The central portion of the lower run of the belt is impinged between the paper strand 25 and the walls of the upper ends of the rollers 31. The pin 47 is provided with eccentric pintles 50 which are locked by'a set screw 51 after the belt is adjusted in parallel relation with the upper ends on the rollers. The shaft ;40" has an arm 52 secured thereon having a stud 53 in the'end thereof which is engaged within the yoked end of a bell crank 54 fulcrumed on a bracket 55 secured to the cross member on the upper end of the frame 17. The depending arm 56 of the bell crank is engaged with a pair of spaced lugs 57 (Fig. 8) mounted on the outer "wall of a shuttle 58 which slides in channel irons 59 and 60 mounted in the upper and lower edges of an opening 61 in the incinerator (Fig. 3). A door 62 is mounted for lateral sliding movement in the wall of the incinerator above the bowl to arrest the propagation of heat from 'the firing chamber of the incinerator. The side walls of the shuttle are apertured (Fig. 8) with an opening 58a to accommodate the entry of the door and impingement of the paper strand against the door jamb 63 upon completion of the inward movement of the door. The door is reciprocated by a lever 64 pivotally mounted adjacent its lower end on a cover plate 65 on the incinerator. The lever is drilled with a clearance hole therein for a cap screw 66 mounted in the door and movable through an arcuate slot 67 in the cover plate. The door is normally held in its closed position by a spring 68 connected to a bracket 69 on the cover plate and "arod 70 adjacent the top of the lever 64. The rod fprotrudes outwardly beyond the bracket in order to support the spring in a biased position and thus effectuate an inward tensioned strain on the lever. The outer end of the rod 70 is provided with a lug 38 (Fig. 3) disposed to engage a switch 39 upon an inward axial movement of the rod. The switch is electrically connected to the blower, fuel valve, and ignition device on the incinerator and initiates the combustion cycle thereof when the switch is closed. If desired, a solenoid 105 (Fig. 9) may be attached to the rod 70 for the retraction of the door 62, the solenoid being controlled by lines 106 and 107 coupled with a switch 108 actuated by a lug 109 on the shuttle. The lever 41, when oscillated, eflects the reciprocation of the door by an arm 71 attached to the shaft 40 and engaged with a cam plate 72 afiiXed to the upper end of the lever 64. The cam plate is fabricated from sheet metal bent in substantially U-shaped form, in vertical section, with the inner edge of the forward face thereof inclined upwardly and inwardly to a point adjacent the center of the plate. The inclined edge of the plate defines a cam 73 having a throw slightly greater than the width of the shuttle 58 so the door will clear the shuttle upon the simultaneous reciprocative movement of the door and shuttle. The upper portion of the forward face of the cam plate is inclined rearwardly so that the arm 71 will escape the cam 73 at the top of iits arcuate movement, andthe spring 68 will effect the inward movement of the lever 64, thus moving the cam plate into position for engagement with the opposed edge 74 of the plate. The edge 74 of the plate 72 is inclined downwardly and outwardly to a point slightly below the peak of the cam 73 where an inset notch, defining a shoulder 75, intercepts the inclined face thereof and provides a stop for the arm 71 to prevent reverse of movement of the lever 41 by the operator. The lever 41 is urged counterclockwise, towards an upright position, by a spiral spring 76 anchored at one end to the shaft 40, and at its other end to the face of the frame 17. Full rotative movement of the shaft is arrested by a cam 77 afiixed to the shaft and designed for engagement of the crest thereof with the upper face of the frame 17. The lower run of the belt 49 is encased by a shield 78 supported on the lower face of the bell crank 34. The shield is formed with lateral ears 79 thereon for guiding the upper edges of the paper strand 25 after discharge thereof from the trough in the guide plate 21.
Both the bell cranks 33 and 34 are formed with integral upwardly and outwardly directed arms 81 (Fig. 7), having openings in the outer ends thereof for the reception of diametrically reduced threaded end portions of bolts 82. The bolts are threaded in the upper frame cross member and secured to the arms 81 by nuts 83 on the reduced ends of the bolt. Adjustment of the bolts 82 facilitates the rocking movement of the bell cranks about their fulcrums on the rod 18, in order to align the belt in parallel relation with the upper ends of the rollers 31. The frame upper cross member is further provided with a pair of brackets 85 for the support of a sheave wheel 86 engaged with the belt 49. The bracket is slidably mounted on the frame cross member to vary the tension of the belt and is locked in place by screws 84.
