Patent GB-565249-A (GB)
Title: Improvements relating to guards for metal cutting or drawing presses and other like machines
IPC: F16P3/04
Filed: 1943-05-20
Abstract: 565,249. Machinery guards. UDAL, J. D., HERBERT, W. J., and MOORE, K. R. C. May 20,1943, No. 8048. [Class 80 (iv)] In a metal cutting or drawing press or like machine, wherein a guard is interlocked with the clutch controlling mechanism, the invention consists in the combination with a clutch controlling member, and a latching member movable by the guard into and out of a position in which it prevents movement of the clutch controlling member, of means whereby the latching member and the clutch controlling member are interconnected so that the guard can serve to actuate both in the required sequence. On the crank-shaft a is freely mounted a fly-wheel c which can be connected to the shaft by a clutch key d urged by a spring to its operative position. At the end of each rotation of the shaft, an arm h on the key encounters a pivotal stop i and is rendered inoperative. A guard is pivoted at k to a frame m. The guard j is interlocked with the clutch control stop i through a latch bar p so that the stop is effective when the guard is open and vice versa. Further, a lever q, mounted on a shaft u carries a roller r which rides on the periphery of a collar s and can also enter a notch t in the collar. Thus, when the shaft is rotating, the roller prevents opening of the guard and when it is at rest the roller enters the notch to permit the guard to be opened. The shaft u is connected to bar p by a lever v and link w, and to the pivot shaft of the guard by levers y, z and link x. The latch bar p has secured thereto an arm 2 pivoted toggle-fashion to a link 3 connected to a bell-crank 4, a link 5 from which has a lostmotion connection with a lever 6 connected to bar 7 having a notch 8 engaging a projection 9 on the stop. On closing the guard j, the bar p is retracted from stop i, the toggle 2, 3 moved to the other side of its dead-centre position and the bell-crank 4 out of and back to its initial position. This is permitted by the lost-motion connection between 5, 6. To start the press, the guard is momentarily moved slightly further beyond its closed position to cause the toggle 2, 3 to retract the stop i and allow the key d to function. Immediately thereafter, the guard is returned to closed position, thereby bringing the stop i back to operative position to stop the press after one revolution of the shaft a. On moving the guard to open position, the bar p engages the stop and prevents accidental starting of the press.
