" UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM H. HARMAN, OF MILLERSTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA.
COMBINED CIDER PRESS AND MILL.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters 'Patent No. 235,430, dated December 14, 1880.
Application filed July 22, 1880. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM H. HARMAN, of Millerstown, in the county of Perry and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Combined Oider Press and ill; and I do hereby declare the following tobe a full, clear, and exact de-' scription of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains the top of the bars or levers which are used in pressing the pomace, whereby the mill is always over the top of the crib, so that as fast as the pomace is ground it falls directly into the crib, and thus saves the time and trouble ofconveying the pomaoe from where it is ground to the crib to be pressed.
It further consists in forming openings through the cog-wheel which drives the grinding-cylinder in the mill, so that the arms of the cog-wheel,between which the pomace must pass as it falls into the crib, will catch the larger pieces of apple and break them up, all of which will be more fully described herein- 7 after.
The object of my invention is to provide a cider press and mill combined, which can be readily moved from one place to another, wherever it is most convenient to operate it, and in which the parts are so arranged that the pomace will never have to be handled except to throw it away out of the crib after it has been pressed.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my invention. Fig. 2 is a "ertical cross-section of the same, taken through the mill. Fig. 3 is an inverted view of the cog-wheel placed in the bottom of the mill.
A represents the. bed of the cider-press, which is mounted upon wheels and provided with a tongue, so that horses or other animals can be attached thereto, and thus move the press from one part of the country to another,
or from one place to another, whenever it is desired to operate it. Upon the top of this bed is placed the usual base-plate B, upon which the crib O is placed, and which plate has the usual flanges around its edges to catch the cider. Upon opposite sides of this crib and bed-plate are the two standards D, which have a series of holes through their upper ends, and down over the top of which and the .crib'are passed the two beams or levers E,
which are operated by means of the two screws F, and by means of which beams the juice is expressed from the pomace. Upon the top of these two beams, just over the top of the crib, there is placed the mill G. This mill is secured upon the top of the plate H.
The inner surface of the hopper or body of the mill is made corrugated, as shown, and in the center of this hopper is placed the conical grinder J which is also made corrugated. This grinder is placed upon the vertical shaft L, which has secured to its lower end the large cog-wheel N. This cog-wheel is driven by the small bevel-gear O on the end of the drivingshat't P. On the outer end of this driving shaft is placed a pulley, Q, or other suitable device for driving the mill.
The cogwheel N, instead of being made small and solid, in the usual manner, is here made larger than the bottom opening through the hopper, and has a number of holes made through it, through which the pomace must fall after having been ground by the grinder. As this wheel N revolves, the arms which connect the rim and hub together bear up against a plate, X, just above them, and act as shears to cut all the larger pieces of apple in two. To make these arms more effective in cutting they are made slightly concave on top.
The mill is secured upon the top of the levers or beams, so that as fast as the pomace is ground it falls directly into the crib, and thus prevents the necessity of having to handle the pomace at any time until after the juice has been pressed out.
Heretofore the mill has always been placed to one side of the crib, and hence after the apples had been ground it was always necessary to move the pomace into the crib or to move the crib to where it is to be pressed.
By securing the mill directly over the crib IOO and having the mill to move with the beams or levers, the mill is always in position and always ready for work. This arrangement saves much time and labor. 5 When the apples are to be ground into pomace, the wheels are blocked in any suitable manner, and then the belt is placed over the pulley on the end of the driving-shaft and the power communicated to the beltfrom the horsepower or any other suitable motor.
After the crib has been ground full of pomace,a suitable block, R, is placed upon its top, and then by working the two screws the beams are moved downward, so as to force this block down upon the pomace with any desired degree of force.
Having thus described my invention, I claim- 1. In acider-press, the combination of the 20 two beams E, supported wholly upon the two screws F, guides D, and mill G, secured to I the beams, so as to always be directly over the crib, substantially as shown.
2. The cog-wheel N, located in the bottom of the mill and having a series of holes made 25 through it, in combination with the plate X, substantially as set forth.
3. The combination of the hopper having a corrugated inner surface, a conical grinder having a corrugated surface, a central shaft 0 having the grinder secured to its upper end and a perforated cog-wheel to its lower end,
a plate, X, and beveled pinion and drivingshaft, substantially as specified.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I 5 have hereunto set my hand this 12th day of July, 1880.
WILLIAM H. HARMAN.
