No.118,756. Patented Sep. 5.18m.`
NN@ lwv @www UNITED STATES JAMES TEMPLETON, OF FLORENCE, GEORGIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN COTTON-PRESSES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 118,756, dated September 5, 1871.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES TEMPLETON, of Florence, in the county of Stewart and State of Georgia, have invented a new and Improved Ootf ton-Press; and I do hereby declare the followin g to be a full7 clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing' making a part of this specification, in which the figure is a sectional elevation.
This invention has for its object to enable the follower of a cotton-press to be moved at the beginnin g ofthe pressing operation, when the material is loose, faster than it can be moved in that portion of the operation whentlle material becomes more solid; and it consists in a windlass mounted in a sliding bar that is placed in a guideway located in the foundation of the press, by which means said windlass7 which is connected by a rope with the follower-lever, may be drawn away from the press-box to a certain extent, and by this movement partially lower the follower before the windlass is actually rotated.
Referring to the drawing, a is the press-box; b, the follower; c, the follower-rod or driver; d, the follower-lever hung on a cap-tie, e, that is secured crosswise to the standardsf. g is the cord that connects the lever d with the vertical windlass h. e' is the sliding bar in which the windlass is stepped, said bar being supported in staples c that are driven into the sills lof the pressframe.
By drawing out the bar i', through the application of horse-power, at the begin nin g ofthe pressing operation, the windlass is carried away from the press-box and the follower is lowered as rapidly as this movement is e'ected; Vhen the bar has been drawn out as far as practicable it should be fastened by means of a pin, m passed up through any one of the holes n in the sliding bar, and also through a hole made in the sill l for the purpose. The pressing operation can then be completed by the rotation ofthe windlass.
A counter-weight, o, is fastened to the outer end of the lever d for the purpose of drawing the bar i backward when the follower is to be raised.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The windlass h and bar t, arranged in connection with the cotton-press, to operate as shownand described.
JAMES TEMPLETON.
