rares ArnNfr FICE@ STRAINER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 385,295, dated June 26, 1888.
Application filed April 19, 1887. Renewed June 4.1888. Serial No. 275,924. (Nomodcl.)
To @ZZ whom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, ARNOLD Boss, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of rCook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvementv in Strainers,of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a convenient and etlcient means for separating the pulp of apples, pumpkins, and other edibles from the cores, seeds,`and skins, and the straining of other articles-such as paint and starch, preparing beef tea, the.; and it consists of a machine having a semi-cylindrical perforated sieve and a lever with brush attached, which -is moved by hand over the surface of the sieve, thereby forcing the articles to be strained through the meshes of the sieve, the construction and arrangement of the parts being hereinafter more fully described. I attain these objects by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a vertical side View of the entire machine; Fig. 2, a vertical front View of the sieve and sieve-frame; Fig. 3, a detailed view of the lever and brush used;4 Fig. 4, a detached plan view of the sieve-plate of my machine; Fig. 5, a side View of the sieve-frame and the metallic bands closed. Fig. 6 is a similar view with the bands open, showing the means for holding the sieve-plate; also how other sieves, of larger meshes are inserted in the sieve-frame.
Similar letters refer to similar parts th roughout the several views.
a is the receiving pan or box,which is quadrilateral in shape and made of any desired material, provided with handles a a and a lip or nozzle, c, at one corner for'pouring off the strained articles.
B B, b, and b'2 b2 constitute the frame-work of the machine.
b is a iiange or projection that extends over on all sides and rests upon the rim a3 of the receiving-pan a. On the upper surface and near the outer edges of said flange are two upright bearings, b2 b2, which support the shaft d. On the under part of said flange b are two semicylindrical upright inclosing-Walls, B B. On the periphery of said walls are inserted pins b4, which hold vthe screenplate when in position. Directly under the ange b', upon one end of the walls B B, are hinged two metallic bands, ff, which are bent to fit the periphery ofsaid walls, and, when in position, hold the screen-plate to its place by means of thumbscrews ff.
b is the perforated sieve orscreen-plate, provided With holes b5 along two of its outer edges, which lit over the pins lfof thcinclosing-walls B. The screcnplate is thus readily detached from the machine for the purpose of cleaning or replacing it with another ofdift'erent mesh.
The lever c is an iron or steel rod furnished at one end with a handle, c', and divided in two parts at the otherend, and provided with flanges c2 c2 on each part. Vithin said tlanges, and fastened by-screws or otherwise secured, is the brush e, which is made of steel wire or very stit'f bristles, and is formed to fit snugly the entire space between the inelosing-walls. At or about the center of thelever c and forming a part thereof is the shaft d, which stands at right angles from an upright line of said lever, and extends through the machine from side to side to the sockets b3 I):i ofthe bearings b2. The shaft d is kept from moving -out of place sidewise by the liangcs Z2 d2.
The operation of my device is as follows: The lever c is first taken out, and the material to be strained is introduced into the machine in as large a charge as can be readily worked without spilling over the edges of the inclos ing-walls. The lever c is then placed in position, and the brush e is rubbed'against the material by the pressure of the hand on the lever-handled, the motion being an oscillating one lengthwise of the machine, the same asindicated by the dotted lines g/ 1/ of Fig. l, andin a short time the material will all be passed through the screen into the receiving-pan a, leaving, in the ease of fruits, the seeds and skins perfectly clean, which are then dumped out and the machine is ready for use again.
The use my device is mostly adapted foris the pulverizing or reducing of vegetables to a mashed condition, such as split peas, apples, tomatoes, strained boiled meats, and other articles designed for the tablein astrained form. These and other articles have heretofore been done by straining through a colander orlarge sieve, and were pressed through the meshes ot the same by the hand or a wooden blo-ck.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is-- vce 1. The ccmbnation of lever @providedwth c, provided with shaft d, and the brush @with shaft', d, and the brush e, with the holdngthe screen b, the holding-frame, and the re- 1o frame consisting of sidewalls, B, flange b', and cevng-pan a, having lip a2. bearing b2, and the screen b.
2. The combination of the detachable screen ARNOLD BOSS' b with the holding-frameprovided with pins Vituesses: if, bands j", and the screws f. H. LOUIS CLARK,
3. The combination of the oscillating lever C. C. CLARK.
