corporation of Ohio Application December 26, 1933, Serial No. 703.923 21 Claims. -(c1. 9H0) This invention relates to aeration of liquids, and more particularly to the whipping of cream. It is the principal object of the invention to provide a very simple and effective method of pre- 5 paring whipped cream to produce predetermined characteristics in the finished whipped cream product.
It is a further object to provide a simple and eflicient apparatus for preparing whipped cream 10 to produce predetermined characteristics in the finished whipped cream product. I
It is a further object to provide apparatus for aerating and whipping of cream, and power driven' mechanism for stirring the cream during such 15 aeration, both the aerating means and the stirring means being under'the control of the operator.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent from the description, the accompanying 2o drawings, and the appended claims.

and I 40 Fig. 9 is a sectional view showing a detail of the construction and taken on the line 9-8 of Fig. 1.
Referring to the drawings which disclose a preferred embodiment of the invention, there is 45 shown a cream whipping device comprising preferably two units, the first a cream container III, and the second a base upon which the cream container is removably supported. The base II is provided with a top cover member |2 having 5 depending overhanging flanges l3 and a central annular raised portion H of the proper size to receive the depending annular supporting flange l of the container l0.
' Within the base H, which is preferably en- 55 closed by walls at and mounted upon casters 2|, there is positioned a source of motive power 22, such as an electric motor. There is also provided an air pump 23 for supplying air under suitable pressure for aerating and whipping the cream which preferably is of the rotary type so 5 that it canoperate at substantially the same speed as the motor to eliminate the necessity for a speed reducing mechanism for driving the pump. A stirring mechanism is also provided for stirring the cream during the whipping op- 10 eration and since it is desirable to operate the stirring mechanism at a controlled speed much slower than the usual motor speed, a speed reducing and speed changing mechanism 24 is also positioned within the base, and suitable driving connections are provided between the motor .22 and the air pump and speed reducing mechanism. As shown, this driving connection comprises a driving pulley 25 on the motor, a belt 26, and a driven pulley 21 on the shaft 28 of the speed reducing mechanism. On the sameshaft there is also mounted pulley 29 which drives the air pump through belt 30, and pulley 3|. 7
The speed reducing mechanism 24 is preferably a self-contained unit embodying change 25 speed gearing therein. As indicated, this unit comprises the driving shaft 28 to which is attached a worm 32 meshing with worm gear 33. The worm gear is fixed to countershaft 34 .which carries a large gear 35 and a small gear 36. Gear meshes with a cooperating gear 31, and gear 36 similarly meshes with cooperating gear 38, gears 31 and 38 being freely rotatable on shaft 39. Each gear 31 and 33 is provided with a clutch member 40 and 4| respectively and a sliding 35 clutch operating member 42 is arranged in the usual manner to cause selective driving engagement 'of one or the other gear train with the driven shaft 39. The gear train 36, 38 therefore provides a slow speed drive, while gear train 35, 4o 31 provides a higher speed drive. A control shift lever 44 provides for engaging one or the other gear train, and a handle member 45 is positioned conveniently for the operator, to enable the selection of a desired driving speed. The driven 45 shaft 39 extends upwardly and terminates in a driving socket 46, preferably having a non-circular socket 41 therein. The driving socket extends upwardly into a boss 48 provided within the upstanding section i4 of the cover. 50
The air pump 23, driven as above described, supplies air at a suitable pressure to sufflce for all i conditions under which the device is operated. An air conduit 50 leads from the-pump and preferably a pressure relief mechanism 5| is provided 5 in this line to avoid production of too high a pressure such as might damage the pump, or cause objectionable flexing in the aerating discs, to be hereinafter described, such as to distort the discs or cause excessive leakage. This pressure relief mechanism, as shown in Fig. 7, comprises a check valve 52 mounted within a casing 53 and is pressed toward its seat over the air passage 54 by means of a spring 55. Tension of the spring is adjustable by means of the adjusting screw 56. When the pressure exceeds that for which the spring has been set, the valve will rise and permit exhaust of the air through the ports 51.
