Granted: 1913-07-24
Abstract: 20,624. Auto Machinery Co., and Wood, H. S. Sept. 10. [Cognate Application, 29,565/12.] Ball and roller bearings.-A self-alining ball or roller bearing is combined with a self-alining ball thrust bearing to take thrusts in one or each direction. The journal balls d run on a spherical surface a<1> in the outer ring a and on an inner race c, which has on one or both its end faces a race for thrust balls f bearing on thrust rings e. The outer sides of the thrust rings are spherical, the curves being struck from the same centre as the surface a<1>, namely the centre of the ring of balls d. The thrust rings bear against spherical or conical surfaces b<1> on flanges b, B formed on the outer ring n. The flange B is removably and adjustably screwed into the ring a, and is locked by a screw g. The balls d may be replaced by barrel-shaped rollers running on outer and inner cylindrical surfaces; the curve of the rollers is struck from the same centre as the spherical surfaces on the thrust rings.

Abstract: 14,672. Gimson & Co., and Mills, W. P. June 25. Heels, machines for.-A heel-attaching or analogous machine, of the type described in Specification 28,192/11 in which the work is carried on a rotatable and manually-operated table into and out of position below the machine head, is provided with automatically operating means for locking the table against movement in either direction from the operative position, which when released simultaneously locks the starting-treadle against operation. When the table is in operative Position, a stop 36 which slides in the machine bed b enters a socket in the table c and so locks it against rotation. The stop is pivoted to a lever 34 pivoted at 35, and connected by a link 33 with a bell-crank lever 32 adapted to move a slide 2 carrying a stop 1, so that the stop is positioned either above or to one side of the starting-treadle f according as the table is free to rotate or is locked against rotation. The slide may be moved in the direction to free the treadle by the weight of the levers and the links, and in the other direction by a spring 4. A rod 39 attached to the end of the lever 34 connects it with the end of a similar lever 40 positioned by the side of the lever 19 carrying the table locking- bolt described in Specification 28,192/11. The lever 40 is provided with a lip extending over the lever 19 so that when the lever is moved by the cross-head to free the locking bolt the lever 40 is also actuated and with it the lever 34 thus locking the treadle simultaneously with releasing the table. When the table is swung round the main locking- bolt is released to be ready to lock the table immediately the table reaches its operative position as described in the before-mentioned Specification. The bolt 36 however remains depressed. holding the treadle locked until one of the socket holes comes above the bolt.
