the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to apparatus for filtering and drawing off, (without froth),
beer and other gaseous liquids. In apparatus according to my invention: -
1. The filtering layers act in a vertical direction.
2. The changing and filling in of the filtering layers is performed in a horizontal
position.
3. Air and liquid are drawn off from the apparatus by separate passages.
4. The formation of froth in the apparatus is prevented by an opposing pressure
upon the filtrate.
5. There is a device which enables the liquid to be drawn off without froth.
6. There is another device which enables the dregs in the apparatus to be
automatically drawn off in a filtered condition.
7. At convenient situations are glazed apertures which allow of the operation of the
apparatus to be constantly supervised.
One arrangement of apparatus according to my invention is as follows:-A
filtering drum pivotally supported by means of two journals in a portable frame
contains three chambers divided by two filters the two outer chambers receiving the
non-filtered liquid, whilst the filtrate collects in the central chamber at each side of which
is one of the filters.
Each filter consists of one or more layers of suitable material, and each filter
is provided at its outer surfaces with sieves."
In order to insert or to remove the filter the drum is moved about 90° from
its vertical position; its position will then be horizontal.
Each filter is firmly pressed between the two sieves by means of a cover in such
manner that the filtering material will not be displaced when the drum is in a vertical
position.
The beer or other liquid to be filtered is supplied through a pipe or flexible tube
having a cock, a "lantern" and two pipes branching from the bottom of the same,

page_text: and which pipes convey the liquid to be filtered through inlet unions into the
two chambers of the filter drum.
The above mentioned "lantern" is arranged upon the frame in a somewhat elevated
position relatively to the filter-drum, and serves, together with its accessory devices,
to automatically draw off the residue of the filtering apparatus in a filtered condition
and in a quiet flow. It comprises a metallic lower portion to which the pipe
connections are attached, a metallic upper portion with an air-discharging cock and
pressure gauge, and an intermediate glass cylinder. It is also furnished with a valve
for shutting off air; such valve may be a rubber ball (whose seat is at the lower part
of the lantern"), and which can be raised from its seat from outside by means of a
spindle passing through a stuffing box. A flexible tube is connected to the outlet union
of the air discharging cock at the upper part of the "lantern." A pipe leads from the
interior of the "lantern" by means of two branch pipes to two cocks arranged at
the upper part of the filter chambers. Such pipe has a cock at a point between
the lantern and the branch pipes. The operation of this device will be described
below.
"
The filtered liquid leaves the central chamber of the filter drum by an outlet at its
lower part, and passes through tubes or passages up into a pipe arranged within
a froth-preventing device formed as follows:-At the upper part of the pipe just
referred to is fixed a funnel-shaped dish whose edge is provided with peculiarly bent
portions. The outer casing is of downwardly tapering shape and is closed at the top
by a cover. On the latter is fixed another glass "lantern" having a pressure gauge
and an air discharging cock. The interior of this lantern" is in communication
with the interior of the froth-preventing device. A flexible pipe is connected to the
outlet union of the air-discharging cock just referred to, and unites with the flexible
pipe coming from the upper portion of the "lantern" first referred to.
Liquid that collects in the bottom portion of the froth-preventing device is
discharged by means of two pipes that are at first carried upwards, and are provided
with stop-cocks. The mouth-pieces of these pipes are contracted, so that the internal
sectional area at the outlet is smaller than the interior sectional area of the inlet to the
apparatus, this arrangement ensuring a certain opposing pressure in the central
chamber of the filter drum
At the highest point of such central chamber is an air discharging cock that
communicates by means of a pipe or flexible tube with the interior of the "lantern"
arranged above the froth-preventing device. The apparatus operates in the
following manner :-
The beer or other liquid is forced through the inlet pipe and its cock into the
lantern first referred to either by the pressure in the eask or reservoir itself, (in the
case of liquids such as lager beer), or by means of suction and force pumps in the case
of liquids which are kept in open casks. The rubber ball in the "lantern" is caused
to rise from its seat, and allows the liquid to proceed through the two flexible tubes
and their unions into the two filtering chambers, the air being at the same time driven
out through the cocks at the upper part of the filter drum and through the branch
pipes into the glass lantern"whence it is discharged. When the air has been
discharged from the supply conduit and the outer chambers of the filter drum, the
cock of the first "lantern" is closed, so that the filtering chambers have double
communication with that "lantern," and thus enable a uniform pressure to exist in such
chambers, the supply conduit, and the lantern, whilst air that may leak in, or any air
remaining after "snifting" can pass through the pipes to the lantern whence it can he
discharged, when desired, by opening the cock. This method of discharging the air
from the filtering chambers forms an important feature of this invention, and obviates
disadvantages attending methods adopted with filtering apparatus heretofore employed
in which air passes through the filtering layers, and escapes from the apparatus in
the same way as the filtered liquid.
