Title: Improvements in Apparatus for Bottling Liquids.
Inventor: RILEY FREDERIC GEORGE
IPC: B67C3/06
Filed: 1911-05-31
Granted: 1912-03-07
Abstract: 13,070. Riley, F. G. May 31. Bottling.-Relates to the bottling-machine described in Specifications 15,434/04, 11,504/07, and 11,504A/07, in which bottles are revolved intermittently around the filling-head, and particularly to the liquid-controlling mechanism, which consists of a flat-disk stationary valve. In the form described in Specification 11,504A/07, the disk valve is made in two parts, covering two of the liquid and all the air ports respectively. In all the machines, each filling-nozzle is provided with a hand-operated shut-off device so that it may be closed off in the event of a bottle bursting. As, in a large machine, some time is required to reach the shut-off devices, the present invention consists in means for instantly closing all the ports by giving the otherwise stationary disk valve a partial turning movement. In operation, the machine is stopped, the disk valve turned, and the particular shut-off device closed; then the machine is restarted and the disk valve brought back to its original position. The disk valve is made in two parts 15, 18, Fig. 1, covering respectively the whole of the air and liquid ports. The inlet tube 10 kept in position by a spring 11 forms a spindle for the valves, being connected to the counter pressure valve 15, which is connected to, and drives, the valve 18. The valve 18 is kept in place by a central spindle 19, and the valves are connected by parts 20 on the valve 18 engaging between lugs 26 on the valve 15. The upper end of the tube 10 passes upwards through a stay 22 to which is pivoted a lever 23 which engages, by a pin and roller 24, a slot 25 formed in a projecting portion of the tube or spindle 10. To turn the compound disk valve, the lever 23 is thrown over.
