Filed: 1933-04-29
Abstract: 397,808. Type-bar-making machines. INTERTYPE CORPORATION, 360, Furman Street, Brooklyn, New York, U.S.A. April 29, 1933, No. 12515. Convention date, May 24, 1932. [Class 100 (iii).] Assembling-apparatus.-The assembler slide d is provided with the usual resistant e carried by a slidable bar f which is pulled by a spring or weight and is operated on by a brake i to prevent the bar f from moving to the right, and a mechanical connection is provided between the brake i and the rod p operating the assembler-belt driving-mechanism or between the brake i and the tight-line-release lever v, or both, so that the brake is released on actuating said rod or lever respectively, to close up a matrix line that has been slackened by adjustment. The rod p which serves to put the driving belt for the assembler-belt driving- mechanism into and out of operation is formed with a cam surface which, when the rod is pushed in or out, serves to move a wire t connected to the brake i to the right and thus releases the brake momentarily. The bar f carries an adjustable stop u which at the end of a line strikes the lever v. If the line be too full, the lever v can be raised to liberate the stop and hence the bar f, to permit the last matrices to be removed. Upon pressing down the lever v beyond its normal position, a spring- controlled rod is displaced and moves a wire y connected to the brake-lever so that the brake is automatically released.
