brushes.'

Referring to the drawings, a represents the driving-shaft, supported -in'suitable bearings a a and driven by a belt 0.2, passing over the fast pulley as. One end of this shaft c', is hollowed for the reception of the stem b of a central flat and circular brush b'. A seta in the desired position and also serves when loosened to permit the stem b to be adjusted insaid shaft a to thereby cause the flat central brush b to projecty more or less beyond the end of the shaft a. Upon the shaft b is secured a collar d, carrying a disk d', and facing this disk d' is a second disk d2, adapted to turn somewhat loosely upon the shaft a when the two disks d and d2 are not locked together, as hereinafter explained. Each disk d and d2 is` transversely slotted, as at c and f, respectively, the slots e` in the disk d' being eccentrically arranged and curved and the slots f in the disk d being also arranged to cross the slots c at an anscrew b2 serves to fix the stem bin the shaft Y gle. Through the opening in both disks ol anddc'aused by the two slots'e and f coinciding, the base of a standard g is passed. This base, as illustrated, has a flattened por tion g', which slides in the slots f of the disk l-and a round portion g2, which slides in the Vinto a channeled portion g3 of the standard g and are secured therein by screws or other fastenings g5. y `The standards g also have for the purposes of strength a fin or rib g, extending back of the channeled portion gB of the standards. -The ends g'` and g2 of the standards g traverse both disks d and d2, and the round Vend gz'is provided withA threads to receive a bolt m. Each of the standards g also has at the base of the channeled portion g3 a collar or head m', and between the head of the bolt m and the collar fm' the two disks d and d2 may be tightly clamped by advancing the bolt m, in the threaded portion of the standard. The two disks may thus be easily llocked together, and the standards g may be even date herewith under the Serial No.`

jects of my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. In a bottle-Washing machine, a main or driving shaft, a central brush having its axis adjustable in said driving-shaft and forming a yielding support for the base of the bottle, a disk secured to and rotating with said driving-shaft, a series of brushes surrounding the central brush and each provided with a standard, means for removably fixing each standard to the disk, and means for adjusting said standards in said disk to cause the series of brushes to approach toward or recede from the central brush and driving-shaft. 2. In a machine of the character described, a brush, a standard having a channeled por- P'ioaolo tion adapted to receive and retain the back of said brush, a iin or rib extending along the entire back of said channeled portion to strengthen the standard, a round end formed on the standard beyond the channeled portion, and a rotating slotted disk in which the round end of said standard is adapted to be secured.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my signature in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.

JOSEPH KAYSER.
