No. 891,019. Specification of Letters Patent. Patented June 16, 1908.

Application filed October $2, 1907. Serial No. 398,611.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, Luia1 Verna, a citizen

of the United States, residing at Philadelphia

in the county of Philadelphia and State o

5 Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and

useful: Improvements in Drying-Rooms, of

which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to improvements in a

drying machine and particularly relates to a

machine for drying alimentary paste or

dough used in the manufacture of macaroni. |

The object of my invention is to construct

a drying machine in which the dough can be

quickly dried without causing the surface or |

crust of the dough to crack, this I accom- |

plish by constructing the drying machine so |

that the dough may be subjected to an at-

mospheric pressure which wil dry the dough |

uniformly without causing the surface to

crack; a further object of my invention is to |

provide means for causing the air in the dry- |

ing machine to circulate and also for admit- |

ting fgesh air to the same when desired ; these |

together with other novel features of con- |

struction of the parts of the machine, which |

will be more fully hereinafter described, con- ’

stitute my invention.

—— in bearings 18 and 19, carries the

said fan and is driven by the belt wheels 20,

or any other suitable means.

The fan box 16 extends to the bottom of

the drying machine, where the air from the

fan passes through the aperture 22 into the

drying chamber, which is practically air

tight, so that the air will be held under a

sufficient pressure to uniformly dry the

dough contained im the drawers or suspended

| upon tRe poles.

A stop-cock 23 is provided at the top of the

drying machine, which may be opened to re-

duce the air pressure in the drying chamber

when desired.

lators,

Other objects and advantages will be ap-

parent as the nature of the invention is bet-

ter disclosed, and it will be understood that

changes within the scope of the claim may

5 be resorted to without departing from the

spirit of the invention.

In the drawings forming a portion of this

specification, a in whick like numerals of

referenee indicate similar parts in the sev-

eral views, Figure 1 is a’ vertical section

through the house, Fig. 2 is a view taken

on-the line 2—2 of Fig. 1, Fig. 3 is a hori-

zontal section taken on the line 3—3 of Fig.

i, vig. 4 is a top plan view.

Referring now more particularly to the

drawings, there is shown a store house 1

which preferably consists of a front wall 2.

a rear wal) 3, and side walls 4. The said

walls are each formed from an outer sec-

tion 5 and an inner section 6, and as clearly

shown upon reference to the drawings, saw-

dust or other insulating material is placed

between the sections forming the said walls.

The walls 4 are each. provided with a door

ing 7 and a door. 8, the doors being

rovided and consists of

10 and 11 between which

vertically disposed slats or like elemente 27,

and a plurality of horizontally slats 90

28 are secured to the said slats 27, and are

disposed in spaced relation to each other as

clearly shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings.

The construction of the slats 27 and 28 is

such that air chambers 29 are formed be- 95

tween the walls of the house and the said

slate 28 and thus effects a thorough ventilag

tion. A series of cleats 80 are weeured to the -

walls 2 and 8, upon their’inner faces, and

are secured to the re 100

25 and to the walls 4 of the house as will be

geen upon reference to Figs. 1 and 2 of the

drawings, and these cleats are thus adapted

to —— a plurality of slatted platforms

82. It will be seen that by providing the 105

slatted platforms 32 and <a the same

in the manner shown a plurality of com-

partments or bins are provided for the re-

ception of potatoes or vegetables to be treated,

and access may be had to the said compart- 110

JOHN SCHMIDT AND HENRY SCHUTTERLE, or CHARDON, OHIO. —

APPARATUS FOR DEYING MACARONI AND LIKE BAKERY PRODUCTS.

1,010,809.

* Specification of Letters Patent.

-. Patented Dec. 5, 1911.

Application filed June 9, 1911. Serial No. 632,155.

