Granted: 1911-02-10
Abstract: 3338. Boult, A. J., [Leeson, J. R.]. Feb. 10. Yarns, warping a n d beaming.- Two - speed gearing, suitable for warping or beaming machines, comprises a belt pulley &c. 20 secured to a shaft 2, which is to be driven, and a pulley 15 loose thereon and able to be connected thereto by epicyclic reducing- gearing, which is disconnected when the e high - speed drive comes into action. A spindle 37, carried by the pulley 20, is keyed at one end to a wheel 41 meshing with a wheel 16 secured to the boss of the pulley 15. A pinion 40 secured to the other end of the spindle 37 meshes with an internallytoothed ring 30, which is supported on a boss 23 loose on the shaft 2. A projecting arm 26 keeps the boss 23 from turning, and ratchetclutch rollers 31 between the boss 23 and ring 30 prevent the ring 30 from turning backwards. When the belt is on the pulley 15, the pinions 40 run on the ring 30 as fulcrum, and the pulley 20,is driven at reduced speed. When the belt is shifted to the pulley 20, the shaft 2 is driven . directly, and the gearing becomes disconnected by the ring 30 slipping forward. The pulley 12 is an ordinary loose pulley.

Granted: 1911-03-09
Abstract: 7635. Roots, J. D. March 29. Securing bearings on shafts. -In a ball bearing to take both journal load and thrust, one of the race rings is divided and held together by a detachable flanged ring. The inner race ring shown in Fig. 3 is in two parts A<1>, A<2>, held together by a flanged split ring J, which is compressed and sprung into position. To prevent the race rings from moving sideways or from rotating relatively to the shaft or outer casing, tongues K are sprung up from the caps and engage notches or recesses in the shaft or the casing. Holes z, Fig. 17, are formed in the flanges of the caps to receive a key, so that, by forcibly turning the caps, the tongues K can be withdrawn from their recesses. Fig. 11 shows a modification in which the cap J<2> is divided into two equal parts, the ends of which are curved and spring into recesses or keyways on the shaft. Fig. 14 shows a modification in which each half cap J has a projection R at each end, and at each side of the shaft W is a flat Q<1> terminating in a lateral keyway Q. The' projections R are slid along the flats and then turned into the keyways. Fig. 17 shows a modification in which the inner cap is divided into three segments J<3>, the ends of which spring into slots Y' in the shaft. A bearing .having two rows of balls is shown in Fig. 19. The undivided race ring A<3> has an extended central bearing A<4> to take thrusts in both directions.

Abstract: 15,205. Ford, T., Ford, T., and Ford, J., [trading as Ford & Sons, T.]. June 25. Pottery, turning. - Relates to constructions of jolly arms to allow curved or wedge-shaped feet, projections, or flanges to be formed at any angle to the body of the article. Fig. 1 shows a profile tool a, for forming curved feet, carried by a jolly arm b, mounted on parallel links c pivoted to a base e adjustable about a vertical axis in a bearing f<1>. For forming a wedge - shaped foot, the profile tool may be secured to a slide i, arranged in the base e and connected to one of the links c by a link j. Figs. 4 and 4<a> show a jolly-arm b mounted on disks n, which are secured eccentrically on shafts o and are connected together by a link p. The arm is lowered against an adjustable spring stop by means of a counterweighted lever q on one of the shafts o. The shaft o passes through curved slots t in the arm b, dust being prevented from entering through the slots by rotatable disks r mounted on studs s. In a modified construction, the jolly-arm is mounted on a single eccentrically pivoted disk carrying an operating lever, the arm carrying a pin engaging a slot in the operating lever, so as to cause it to move in the required direction. The disk is connected by a link to a double-armed spring-controlled or weighted lever to return the parts to their inoperative position after use. In other constructions, (1) the tool is fixed to a lever b, Fig. 13, adjustably pivoted to a frame e and connected by a link j<1> to an operating lever q having its handle portion adjustable by means of a bolt q<3> and slot q<1>; (2) the jolly-arm is pivoted about a point much below the mould carrying the plastic material being shaped; (3) the jolly-arm is pivoted to an adjustable pivoted rod, and its motion is controlled by a projection carrying an antifriction roller moving in a fixed guide; (4) the profile tool is carried at the end of a curved or straight slide reciprocated by means of a pivoted lever operating either through rack-and-pinion gearing or a slot-and-stud connexion; (5) the tool is in two parts, one of which is mounted on parallel links, while the other part is carried by a third pivoted link connected by a short link to an extension of one of the parallel links. An adaptation of the invention for forming a flange inside an article is shown in Fig. 15, the tool a being mounted on a spring-controlled arm b<2> pivoted to the arm b, which is suspended on links from the base frame e. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 805/77.

Title: Improvements in Metal Bound Box End Stapling Machines.
Inventor: CRAIG EDWARD
IPC: B21D51/26
Filed: 1911-05-09
Granted: 1911-08-03
Abstract: 11,166. Craig, E. June 16, 1910, [Convention date]. Stapling. - In stapling the ends G of a box bound by metal bands g<1>, the staples are driven through the metal binding and into the end walls of the box. The stapling-head E is mounted on an arm projecting from the machine pedestal, and comprises a staple-former e, a driver e<1>, and a loop bar e<2>, together with a lock for automatically operating the stapleformer. The driver e<1> is secured to a vertically reciprocating head e<4> actuated from a driving- shaft D. A link e<11> is pivoted on the upper end of the staple-former, and is provided at its lower end with a finger e<12> adapted to be inserted between the points of the staple when this strikes the metal binding. A rod e<13> extends upwards from the link e<11> through a hole in a plate e<14> secured to the head e<4>. A spring e<16> between the plate e<14> and a collar e<15> on the rod e<13> maintains a downward pressure on the staple-former. After the staple has been made, the former is released from its positive connexion with the driver, which descends, driving the staple, the former e being pressed against the metal binding by the spring e<16>, while the finger e<12> passes through a slot e<18> in the casing and projects between the legs of the staple. The end of the finger e<12> is rounded off so that it may be thrown outwards when struck by the head of the staple. The wire is fed intermittently by feeding-mechanism operated by a cam on the driving-shaft. The box, which has one side left open, is placed below the staples on an arm projecting from the pedestal of the machine. A cylindrical clinchblock H is adjustably mounted at the end of the arm and is provided with a circular recess to clinch the staples. The edge of the block H is kept against the side of the box, and ensures the staples being driven at a uniform distance from the sides of the box. The loose side of the box is not stapled to the end walls. If a box with a sliding cover is to be stapled, the binding is stapled on the four sides, the binding itself serving as a distance-guide while the fourth row of staples is being driven. A recess is formed in the clinch-block arm to enable the box to be turned for stapling into corners.
