SOAP AMALGAMATING AND MIXING MACHINE.

Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 23, 1914.
Application filed December 20, 1911. Serial No. 666,939.
1 State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Soap Amalgamating and Mixing Machines, of which the following is a specification.
It has been customary in the past to mix soap chips, color, perfume, etc, in a mixing cylinder which is mounted'on an axis so as to tilt for discharging the mixture.
It is one of the objects of my invention to simplify the construction so that it can be made economically and compact and so that the material can be put in to the mixing chamber and removed without tilting the chamber.
Another object is to more thoroughly mix the ingredients so that when they go through the milling and plodding machines uniform cakes of soap will be produced.
Briefly described the invention in the form illustrated co nsistsin a receptacle having an opening with one or more doors at the top for filling the machine with soap chips, perfume, coloring matter and any other ingredients which it is desired to utilize. Inside of the receptacle are arranged a number of rotary mixing blades some of which have a right hand pitch and others a left hand pitch so as to cause the chips and other ingredients to be thrown backward and forward thus giving a thorough mixing and insuring the breaking upof the chips into small particles. This does away with one operation of milling. The lower front portion of the receptacle is provided with an outlet closed by a hinged door. This door is provided with locking-bolts and an operating handle and counterweights are connected to the door to enable it to be more readily opened and to hold it in position. A discharge chute is provided at the bottom of the machine extending forward from the outlet to facilitate the removal of the contents.
Figure 1, is an end view of a machine embodying the improvements of my invention, the outlet door being shown open, Fig. 2, is a front view of the receptacle of the machine, the door being partially open. Fig. 3, is a plan view of the receptacle. Fig. 1, is a vertical sectional view showing in full lines the doors closed and in dotted lines the outlet door partially open. Fig. 5, is a detail view of the mixing element.
The receptacle 1 is formed of suitable ma terial and mounted on a standard or support 2. The top of the receptacle has an opening closed by one or more doors such as 3. and L hinged at the rear edge 5. These doors may be held down or locked by means of one or more bolts 6 hinged as at 7 and provided with a wing nut 8 for engaging the front edge of a door.
The lower front portion of the casing is provided with an outlet 10 extending from near the center of the bottom toward the front and a door 11 for closing it. This door is hinged at 12 and has a counter weight 13 at the rear connected by means of cords or chains 14, 14 which pass over pulleys 15 and 16. Looking bolts 17, 17 are carried by guides 18, 18 on the front of the door 11 and adapted to engage in suitable recesses 19, in the frame of the machine. In the center of the front of the door 11 a T- shaped lever 20 is pivoted at 21. The two short arms 22, 22 are connected by links 23, 23 to the bolts 17, 17. The lever and bolts may be operated by the handle 24 to retract the bolts from the frame and allow the door to be swung forwardly and upwardly. The counter weight holds the door in any position.
The bottom of the receptacle is preferably semi-cylindrical, the axis of the shaft 25 being the axis of the cylinder. The outlet chute 26 extends from about the center of the receptacle just back of the lower edge of the opening 10 forwardly and downwardly and side flanges 27, 27 are provided which extend as shown in Fig. 1. The door 11 is adapted to swing between the flanges 27, 27 so that as the door is opened the contents gradually pass down the chute 26 between the flanges 27, 27 without losing any material.
Vhen the door 11 is partially open as shown by the dotted lines in Fig. 4 the ingredients can begin to run out down the chute 26 between the flanges 27, 27 beneath the lower edge of the door 11.
On the shaft 25 are mounted a number of blades such as 28 and 29 which rotate with the shaft. Some of these blades have a right hand pitch and some a left hand pitch so that as the shaft is rotated the ingredients in the receptacle are thrown first to the right and then to the left by the different blades The shaft pases through the end walls of the receptacle and has a gear wheel on one end meshing with gear 31 on the counter shaft 32 beneath the receptacle. This shaft 32 has fast and loose pulleys 33, 34 by means of which the shaft 32, pinion 31, gear 30,
lVhile the cover at the top is a desired element in most cases it will be obvious that certain advantages of the machine be accomplished without the use of a cover.
It will also be obvious that the exact location of the inlet .at the top may be varied and that other changes may be made in the arrangement and construction without departing from the spirit and scope of this invention.
I do not intend the claims to be limited by the particular terms employed so far as required by the prior art.
WVhat I claim is 1. In an amalgamator, a relatively stationary receptacle having a cylindrically curved bottom open from approximately the lowest point in the bottom to a point in the front wall of the receptacle higher than such lowest point, a swinging door hinged at its upper edge to the front wall of the receptacle and curved downwardly and inwardly to form when closed a continuation of the cylindrically curved bottom, a discharge chute extending downwardly and forwardly from the lowest point of the outlet opening in the bottom and provided with upstanding confining flanges at the sides of the same embracing the ends of the hinged door, a mixing element in the receptacle and releasable means securing the door closed whereby said door will normally support and confine the material within the receptacle and will when swung open release the confined material and permit the entire receptacle contents to flow downwardly through the discharge chute between the confining end flanges.
2. In an amalgamator, a relatively stationary receptacle having a cylindrically curved bottom open from approximately the lowest point in the bottom to a point in the front wall of the receptacle higher than such lowest point, a swinging door hinged at its upper edge to the front wall of the receptacle and curved downwardly and inwardly to form when closed a continuation of the cylindrically curved bottom, a discharge chute extending downwardly and forwardly from the outlet and provided with upstanding flanges at the side edges of the same embracing the ends of the hinged door to thereby guide the door in its outward swinging movement and confine the material supported "by said door to said discharge chute, means for locking the door closed, means for swinging the door open to release the material confined in the receptacle and a mixing element in the receptacle. 1
