CLARENCE E. IBILLINGS, OF NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGN'OR TO THE NEW HAVEN SAND BLAST COMPANY, OF NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT, A CORPORATION OF CONNECTICUT.
SAND-BLAST APPARATUS.
Application filed March 26, 1923. Serial No. 627,693.
My invention relates to sand blast apparatus and particularly to a sand blast tumbling barrel, the object of my invention being to provide an improved device of the general character shown in the Dreisbach Patent No. 9l8,270, but adapted to hold castings of larger size and to operate upon the same from nozzles arranged at the ends of the barrel instead of inside the tumbling chamber. A further object of my invention is to clean the sand by means of a counter-blast device arranged to cooperate with the automatic sand recovery scoops in the ends of the barrel.
A sand blast machine of the same general type to which the present invention relates described and claimed in the copending joint tI'PPllCEliZlOX'l of George G. Fatscher and the present applicant filed concurrently herewith and serially nun'ibered. 627,680. Some of the features claimed in this copending application are disclosed in one form in the present case.
In the accompanying drawings- Fig. 1 is a broken front elevation of a tumbling barrel in which my invention is illustratively embodied in one form;
Fig. 2 a broken end elevation of the same;
Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic vertical section of a drum end in which my dust-separating mechanismis arranged; I
Fig. 4 is a section on the line 44, Fig. 3; and
Fig.1. 5 is a partial section on the line 5-5, Fig.
The barrel in the form here shown is supported on rollers mounted in the frame 11 and driven in unison by any suitable mechanism, such as a train of gears 12 operated from the belt wheel 13. The barrel comprises an outer shell 14 and within the same and spaced there from a perforated cylindrical screen 15 into which the castings are introduced through a door 16. The opposite ends 17 of the drum are solid and rotate therewith. being provided however with axial openings 18 through which the blast nozzles 19 project the blast sand, grit or the like. Heads 20 of greater diameter than the body of the barrel rotate therewithand are provided on their inner faces with scoops 21 for the automatic recovery of the sand in a manner similar to that described in the Dreisbach patent above referred to. These scoops lift the sand during the rotation of the barrel and deliver to a hopper carried by the stationary head 23 at each end of thebarrel. A valve 24, can trolled exteriorly by the valve handle 25 permits the escape of the sand from the hopper 22 into the mixing chamber 26 of the blast nozzle 19. The air or steam under pressure is conducted to the mixing chamber through a flexible pipe 27.
In order to deflect the sand from the body of the tumbling barrel to the recovery heads, at each end thereof, I arrange a series of guide plates or ribs 28 between the perforated screen 15 and the shell 14 sothat the sand falling through the former is deflected by the ribs 28, as the barrel rotates, to the heads 20 at the opposite ends of the barrel. These ribs 28 may be secured in position by any suitable means, such as bolts 29 passing through flanges 30 on the ribs and through both the shell 14 and the screen 15. An aperture 31 in the plate 17 adjacent the end of each rib 28, permits the discharge of the sand as it slides down the latter into the head 20. I have shown a head at each end of the barrel in the present construction, but obviously it would be possible to carry the ribs across the length of the barrel and deflcctthe sand to one end alone. V
In the construction. shown in Figsl and 2, I have shown no means for separating the dust from the sand save the ordinary draw-oil dust wipe 32 which opens into the plate 23 at each end of the apparatus. The sand may be automatically cleaned of dust however by the counter-blast arrangement shown in Figs. 3, 4 and 5. In this modification I have arranged a supplemental hopper funnel 33 through which the sand lifted by the scoops 34 is discharged again within the area of the head 20. The sand travelling down this hopper funnel is counterblastediby the exhaust passing up to the dust pipe 32 with which the lower leg of the fnnnet 33 communicates. The sand is then lifted by the scoops 35 and discharged to the hopper 36 from which it is led to the blast nozzle 19 in the usual manner'. To secure these results the head is divided by a peripheral partition 37 of sutlicient width to prevent the sand, discharged into the head from the ribs 28, from passing to the opposite side of the partition. The scoops 3 1 are of such angle that as the barrel rotate. the sand lifted thereby discharges to the tunnel hopper 33, the latter being on the opposite side of the vertical axis of the barrel from the hopper 86. The clean sand discharged through the lower leg of he hopper 33 drops on the opposite or outer side of the partition 37 and is there li'lted automatically by the scoops 35. The latter are so shaped that they carry their lead to a point above the hop per 36 before they discharge. A convenient construction oil the scoops to this end is shown in Fig. 3, in which the scoops are provided with a supporting ledge 38 at their inner ends.
As a matter of convenience, the stationary plate 23 for each of the heads 20 may be swung upon supporting bracket 41 pivoted at 42 to one oi the uprights of the :l'raine 11. A section 10 of the exhaust pipe 32 is rigid with the plate 28 and swings open with the latter, making a lap joint 43 with the main exhaust pipe when the end closure shut. A latching bar 39 is carried by the plate and provided with a locking bolt l-l which is screwed down in a socket 15 carried by a frame element at the front of the machine, when the end plate 23 closed.
The operation of the barrel is readily understood. After the barrel has been brought to a position in which the charging door 16 is readily accessible, the door is removed by loosening its bolts and the castings to be cleaned are introduced within the screen barrel 15. The door is then closed and fastened and the apparatus set in motion. As the ljlllf lll sand. or grit misses through the screen 1!) and tells upon the shell. 14, it is delivered by the ribs 28 to the lower portions of the lmad 20 at each end. of: the barrel. In the construction shown in Fig. 1 the scoops E31 lift the sand automatically and drop it into the hopper 22 from which it discharges to the blast nozzle 19 in such quantity as may be determined by the extent to which the valve 24: is opened by the handle 25.
In the modified. construction of Pi 3 to 5 inclusive the sand is first lifted by the scoops 34 and discharged to the tunnel hopper 33 through the lower leg of which passes the counter-blast exhaust into the dust pipe The clean sand drops to the scoops and lifted by them to the hopper 36 whence it discharges to the nozzles 19 in a manner similar to that just (,lCSCIllJOClTl OT the construction shown in 1 and 2.
Should it be necessary to obtain access to the nozzle or other mechanism within the head 20, it is possible to do so by loosening the locking bolt 4 1 and swinging open the end plate Ho. The extentto which the latter may be opened is oil course limited by the length of the flexible blast connection 27.
Various modifications of construction which embody my invention will readily suggest themselves to those skilled in the art, without departing from what I claim as my in vention.