The cock in the outlet union and the cock above the filiering drum remain closed
for the present, so that an opposing pressure is produced in the central chamber, and
the liquid entering the other chambers rises only vertically and drives out the air

page_text: through the cocks connected therewith. But when the chambers are filled with liquid
above the filtering drum is slightly opened and then the cock in the outlet union is
also opened, so that the liquid alone, since there is no air left in the filtering chambers
passes sideways through the whole surface of each of the two filters into the central
chamber.
The opposing pressure in the central chamber which still exists in consequence of the
slight opening of the cock above it prevents the foaming or frothing of the liquid
passing from the filters. The filtered liquid first fills the outlet union and the
horizontal portion of the pipe connected to it, rises in the central chamber and in the
vertical portion of the pipe just referred to, and also in the pipe in the centre of
the froth-preventing device. Thus, on the one hand, air from the central chamber is
driven out through the air cock above it (and which is situated at the highest point)
and through the pipe connected to it, and, on the other hand, the air in the froth-
preventing device and the pipes in connection with it is driven into the "lantern"
above such device whence it escapes, when the cock is opened, by the flexible tubes in
connection therewith. The cock is only opened after a considerable interval, so that
the opposing pressure which has existed from the beginning in the central chamber
of the filtering drum and which prevents the frothing of the beer passing from the
filtering layers, is maintained. It will thus be seen that the air is discharged
independently from each separate chamber of the apparatus and by a passage quite
separate from the path of the liquid.
When the apparatus is filled for the first time, the pressure produced in the central
chamber is so small that slight frothing can hardly be prevented at first.
But if it be desired to prevent such first frothing the central chamber and the
filtering chambers must be placed from the beginning under pressure, so that the
liquid Howing into the said chambers must drive the compressed air in an upward
direction, and the liquid passing through the filtering layers into the central chamber
is also effected by the action of a sufficient opposing pressure.
The filtered liquid ascending in the pipe of the froth preventing device flows finally
over the peculiarly bent portions of the funnel and onio the conical walls of the outer
casing.
The edge of the funnel extends close up to the said conical walls so that the frothing
of the liquid as it overflows from the funnel is prevented.
The liquid flows quietly down, enters at the bottom of the device into outlet pipes,
and leaves the apparatus through the contracted mouthpieces hereinbefore mentioned.
As a result of this contraction of the mouthpieces, and of the fact that the outlet pipes
are carried up to about the height of the highest part of the central chamber the
opposing pressure. acting upon the filtered liquid in such central chamber and which
prevents the frothing of the liquid issuing from the filtering layers, is maintained
without interruption.
Since this pressure acts also upon the contents of the froth-preventing device,
frothing is also prevented in this device, and the liquid flows quietly in and out of the
froth-preventer. As long as the filtering apparatus is to remain in operation, the cock
at the lower part of the first mentioned" lantern" must be closed shortly before each
cask becomes empty, so that when the cask becomes empty the compressed air presses
the ball upon its seat and thereby cuts off the entrance to the pipes leading to the
filter chambers, so that entrance of compressed air into the apparatus is efficiently
prevented.
As soon as another cask is placed in communication with the apparatus, the entering
air is allowed to escape by the cock at the upper part of the " lantern," that cock is
closed as soon as liquid enters the lantern and its cock is opened again. If
the rubber ball should fail to raise itself from its seat, it is raised by means of a
spindle.
The above described arrangement of apparatus allows of constant supervision as to
whether the liquid in the central chamber is under sufficient pressure.
Should this pressure not be sufficient, froth will be visible in the glass lantern.
This frothing can be readily prevented by diminishing the internal sectional area of

page_text: the liquid discharging outlet by partially closing the outlet cocks. By this means an
increased opposing pressure is produced serving to prevent bubbles and the formation
of froth.
Since the sectional area of the outlet, as already mentioned, is smaller than the
sectional area of the inlet, the result is to ensure a constant opposing pressure in the
central chamber.
This is of great practical value as the correct operation of the apparatus is thus
rendered independent of the intelligence and attention of the operator. As will be
evident as the central chamber is filled with a column of liquid under pressure, and as
the liquid issuing from the two filtering surfaces enters direct into this column of liquid,
not only is the escape of carbonic acid gas prevented, but the freed gases will re-unite
completely with the liquid by means of the
pressure.
