Abstract:
My improvement relates particularly to cane mills comprising a plurality of metal rolls between which the stalks of cane are passed under such compression as will expel the juices from the tissues of said stalks. The object of this invention is to so modify said rolls as to produce more effective action between rolls in grasping the cane stalks and drawing them forward between the rolls.
Claim:
In a cane mill, the combination of three rolls, one being a primary roll and the other two being secondary rolls, the primary roll having a longitudinally continuous face and being set in opposition to the secondary rolls to form two passes, and the secondary roll at the intake side of the mill having transverse grooves separated from each other by relatively narrow spaces and having a depth less than their width and their width being approximately equal to the diameter of the cane stalks which are to be crushed. |
