HARRY W. HENRY, OF CORTLAND, NEW YORK, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO WILLIAM H. WOOLLAND, OF CORTLAND, NEW YORK.
EGG-WASHIN J MACHINE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 7, 1908.
Application filed January 14. 1907- Serial No. 352,171.
Be it known that I, .HARRY W. HENRY, a
citizen of the United States, residing at Cortland, in the county of Cortland and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Iflgg-Ilashing Machines; 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. a
Thisinvention relates to improvements in egg washing machines.
The object of the invention is to provide a machine of this character by means of which eggs may be quickly and thoroughly Washed and cleansed without the use of acids or other cleaning compounds.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts,- as will be hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings :-I"igure 1 is partly a side view and partly a sectional view of an egg washing machine constructed in accordance with the'invention; and Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the hollow brush with which the eggs are scrubbed.
Referring to the drawings, 1 denotes a base having secured thereto an upwardlyprojecting standard 2. On the standard 2 near the upper end thereof is secured a pair of laterally-projecting, parallel bearing arms 3, on the outer ends of which are arran ed bearings 4. In the bearings 4 is journa led a vertical]. -disposed, hollow operating shaft 5. The s aft 5 is provided with reduced annular bearing surfaces 6 engaged by the bearings4 on the ends of the arms 3. Fixedly mounted on the shaft 5, preferably midway between the arms 8, is a driving pulley 7, said pulley being adapted to be connected by a suitable driving belt or cord with a suitable operating mechanism, not shown. The arms 3 are preferabl braced at their inner ends by a plate or b ock 8.
The lower end of the shaft 5 is tapered and threaded, as shown at 9, and on said tapered and threaded end is adapted to be screwed a scrubbing brush 10.
' and rapi The brush 10 is here shown and preferably consists of a hollow, substantially hemi-spherical body-portion 12. On one side of the body-portion 12 is formed a boss having a tapered and threaded recess formed therein, which is adapted to be screwed into engagement with the tapered and threaded lower end of the shaft- 5. On
the inner side of the body-portion 12 of the brush are arranged imvardly-projecting bristles 13, said bristles being preferably arranged in tufts, the upper ends of which are secured in radially-disposed apertures 14 formed in the walls of the body-portion 12. The bristles 13'may be of an suitable construction, but are preferably formed of fiber.
Arranged throu h the hollow shaft 5 and connected at its lower end with the inner side of the hollow brush 10 is a water conductin pipe 15, said pipe being supported and held in position by means of an arm or bar 16 secured to the inner side of the standard 2 adjacent to its u er end. The tube or pipe 15 is held rigid y the arm 16 and does not revolve with the shaft and brush, so that the water discharged from the inner end of the tube strikes directly upon the egg which is held in the brush by the operator. The up er end of the tube or pipe 15 is adapted to be connected with a suita le water supply pi e, as shown.
n practice, it will be understood that first one end of the egg and then the other is in sorted into the open end of the hollow brush and thoroughly scrubbed and cleaned thereby. The rapid revolution of the bristles on the inside of the brush together with the constant sup ly of clean water will thoroughly d ly cleanse the egg engaged therewith without the necessity of applying any form of cleansing preparation.
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, the construction and operation of the invention will be readily understood without requiring a more extended explanation.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters-Patent, is:
In an egg washing machine, a frame rovided with bearings, a tubular rotary siiaft j ournaled in said bearings, a hollow curvilinear cleaning brush removably threaded onto m the end of and for movement with said shaft,
means for operating the latter, and a waterpi e extenduig through the shaft concentric 5 with the axis of rotation of and for supplying water to the brush. t
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set y hand in presence of two subscribing witmesses.
HARRY W. HENRY.
