Title: Method and apparatus for building tires
IPC: B29D30/12
Filed: 1952-09-02
Abstract: 729,155. Tyre-building. WINGFOOT CORPORATION. Sept. 2, 1952 [Nov. 1, 1951], No. 22054/52. Class 144 (1). In building a tyre on a crown-type drum 1 wherein a band 4 of material is arranged thereon with a sleeve-like edge portion 3 overhanging the drum end, the portion 3 is moved inwardly against a pleating ring 7 having projections 9 thereon whereby the edge portion 3 is formed with pleats or scallops prior to being pressed against the end face 2 of the drum 1. As shown, the pleating ring 7 is mounted on the drum shaft 5 to engage axially adjustably with the edge of the drum end face 2, the projections 9 of the ring forming a sinuous edge which is bevelled to conform with the inward slope of the material edge portion 2 as the latter is stitched thereagainst by a star-wheel 11 and an integral smooth-faced stitcher 12. The projections 9 have rubber fingers 13 on their undersides to project slightly outwardly therefrom to co-operate with the stitcher 12, the edge of the fingers 13 being coated with cement to hold the pleats formed by the star-wheel 11 and pleating ring 7 in position. After the pleating operation, a tyre bead 14 on a carrier 6 is moved against the pleated edge 3, as the drum 1 and carrier 6 is rotated, by a flat-faced stitcher 15, Fig. 3, thereby flattening the pleats against the drum face 2 in the manner shown in Figs. 15-17 without bunching of the material, the cords in each ply becoming crowded together but remaining in the same plane. During the advancement of the bead 14, the material is pressed over a snubbing ring 20, carried by the pleating ring 7 and having spaced rearwardly projecting leaf springs 35, which presses the material under tension against the underside of the bead and stitches it thereto. The bead carrier ring is then moved to an inoperative position and the material is hand-heeled around the bead and stitched as by wheel 15. For tyres having two beads at each end, the pleating ring 7 is then moved axially with respect to the drum from the position shown in Fig. 1 to that shown in Fig. 8 ready for the pleating of an additional band of material and the application of the second bead. This movement is to ensure the provision of just the required amount of material, under the desired tension, to lie against the end face of the drum, or the underlying bead portion in Fig. 8, the length of the sinuous portion of ring 7 being equal to the peripheral length of the material edge 3. In an alternative arrangement, the rubber fingers 13 on the projections 9 may be omitted and the pleats held in position by being stitched to a cement coated rubber ring arranged within the ring 7 to project slightly outwardly from the valleys of the sinuous surface.

Abstract: 479,909. Moulding tablets &c. by rotary-table machines. STOKES MACHINE CO., F. J. Aug. 11, 1936, No. 22105. Convention date, Sept. 13, 1935. [Class 87 (ii)] A tablet - compressing machine comprises a number of reciprocating punches carried in a rotary table, one set of punches having core rods - which remain stationary during the reciprocation of the punches. The punches with the core rods are provided with means co-operating with stationary members mounted in the table to prevent rotation of the punches, the stationary members being adjustable to permit angular adjustment of the punches to secure alignment with the co-operating punches. Fig. 1 shows a machine in which punches 15, 36 are carried by a rotary table and are reciprocated by cams 13, 45 and rollers 11, 47. The table is made up of a number of rings, the punches 15 having their bearings in openings in the upper ring 16 and being prevented from rotating by keys 18, Fig. 2, secured to the punches and engaging in slots in the bearings. Alternatively the punches may have square or polygonal shanks fitting in correspondingly shaped holes in the ring 16. Each pair of punches 15, 36 co-operates with a mould 23 which may have an irregular shape inside in which case it is turned till it is in alignment with the punch 15 and then clamped in position. The alignment of the lower punch is secured by arranging it so that it does not leave the mould during its downward movement. To enable cylindrical tablets with an irregular perforation or a number of perforations to be made, the lower punch is provided with guiding means capable of adjustment to maintain alignment between the lower and upper punches. As shown in Fig. 2, the punch 36 is provided with a key 35 which engages in a key-way 32 formed in a bushing 31 which can be turned and clamped in position by a washer 33 and screw 34. The punch is provided with core rods 21 which enter corresponding apertures in the upper punch 15, when the tablet is being compressed. The rods 21 are mounted in a holder 27 provided with laterally extending lugs 28 which lie in a recess 29 and rest on the bushing 31. The lugs 28 pass through slots in the punch 36 so that the latter can be reciprocated without moving the rods 21. Outlets 19 are formed in the punch 15 for the egress of any material forced by the rods 21 into the apertures in the punch 15, and grooves are formed in the rod holder 26 to enable powder to escape through the lower punch. The lower punch is removed when necessary by first removing a plug 42 in the rotary table, then lowering the punch till the key 35 is disengaged from the key-way 32 and rotating the punch till the lugs 28 enter slots 54 in the bushing 31. The table is rotated by a prime mover through teeth on the disc 30. The thickness of the compressed tablet is controlled by adjusting the position of the roller 47 which is carried by a lever 49 the position of which is adjustable by a wheel 50.

Abstract: 281,768. Molins, W. E. Sept. 8, 1926. Packing cigarettes and the like in cartons.-Relates to machines, for packing cigarettes and the like, and of the type in which an article such as a batch of cigarettes is moved by a continuouslv moving endless conveyer towards a second similar conveyer acting transversely. According to the invention, each batch is moved from a stationary position at the end of the path of the first conveyer and into the path of the second conveyer by the action of an oncoming batch on the first conveyer. As shown, and as applied to a machine such as is described in Specification 169,341, a pusher 5 on a conveyer 1 forwards a batch towards a second conveyer 2. During this first movement, the batch may be moved into contact with foil, which may be fed and cut by mechanism such as is described in Specification 165,891, may be wrapped in the foil to form a U-shaped block ended container 3 open at one end, and may be moved into engagement with a pair of rotary side tuckers actuated as described in Specification 214,792. The tuckers first carry the wrapped cigarettes away from the pusher piece 5 and then form two side tucks in the open end of the container. The package now arrives at a position between upper and lower guide plates 6, 7 adjacent to the second conveyer and remains stationary while a vertical tucker 8 turns down the upper broad end flap of the container. The pusher piece 5 is adapted to depress the lower end flap as it moves down below the bed of the machine. The next succeeding batch now pushes the forward batch on to the second conveyer 2, a slide 13 having been fed into position by rollers 14, 15. The sides of the slide may be folded upwardly by the rollers 15 and may be held in position by a movable guide 17 during the advance of the batch. A cam 18 lifts the guide 17 while a pusher 19 on the conveyer 2 feeds away the slide and batch for insertion into a shell by mechanism such as is described in Specification 169,341. During this feed, the end flaps of the slide and, consequently, the lower flap of the foil, are turned up by suitable folding mechanism. The shell may be opened by the mechanism described in Specification 266,834, [Class 18, Boxes &c.], and the foil may be embossed by the device described in Specification 269,981.
