PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
A Driving Belt for Centrifugal Milk Separators and similar High
Speed Machines.
I, ANTHON CHRISTENSEN WORGOD of Townsend Cottage, Dursley, in the
County of Gloucester, Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this inventiou
to be as follows:
Driving belts heretofore used for centrifugal milk separators and similar high
speed machines have the defect of being so stiff or unpliable as to require to be in
great tension in order to transmit the power, and this tension involves great
friction, loss of power and undue wear. Moreover belts made of cotton or other
vegetable fibre are hygroscopic and vary under the influence of climatic variations.
Now according to my invention, and as the result of close consideration of the
requirements of the case and of many experiments, I make an endless belt woven
two shaft or four shaft of camel hair or similar hair. This belt at all events for a
width of three inches and under possesses all the good qualities needed for the
purpose in view, that is to say, great pliability, so that it may run rather slack, great
resistance against stretching, and equality under varying climatic circumstances such
as heat, cold, dampness and dryness. The belt is by preference impregnated on both
sides with a composition made of boiled oil, resin and gold size or other drier.
Dated this 6th day of December 1893.
