Title: Improvements in or relating to actuating mechanism for turrets of automatic machine tools
IPC: B23Q16/02
Filed: 1951-05-02
Abstract: 712,244. Turret-lathes. ARON, E., and PULMAN, W. E. R. May 2, 1952 [May 2, 1951], No. 10335/51. Class 83 (3) Actuating mechanism for the turrets of automatic lathes includes means for rendering the turret indexing mechanism inoperative during certain periods of the lathe cycle while permitting successive traverses of the turret slide, the mechanism being of the kind wherein a first cam traverses the turret slide and a second cam initiates or interrupts the indexing transmission. The first cam 5, Fig. 1, on a transverse shaft 10 is continuously rotated through bevel gearing 48, from a main cam shaft 47. The cam 5 has inflexions which, through a double-armed lever 6 and rack and pinion gear 8, 9 traverses the turret slide 39. A second cam, Fig. 5 (not shown), carried by the shaft 47, operates in known manner a one-revolution clutch 32, 38, Fig. 2, and has a number of projections equivalent to the number of inflexions on the cam 5. On engagement of the clutch a disc 24 carrying a roller 25 rotates through one revolution and engages a Geneva wheel 26 connected to the turret indexing transmission and the turret is rotated one division. The disc 24 is, however, carried on an axially movable sleeve 29 which may be moved to the right to prevent roller 25 engaging the Geneva wheel by the operation of a third cam 15 on the transverse shaft 10. A forked lever 18 pivoted at 17 carries a roller 19 held against the periphery of cam 15 by a spring 27 and rod 20. The upper end of this rod carries a roller which, when in its uppermost position, engages a cam groove 23 on the periphery of the sleeve 29 and thus moves the sleeve to the right. Depressions 28 in the periphery of cam disc 15 permit this upward movement of the rod and thus interrupt the indexing of the turret allowing the turret slide to make a second or further traverse with the same tool. Other parts of the mechanism function in the manner described in Specifications 712,242, 712,243, [Group XXIV], and 712,245, which are referred to.

Title: Remote control fluid distribution
IPC: B60R17/02
Filed: 1924-04-30
Abstract: 237,958. Bijur, J. April 30, 1924. Spring-actuated pumps ; air trapping ; suction reservoirs; waste liquid, catching.-A pump O, supplying lubricant through a conduit system to the bearings of a motor-vehicle, is mounted on the dash-board I, Fig. 5, by a bracket 152 and a split bush 153 and draws its supply from a reservoir R mounted on the back of the dash-board by straps 150. The pump is discharged by a spring 135, Fig. 4, arranged between the plunger 134 and a bush 132 which closes the top of the cylinder 131 and through which the plunger rod 133 extends. An inlet fitting 141 and an outlet fitting 145 provided with a check valve 146 and connected to the conduit system are threaded into a base member 136 threaded on the lower end of the cylinder, the fitting 141 being secured in position by a plug 144. The plunger, which is provided with cup leathers, is fitted with an extension 138 of somewhat smaller diameter threaded on an extension 139 of the plunger rod, in order to avoid gripping of the plunger by the application of the base 136. Oil escaping past the plunger passes through holes 156 above a stop shoulder 157 and passes down to the engine side of the dashboard through the space between the cylinder and a guard sleeve 158, this space being closed at the top by a washer 160 and having outlets at the bottom. The fitting 141 is connected by a pipe 115 to a well 112, Fig. 3, formed in the base of the reservoir R, which comprises a chamber 92 having a neck 95 supporting a strainer cup 96 secured by a split. ring 98 engaging in an annular groove 99. Oil supplied to the chamber 92 through the strainer 96 filters through a felt disc 103 into a chamber 102 which is vented by two pipes 101, the lower ends of which are clamped to the disc while their upper ends enter holes 100 in the neck leading into the groove 99, from which an inclined hole leads to the atmosphere. The disc 103 is secured in the chamber by clamping collars 109, 110 and rests on a support 111 having serrations 129 and apertures 129<1>. Between the chambers 102, 112 is mounted an inclined check valve V provided with arms 120 limiting the drop of the valve. If the pump is operated when the reservoir is empty, thus drawing in air, the valve V remains open on the discharge stroke by reason of the low viscosity of the air, thus preventing the supply of air past the check valve 146 into the conduit system. When the pump draws in oil, however, the valve V closes during the discharge stroke, and the oil is supplied to the conduit.
