Title: Improvements in or relating to Clicking Presses.
IPC: C14B5/00
Filed: 1909-03-20
Granted: 1910-06-20
Abstract: 6750. Bates, A., and British United Shoe Machinery Co. March 20. Cutting-out apparatus.-In a clicking-press in which the platen is movable bodily into and out of operative position over the bed, a device is provided which is controlled or actuated by the said movement of the platen either or both (a) to actuate the power starting device of the press, and (b) to lock the platen in its operative position. In the construction shown, the platen A<2> is adapted to oscillate about a shaft M<3>, which is reciprocated vertically by links M<5> eccentrically mounted on a shaft M<7>. When the platen, in its forward movement, reaches its operative position, a face B on the platen frame rocks a bell-crank lever C, which, through suitable link-work and a clutch, couples for one revolution the shaft M7 with a constantly rotating member on that shaft to secure the pressure - applying movement. Simultaneously with this clutching operation, a rear bolt C<4> is elevated as shown in Fig. 3, to prevent a rebound of the platen, and this bolt together with a guide B<1> serves to control and guide the platen during its descent. The platen frame is provided with an extension H resiliently connected with the frame of the machine to act as a counterweight for the oscillating platen. The rearward movement of the platen is limited by a stop J, which is adjustably mounted on the platen frame and is adapted to engage one of a series of stops J<1>, J', J<3> on the machine frame.

Granted: 1910-08-25
Abstract: 19,731. Tattersall, W. Aug. 28. Planes, arrangement and construction of.-The supporting-pianes are relatively long and narrow and are arranged in an inclined series descending from front to rear of the machine. The planes may be curved, or tapered as seen in plan in Figs. 16 and 17, or they may be corrugated in the direction of their length, as shown in Fig. 10. Fig. 39 shows the planes adapted for use as a radiator for the engine. They extend between hollow supports 188, 191,192. The middle support is provided with a diaphragm 190, and an inlet and outlet 189, 193, whereby the water flows through the upper planes, and thence to the lower planes by way of the supports 191, 192. The supports are fishsuaped in cross-section to reduce their wind resistance. Several methods of mounting the planes to form a series are described. The planes 17 .. 20, Fig. 18, may be provided with brackets 21 ... 24 through which rods 27<1> pass, distance-pieces 25 of tubing being inserted between the brackets, and the whole being tightened up by nuts 28. Or they may slide into slots in side beams or be secured thereto in other ways. Fig. 24 shows one method of mounting the groups of planes on the framework 58 of the machine, in which they are supported by spring wire stays 59 ... 61<1> passing through rings 76, 77 and provided with tightening-devices 75. Fig. 25 shows a method of mounting a plane 78 or group of planes in a resilient and readilydetachable manner by means of springs 83, 84 connected to hinged hooks 86. A rod 80 secured to the plane 78 passes through a compression spring and the framework 85. Steering and balancing.-The planes may also be mounted so that their angle of incidence may be adjusted by the action of the wind or manually. According to Fig. 27, the upper end of the group of planes is pivoted to the machine at 92, and the lower end is adapted to move against the action of springs 101,102. For effecting manual adjustment, the wire stays which are connected to the lower member of the series are attached to a cord 112 running over pulleys 113, 114. The cord 112 runs over a third pulley provided with a hand-lever. In Fig. 30, each plane 123 is shown pivotally mounted upon the framework 132 at 135, and is capable of automatic adjustment controlled by springs 126. A somewhat similar arrangemeut may be employed capable of manual adjustment, the planes being connected to a cord running over pulleys provided with a hand-lever.

Title: Improvements in the Class of Machines commonly known in the Art as Screw Machines.
Inventor: PEARSON WALTER BEVERLEY
IPC: B23B7/04
Filed: 1909-11-16
Granted: 1910-11-10
Abstract: 26,560. Pearson, W. B., and Seward, E. R. Nov. 16. Lathes. - In an automatic screw machine, there are a series of cams on one member, any one of which may engage another member to move it, the cam-carrying member completing a movement at each engagement. The cams a, b, c, d, e, Fig 6, are arranged all to start at the same point and, preferably, all to give the same movement x. The invention is described with reference to a hollow-spindle, toolturret machine with the cams arranged on the cam-drum 26, Fig. 4. The drum is given a complete revolution for each reciprocation of the tool spindle, and is driven by toothed gearing 50, 51 from the main cam-shaft 17, the wheel 52 being mutilated so that, after a cycle of operations, the drum remains stationary while chucking, feeding, &c. proceeds. The drum is formed with a cut-away portion 26<1>, Fig. 11, to facilitate the changing of the studs 34. The drum can be taken out and changed for one with different cam-surfaces, but the change can be effected only when a flange 123 registers with the mutilated portion of the wheel 52. The tool-turret spindles 25 are adjustably mounted in collars 31, which have a number of recesses 33, in any one of which may be clamped a stud 34 engaging one of the cams, the spindle being adjusted longitudinally by means of racks 40 engaged by pinions 41 operated by a spanner, an aperture for which is provided in the turret frame. Fig. 11 shows a modification, in which the cams 201 are arranged one above the other, and are engaged by one of projecting studs 203 of varying depth mounted upon the turret spindles. The camshaft 17 is driven independently of the workspindle from a pulley 78 on a shaft 74 through wheels 64, 65, or a differential drive 61, Fig. 2, and wheels 62, 63, and worm 55 and wheel 54, the controlling clutch - lever 67 being automatically operated by a cam 68, Fig. 4, on the shaft 17. The rotating and locking mechanism for the turret is driven by a pinion 79 on the shaft 74; the pinion 79 drives a pinion 80 intermittently clutched to a shaft 81 carrying a double-crank arm 87 with two rollers which engage slots 91, Fig. 2, in a Geneva wheel 90; a spring-pin which enters bushings in the turret frame and locks it is withdrawn by camsurfaces 97, Fig. 4, on the back of the crank arm 87; the shaft 81 is connected to the pinion 80 by a spring-returned clutch sleeve 86 operated by a bifurcated lever 100, which is actuated to put the clutch out of action by cams 104, 105 on the arm 87, the arm being frictionally held in inoperative position by a spring- pin 108. To release the lever 100 to enable the clutch to come into action, a dog is operated from a cam 113 on the cam-shaft 17 to bear upon a starting-pin 109 and start positively the rotation of the arm 87.

Cutting and slicing vegetables &c.-A slicing- machine for meat &c. comprises a vertical reciprocating knife and an horizontal reciprocating support provided with means for feeding the meat towards the knife. Figs. 1 and 2 show one construction of a double-acting machine. A double-edged vertical-blade knife 19 is fixed to a guided block, which is reciprocated by a crank-pin engaging the slot 18. The upper end of the knife-blade is slotted to engage the guidepin 21, and the cutting-edges preferably converge towards the base so that the blade cuts only on the down-stroke. A second crank-pin 13 mounted on an horizontal spur-wheel engages lateral guides 15 on the support 20, which is thus reciprocated with a harmonic motion on rollers 22 on a track in the framing. The knife and support are geared up to the main spindle 1 so that the knife makes several reciprocations to each stroke of the support. At the end of each stroke of the support, a spring-controlled lever 45 mounted thereon strikes one of the pins 17, and thereby operates the pawl of the feeding-mechanism to which the end 48 of the lever is connected. The feeding-mechanism moves the table 25 in guides at right-angles to the stroke of the support 20. The pins 17 are adjusted to vary the thickness of the slice by the rods 31, 33. A platform 'or receiver for the cut slices. may be arranged in the projections 40, and may be provided with guard-plates overlapping the cutting-edges of the knife.
