Title: Improvements in Screen Conveyors.
Inventor: PYNEGAR HENRY
IPC: B07B1/42
Filed: 1909-06-12
Granted: 1910-04-07
Abstract: 13,840. Pynegar, H. June 12. Jigging conveyers. -Relates to jigging conveyers fitted with screening-apparatus for sizing coal, ores, ballast, &c. The screening-troughs a are supported at each side upon devices consisting of links b, c pivoted at d, e respectively to the base f. The link b is formed at its upper end with an eye which encircles a boss i secured to the side of the trough a. The link c at its upper end passes freely through the eye g of a bolt turning freely in the boes i. The link c is formed with a shoulder k, upon which rests a resilient washer supporting the weight of the trough a when the eye g rests upon the washer, as shown in the position at the right of Fig. 1. The troughs are actuated from a double crankshaft m by means of a connecting-rod formed in two parts connected together by a spring, as shown in Fig. 2, in which two forms of arranging the spring are illustrated. At the right of Fig. 2, the connecting-rod consists of two parts t, t<1>, the part t having a reduced portion t<2> which works through bosses t<3>, t<7> on the part t<1>, and the spring t<5> being arranged on the part t<2> between the boss t<7> and a collar t<4> secured to the part t<2>. At the left of Fig. 2, the connecting-rod is of similar construction, but the spring q<5> is arranged between the boss q<3> and a collar q<4> secured on the part q<2>. If desired each trough might be driven from a separate shaft with a connecting-rod of the appropriate form. In a modification, the eye-bolt g may be fixed in the boss i, and the eye made sufficiently large to give freedom of movement to the end of the link c. According to the Provisional Specification, adjacent troughs may be connected together by a system of links so that they shall move in opposite directions and thus preserve a balancing effect upon the driving-shaft; and, in order to facilitate the removal of the screens, Z-irons are secured to the sides of the troughs with the central web horizontal to form a ledge upon which the screens rest and to which they may be bolted.

Abstract: 26,007. Mills, C. K., [Dick Co., A. B.]. June 26. Pile tables for sheet feeds; sheet separators and forwarders; dropping-roller and like feeds.-Sheets are fed from a pivoted spring- supported pile table by a rotating fluted feedroll coacting with a dropping roller above, and acting to withdraw the top sheet from below a flange on a stop and buckle it against a crossbar, the flanged stop and the support being cam-operated so as to allow any sheets buckled with the top one to straighten out again. A fluted rubber roller 4, acting in conjunction with a spring - supported feed - board 25 and rotated in one direction only by gearing from a handle 6, withdraws the top sheet from a flanged stop 19, buckles it towards an adjustable cross-rod 49 until the free end comes over the top of the roller, and finally feeds it forward between its upper surface and a top roller 57, which is raised by a cam 59 as the sheet is taken by the machine to be fed. The feed-board 25 is provided with side guides 26 and rear guide 27, and is supported on a rocking frame comprising strips 29 secured to a rod 28 carried from pivots 31 on the side frames by bars, one of which is formed as a bent lever 30. The front end of the feed-board is normally pressed up against the feed-roll 4 by a spring 37 fixed to the frame and to a lever 36 secured to one of the pivots 31, the tension of the spring being adjustable by means of a nut 40 bearing on a bent-over end of the lever 30 engaging a screwed rod 39 secured to the lever 36. The board is tilted by a handle 32 on the lever 30 to admit of a pile of sheets being laid on with their front edges under the flanged stop 19 formed on a vertical spring - raised member 15, slidably mounted on a vertical flange 14 of the plate 13. A slight initial buckle is given to the pile of sheets by a curved cross-strip 54 secured to the feed-board. The rear part of the pile is held down by a presser plate 45 having trunnions 44 at its forward end engaging cam - controlled levers 43, and a cross-bar 49 is arranged in one of a series of holes or slots in flanges of the presser plate, according to the stiffness of the sheets being fed, to limit the length subjected to buckling. On rotating the feed-roll 4, the top sheet is withdrawn from the flanged stop, buckled and carried over the roll to be nipped by the roller 57, at which stage a cam 41 acts through the lever 43 to lift the presser plate with bar 42. The second sheet is partly buckled by the feed-roll while the front of the first sheet is carried round, but its complete withdrawal is prevented by means of a cam-actuated bellcrank 21 acting to depress the flanged stop after the top sheet is withdrawn. Then, as the top sheet is fed forward, the feed-board is tilted clear of the feed-roll by a cam-actuated bellcrank 82, and the partly-buckled second sheet is straightened out again.
