SPECIFICATION form g part of Letters Patent no]. 715,734, dated December 16, 1902.
Application filed March 10, 1902- Serial Ne. 97,461. (No model.)
' Be it known that I, ALEX V. ACKERMAN,
citizen of the United States, residing at Paterson, in the county of Passaic and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Clothes-Wringers; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
This invention relates to liquid-extractors;'
and it has reference particularly to that class of this apparatus in which pressure is em ployed to efiect the extracting.
As shown in the accompanying drawings, my invention is preferably adaptable as a clothes-wringer; but it may be used in other kindred adaptations.
The principal object of the invention is to provide an apparatus of this-nature in which a great quantity of material can be operated upon at one time. a .7 v
My invention will be found fully illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein- Figure 1 is a side view of the apparatus, certain parts being broken away, so as to clearly show its construction; and Fig. 2 is a top plan View of said apparatus.
a in said drawings designates two uprights having suitable bases 1), which are connected by a brace c at their lower ends and which at their upper ends are surmounted by an annular trough 01, preferably composed of metal and having lugs d, which extend down out-- side of the uprights and are secured thereto by screws e. This trough .is provided with a discharge-opening f. Said trough is also providedwithaninwardly-extendingintegraland annular flange g and with a central bearing h,
which is connected with the trough by ,inte- On the flange g rests a diskj, preferably formed of wood, said disk being secured to the flange by screws 70. The
I disk forms the bottom of a receptacle whose side wall consists of a seriosof spaced vertical slats or staves Z. These slats or staves are secured in place and kept properly disposed by means of hoops m and screws n, said screws extending through the hoops, one into each slat or stave, and at the bottoms of said slats or staves into the disk j also.
ois adiskdike follower adapted to move mpiand down inthe receptacle. It is reinforced across the top by a metallic strip 9,
yOne endof the disk and strip is formed with aslot q, while at the other end these parts are formed withga slit 4, extending in from the edge of the disk. The slot and the slit receive parallel and verticalrods 3, each of which is formed with an annular shoulder 25 near its upper end, against which the follower may take. The slot and slit permit the movement of the follower sidewise thereon when it has been elevated above the top of the receptacle, so that it may be released .fromthat rod s which projects through its slit and turned into the position shown in 'Fig. 1 in order to permit access to the receptacle. In order to secure the follower firmly to the rods when it is in operative position, closing the receptacle, wing nuts u are screwed onto the upper ends of the rods, being adapted to take against the top of the strip 10.
'v-is a vertical threaded shaft which is journaled at its lower end in the brace c and at its upper end in the bearing h. w is a horizontal shaft having a crank a: and being jour naled in one of the uprights a and corresponding lu d and in a bearin '1 formin an integral part of the flange g. The shafts v and w are connected by bevel-gearing a. On the shaft .1) is arranged to engage with its threading a cross-piece 1, which connects the lower ends of the rods .9. It should be remarked that these rods penetrate the disk j and the flange g and that at each of these points there is arranged between the adjacent faces of.
said partsj and g a packing-ring 2, which provents the water extracted from the material in the receptacle leaking down through the openings for said rods in the flanges g. It is thought that it isnot necessary to describe the operationof the apparatus further than to -say that after the materials from which the liquid is to be extracted have been placed in the receptacle and the follower properly secured on the rods, as above de-' scribed, it is only necessary to turn the crank w, and consequently the shaft 0, to cause the follower to exert pressure upon the material as the rods are drawn down bygthe cross-piece 1 and in turn draw down the follower. The
water or other liquid thus extracted runs'oif If itis desired to wring out materials whose colors are likelyto run, I provide the apparatus with an auxiliary follower 3, which acts as a spacer between the materials, the colored goods being placed beneath it.
5 Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim'as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a liquid extracting apparatus, the combination of a suitable support, a threaded Io shaft journaled in said support, means for rotating said shaft, a cross-piece engaging said shaft, a receptacle having'drain-openings and surmounting said support rods extending through the be .fcin oi said. receptacle I5 and connected to said cross-piece at their lower ends for movement therewith, and a follower arranged in said receptacle, said follower being pivotally connected to one and detachably connected to the other of said 29 rods, substantially as described.
2. In a liquid-extractor, the combination of an annular trough having a central hearing portion and ribs integrally connecting said bearing portion with the trough, a vertical shaft journaled at its upper end in said bearing portion,a cross-piece having a threaded connection with said shaft, an apertured ALEX V. ACKERMAN.