To all whom 1t may concern:

Be it known that we, Jonn Scumuprt and

Hexry Scntrrerze, citizens of the United

States, residing at Chardon, in the county of

f Geauga pop foot of Ohio, have invented

certain new and useful Improvements in

Apparatus for Drying Macaroni and Like

Bakery Products, of which the following is

a specification.

10 is invention has reference to apparatus

for drying macaroni and like agg | prod-

ucts, and the invention consists in the con-

rts substan-

and particu-

struction and combination of

‘ tially as shown and descri

15 larly pointed out in the claims.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1

is a perspective view of the invention. Fig.

2 is a longitudinal sectional elevation there-

of substantially through the center. Fig. 3

20 is a longitudinal sectional plan view of the

invention. Fig. 4 is a cross sectional eleva-

tion through the heating chamber, and Fig.

5 is a cross sectional view through the drying

chamber showing the blower in the rear.

25 The apparatus as thus shown is designed

especially for drying macaroni, but is not

necessarily limited to this single use or

product.

As shown the invention comprises an in-

80 closure which is say about nine feet in length

by about seven feet in width and about six

feet in height, over all. and within this outer

wall there are several distinct compartme

"_ In the present views we show straps hr

85 bands 5 about the said wall as be

needed to hold the same firmly together, and

the interior of the apparatus is variously

sub-divided into }chambers and compart-

j ments as the. work to be done may re-

quire. Thus, the front and main portion of

’ apparatus comprises eve ee chamber

__ Which is divided somewhat ‘arbitrarily into

beeompartments longitudinally, the base

we find it ——— to provide a series

of racks R upon which the macaroni can be

hung or suspended, while for other pur-

Ser we may use a series of wire screen pans

. These pans may be arranged in tiers one

above the other and adapted to be bodily

drawn out and replaced if preferred. Either

or both kinds of trucks can be used, or their

equivalent, according to kind or nature of

stock to be dried. A transverse wall W sep-

arates the said compartments for the heater

chamber, and the steam coils or pipes E for .

the air for the dried chamber are

located in the said heater chamber. Con-

trol of the steam flowing through these coils

or pipes is by valves 2 and 3, or their equiva-

lent, outside the main wall of the apparatus.

A fan or blower B is located in a suitable

opening in the wall W, and said blower is

driven by shaft 4 from any suitable source of

‘power, said shaft being supported in suit-

able bearings 5 and 6 and extending through

the rear wall of the apparatus for. power

connections.

Admission of air to the heating chamber

and exhaust is by means of suitable doors

or dampers dis here and there as the

necessary ventilation may suggest. For ex-

ample, the bottom rear door 7 may be raised

more or less and sustained in raised posi-

tion by counterweighted chain 8, or its

equivalent, and in that’case exit or exhaust

would be say by door or doors 9 in the top

of the apparatus, the circulation of air be-

ing through exhaust fan or blower B and

through the drier rag: B mapeweg beneath

the false top 10. But if for any reason it

be desirable to merely circulate the air

within the apparatus under increasing heat

conditions the tive inlets and outlets

will be closed and the door or damper 12

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, Jonn Scumupr and

Hexry Sontrrertz, citizens of the United

States, residing at Chardon, in the county of

Geauga and Btate of Ohio, have invented

certain new and useful Improvements in

Apparatus for Drying Macaroni and Like

Babery. Products, of which the following is

8 ification.

is invention has reference to apparatus

for drying macaroni and like i prod-

ucts, and the invention consists in the con-

struction and combination of parts substan-

tially as shown and descri and particu-

larly pointed out in the claims.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1

is a perspective view of the invention. Fig.

2 is a longitudinal sectional elevation there-

of substantially through the center. Fig. 3

20 is a longitudinal sectional plan view of the

invention. F ig. 4 is a cross sectional eleva-

tion through the heating chamber, and Fig.

5 is a cross sectional view through the drying

chamber showing the blower in the rear.

The apparatus as thus shown is designed

especially for drying macaroni, but is not

necessarily limited to this single use or

product. -

As shown the invention oe an in-

eet in length

by about seven feet in width and about six

feet in height, over all. and within this outer

"Wall there are several distinct compartments.