The air conduit is formed with a plurality of coils 60 which are adapted to provide flexibility in the air line, and also provide for the condensation of any moisture which may be fortuitously present in the compressed air. A control valve Si is provided in the air line for the p rpose of regulating the pressure and the quantity of air delivered to the aerating device. This control valve comprises a valve chamber 62 and an extended valve operating arm 63, which is extended to the outside of the base structure and terminates in an operating handle 64 conveniently within the reach of the operator and adjacent the speed control lever 45, so that the operator can operate both controls quite readily as desired. Operation of the control handle 64 causes the by-passing of a portion of compressed air through an exhaust pipe 65 thereby reducing the quantity and pressure of the air to obtain the desired controlling efiect. Alternately, a throttling type valve may be used.
Air conduit communicates with the reducing valve, and is formed with a curved section 1! to provide desired flexibility and resiliency, and also to further condense any moisture present in the air, and also to provide for radiating heat caused by the compression of the air so that the air will be relativelycooler as it enters the cream. The conduit 10 terminates in an upstanding member 12 which passes through the cover section I 4, eccentrically of the center thereof. A spring 13 acting against a support 14 attached to the main' cover member i2, and cooperating with a flanged section 15 of member 12, tends to urge the member 12 upwardly, this upward motion being limited by engagement of flange 15 with the under side of cover M. The coil portion H of the air conduit has sufiicient resiliency to readily permit a desired springing of the conduit and a consequent upward and downward movement of the end member 12 of the conduit.
The container in carries a cooperating air conduit 80 which is preferably given an upward curved formation as indicated at 8|, so as to extend above the normal level of the liquid cream, thereby preventing any possibility of liquid passing from the container into the air pump. The air conduit 80 passes through the depending flange l5 of the cover and terminates in a downturned enlarged section 82. Mounted within this enlarged section are a plurality of resilient sealing members 83, such as a plurality of apertured rubber disks. These disks are adapted to cooperate with the end member 12 of the lower air conduit when the container is placed in operative position upon the base, to form a substantially air-tight seal, providing for the passage of the air from conduit 10 to the conduit 80 under pressure, while also providing for the ready removal from and assembly of the upper container upon the base.
lower member 12 is somewhat depressed from When the parts are in operative position as shown in Fig. 4, the' its uppermost position against the pressure oi. spring 13, and there is thus formed a substantial pressure tending to seal the member I2 against the rubber disks 83.
In order to assure the proper alignment of these two air conduits, the cover section I4 of the base is provided with an indexing groove 85, and the depending flange l5 of the container is provided with a cooperating indexing finger 86, the construction being such that the container can be assembled upon the base only in the proper angular relationship so that the air conduits are in registration.
Air conduit 80 communicates through an aperture 90 formed in a depending neck portion 9i of the base of the container.
An aerating structure 92 is positioned within the base of the container. This structure preferably comprises a series of metal disks of progressively decreasing diameter, mounted one upon another, and having small scores or grooves upon their adjacent flat faces which are adapted to divide up air passed through the plates from below, into a plurality of finely divided streams of bubbles capable of aerating or whipping the cream. If desired a structure such as disclosed in my copending application, Serial No. 681,972, filed July 24, 1933-, and assigned to the same assignee as this application, may be used. The bottom wall of the container is provided with a depression 94 within which the series of aerating disks is positioned. As shown the bottom of this depression is slightly dished or tapered downwardly and the lowermost of the aerating disks seats against this surface and is flexed downwardly to have its peripheral portion pulled tightly in sealing relationship against this surface, as shown particularly in Fig. 1. This downward .flexing of the aerating disks,- and the holding of the disks tightly in proper position with respect to each other during operation, is eifected by means of the central tubular shaft J00 which extends downwardly through the container and through the superposed disks, and has its lower end terminating in a threaded portion |0| which is threadedly engaged within the lower neck 9| of the container. If desired a peripheral sealing member, such as a suitable flexable ring, may be positioned between the periphery of the lower plate and the bottom of the depression, to provide a seal, either in lieu of the sealing resulting from the flexing of the lower disk against the downwardly dished surface-above referred to, or as supplementary thereto. As shown particularly in Fig. 1 the diameter of the depression above referred to is somewhat greater than the outside diameter of the lowest of the aerating disks 92, thus leaving a circular space within the depression and around the outside of the lowermost disk. -By means of this construction the aerating channels carried in the lower face of the lowest disk are available for the discharge of air therethrough, thus giving greater air capacity. Furthermore, air as thus discharged passes into the circular channel I04 and serves to' prevent cream or other material from collecting within that channel to thus prevent material from working down into a position where it would tend to leak between the aerating disk and the bottom of the container.