It can be seen from the glass "lantern," as soon as the liquid is under sufficient
pressure, that the bubbles, which are continually arising from the filtered liquid, are
not converted into froth.
When the apparatus is to be quite emptied-for instance, with the object of changing
the filtering layers-a time should be chosen when a cask has become empty. In this
case, the cock at the lower part of the first "lantern" remains open, and the cock
above the filtering-drum closed. As soon as the cask is empty and the supply of liquid
ceases, the rubber ball falls upon its seat, and thus closes the pipe, so that the com-
pressed air (the cock at the lower part of the "lantern" being open, and the cocks at
the upper sides of the filtering chamber being also open) enters through the pipe in
the lantern" and its branches into the filtering chambers, forces the liquor in a quiet
and uniform manner through the filtering layers, and from the top to the bottom, so
that, the liquid remaining in the filtering drum leaves the drum in a filtered state, and
flows quietly through the outlet. When the drum is empty, the cock in the outlet
union is closed, and the cock above the drum opened, so that the compressed air enters
into the glass lantern," acts upon the liquid in the froth-preventing device, and forces
the liquid through the outlet pipes. There remains thus only a small quantity of
filtered liquid in the pipes between the outlet from the drum and the froth-preventing
device which cannot be driven off by the compressed air, but must be drawn off by
means of special discharge cocks.
Instead of arranging two filters within the filtering drum, the number can be
increased as desired.
The arrangement may also be modified in such manner that only one entrance
chamber is provided for the liquid to he filtered.

page_text: I, HEINRICH STUCKHEIM of Mannheim, Germany, Manufacturer, do hereby declare
the nature of this invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be
particularly described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
This invention relates to apparatus for filtering and drawing off (without froth)
beer and other gaseous liquids.
In apparatus according to my invention
1. The formation of froth in the apparatus is prevented by an opposing pressure
upon the filtrate.
2. There is a device which enables the liquid to be drawn off without froth.
3. There is another device which enables the dregs in the apparatus to be auto-
matically drawn off in a filtered condition.
4. Ai convenient situations are glazed apertures which allow of the complete
discharge of the air from the apparatus when the latter is started, and also of the
operation of the apparatus to be constantly supervised.
Referring to the annexed sheets of drawings:
Fig. 1 shews in side elevation apparatus according to this invention.
Fig. 2 shews the same in plan.
Figs. 3 and 4 in two end views and
Fig. 5 in transverse vertical section through the filtering drum.
A modified apparatus is shown in Fig. 6 in side elevation, in
Fig. 7 in plan and in
Figs. 8 and 9 in end views.
Fig. 10 is a vertical section through the filtering drum.
Fig. 11 is a vertical section through the froth preventing device.
Figs. 12 and 13 shew in section two positions of the cock c.
The filtering drum T is pivotably supported by means of two journals Z in a
portable frame. It contains three chambers divided by two filters F, the two outer
chambers A (fig. 5) receiving the non-filtered liquid, whilst the filtrate collects in the
central chamber B, at each side of which is one of the filters F.
Each filter consists of one or more layers of suitable material and each Slter is
provided at its outer surfaces with sieves.
In order to insert or to remove the filter the drum T is moved about ninety degrees
from its vertical position; its position will then be horizontal.
Each filter F is firmly pressed between the two sieves by means of a cover D', in
such manner that the filtering material will not sag when the drum is in a vertical
position.
The beer or other liquid to be filtered is supplied through a pipe or flexible tube E
having a cock, a "lantern" G in an elevated position and two pipes ff branching from
the bottom of the same, and which pipes convey the liquid to be filtered. through
inlet unions (fig. 5) into the two chambers of the filter drum T. The above
mentioned lantern G is arranged upon the frame in a somewhat elevated position

page_text: relatively to the filter drum, and serves, together with its accessory devices, to draw
off the residue from the filtering apparatus in a filtered condition and in a quiet flow.
It comprises a metallic lower portion to which the pipe connections are attached, a
metallic upper portion with an air discharging cock and pressure guage, and an
intermediate glass cylinder fixed in an air tight manner. It is also furnished with a
valve for shutting off air such valve may be a rubber ball (whose seat is at the lower
part of the lantern") and which can be raised from its seat from outside by means
of a spindle s passing through a stuffing box. A pipe leads from the interior of
the "lantern" by means of two branch pipes 11 to two cocks d d (fig. 5) arranged at
the upper part of the filter chambers A A. Such a pipe has a cock e at a point
between the lantern" and the branch pipes. This cock is a threeway cock
(figs. 12 and 13) and its casing is provided with a union opening outwards so that
the entrance chambers A can be freed from air when desired, either through the
pipe or direct into the atmosphere.
