Description
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ANNIE KISSEL, OF COUNCIL BLUFFS, IOWA.
COLANDER.
Application filed. September 4, 1906.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ANNIE KISSEL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Council Bluffs, in the county of Pottawattamie and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Colanders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in colanders of the class designed to agitate the contents thereof by rotative means.
The primary object of the present invention is to produce an article for general use as a colander, and especially convenient for the handling of fruit. After fruit has been boiled, a separation of the skins and seeds from the nutrient portion is desired, and itis considered that the invention is well adapted for this purpose.
The invention also includes an economical construction whereby it may be constructed at very slight expense, comparatively speakmg;
Another object is the presentation of an adjustable supporting-frame whereby the colander may be operatively secured to receiving-vessels of different sizes or diameters.
With these and other objects in view the invention presents a new construction and arrangement of parts, fully described herein and in the appended claims, and illustrated by the drawings, wherein,
Figure 1 represents a vertical perspective view of the invention. Fig. 2 represents a vertical end view of the receptacle and broken-away portion of the rotating-crank. Fig. 3 is a vertical end view of the rotatable, roller-bearing disks and operating-crank. Fig. 4 is a vertical sectional view of the receptacle and rotatable disks and sustainingarms, the rollers being removed. Fig. 5 is a front view of Fig. 3 sectioned on line a b, the receptacle being added to the figure. Fig. 6 is a perspective view showing one of the pairs of adjustable supporting-arms secured upon a receiving vessel, the latter being a broken-away figure. Fig. 7 is a per spective end view and Fig. 8 a vertical side,
view of one of the supporting-arms 8 or 9.
Referring now to the several figures in the drawing, the numeral 1 represents a colander receptacle, constructed preferably of sheet metal and having parallel ends 2 and parallel sides 3 curved lengthwise, however at the bottom 4 in the form of a semicircular arc the axis of which coincides with that of the pivotal shaft 27; the end-walls of the receptacle Specification of Letters Patent.

have central shaft-openings 5 and the curved or circular bottom 4 is provided with perforations 6 and upon the outer face of walls 2, above shaft-openings 5 I secure the parallel and horizontally-disposed sleeves 6 and 7.
In order that the receptacle may be conveniently and operatively sustained and secured upon receiving vessels of different diameters, I provide supporting-members 8 and 9 (Figs. 1, 6,) adapted to pass within sleeves 6 and 7, and slidable therein. Since each of these supporting members are formed of a single metal rod bent as hereafter described, they furnish a very economical and effective construction for se-' curing the colander upon a jar, basin or pan found convenient at time of use, practically regardless of the size of such vessel, as will be seen, and each of said members 8 and 9 is formed with outwardly-extending end-parts 12, bent at 13 at substantially a right angle to form the vertically extending part 14 which extends downward a somewhat greater distance, vertically considered, than the space between the bottom of the receptacle and the sleeves, at which point, as at 15, it is bent outwardly and made to traverse upward and parallel with arm 14 to form the contact-arm 16; and at 17, at a distance practically level with the lower extremity of the receptacle, the rod is bent outwardly and thence downwardly as contact-arm 18 in a manner to form the slot c; arm 18 is continued downward parallel with arms 14 and 16 to a point somewhat lower than the latter arms and is there bent at 19 on a plane parallel with sides 3 and curved to form the arch 20, this arch having an altitude somewhat greater than the contact- arms 16 and 18 and it will be understood that slots 0 are adapted to accommodate therein the rim of a receivingvessel 31 (Fig. 6.), the contacting- arms 16 and 18, which form the slots, having a bearing upon, respectively, the inner and outer surfaces of the vessel, the arch also having a bearing upon said outer surface, and since the end-portions 12 slide in sleeves 6 and 7 they may be said to be adjustable therein, and the receptacle may therefore be vertically secured upon and used in connection with receiving-jars or vessels of diiferen diameters.
For the purpose of compressing the contents of the colander and separating the skins or seeds of fruit from the nutrient portion, as well as forcing the nutrient parts through the perforations I employ devices now to be described.
I construct disks 21 and 22 of equal size and rigidly connect them upon parallel adjacent planes as by use of the transverselydisposed links 23 and seat thereon rollers 24. Disk 21 is provided with collar or screw-head 25 rigidly secured upon the center of its in ner surface and disk 22 is provided with the central aperture 26 (Fig. 4.) The disks and rollers thus constructed are placed within the receptacle, the peripheries of the disks being placed closely adjacent to the circular bottom 4, and secured upon shaft 27 which passes through apertures 5 of the receptacle and collar 25; shaft 27 has the crank-arm 28 with handle 29 mounted angularly thereon,
and the threaded end 30 of shaft 27 has screw connection with head 25; it will be understood that shaft 27 may be rotated and will cause rollers 24 to pass successively in close proximity to the inner curved surface of'the receptacle, the contents of the colander being pressed and rolled therebetween in a manner highly effective, to divide the skins or seeds from the nutrient portions of the fruit, and to drive the latter outwardly through the perforations of the end 4.
The device has been found to be very economical in construction; the parts are few and the disks and rollers may be readily removed for cleansing or cleaning, and the features of adjustment have been found convenient in operation.
What I claim as my invention is 1. In a device of the character described, the combination with a body portion having plane side walls and a rounded perforated ottom of a shaft journaled in said side walls, members carried by said shaft, rollers mounted between said members, a pair of horizontally disposedand longitudinally extending sleeves located upon each side of the body portion and a frame for supporting the body portion, said frame consisting of a pair of members and each of said members comprising a pair of rods which are first bent downwardly at their outer ends, then bent to form members adapted to receive the edges of a pan and a portion connecting the last named members, the said rods being slidably disposed within the sleeves.
2. In combination with a colander having containing-walls and a perforated bottom and having sleeves secured upon said containing-walls, of a supporting-frame comprising a pair of rods, each having ends slidably mounted within said sleeves and bent downwardly near. said ends at substantially a right angle and continued beyond the lower plane of the colander and there bent to form contact- arms 16 and 18 and slots 0 and bent Y to form arches 20, substantially as shown.
' 3. In combination with a colander having containing-walls and a perforated bottom and having sleeves secured upon said containingwalls, of a supporting frame comprising a pair of rods each having ends slidably mounted within said sleeves and bent and extended downwardly near said ends, the extended part bent to form contact- arms 16 and 18 and slots 0 and arches 20, substantially as shown and described.
4. In combination, a colander; a colanderframe; said colander having a curved perforated bottom and having containing-walls provided with sleeves secured thereon and a shaft mounted therebetween; a pair of disks rigidly mounted upon said shaft and having rollers mounted near and between their edges; said colander-frame comprising a pair of rods each having ends slidably mounted within said sleeves and bent and extended downwardly near said ends, the extended part being then bent to form slots 0 and arches 20, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have aflixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
ANNIE KISSEL.