An enlarged collar I02 is formed on the tube overlying the series of disks, which provides for the application of suitable pressure thereto when the tube is screwed downwardly into the bottom of the container, thereby maintaining-the aerating disks in proper operative position and making an effective fluid seal. The tube terminates adjacent .the upper portion of the container and above the normal level of the cream, so that a sanitary construction is provided. The tube is also formed with extending pins I03 which provide a ready means for threading the tube into the base of the container.
A driving shaft I05 extends through the tube I00 and projects beyond the bottom of the tube, terminating in a non-circular shaft portion I06 which is adapted to have driving engagement with the upstanding socket 06 of the base member, also providing for the ready disassembly of the driving connection upon the removal of the container from the base. The shaft I05 extends upwardly and is attached in driving relation to yoke Illl. The yoke is supported upon the end of tube member I00 ,and is adapted to be rotated thereon by means of the driving shaft I05. The yoke carries an upper cross arm I08 which has a central section I09 suitably apertured for sliding engagement over the tube I00. Yoke I01 is provided with a circular extension I01 which serves as a guard between the rotating yoke and the stationary members I03. This section is also provided with elongated slots I I0 which provide for the passage therethrough of the members I03 when it is desired to remove the stirring device from the container; likewise this construction provides for raising the stirring mechanism from the container to slide it over the members I03, and thereafter by slightly turning the stirring mechanism, it will be supported upon the. members I03. The handle III attached to the yoke I 01 provides for this lifting movement.
The upper supporting arms I08 extend radially and are provided with bearings .I I2 for rotatably supporting a plurality of stirring frames II3. A 40 lower supporting arm I I4 is similarly formed with bearings I I5, the lower arm being carried in spaced relation with respect to the upper arm by members I I6. These members have a. dual function of supporting the lower arm and of providing a stirring action for the material adjacent the tube which otherwise might not be circulated. The lower supporting arm I I4 is centrally apertured to pass asound and be guided by the enlargement I02, and is also provided with slots, not shown, but similar in positioning and functioning to the slots H0 in the upper arm. The lower arm II4 passes directly over the aerating structure 92 and is preferably formed with beveled surface I N (Fig. 9) which exerts a plow-like action tending to prevent formation of air tunnels or fissures in this zone. The arrangement above described permits of lowering the stirring mechanism into proper position,'as above set out, for the stirring action. By lifting the stirring mechanism so that the slot I I0 60 in the member I08 passes upwardly above the pins I03 as above described, and slightly rotating the mechanism, it will be supported upon these pins for disengaging the stirring mechanism from its driving connections. When it is desired to strip adhering cream from the rotating members, the stirring mechanism may be lifted still further so that the corresponding slot in the member II4 will pass above the pins I03 whereupon slight angular rotation will bring the slot out of register with the member I03 so that the stirring mechanism will be supported in this elevated position and the cream may be readily stripped therefrom. As will be evident from the drawing in Fig. 1, the container is preferably formed with upwardly 75 diverging side walls. The stirring frames I I3 are so formed as to have a larger diameter at the top than at the bottom, and are so positioned within the container that their axis approximately bisects the angle formed by the wall of the container and its central vertical axis. As a'result therefore, the outer portion of the frame is substantially parallel with the periphery of the container, while the inner section is substantially parallel with the axis of the container so that practically the entire body of the cream is subjected to the stirring action. As will be apparent from the above, the frames I I3 are freely rotatable upon their axes, but are not positively driven.