In the present views we show straps or

$5 bands 4 about the said wall as may be

needed to hold the same firmly fogether, and

the interior of the apparatus is variously

sub-divided: into chambers and compart-

ments as the work to be done may re-

uire. Thus, the front and main portion of

the apparatus comprises the drying chamber

whick is divided somewhat arbitrarily into

two compartments longitudinally, the base

sill S constituting part of the main frame

45 being on this line of this division, and each

compartment is entered at the front by a

door D of a size large enough te run one of

the trucks T into and out of the “spmpart-

ment. Said doors are hinged to s ng out-

wardly and the trucks are on suitable

wheels or casters andvare run upon the floor

of the apparatus without tracks in this in-

The said trucks

we find it advan to provide a series

of racks R upon which the macaroni can be

hung or suspended, while for other pur-

gg hw may use a séries of wire screen pans

- These pans may be arranged in tiers one

above the other and adapted to be bodily

drawn out and replaced if preferred. Either

or both kinds of trucks can be used, or their

equivalent, according to kind or nature of

stock to be dried. A transverse wall W sep-

arates the said compartments for the heater

chamber, and the steam coils or pipes E for

——- the air for the dried Gambier are

located in the said heater chamber. Con-

trol of the steam flowing through these coils

or pipes is by valves 2 and 8, or their equiva-

lent, outside the main wall of the ap us.

A fan or blower B is located in a suitable

opening in the wall W, and said blower is

‘driven by shaft 4 from any suitable source of

power, said shaft being supported in suit-

able bearings 5 and 6 and extending through

the rear wall of the apparatus for power

connections.

Admission of air to the heating chamber

and exhaust is by means of suitable doors

or dampers dis here and there as the

necessary ventilation may suggest. For ex-

ample, the bottom rear door 7 may

more or less and sustained in raised posi-

tion by counterweighted chain 8, or its

equivalent, and in that case exit or exhaust

would be say by door or doors 9 in the top

of the apparatus, the circulation of air be-

ing through exhaust fan or blower B and

ay e drier compartments beneath

‘the false top 10. But if for any reason it

be — to —, circulate the a

within the apparatus under increasing heat

conditions the vat ctive inlets and outlets

will be closed and the door or damper 12

in the top 10 be opened, say about as seen

in Fig. 2, more or less. This extends across

over the top of the heating chamber, and

with the blower in operation the air will be

caused to travel in a circuit through the ap-

paratus and the increasing heat thereof will

take care of any further moisture.

Sometimes it occurs that the condition of

the material on the racks or in the re-

quires more surface moisture than it pos-

sesses inherently, and in such cases we em-

ploy a steam spray 15 which more or less

Saturates the air and meets the i

mefits. This spraying head is connected by

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, Josian K. PRovTOR

_and JoHN H. KNow gs, both of the city and

’ gourty of Philadelphia and State of Penn-

oa have invented an Improvement in

eco moma of which the following is

fication.

ur invention relates to drying-machines;

and it conaista of certain improvements, all

10 of which are fully set forth in the following

* specification, and shown in the accompany-

ing drawings, which form a part thereof.

ore particularly this invention relates to

that class of drying apparatus in which the

15 air is circulated through or among the mate-

rial to be dried by means of suitable air-cir-

cu'ating devices. Our apparatus is not con-

fined to the drying of any particular kind of

material, but is equally suited to any kind of

20 materials or goods which can be distributed

. through the drying-room so as to provide

numerous vertical air-spaces soméwhat even-

‘ly distributed.

The object of this invention is to arrange

§ the parts of the’ drying apparatus (herein-

after for convenience of expression called a

“drier”) in a novel manner, so that the air

weed in drying shall be heated outside of the

rooms or chambers containing the materials

Gow item is the Hickox Album called for as a physical

hibit but Exhibits 26-A, 26-B, 26-C, 26-D, 26-E, 26-F, and

, are excerpts from that album.)

