o ALL WHOM 1r MAY concssu:
Be it known that I, PHILIP SCHWEIKHART, oi the city of Buffalo, in the county of Erie, and State of New York, (nssignor to DANIEL SGHWEIKHART, of Eden, in the'countyand State aforesaid,) have invented a certain new and improved Beer-Cooler; and I do hereby declare'that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, inavhiclr- Figure I is a longitudinal vertical sectionv Figure 11 is an end sectional elevation.
The nature of this invention consists, first, in the construction of a beer-cooler having a chamber filled with ice, and another through which the beer or other liquid to be cooled is passed in any convenient manner, in combination with a fan-blower or other equivalent mechanical device, by means of which a current of air may be forced through the ice-chamber, whereit is cooled, and then through the liquid; second, in the construction and use of a number of perforated troughs, over and through which the beer or other liquid passes in a manner to present the most cooling surface that can be obtained to the air with which it comes in contact; third, in the construction of a bccr-cooler in which an ascending current-of cold air is brought in contact with the descending beer or other liquid in a manner to cool the liquor in its downward passage; fourth, the combination with a beer-cooler of one or more sieves for straining the liquor before it is discharged upon the troughs above-mentioned.
Letters of like name and kind refer to like parts in each of the figures. v g

- Operation.
The chamber B is first filled with ice and the cover 6 closed; then the warm beer or other liquor to be cooled is allowed to run freely through the sieves G G, where it isthoroughly strained, and onto the first and upper plate or trough F- As soon as this trough is filled to a level with the edge of the flange j the liquor will runoverin a thin shectaud fill-the next trough until that is'also running over the edge, as described, so as to fill the next below and so on until the liquid reaches the bottom. But, independent of this thin and flat stream of liquid fromone trough to the next below, a number of line streams are produced through the perforations of the plates. In this manner the descending liquid is out up and divided in a great number of parts andfine streamsm hich again inter-mingle upon each trough and are re -divided, thereby-presenting all parts of theliquid to the air cqntainedin the chamber. The moy'einentof the liquid is indicated in the drawings by red-dotted lines and arrows. As soon as the liquid has begun its descent through the chamber 0 the fan-blower is revolved by auyconvenient mechanicalfmeans, which-produces a current of air from the bottom of the-chamber B,
through the ice, and through the opening at the top of the partition a In its passage through the ice the air has become considerably cooled, and is now forced down through the air-flue D into the chamber 0, entering at the bottom, as shown by the black arrows, Fig. I. The exhaust-opening being at the top of the chamber, the eold air is forced upwardly back and forth between the plates until it escapes through the said opening g. In ascentthe air comes in contact with not only the surface of the liquid contained'in each trough,vbut also with the thin sheets-and numerous fine streams descending from each troughto the next one below.- The liquor is thereby thoroughly cooled; and when it has-arrived at the bottom of-the chamber, it may be drawn ofi through the opening I i'na perfectly cool condition. 'By decreasing or increasing the blast of air the temperature of liquids,
when. passed through this cooler, may be reduced in any desired degree, making it the most convenient and -efiicient device for the various purposesfor which it may be used.
What-I claim asmy invention',-' and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is--- 1Q Abeer-cooler havin-g an ice-box, ]3, a chamber, C, containing the liquid, and anair flue, D, and fanhloiyer, E,-(o'r equivalentg) constructed,-arranged, and operating substantially as herein described.
J 2. Coolingibeer or other liquids by dividing the same into a large number of fine s treamsjand forcing an ascendingcurrent of cold air through the descending liquid, in the'manner and for the purpose substantially as hereindescribed,a I
3. The perforated plates or troughs -F, having flanges ff arranged in the manner substantially as herein described. v
4. The sieve or sieves G G], in combination. with the chamber O, for the purpose and substantially as described.