The operation of the device is substantially as follows. A quantity of cream is placed within the container I0, which may not be in position upon the base. Although no air is immediately passed upwardly through the aerating structure, because of the character of the'passages, downward passage of the cream therethrough is substantially prevented. When the container is filled and in place in proper registering relation upon the base, both the air conection and the driving connection are established as above described. The aeration may then be started by the operation of the driving motor causing operation of the pump with consequent supplying ofair to the air chamber below the aerating structure, and passage therethrough to eifect whipping of the cream. The control member 64 is suitably adjusted to provide the desired rate of supply of air.
Either simultaneously, or subsequently, the I clutch member 45 can be engaged by the operator to cause driving engagement of the shaft I05 and consequent rotation of the stirring mechanism in the container. As a result of this rotation, the frames are caused to have a rotation about their own axes in such manner that a substantially uniform stirring action is provided throughout the container. This stirring action is effective to thoroughly break up or prevent the large bubble formation or the occurrence of fissures or air tunnels in the cream being whipped, so that in conjunction with the plow-like action of the members I I4, objectionable escape of air without proper whipping of the cream is avoided, and a finer grained whipped cream is obtained. The speed of operation of the stirring members may be selected as desired from no speed or very slow speed up to the maximum speed which will not deleteriously affect the material being aerated.
The whipping qualities of cream are known to vary materially with the butter fat content of the cream, a cream rich in butter fat whipping more easily than a cream poor in butter fat. And also it is desirable to produce cream having difierent characteristics, adapting it for different characters of use. It has been found that by a proper coordination of the rate of air supply to the cream, and the amount of stirring or mixing action produced therein; a wide range of physical characteristics can be provided in the whipped cream, from cream of widely varying butter fat content. Cream so low in butter fat that it could not be whipped by the ordinary processes can be effectively whipped with the present invention and furthermore can be made to have predetermined characteristics of large bulk and long lasting qualities. In certain cases, where it is primarily desirable tov use a relatively inexpensive low butter fat cream, and to produce a large volume of whipped cream therefrom, a reduced amount of stirring action, sufficient to prevent overflow of the container is employed. Under other circumstances, where a very fine grained whipped cream is desired, a more extended and/or a higher stirring action may be employed which serves to break down the larger formed bubbles and keep them of small size which results in a less bulky whipped cream, but one which will have much greater lasting or standing power.
Generally it is found that with a higher butter fat content, a smaller air supply should be used as the higher butter fat content makes the cream more viscous and less of the air is lost. Conversely, with a low butter fat cream, having less viscosity, it is desirable to supply the air at a greater rate, to oifset the losses occurring by escape of air through the cream.
The stirring action may occur simultaneously with or subsequent to the aerating action. Ordinarily it is desirable to first start the aerating action to produce a preliminary whipping effect, and then to begin the stirring action and to regulate the rate of such stirring action to produce the desired bulk and fineness characteristics in the finished whipped cream.
Upon the completion of the whipping operation, the entire stirring mechanism may be lifted from its operative position and supported upon the pins I03, thereby providing sufficient space at the side of the container to permit the removal of the whipped cream. It is usually undesirable to completely remove this stirring mechanism because considerable whipped cream clings to it. It may, however, be removed directly when desired for cleaning purposes. The device may also be used repeatedly to aerate successive batches of material without removing the stirring mechanism so that it does not contact any other material and a sanitary condition is maintained. Furthermore, the entire container together with the aerating disks can be cleaned and the disks separately washed and dried before reassembly.
While the methods herein described, and the forms of apparatus for carrying these methods into effect, constitute preferred embodiments of the invention, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to these precise methods and forms of apparatus, and that changes may be made in either without departing from the scope of the invention which is defined in the appended claims.
