DEVICE FOR CLEANING CAPSULES.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented April 28, 1908.
Application filed Kay 1a, 1906, Serial No. 317,513. Renewed much 21, 1908. Serial mi. 422,490.
To all whom it may concern;
Be it known that I, JOSEPH PERCY REM- INGTON, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at No. 1832 Pine street, in the city of Philadelphia, State of *Pennsylvania, have invented .certain new and useful Improvements in Devices for Cleaning Capsnles, whereof the following-is a full, clear, and exact description, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to makev and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
My invention relates to a device for cleani135 capsules whereby a large munber of caps es may be quickly and easily cleaned by friction with some suitable cleansing material, while at the same time the device itself is of such simple construction that it may bereadily taken apart for charging and re-eharging', and each part separately and thoroughly cleansed.
In the accompanying drawings Figure I is a view in vertical section through my device, showing the capsules and cleansing material in their respective places, and Fig. II isa plan view of the bottom of one of the receptacles forming part of the device.
A represents a cup-shaped receptacle preferab y cylindrical having a-bead B on its outer circumference near its base. C is a similarly shaped receptacle having a similar bead I, on its outer circumference near its base. Receptacle C has a slightly smaller diameter'than the mouth of the receptacle A, and is adapted to fit securely therein, so that the bead I rests on the mouth of the receptacle A. The base D of the receptacle C is formed of sheet metal having the perforations E E, such 'erforations being sufiiciently large to enabila the cleansing material to pass readily through them, yet smaller than the diameter of the capsules so as to prevent their passage from one receptacle to the other.
The receptacle O is provided with a beadedclose fitting top F which is removable therefrom. G. represents the cleansing material contained in the receptacle A, and H the capsules contained in receptacle C.
The operation of the device is as follows In the receptacle Ais placed a desired uan tity of suitable cleansing material, sue as I sand or sugar. The capsules to be cleaned are placed in the rece tacle O, which is then closed'by the lid F. T e receptacle C is fitted into the receptacle A with the bead resting on 5 5 the mouth 0 said receptacle. The device is then inverted and the cleaning material enters the receptacle 0 through the perforations E E. The device is then shaken briskly and the friction of the cleansing material quickly frees the surface of the capsules from any impurities thereon. The device is then restored to its original position whereupon the cleansing material returns to the receptacle A through the perforations E E," and the cleaned capsules may be easily removed from the receptacle 0.
The construction above described is not only simple and economical to manufacture,
but is readily cleansed. The materials employed in the manufacture of capsules are oftensticky or highly colored, so that in or der to prevent a different batch from being contaminated by the residuum left from the cleaning of the preceding one, it is absolutely necessary that all parts of the apparatus should be accessible, and as free as possible from interstices, in which such material is liable to be retained.
- It will be noted that both the receptacle A, and the cover, as 'well as the receptacle O, afiord complete access for cleaning purposes, and that the perforated sheet metal bottom of the receptacle has no interstices which render cleaning difficult.
Having thus described my invention, I claim:
A capsule cleaner, comprising a cylindrical receptacle, a second cylindrical receptacle, having adapted to fit the month of said first receptacle, and a cover for said second receptacle,
said three elements being separably removable; substantially as described.
In witness whereof I have hereunto signed 95 my name at Philadelphia, State of Pennsylvania, this seventh day of May, A. D., 1906.
JOSEPH PERCY REMINGTON.
