    Abstract: 164,339. American Cotton Oil Co., (Assignees of Phillips, C. 0.). June 5, 1920, [Convention date]. Cylinder machines; cooling and heating apparatus; delivery; feeding; cleaning apparatus; moulding soap.-Molten soap is charged into moulds and passed through cold brine but out of direct contact therewith; the preliminarily cooled cakes are then discharged from the moulds and subjected directly to the action of the cold brine; after which the cakes are preferably washed with water to remove brine. The soap is delivered from a jacketed hopper 16 by screws 20 to a cylindrical series of moulds 12 fitted with radial plungers 13 controlled by a series of adjustable fixed cams. After leaving the hopper, the moulds are first cooled exteriorly by a chamber 71 and interiorly by a brine spray and then pass into a tank 1 containing cold brine. Before entering the brine, the moulds pass beneath a strap or band 72 encircling the moulds, which strap prevents direct contact of the brine with the soap. The strap 72 is anchored at one end and is adjustable by a rod and nut at the other. The plungers 13 are moved by the cams to take up shrinkage of the soap. After leaving the strap, the plungers are forced outwardly by cams 38 to eject the cakes which are detached by rotating arms 45 and pass down a shoot 76 on to a conveyer 83 traversing a brine tank 82, and subsequently a fresh water tank. A brine spray assists the discharge of the cakes. Before passing beneath the hopper, the plungers are cleaned by a brush 79. A main shaft 27a drives the mould cyinder continuously through worm gearing 28, 29; the screws 20 through bevel gears 30, 31, arm 32, rod 26, ratchet mechanism 25, and bevel gears 24; the cams 38 through bevel gears 33, 36 and shaft 35, and the arms 45 through the shaft 35, gears 39, 40, shaft 41 and bevel gearing 43.
