Description: |
Abstract:
The object of my improvement is to express the juice from cane and similar stalks; and the invention consists, essentially, in yokes suspended by stirrups from the axis of the upper roller and supporting the journals of the lower rollers in such a manner that when one lower roller expands or opens to admit the cane, the other contracts or shuts in such a manner as to produce the greatest pressure, and vice versa; also, in the method of tightening or adjusting the rollers, and in the arrangement of the boxes that support the lower rollers relatively to the bearings of the yoke.
Claim:
The stirrup L, suspended from the fixed bearing of the upper roller, and sustaining the lower rollers in place in the act of pressing, and allowing them a free motion, and so arranged as to bind the rollers together, so as to confine the strain principally to the middle of the frame |
