Definitions

  • Apparatus are known in which the hats or other articles to be treated are immersed in a suitable bath for washing, sizing, or dyeing, said bath flowing in a stationary perforated receptacle.
  • These apparatus generally comprise a propeller for causing the dyeing or other bath current to enter and to leave the perforated receptacle at two diiferent points thereof.
  • the propeller has a low speed, and a relatively small power of suction, so that it is by no means capable of aifording a good and useful result, as thelatter depends upon the degree of suction of the bath through the hats or other articles. For instance a perfect effect is obtained by compelling the dye to completely pass through the felt, that is, to color itthroughout its whole thickness.
  • each hat 'or other'article which provides for example for the uniformity of the dyeing, is thus not assured in an absolute manner. If after the displacement of the hats which takes place at the moment of the reversal of motion of the propeller, the hats occupy such a position that a part of the perforate wall is not covered therewith, the bath current passes almost exclusively through this uncovered part of the wall and thus produces -no useful effect. Moreover the perforate Wall which is used is only one-half of the whole wall.
  • the present invention has for its object a process for the treatment of hats or other articles by a bath for washing, sizing, dyeing or other, permitting to obviate the aforesaid drawbacks.
  • This process is chiefly remarkable in this that itconsists in subjecting said bath to flow during one operation always in the same direction and in causing a relative motion between a preferably perforated receptacle containing the articles to be treated and the direction of said bath, whereby the regions through which the bath enters and leaves said receptacle are displaced on the surface of the latter.
  • the invention also relates to an apparatus for the application of the said process, this apparatus being chiefly remarkable in this that it comprises in combination, a preferably perforated receptacle containing the articles to be treated, means for causing the bath current to flow through said receptacle and means for causing a relative transverse motion of said receptacle with respect to 5V the direction of said bath current.
  • the bath is delivered into the receptacle or other perforated receptacle through a portion of its perforated wall and is sucked through another portion of this wall, the surface of this second portion being preferably larger than that of the inlet portion.
  • each hat enters the current individually and the layer of hats through which the suction is produced is made uniform constant and automatic.
  • the chief part of the surface of the perforated wall is used for the suction, which pro- 30 depicts the really useful effect.
  • the capacity of suction and the yield of the pump are much greater than those of a propeller.
  • Figure 1 is a vertical longitudinal section of an apparatus according to the invention, in which the pump conduits are subjected to a continuous movement of rotation, the section being taken on line of Figure 2.
  • Figure 2 is a plan view thereof with parts broken away.
  • Figure 3 is a section of Figure 2 on line 3-3.
  • the apparatus comprises a cylindrical receptacle 4
  • the upper cylindrical chamber contains the articles to be dyed.
  • the lower conical chamber contains a diametrical hollow piece or conduit or pan 44 whose upper wall is open according to a rectangular slot 45 ( Figure 2), being diametrically situated in the receptacle 4
  • This aperture 45 is framed by a flat flange 46 which makes contact, with the least possible play, with the lower face of the perforated bottom 43.
  • the conduit 44 has a circular opening 41, in which rotates the wheel of the helico-centrifugal pump 48.
  • the two lateral walls of the piece 42 have the usual form ( Figure 2) of the spiral chambers of centrifugal'pumps, and uniformly distribute, in the rectangular slot 45 the bath being set in motion by the wheel 48.
  • the hollow piece or pan 44 rests on a ring 49.
  • This ring 49 is secured by arms 50 to the hub 5
  • the lower wall 44 of conduit 44 is perforated and leaves a passage for pieces 49, 50, 5
  • extends out of the conical receptacle 42 through a stuffing-box 52.
  • is concentric and secured to a steel piece 55 having openings 55 affording access to the stuffing-box 53.
  • This piece 55 is slidably keyed, at its lower part, to the hollow hub 51 of a toothed wheel 58 and rests upon a threaded ring 59 which is screwed on the hub 51 and which permits of adjusting its height and in consequence of causing the flat flanges 46 of the piece 44 to make contact, with a slight play, with the lower face of the perforated bottom 43.
  • the toothed wheel 58 meshes with a worm 60.
  • This worm 59 is driven, by a second toothed wheel 6
  • the shaft 54 traverses the hub 51 in which it is guided by two ball bearings 65-55 and by the thrust bearing 61.
  • a bevel gear wheel 68 On the lower end of the shaft 54 is fixed a bevel gear wheel 68, meshing with a second bevel gear wheel 59 mounted on the horizontal shaft 1.
  • This shaft it is driven by the pulley H which receives the action of a transmission gear or of a motor, not shown.
  • a small pulley 12 fixed on the shaft 10 communicates the movement to the pulley 64 by means of a belt 13.
  • the aforesaid parts are supported by and contained in a frame 14, which supports the conical receptacle 42.
  • the operation is the following.
  • the shaft 13 drives, by means of the wheels 69 and 68, the pump wheel 48, and by the transmission 12'
  • the bath is thus sucked in the cylindrical receptacle by the two segments (the and def and is expelled through the diametrical slot 45 acdf ( Figure 2) in the direction of the arrows as of Figure 3.
  • These two segments abc and def form the orifice of the suction conduit, this latter being formed by the receptacle 42.
  • the delivery conduit 44 is rotated and the bath caused to flow in receptacle 4
  • the articles to be dyed which are driven by the current of the bath, thus come against the two aforesaid segments and the suction obliges the bath to traverse them.
  • the slow rotation of the diametrical slot acdf brings the'delivery orifices progressively and successively under each of these articles and obliges each of them at this moment to leave the bottom, to float freely and individually in the bath, and as they are drawn along by the current which passes preferably through the regions of suction which are the least provided with articles to be treated, they are uniformly distributed over the parts of the perforated wall through which the suction is taking place at this moment.
  • An apparatus analogous to the one above described but not comprising a stuffing-box might be constructed by suspending above the receptacle 4
  • An apparatus for the treatment of hats and like articles by means of a bath consisting of a stationary receptacle for said articles, delivery means causing said bath to flow during one operation always in the same direction, guiding means causing said loath to circulate within the receptacle and pass through said articles, and other means causing the position of the guiding means to vary axially with respect to said stationary receptacle.
  • An apparatus for the treatment of hats and like articles by a bath comprising, in combination a stationary receptacle having a perforated bottom adapted to contain said articles, delivery means for said bath causing it to flow through said bottom always in the same direction, and means for varying the position of said delivery means with respect to the receptacle.
  • An apparatus for the treatment of hats and like articles by a bath comprising, in combination a stationary receptacle with perforated bottom adapted to contain the articles to be treated, a pump for delivering the bath current through the bottom of said receptacle, guiding means on said pump, said pump always causing the bath to circulate in said guiding means in the same direction, and means for varying the position of the guiding means of said pump with respect to the receptacle.
  • An apparatus for the treatment of hats and like articles by a bath comprising a pump adapted to always operate in one and the same direction diametrically elongated aperture in contact with said perforated wall, and driving means operatively connected with said conduits for rotation.
