Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 3, 19 1?.
Application filed February 6, 1915. Serial No. 6,406.
To all rv/1.0m it 177 my concern Be it known that l, ALnun'r J MoRLocK, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, county of Kings, State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Separator-Presses; and I do hereby declare the following to be a true, clear, and exact description thereof.
My invention relates to an apparatus for separating liquid from solid matter in treat ing garbage, packing house refuse and the like, the liquid being pressed out of the solid matter and the solid material subsequently removed from the press in an expeditious manner.
My invention consists in the construction. and. combination of parts more particularly described and claimed.
Referring to the drawings forming a part of this specification;
Figure 1., isalongitudinal section through the apparatus.
Fig. 2., is a sectional view on an enlarged scale, of that portion of the pressing cylinder showing the means for draining the liquid during the pressing operation.
i i g. 3., is a section of the pressing mecha- .nism similar to that shown in Fig. 1 with the pressing ram or plunger in the position prior to the pressing operation.
Fig. 4., is a section on line 4.-4 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 5., is a section on line 5 5 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 6., is a detail of the end of the press ing cylinder, with the cylinder head in its detached position.
Tn the drawings like reference characters indicate like parts in the several views.
A is the pressing mechanism, B the base consisting as shown of a channel bar, although any other suitable construction may be used and C is the feed tank in which the material to be operated on is collected and from which it is fed to the pressing mechanism. D is a cylinder supported by brackets 11 and 12 which are secured by bolts 13 to the base B and provided with a feed opening 1 1. Surrounding the cylinder is asleeve 15 similar in shape to a T coupling, the flange 16 of which is provided with screw threads 1'7. The opening 18 of the sleeve is concentric of the opening 16 in the cylinder 10. The sleeve is held in place between the twosupporting brackets 11 and 12. In the wall at one end of the cylinder 10 are perforations 19 and the inner surface of this part of the cylinder is reamed out at 20 to form a seat in which fits a cylindrical perforated screen 21., the ends of which may he provided with outturned flange 22 which closely to the outer edge of the cylinder. Surrounding this end of the cylinder are rings 23 and 24- spaced apart a distance equal to the widthof the perforation in the cylinder 10. These rings support a cylinder or sleeve 25 which form together with the cylinder 10 and sleeve 25 an annular passage way or chamber 26. A drain pipe 27 is connected to the sleeve 25 and communicates with the chamber 26 and leads to the re ceiving tank not shown. Rods 28 are connected to the outer ring 23. Slidably mounted on these rods is the cylinder head 29 which is provided with openings 30 through which the rods project. The cylinder head is reduced in thickness or recessed on the inher face, leaving an annular rim 31. Secured to the rim is a perforated plate or screen 32 which with the reduced portion of the head forms a recess or chamber 83. 341- is a pipe which is connected to the head and communicates with said chamber. To the outer end of thispipe may be secured a flexible pipe which leads to a receiving tank not shown. is a cross bar which is carried by the rods or bolts 28. Threaded through this cross bar is a. bolt 36, the inner end of which takes against a block 37 which block bears against the head 29 and securely holds the head in place against the end of the cylinder. A short section of pipe 10 is threaded at one end to the flange 16 of the T shaped sleeve 15. To the outer end of this pipe is secured the lower end of a. funnel shaped connection 4:1. Secured to the other end of this connection is the tank C provided with a removable cover 0. A ram or plunger fits snugly within the cylinder 10 and may be operated therein by any suitable means. As illustrated in the drawing, the means for operating the plunger consists of a lever 16, one end of which is pivoted at 17 to a bracket 418 secured to the base B. This bracket is provided with a series of openings 49, so that the point of pivot of the lever may be adjusted or varied. This lever is pivotally connected to the plunger by a bolt 50, the
lever being provided at this connection by a slot 51 to permit the lever to be moved in a manner well known. The free end of the lever may be supported by a bracket or guide rest 52 secured to the base B. This lever may be operated by hand, pneumatic,
hydraulic or any other power, or the piston may be connected directly with the hydraulic operating or any other suitable means not shown.
The operation of the device is as follows y Assuming that the piston is withdrawn to the position in Fig. 3. and the cover 0 is removed from the tank C. The material to be treatechgarbage for instance, is throwirinto the tank C when it will pass down through the funnel shaped connection ll through the short pipe 40 through the openings in the sleeve'15 and cylinder 10 and into the said cylinderu Power is thenapplied to force the piston inwardly and the material ahead of the pistonis' forced toward the perforated endof the cylinder. This movement compresses the material and forces the liquid carried by the material through the screensand the perforations in the cylinder into the recesses or passage ways 26 and 33 where it flows out through the pipes '27 and 34 into'the receiving" tank not shown. The piston is now withdrawn,which operation permits more of the garbage to fall into the piston when the piston isfo rced-inwardly again and the second part of material ahead of the piston is compressed.
This operation is repeated until the perforated end of the cylinder 10 is full of the material to be compressed, which material is pressed until the solid matter is substantially freed of the liquid. hen this is done, the cylinder head is released by turning the bolt 36 in the proper direction and removing the block whereupon the head 29 is slid on the bolts 28 to the position shown in Fig. 6. The plunger now is forced completely inward when it will drive 01' force the compressed material outof the end of the cylinder. The cylinder head 29 is replaced and the pressing operation is repeated.
VVhile' I have shown certainfeatures of my invention in the accompanying drawings, it is'to be understood that said drawings are merely illustrative, and that I am not conpartitions for each of said chambers and,
forming walls for the cylinder, substantially as described.
2. In a device of the class described, a cylinder, a magazine secured thereto and communicatingtherewith, a piston mounted in the cylinder 'tlirouglione end thereof, chambers at the other end of the cylinder, communicatingtherewith by a series of perforations, a removable head, and adjustable means for holding tliehead to the cylinder and means for reciprocating the piston or plunger. 1
3: In an apparatus of the class described, a press cylinder having drainage means, a reciprocating imperforate ram, a head gate for said cylinder, said gate having drainage means, and means for reciprocatin said ram insaid cylinder.
at. In an apparatus of the class described, a cylinder having drainage means, a head gate removably secured to said cylinder, means forholding the head gate in line with the cylinder both in its operative and inoperative positions, said head gate having a,
cavity therein, a screen supported by said head gate and extending over said cavity and a ram adapted to reciprocate in said cylinder.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand at the borough of'Manhat-tan, city and State of New York, this fifth day of February, 1915;
ALBERT J. MORLOGK.
