Electric moisture control device for cotton gin

摘要

A moisture spray device is positioned in overlying relation to the link slide and the cotton batt which moves down the slide with photoelectric sensing devices being provided on the lint slide for controlling a valve that supplies water to the spray device thus controlling the discharge of moisture onto the cotton batt in response to the thickness of the cotton batt. Time delay switches are incorporated to prevent the moisture control valve from shutting down in the event of a momentary break in the cotton batt and to allow the lint cotton in the slide to start normal flow after the tramper starts.
