DANIEL FRANCIS Moa'GAN, or JACKSON, onio. A
is a speciication.
This invention relates generally to moisture absorbers, and more particularly to one of that class employed for removing the moisture from the atmosphere of rooms in a building. A A
The object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which shall be simple of construction, shall be portable, shall be capable of being suspended from an overhead support,.or of restingupon the floor of a roomshall be readily permeable by air, thus i i i l i .i e
to cause the hygroscopic agent employed-to have the maximum of efficiency and ra idity of action, shall be adapted for rea( y recharging, when necessary, and for the removal of the precipitated moisture without causing the latter to contact with the absorbing agent, and which will be durable and capable of long continued use without danger of derangenient `or deterioration.
- With the above and other objects in view,
as will appear as the nature of the invention is better understood, the same consists, gen` lerally stated, in a moisture-absorbing device embodying a gridded or openwork container 'for the hygroscopic agent, and a support therefor constituting a water trap or pan, the latter being provided with means to permit ready discharge of the condensed moisture without subjecting it to contact with the absorbing agent.
As a means for transporting the device, a suitable bail or handle is provided, and this is furnished with an eye or loop, whereby the device may be suspended from the ceiling of a room, or from an overhead sup ort where it is desired that the vabsorption o the moisture shall take place above the floor of the room.
Further and more specific details o f construction and points of novelty of the invention will hereinafter be fully set forth.
In the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, and 1n which like characters of reference indicate corresponding parts, Figure 1 is a view in side elevation, partly in section, of one form of moisture absorbing device embod ng the features of the present invention. ig. 2 is a horizontal secspecimen@ of Letters Patent.

tional view, on a reduced scale, taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1, and looking in. the direction of the arrow thereon. l"ig.'3is a view 1n side elevation, partly iny section, of a modified form of the invention. Fi 4 is a i um@ STATES' PTENT OFFICE# fragmentary detail sectional view o a portion of the device.
The device shown in Figs. 1 vand-2 comprises a container lv for the hygroscopic agent, which may be 1n substance suited to the purpose, such as calcium chlorid, and a i support therefor embodying a ring or annu' lus 2 having a beaded edge, a drip pan 3, and y a plurality of bars or ribs 4 connecting the drip pan and the ring. T he container 1 may be constructed of rcticulated metal fabric, as shown, or of foraminous sheet metal, as may be preferred, and has secured to its upper edge, in any preferred manner, two bands 5 to the inner one of which is secured a plurality of catches 6 that are adapted to rest 1 upon the beaded edge of the ring and thus sustain the container in proper position rela` tively to the drippan 3, which, -as shown in Fig. l, is of sulliciently greater diameter than the. container to insure the catching and retention of the condensed moisture that es capes from the hygroscopii': agent held in the container. The ribs 4 are herein shown as approximately rectangular in cross section a t ough this is not absolutely essential, an
their ends are secured to the ring and to the drip an by rivets 7. .The drip pan is provided) with a suitable, spout 8 by which the water may be removed therefrom.
In order to facilitate transportation of the device,4 a suitable bail or handle 9 is provided, which is connected with the ring through the medium of headed studs or pins 10. The intermediate portion of this bail is provided with an eye or loop 11 by which it may be suspended from an overhead support. As will be obvious, the container 1 may readily be removed from the ring 2 for the purpose of cleansing when necessary, or
for any 4other reason.
In the form of the invention shown in 3, thc container is of substantially the same construction as that above described, but, instead of emplo ing the ring 2, drip pan 3, and ribs 4, a bucket/12 is used, the same being provided with any desired number of orifices 13 that extend below the lower end of the container, thus to insure'proper circulation of air through the device, and its sub jection to the absorbing agent. The bottom i portion of the bucket or support 12 is p 10- vided with a suitable spout 14. s
In using either of the devices shown, after the container has been sup lied with thc absorbing agent, it is place y at any desired point in a rooni, and as the moisture 1s absorbeal and condensed, it will escape through the meshes or openinvs of the container, and pass to the bottom ci the support, whence it may readily be removed. will be seen by reference to Fig. 3, the container 1 is of sufficiently less diameter than the support or bucket 12 as to insure ree circulation of air around the entire .exposed surface of the container.
The hygroscopic agent may be a divided mass, or may be in large lumps, as may be preferred, and as it deliquesces, the smaller particles will esca through the openin s of the container an fall to the bottom o the support, whence they' may readily be 'removed. 1
It will be seen from the foregoing description that although the im rovements herein described are siin le in c aracter, they will be thoroughly eicient for the objects designed and capable of application for use in a variety of positions.
I elaimz- 1. A device of the class described comprising an openwork support, an o enwerk container arranged therein and being of less div aineter than the sup ort, a bandsecured to the, upper portion o the container, a lurality of'catchesswed to the band an arranged to engage the u per edge of tnes'u port, and a bail or han e connected with t e support. i
2. A device of the class described comprising a support embodying an annulus, a drip panmrplurality of ribs connecting the annulus and pan, a container arra ed within the sup ort, a band secured to t e'upper portion o the container, a plurality of catches carried by the band and arranged to engage with the annulus, and a bail or handle connected with the annulus.
3. A-device of the class described comprising a support embodying an annulus, a drip pan, and a plurality of ribs connecting the annulus and pan, a container arianged within the. sup ort and being of less transverse diameter t ian the same, a band secured to the 'upper portion of the container, and a plurality of catches carried by the band and arranged to engage with the anuulus.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as lmy own, I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