Derenpants’ Exursrt No. 26-A

re Visitors of the Oklahoma State Poultry show for 1911,

when in Muskogee, had an opportunity to visit Muskogee’s

590,000 egg incubator. The hatchery is itself a building, and

“the attendants and visitors do not look into the incubator—

enter.it. It is a low, brick building about twenty feet

2, such as could conveniently house about eight of

largest size old-style incubators, which would give a

pacity for hatching about 3,000 eggs.

Under this. roof can be hatched 60,000 eggs at one time,

hough accommodations for 30,000 are now all that are

fed. The full 60,000 capacity can be ready for work,

yer, upon a few days’ notice. The large capacity is

by superimposing twenty trays, one above the

r, 80 that 5000 eggs fill a single chamber measuring

bout 2 by 4 by 4 feet. Figures 5 and 7 show how these

‘s : mbers are constructed arid how the trays are set in.

a the hatching begins, alternate trays are fitted with

high h sides which will require two compartments for the

gal hatching out of the twenty trays incubated in one

wempartment. Figure 4 shows the attendant removing the

“ ed chicks from one of the hatching trays.

sane big idea in the hatching business is to get cheap

; and space economy, such as this mammoth ineuba-

thy slong with the low cost of equipment, will tend

i. 1412] to not only produce cheap ey but more

and stronger ones.

EJt ig.a very simple idea, that of placing the trays one

ove the other, and like all other simple ideas it has been

i before, but failed to work on account of the fact that

hard to heat up such a large mass of eggs and main-

‘fhe temperature constant at all points. This was over-

», however, by the use of an electrical centrifugal fan,

mich drives a blast of warm air through the mass of eggs

49-36

1122

from top of bottom and heats the entire mass of eggs (or

cools it) at the will of the operator. The amount of mois.

ture in the air is governed by the moisture introduced at

the fan; as is shown in Figure 2.

Upon entering the hatchery we are firat taken into a

smal] ante room, as shown in Figure 1. The natural gas

line which furnishes the gas for heat is shown on the wall

and passes through a mercurial float valve, which is auto-

matically controlled by the thermostat of home-made con-

struction. This thermostat is set to operate at a desired

temperature so as to close off the gas when the room be-

comes too hot. There are two other such arrangements

on the same line, one of which is shown on figure 6. These

are merely to check each other, so as to insure the gas being -

shut off when the temperature rises, and make a positive

prevention against ruining many valuable eggs. The man

in the picture is Mr. Hastings, inventor and builder of the

hatchery. This is the process of testing the eggs for fer-

tility.

The ante room contains a compartment, shown in figure ©

2, in which is placed the ventilating fan, the life of the in-

[fol. 1413] cubator. Outside air can’ be admitted to this

compartment whenever necessary. This also shows the

pan‘ of water underneath the fan, to keep the moisture m

the air at the right amount. This fan is supplied by cen-

tral station service, and the owner of the incubator keeps

a duplicate on hand at all times to immediately put in place

should a break-down occur. As a stoppage of ventilation

would make it necessary to throw away all the eggs in the

incubator and start over ogain, it will be seen that the de

pendability of the central station service is the biggest point

of the whole process.

From here we enter the main incubator, in which the

temperature is always kept at 100 degrees. The attendant

will be seen in figure 3 pulling out trays of eggs for turm

ing, which is déne three times a day by hand. In this run

way the first experiments in forcing chicks by aid of @

tungsten lamp were carried on. By a special time swi

light was furnished the baby chicks for eight hours, a 6

watt tungsten lamp being used, and then their light wa

shut off.for eight hours. 3

It has often been said that nature is not everywhere p@ z

fect, and in this case it is found possible for the bemme

1128

chicks to live three electric days in two ordinary sunshine

days, as the chick can fill its craw very easily in the eight

hours of light, so its digestive organs perform their func-
