Unirse STATES PaTaNT @Trina CHARLES DELESCLUZE, OF NEVYORK, N. Y.
IMPROVEMENT IN DISTILUNG APPARATUS.
Specication forming part of Letters Patent No. 9.3 (lated October l2, 1852.
To all whom, t may concern.-
Be itknown that I, GHaRLns'DnLnscLUzr., of the city and county of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Distilling and Reetifying Spirits without the Use of Charcoal; and I do declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact 'description of the same, reference beingmade to the annexed drawings, making a part of this speciiieation, in which- Figurel is a front elevation. Figs. 2, 8, 4, and 5 are parts in detail; and similar letters refer to similar parts throughout.
The nature of my invention consists in apparatus for distilling and rectifying spirits without interruption and without the use of charcoal. I can distill by means of my appatus as pure a spirit as that which is imported into this country from Montpelier, France.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe its construction and operation.
I fill the boiler A,whieh is made of copper, with whisky or with any other spirituous liquidintended for distillation, and open the cocks attached to the pipes B and L, which pipes are attached to the boiler A and connected with the column Z, and keep the cocks attached to the boiler P, and also connected to the column Z, closed. On boiling the contents of the boiler Athe alcoholic steam arising therefrom forces its way through the pipe B into the compartment No. l of the column Z. This compartment, as are the others attached to said column, is composed of a copper box, to which is attached at the bottom thereof the steam-pipes B and Q. The top or cover of sa'id box is constructed in the shape of a reversed'hat, with a wide rim through the body of the hat and near the top thereof. Six holes are bored at equal distance from one another, and each hole is covered by a small curved tube which is soldered to the body and descends within one-quarter inch of the rim, (see section Fig. 2, column Z, and section Fig. 8, marked m,) water being in each of the compartments of the column Z. The curved tubes are plunged therein one and threefourths of an inch deep. The alcoholic steam which has entered that compartment passes through the curved tubes and boils the water in that compartment, and passes through the curved tubes ofthe box of the compartment No.
2in the like manner, and so on through the different compartments ofthe column Z, which are twenty-two in number, and of the same construction. The alcoholic steam, having passed through thetwenty-two compartments of the column Z, consequently througlithe water contained in each compartment, enters into the horizontal worm E, composed of twenty coils, and has become so light by the rectification that it forces its way through all the tubes of the horizontal worm E covered with cold water with wonderful rapidity into the vertical worm of sixteen coils, marked O. On that worm a stream of cold water continually flows and condenses the steam into a liquid state, which runs into the proof-glass (marked WV) at the bottom of the coil from ninety-live to one hundred per cent. above proof. Vhile the refined steam passes into the vertical worm O the impurities of a heavier nature are condensed yinto the horizontal worm E, and pass through the tubes marked II and I, and thence into the column Z through the compartment No. 20 of said column Z, (section-Fig. 5.) In each of the compartments of the column Z a tube is attached, marked K, which projects about two inches above the base ofthe compartment, which causes the retention of the liquid therein at a level with the mouth of the tube K. This tube runs into the compartment below to within one-quarter inch of the base thereof, and so on through each of the compartments of the column Z. Consequently the condensed liquid which returns from the horizontal worm E into the pipe H and J into the compartment No. 20, as above stated, overflows and runs down through the tube K into the compartment No. 19, which causes that compartment to overiiow into the one underneath, and in the like manner the returned liquid runs through the different compartments of the column Z into the pipe L, and from that pipe into the boiler A through the elbow-pipe L, and is distilled anew by the same process as above stated, the elbow-pipe L being turned up in the boiler A and I? within two inches of the tops or covers of said boilers. (See boilers A and I?, Fig. 2, letter L.)
After a few hours of uninterrupted distillation it is observed by the proof-glass W that the spirit is weakening. To ascertain,
then,whether any spirit remains in boiler A, I open the oook attached to lthe pipe a of the boiler A, and the steani,eo1ning directly from that boiler, runs through the pipe u and descends into the Worm V,Whiehis covered by a stream of coldwaterpassing on it, con densesfthe steam, and the liquid runs into the proofglass y, and if the condensed steam or liquid marks cipher (0,) I at once Close the vcooks of the pipes B and L of the boiler A and open the corresponding eoeks attached to the pipes Q and L of the boiler P, and cause the contents of that boiler which I desire to rectify to boil, and Wit-hout interruption or delay perform the same operation as before explained. I accordinglyV employ alternately each of said boilers.
What I elailn as my invention, and desire to secure to myself by Letters Patent of the United States, is-
l. The combination and arrangement of the boilersy A and P,`oonneeted by the pipes B and L With the column Z,Whieh enables me to work continually and Without interruption by distilling` the contents of one boiler While the other boiler is being iilled, and thus distilling the contents of one boiler immediately after the other, as seen in the description of the Work in the former part of this specification.
2. The combination and arrangement of the Worm V, situated between the two boilers A and I), and of the pipes u and zr, which connect the boilers A and P with the Worm V, enabling me to test and ascertain the nature of the liquid contained in the boiler under operation, and to ascertain When the contents of that boiler are distilled.
