AUTOMATED SCULLERY. PHASE II. DEVELOPMENT OF CONCEPTS.
Abstract
The report contains the following sections: The Summary outlines the most important project developments, including the work performed, recommended machine concepts, and other conclusions derived from the Phase II program. The section on the 'Development Study of the Mess Gear Cleaning Area' gives the results of the investigation of the high-velocity spray approach to the cleaning of mess gear, including the jury-rig experimentation and the resultant proposed mess gear cleaning operation suggested by the success of these experiments. 'Handling and Transport of Mess Gear and Gross Soil' describes the processing functions which take place from the input to the output of the machine. In this section, proposed concepts, with their possible alternatives, are presented along with drawings and brief evaluations of their effectiveness. In the section on 'Automated Scullery Configuration and Design Factors,' the machine arrangement and the various important auxiliary design factors are presented for consideration. The section on 'Machine Evaluations and Cost Estimate of the Automated Scullery' discusses the factors which are relevant to an evaluation of the various machine areas and offers a preliminary evaluation of these areas and the overall machine. In addition, the unit cost of the scullery is given in a preliminary estimate of production units.