The filtered liquid leaves the central chamber B of the filter drum by an outlet
at its lower part and enters the pipe and rises through the pipe up into a lantern K
(which is also provided with an air discharging cock ) and flows off through the
two pipes which communicate with the lower part of the lantern K.
These pipes are provided with shut off cocks and contracted mouth-
pieces so that the free sectional area of the discharge is from the very first smaller
than the free sectional area of the inlet E, whereby a certain opposing pressure is
constantly maintained in the central chamber B of the filtering drum T.
At the highest point of the central chamber B is arranged also a lantern D with air
discharging cock e and a pressure guage. In the modification of the apparatus shewn
in figs. 6-11, this lantern is not provided on the central chamber; but there is
arranged on the highest point of the central chamber B an air discharging cock m
which communicates by a pipe or flexible tube n with the interior of the glass
lantern K.
The
This apparatus is further provided with a separate froth preventing device 1,
constructed as follows-On the upper part of the pipes (fig. 11) is fixed a funnel
shaped dish whose edge is provided with peculiarly bent portions . The outer
casing is of downwardly tapering shape and is closed at the top by a cover.
lantern K is mounted on the cover of the froth preventer, from the lower part of
which are carried upwards discharge pipes c, c. Flexible pipes and are connected
to the outlet unions of the air discharging cocks band o, and unite in the flexible
pipe 2.
The apparatus operates in the following manner. The beer or other liquid is forced
through the inlet pipe E and its cock a into the lantern G either by the pressure in
the cask or reservoir itself (in the case of liquids such as lager beer) or by means of
suction and force pumps in the case of liquids which are kept in open casks or have
no internal pressure.
The rubber ball in the lantern G is caused to rise from its seat and allows the
liquid to proceed through the two flexible tubes ff and their unions g g into the two
filtering chambers A A, the air being at the same time driven out through the
cocks at the upper part of the filter drum and through the branch pipes / 1,
cock and pipe into the glass lantern G whence it is discharged by opening
the cock b. When the air has been discharged from the supply conduit and the outer
chambers A. A of the filter drum, the cock b of the first lantern" is closed; the
cocks c, d, d, may be open during the further operation of the apparatus so that
the entrance chambers have double communication with the "lantern" G, and thus
enable a uniform pressure to exist in such chambers A A, the supply conduit E, f,
and the lantern G whilst air that may leak in, or any air remaining after snifting,"
can pass through the pipes II and to the lantern G, whence it can be discharged
when desired by opening the cock b. But as hereby a diminution of pressure takes
place in the lantern, and this may easily cause sudden frothing of the beer entering
the lantern, it is preferable to keep the cock c closed during the operation of the
apparatus, and only to move it from time to time in such a manner as to allow any air

page_text: that may have collected in the meantime in the pipes to escape directly into the
atmosphere.
This method of discharging the air from the filtering chambers forms an important
feature of this invention and obviates disadvantages attending methods adopted with
filiering apparatus heretofore employed in which air passes through the filtering
layers, and escapes from the apparatus in the same way as the filtered liquid.
The air discharging cock e of the lantern D arranged on the central chamber, or
the cock m of the second modification of the apparatus as well as the cock in the
outlet union p remain closed at the commencement of operations, so that an opposing
pressure is produced in the central chamber B, and the liquid entering the other
chambers A A rises only vertically and drives out the air through the cocks d d
connected therewith.
But when the chambers A A are filled with liquid the cock e or in the second
modification the cock m is slightly opened, and then the cock in the outlet union P js
also opened, so that the liquid alone, since there is no air left in the filtering chambers
passes sideways through the whole surface of each of the two filters FF, into the
central chamber B.
The opposing pressure in the central chamber B which still exists and is maintained
in consequence of the slight opening of the air cock m above it, prevents the foaming
or frothing of the liquid passing from the filters. The filtered liquid first fills the
central chamber B and the outlet union p and then gradually the flexible pipe 7 and
thereby forces on the one hand the air contained in the central chamber Bout through
the air discharging cock e and on the other hand, the air contained in the flexible
pipe and the lantern K out through the open cock o.
り
In the second modification of the apparatus air is driven out on the one hand through
the air cock m above it (and which is situated at the highest point) and through the
pipe connected to it, and on the other hand out of the froth preventing device and
the pipes pands into the lantern" K above such device whence it escapes, when the
cock o, is opened, by the flexible tubes and 72. When the air has escaped from
the central chamber B and the flexible pipe 7 and also from the lantern K, the
cocks eando are again closed.
