FEED-REGULATOR FOR FLOUR-MILLS.
Specification of Letters Patent. Application led January 25, 1910. Serial No.
To all 'whom 'it may concern.'
Be it known that I, GEORGE H. HoT'inL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Strasburg, in the county of Shenandoah and State of Virginia, have made certain new and useful Improvements in Feed- Regulators for F lour-Mills, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in devices for feeding grain to the rolls of flour mills, and it consists in the constructions, combinations and arrangements hereinafter described and claimed.
An object of my invention is to provide in which the feeding' of the grain is accomplished by gravity, without the necessity of employing ecceiitrics, springs, vibrating attachments, with their necessary accompaniment of shafting, pulleys, or belts.
A further object of my invention is to provide a device in which the grain may be fed in a thin stream to the rolls at a varying speed with a novel means for directing tie grain to one portion or another of the l, and novel means for adjusting the directing means.
Other objects and advantages will appear in the following specification and the novel features of the device will be particularly pointed out in the appended claim.
My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, iii which,
Figure l is a perspective View showing one embodiment of my invention; Fig. 2 is inclined shelves; and Fig. 3 means for attaching` the guide or distributing members.
In carrying out my invention I provide the two side members A and B. Iivotally secured between these side members is a series of inclined shelves like those shown in Fig. l. The upper shelf C is provided with a series of wedge shaped distributing members D These distributing members are secured to the shelf C by means of screws wliicl through the under one edge, while at the other edge of the shelf is an upturned curved Patented Sept. 6, 1910. 539,986.
