MACHINE FOR DUMPING BARRELS AND LIKE CONTAINERS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 27, 1919.
Application filed August 22, 1918. Serial No. 250,922.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES D. GALLO- WAY, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a certain new and useful Machine for Dumping Barrels and like Containers, of which the following is a specification.
The principal objects of the present invention are to provide for lifting barrels or like containers and dumping their contents into a suitable receptacle, mixer or other device, without permitting of the escape of dust into the room or atmosphere from either the barrel or the receptacle into which its contents is dumped; and'to provide a machine for accomplishing the object mentioned which will be simple, efficient, come pact, reliable and easily operated by the attendant even in connection with barrels or containers of which the contents is comparatively heavy. 7
Other objects of the invention will appear from the following description which will be made in connection with the embodiment of the invention, selected from among other embodiments for illustration in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1, is a side view of a machine embodying features of the invention, showing the same generally in position for receiving a full barrel and for the removal of the empty barrel.
Fig. 2, is a front view of the machine with the parts in the position shown in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3, is an elevational view principally in section, showing the parts in position for dumping the barrel, and
Fig. 4, is a horizontal sectional view.
In the drawings 1 and 2, generally are cylindrical segments in overlapping relation and whereof one, 2, is fixed and constitutes a housing and whereof the other, 1, is a turnable barrel carrier and stops or closes the housing andis provided with an opening 3 and with means of which 4, is an example, for holding a barrel A in discharging relation to the opening 3. The barrel A with its top open is held up to the opening 3 through the intervention of a closed chute 5. When the barrel carrier 1, with the barrel A, held up to the opening 3, for example in the manner described, is turned right-handed through approximately 180 the opening 3 passes into the upper part of the housing,
shown at the right in Fig. 1, and is closed by the housing before the contents of the barrel commence to dump, and finally the barrel is brought into dumping position with the opening 3 in general alinement with the outlet 6 of the housing. The barrel carrier 3 is then turned left-handed into its initial position, shown in Fig. 1, when the empty barrel can be removed and another barrel of which the top-head is removed, applied to the carrier and dumped in a similar manner. In all working positions of the machine, the carrier 1 overlaps the housing 2, so that dust may not escape from the housing 2 or from the machine, device, bin or mixer with which the outlet 6 communicates. 7, is the base of the machine and 8 are a pair of standards rising from the base and in which the barrel carrier 1 is pivoted for partial rotation, as has been described. The barrel carrier 1 includes arms 9, of a pair of spiders, which are fast on the shaft 10 and which carry the rim of the carrier. A counterweight, is shown at 11. The housingand the carrier are in flanged relation, as shown at 12, and suitable packing 13, as of felt, is provided at appropriate places for preventing the escape of dust. Depending from the carrier under the chute there is an elevator 14, which constitutes a means not only for holding the barrel up to the chute but also for lifting the barrel into that position, the latter function being desirable in the case of heavy barrels or containers. The platform of this elevator is shown as provided with a guide 15, which may center the chime of a barrel, and the chute is provided with a projection 16 which operates as a guide for the top of the barrel. The elevator is raised and lowered by gearing 17 that may be operated by a handle 18, or by means of any suitable power device. Generally speaking, the gearing comprises a cross-shaft 19 which through the intervention of bevel gears 20, turns screws 21, the nuts 22 of which connect with hooks 23 which connect with uprights 24 that carry the elevator platform 14. There'is suitable gearing for turning the barrel carrier and it may be operated by a handle 25, or by any suitable power device. This gearing is shown to comprise a worm 26, actuating a worm-wheel 27, connected with the carrier.
Among the uses of the machine, reference may be made to its employment as a means for dumping or feeding chemicals to a hopper, bin, mixer or other device, which terial of which the dust should not be permitted 'to escape into the atmosphere or into a room, not only because such a proceeding is wasteful, but also because it is deleterious to the health of workmen and by the overlapping arrangement of the'described cylindrical segments, dust may not escape from the housing and therefore from the part with which the opening 6 communicates. The flanged arrangement of the cylindrical segments 1 and 2, and also the described packing assist in preventing the escape of dust. While the lifting function and the dust-proof function are in many instances desirable in combination, either of them may be used to advantage singly.
One way of operating the machine is to turn the barrel carrier into the position shown in Fig. 1 and to lower the elevator platform 14 so thatits upper surface is flush with the floor and the latter can be provided with a cavity for that purpose. A keg, barrel, or like container, canrthen be run on a truck and placed with its chime over the guide 15. During this operation the barrel carrier 1 may have been shifted or turned slightly or through afew degrees toward the right from the position shown in Fig; 1, so as to give clearance for getting the barrel conveniently onto the elevator platform, and for the removal of the head whenin position. The barrel carrier 1, in the circumstances mentioned is turned a little toward the left and the guide 16 clears the top of the keg in this operation and then the elevator is lifted as by the handle 18 until'the top of the barrel is up against a packing 28 at the inlet end of the chute 5. The carrier is then turned and the barrel dumped, and then returned with the empty barrel as has been described. To remove the empty barrel conveniently, the carrier may be stopped in .a position a few degrees toward the right from the position shown in Fig. 1, whereupon the elevator is lowered and the empty barrel removed;
It will be obvious to those skilled in the art to which the invention relates that modifications may be made in details of construction and arrangement without departing from the sirit of the invention, which is not confined to or limited by such matters or in any way other than theappended claims and the prior state of the art may require.