Since the lantern K is situated higher than the lantern D, the central chamber Bis
therefore constantly filled, and moreover an opposing pressure is produced in the
central chamber so that the beer is completely prevented from frothing when passing
out of the filtering layers.
It will thus be seen that the air is discharged independently from each separate
chamber of the apparatus and by a passage quite separate from the path of the liquid.
When the apparatus is filled for the first time, the pressure produced in the central
chamber B is at the commencement so small that slight frothing can hardly be
prevented at first.
But if it be desired to prevent such first frothing, the central chamber B and the
chambers A A must be placed from the beginning under pressure by the introduction
of air so that the liquid flowing into the said chambers must drive the compressed air
in an upward direction, and the liquid passing through the filtering layers into the
central chamber also exposed to the action of a sufficient opposing pressure. The
beer rising in the flexible pipe flows into the lantern K. passes into the discharge
pipes, and leaves the apparatus through the contracted (tapering) mouth
pieces of the cocks a, .
In the second modification of the apparatus the filtered liquid ascending in the
pipes (Fig. 11) of the froth preventing device flows over the peculiarly bent
portions of the funnel on to the conical walls of the outer casing L.
The edge of the funnel extends close up to the said conical wall so that the frothing
of the liquid as it overflows from the funnel is prevented.
The liquid flows quietly down, enters at the bottom of the device I into outlet
pipes e e, and leaves the apparatus through the contracted mouth pieces
w.
As a result of this contraction of the mouth pieces a pressure is also produced in
the lantern K such that frothing of the beer is prevented here also.

page_text: As long as the filtering apparatus is to remain in operation the cock e must be
closed shortly before each cask becomes empty so that when the cask becomes empty
the compressed air presses the ball upon its seat and thereby cuts off the entrance
to the pipes leading to the filter chamber so that entrance of compressed air
into the apparatus is efficiently prevented.
As soon as another cask is placed in communication with the apparatus, the entering
air is allowed to escape by the cock at the upper part of the "lantern." That
cock is closed as soon as liquid enters the lantern G and the cock is opened again.
If the rubber ball should fail to raise itself from its seat it is raised by means of the
spindle s¹.
C
The above described arrangement of apparatus allows of constant supervision as to
whether the liquid in the central chamber is under sufficient pressure. Should this
pressure not be sufficient, froth will be visible in the glass lanterns D and K. This
frothing can be readily prevented by diminishing the internal sectional area of the
liquid discharging outlet by partially losing the outlet cocks c, a. By this means an
increased opposing pressure is produced serving to prevent bubbles and the formation
of froth.
'
Since the sectional area of the outlet, as already mentioned is smaller than the
sectional area of the inlet, the result is to ensure a constant opposing pressure in the
central chamber B.
This is of great practical value as the correct operation of the apparatus is thus
rendered independent of the intelligence and attention of the operator.
As will be evident as the central chamber B is filled with a column of liquid under
pressure and as the liquid issuing from the two filtering surfaces enters direct into
this column of liquid not only is the escape of carbonic acid gas prevented but the freed
gases will reunite completely with the liquid in consequence of the pressure.
When the apparatus is to be quite emptied, for instance, with the object of changing
the filtering layers, a time should be chosen when a cask has become empty.
In this case, the cock e in both modifications of the apparatus remains open, whilst
the cock m above the filtering drum in the second modification remains closed.
As soon as the cask is empty and the supply of liquid ceases, the rubber ball falls
upon its seat, and thus closes the pipe so that the compressed air (the cocks c, d, d,
being open) enters through the pipe & its branches, 7, into the filtering
chambers A, A, forces the liquor in a quiet and uniform manner through the filtering
layers, and from the top to the bottom so that the liquid remaining in the filtering drum
leaves the drum in a filtered state and flows quietly through the outlet pand into the
lantern K, and in the second modification of the apparatus, also into the froth pre-
venting device I, and flows off through the pipes v. There remains thus only a small
quantity of filtered liquid in the pipe which cannot be driven off by the compressed
air.
Instead of arranging two filters within the filtering drum, the number can be
increased as desired.
The arrangement may also be modified in such manner that only one entrance
chamber A is provided for the liquid to be filtered.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of iny inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is,
1. In apparatus for filtering and drawing off without froth, beer or other gas-
containing liquids, a drum capable of rotation and provided with one or more filtering
layers which act in a vertical position, and also with a chamber for the filtrate, the
