Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 2'7, 1915.
Application filed May 27, 1915. Serial No. 30,822.
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, LILLIAN B. HETTEL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Sauce-Strainer, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to strainers, and more particularly to strainers of a type suitable for preparing and refining various kinds of sauces and analogous materials, such, for instance, as catsup.
More particularly I seek to provide a sauce strainer having means for subjecting the pulpy substances therein contained to the uniform action of a sieve through which the pulpy materials pass.
My invention further relates to means for enabling certain kinds of foreign substances contained with the sauce or other material being operated upon, to be held back from the material passing through, and ultimately removed from the strainer! Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification and in which like letters indicate like parts.
Figure 1 is a perspective of my improved strainer complete; Fig. 2 is a section on the eolline 22, Fig. 3, looking in the direction of the arrow and showing my strainer as used in connection with a vessel for receiving the sauce or other material operated upon; Fig. 3 is a plan view of the mechanism shown in Fig. 2; Fig. a-is a section on the line H, Fig. 2, looking in the direction of the arrow; and Fig. 5 is a fragmentary perspective showing certain parts employed at the top of the strainer.
A vessel 6 is conveniently used to receive the material from the strainer. Supported by the vessel 6 is a pan 7 having a bottom 8 of substantially annular form, the pan being further provided with an annular flange 9 which extends out over the top edge of the vessel 6. Mounted upon this flange 9 are a pair of cleats 10 disposed upon its opposite edges, and extending in opposite directions as indicated more particularly in Fig. 3. A supporting frame 11, made in this instance of a single integral metallic strip, is provided with a pair of outwardlyturned feet 12 adapted for engagement with the cleats 10 in such manner that the middle portion of the frame 11 extends a little distance above the top of the pan 7 as indicated in Fig. 2. In practice the frame 11 is made from a metallic strip bent to different angles. The middle portion of this strip is provided with an opening 13 and with a slot 1 1 merging thereinto, this hole and slot together constituting an opening of substantially the form of a ke -hole. Secured to the inner edge of the annular bot tom 8 is a ring 15 and a sieve 16, this sieve having a substantially frusto-conical form. Secured to the lower end of the sieve 16 is a sleeve 17. Another sleeve 18 having a diameter shorter than the general diameter of they annular pan 8 is provided, the upper edge of this pan terminating in an annular bead 19. Another sieve 20 having a substantially frusto-conical form is secured to the sleeve 18 and depends therefrom. The lower end of the sieve 20 is secured to a sleeve 21 which is longer than the sleeve 17 and is mounted concentrically within the same so as to make a 'neat sliding fit. Extending diametrically across the sleeve 18 is a strip 22, the ends of this strip being bent downwardly and secured to the adjacent inner surface of the sleeve 18, as may be understood from Fig. 2. The strip 22 carries a disk 23 secured rigidly to it, and this disk is also secured firmly to the lower end of a shaft 24:. The parts are arranged in such a manner that the strip 22 and parts carried by it are supported upon the lower end of the shaft 2i and may be raised and lowered as indicated by full and dotted lines in Fig. 2. The shaft 24 is provided with a horizontally extending portion 25 serving as a crank, this crank at its outer end carrying a knob 26 which may be used as a handle. The shaft 24 is provided with a boss 27 extending radially from it, this boss being so proportioned as to be readily passed through the slot 14-. hen the shaft 21 is lifted upward and turned to a proper angle relatively to other parts, the boss 27 can be passed upwardly through the slot 14: and rested upon the adjacent surface of the strip 10, so as to support the sleeve 18, the sieve 20and sleeve 21 in their respective uppermost positions, as indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 2. When these parts are in their respective lowermost positions, as shown by full lines in Fig. 2, the sieves 16 and 20 are comparatively close together.
The operation of the device is as follows: The parts being assembled and arranged as described, the shaft 24 is turned and raised,
as above set forth, so that the sleeve 18 and parts carried by it occupy the respective positions indicated for them in Fig. 2. The sauce or other material to be strained is now poured into the pan 7. The material being of a moreor less pulpy nature flows downwardly between the screens 16 and 20 so as to completely or partially fill the intervening conical space between these sieves. The operator next grasps the knob 26, and by turning the crank 25 a little,-if necessary, passes the boss 27 downwardly through the slot 14. This done the operator presses down Slightly upon the knob 26 and at the same time swings this knob around in a circle. This causes the screen 20 to press against the material being operated upon so as .to squeeze the same through the meshes ofthe two screens. The material is thus discharged from the outer surface of the screen 16 and from the inner surface of the screen 20. The material thus drops downwardly into the vessel 6 The shaft 24 is rotated until the screen 20 occupies its lowermost position; that is to say, until the inner and outer screens are brought almost into engagement. This done, the shaft 24 is raised as above described, by aid of the knob 26, and the process is repeated. If it should happen that any foreign substance is enveloped in the material operated upon and this foreign sub stance is incapable of passing through the screens, or either'of them, the foreign substance is of course retained by the screens and may be substantially removed.
The apparatus abovedescribed is found in practice to be very eflicient, and by its aid large quantities of sauce can be treated 1n a comparativlely short space of time.
Only one operator is required to handle the device.
' I do not limit myself to any particular use'to be made of the device. Neither do I limit myself to any particular materials to be employed in its construction nor in all instances to the precise arrangement of the parts here shown.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
l. A sauce strainer comprising a receptacle provided with an opening, a sieve of substantially frusto-conical form secured to said receptacle and depending therefrom, a second sieve also of substantially frusto-conical form disposed partially within said firstmentioned sieve and revoluble relatively thereto, and means controllable at the will of the operator for turning said second-mentioned sieve relatively to the said first-mentioned sieve and also for moving said second-mentioned sieve in the general direction of its axis of rotation relatively to the said second-mentioned sieve.
2. In a sauce strainer, the combination of a pan of substantially annular form, a sieve connected with said pan and having a substantially frusto-conical form, a second sieve extending partially into said first-mentioned sieve and also having a substantially frustoconical form, a sleeve connected with said second mentioned sieve and extending through the apex end of said first-mentioned sieve, and means controllable at the will of the operator for rotating said secondmentioned sieve relatively to said first-mentioned sieve.
' 3. A sauce strainer comprising a pan having an annular form, a sieve mounted upon said pan and depending therefrom, a sleeve having a substantially annular form, a second sieve carried by said sleeve and depending into said first-mentioned sieve, said second-mentioned sieve having a substantially annular form, and means controllable at the will of the operator for moving said secondmentioned sieve in the general direction of its axis.
4. In a strainer, the combination of a pan, a sieve carried thereby, a sleeve mounted upon said sieve, a second sleeve located within said first-mentioned sleeve and adapted to move relatively to the same, a second sieve connected with said second-1nentioned sleeve, a supporting member connected with said second-mentioned sieve and adapted to be used for turning the latter, a revoluble shaft connected with said supporting member for actuating the same, a lug mounted upon said shaft, and a frame provided with an opening through which said shaft extends, said frame being further provided with a slot through which said lug may be passed.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