As illustrated in Figs. 3 and 5, the bowl 10 may be readily attached or removed from the incinerator 13 through the provision of a pair of horizontal arms 87 aflixed to the bowl and formed with depending hooks 88 in the outer ends thereof engageable with pins 89 in spaced ears 90 secured to the face of the incinerator and the cover plate 65. The cover 11 is also mounted for ready assembly upon the bowl by engagement of the subtended flange 23 thereon with a plurality of upwardly directed spaced lugs 91 secured to the inner wall of the bowl '(Fig. 2). The frame 17 may be elevated and sustained in a horizontal position by a bar 92 when a new roll of paper 25 is mounted in the brackets 22.
The incinerator 13, shown in Figs. 2 and 5, comprises a prismoidal metal housing 93, lined with fire clay 94, and provided with a drawer 95 adjacent the base thereof. The drawer contains a shallow bowl 96 for the reception of the ash residue from the burntfolded strand of paper and the fecal material thereon, and a steel screen or grid 97 is mounted on the top of the bowl to support the material that may fall thereon during combustion. The combustion chamber of the incinerator is provided with a transversely disposed arcuate baffle plate 98 arranged in tangential relation with the shuttle 58 and rearward the nozzle on the fuel supply line so the flame therefrom will be directed against the paper strip as it is discharged from the shuttle. The base of, the bafiie plate 98 is spaced from the floor of the combustion chamber so the flame will be directed thereunder and over the face of the bowl 96. The incinerator, togetherv with the blower 99 and fuel control units 100 therefor (Fig. 2) are enclosed in a sheet metal housing 101 (Fig. 1). The housing is provided with a door 102 having louvers 103 in the base thereof, and a screen grid 104 is mounted in the top of the housing to afford ventilation of the assembly. The fuel is combined with air from the blower to form a vaporized mixture which is delivered through a nozzle 105 in the side wall of the incinerator 13. The fuel mixture is supplied with auxiliary air in requisite volume to support combustion by the louvers 103 (Fig. 1) in the base of the door 102. V
With the apparatus adjusted in its operative posltion,
as illustrated in Fig. l, the mechanism for conveying the folded strip of paper from the feed rollers to the incinerator comprises the engagement of the upper edge of'the folded paper with the belt 49, the engagement of the remaining portion of the strip with the faces of the rollers 31 and the consequent propulsion thereof while opening for folding a strand of paper from said roll into a U section for the retention of fecal matter, a pair of vertical rotative rollers at the'end of said trough engaged with said folded U section of paper and fecal matter, selectively actuatable means for rotating said rollers and pulling said U section of paper and fecal matter through it is supported in the shuttle 58 which is disposed with the open end thereof contiguous the discharge opening between the rolls 31. The movement of the shuttle is initiated by depression of the hand lever 41 (Fig. 3) which swings the arm 56 of the bell crank 54 rearwardly and advances the opposed open edge of the shuttle to a point within the incinerator. The depression of the lever simultaneously effects the transaxial movement of the door 62 as the lever 71 engages the cam face 73 which retracts the door 62 from the opening 58 in the shuttle and the opening 61 in the incinerator. The door is actuated inward by the spring 68 which holds the paper against the door jamb 63 until the door is retracted by the cam plate 72,. and the operative cycle of the door is repeated by further oscillative movement of. the lever 41. The return movement of the shuttle is effected by the spring 76. The structure of the shuttle and mode of operation thereof prevents untoward sagging or downward deflection of the looped paper strand during the movement thereof into the incinerator, and also eliminates the production of lateral tortuous folds in the paper and consequent wadding thereof in the throat of the incinerator.
The support of the roll of paper 25 on the base of the frame 17, and the position of the paper guide plate 21 relative thereto, not only prevents kinking and twisting of the paper strand as it is folded in the trough of the guide plate, but also accommodates the ready renewal of the paper roll when the frame is supported in an elevated position.
Although the foregoing description is necessarily of a detailed character, in order that the invention may be completely set forth, it is to be understood that the specific terminology is not intended to be restrictive or confining, and that various rearrangements of parts and modifications of detail may be resorted to without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention as herein claimed.
