' To all whom-it may concern:

"ourinvention will bc nor'e readily under-' stood from the following descriptiontakeirtops." I I .The principal object of our invention is' to.

' Be it known that We, JOSEPH Rronrmosont,

. a subject. of the King of Great Britain,' (who has declared his intention of becoming a citizen of the United States,) and JACOB -Nn1:r, a. citizen of the United States, bothj residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia. and State of .Pennsylvania, havc jointly invented certain new and useful Improvements in Dyeing-Machines, of

which; the following is a. specification.

Our invention relates to dyeing machines,

and it has particular]relation -to the con-.

struction .a nd arrangementof a machine for dyeing raw stock such as ra1n1e, ute in cones, raw wool, raw cotton and worsted provide .a machine for dyeing textile materials in which the dye liquor will thoroughly permeate the n1aterial to the end that all,

parts thereof will beuniformly-dyed;

The nature and characteristic features of in connection with the accompanying .drawings forming part hereof, in which Figure 1. is a vertical central section,

partly in elevation, of a machine embodying the main features of our present invention;

Fig. Qis a top plan viewthereof, and Fig. 3

is a horizontal section thereof taken approxibottom thereof with a horizontal diaphragm 5,. forming a compartment -o between" the same and the bottom '1 of the tank 4. Removably mounted in the diaphragm 5 is a material contannng receptacle 8, which is pro? 1 vidcd with a zone of perforations 9'mid-way between the respective upper and lower ends thereof for a purpose to 'beheremafter more fully set forth. The lower end of-the material containing i'eceptacIeB is provided with 4 space, 11. The upper. end of the interial' containing receptacle 8 is closed by means of acover or llCl 12 which maybe. threaded on a perforated bottom 10, which is preferably arranged a slight distance. above the lower end of said receptaclc 8 to thereby form it otherwise rcmo-vahly secured thereto as clearly shown n Fig. 1 of the draw1iigs.

A drain pipe-22' may also be provided toremove the dye. liquorfromythima'fii chine and this'drein pipe 22; may h'fcontrolledby means. of itva'lve 23'.='i.=

In the-operation of the device themateria'lu. is placed within thereceptacle 8 amt-the, coverdrlid l2isecured in-place,'the perfo-j' 1 rated diaphragm 15- serving to maintain-the space 16 at the upperend of receptacle 8 free from the material. vA .suflicient quantity of dye liquor having been placed in: the machine, the pump QO pgill cause'thesam'e to circulate from the oulefitanlt 4 into the com-u pertinent 6, thenceinto thes'pace 11 at the lower end of receptacle 8,' from whence. it

portion of the dye liquor will passthrough" the perforated bottom;10, and another por-f tion thereof will pass -Jthr0u'gh the pipes 17 into the upper chamber 16 above the perforated diaphragm "15 and thence into the i115 terior of the receptacle 8. It'will be seen that the dye liquor willbe forced from bothends of the tank toward the lcenter thereof,f and will pass through the zone of'perforhtions 9. Ithas been found that the oppos ing streams of dye liquor passing into the material containing receptacle 8 will causeg the material to be thoroughly permeated and" "uniformly subjected to" the actipn of the dy'e and this has been found to be true even with the materials in a partly manufactured condition in which the fibers are closely com- 'pacted; -The' valves-1S in the pipe 17 will serve to control the relative flow fromthe The cover or lid 12-of the receptaclejinmy. two. ends of the material containing recepta- '-l from the cover or lid 12 is a series of st-udg 14' which serve to. support a perforated diaphragni- 15 so as to form a space- 16 betwecnii said diaphragm and the cover or lid 12 proper. *A series of'pipes 17 form a com-f" munication between the space 1'1 belowtlre-- perforatedbottom 10 of the receptaelef8 and theupper-Qchamb'er 16 above thepei fo f cle 8. It will of course be understood that terior' 0 Y ,saidmaterial containing receptacle at both ends thereof, and said receptacle-haw ing a. centrally "arranged discharge means i theouter. tank 4 may be :made large'rand a pluralit of material containing receptacles -8 may mounted in the (liapliragmz'i if desired.
