Application filed April 4, 1911. ser a No. 618,799. f
TqaZl-whom it may concern:
3' Be it known that I, CHARLES E. RAYMOND, a citizen of the United-States, residing at ;Bo ston,'in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented new and usefullmprovements in Gearing, of which This invention relates to improvements. gearing, and its object is to eliminate the usual noise due to backlash between the teeth of int'ermeshing gears.
V In .all kinds of gearing in which there j .any backlash whatsoever, whether inspur gear s,.b'evel gears,- or in sprocket wheels and chains the backlash or play between the teeth at the pitch line, however'slight, produces more or less noise which is unpleasant, and the purpose of this'invention isto provide gears of this class with means for preventmgsuc'h no se.
j -The invention consistsin .the novel features of construction and in the combina-e t'ionand arrangem'entof parts set- .forth in the following specification and particularly.
. 1. Referring to the drawings Figure 1 is an elevation of a pair of intermes'hlng gears embodying my-invention. Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken .on linev 2-2"of'Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a detail sectional view taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a detall'elevatlon of a portion of the two-part gear showing the two parts in the position which they occupy when the teeth are; out of mesh with the other gear.
'Like numerals refer to like parts through-- out the several views of the drawings.
7 a 7 enerall 49 g In the drawings, the numeral-5 designates arrange parts6 and 7 rotatably mounted 'with respect to. each other and preferably a .the part 6 consists of a. ring jo'urnaled upon the part 7. .The part 6 is provided -with aset of suitable teeth. 8'and the part 7 is provided with an identical set of teeth 9, these teeth, in practice, being cut on both partsat .the same time. by fastening the two partsto each other in any suitable manner. \Vlnle this 'is the .case with cut gears, it is, of
"course", not the case with gears having cast teeth. -The two parts of the gear 5 are connected to each other by elastic yielding means urging the teeth of said parts in op-- posite' directions circumferent-lally with respectto each-other, said means preferably consisting-of one or more spr ngs 10 of any inent'with the-studs 12, respectively,

suitable construction carried by one of the instance, thegsprings 10 are somewhat bowshaped, as w11l be ev dent from anli'nparts and engagedbypne'ormore elements carried by the other. part. .In the present spection of Figs. 1 and'4, and are located in slot's- 11' pr'ovidedfin'the ring 6, 'said' .slots are concentrically arranged relatively.

Screws 16 having screw-threaded engage: gage ends 17 located in corresponding pyramidal spectively, thus providing-a means the screws are ,heldagainst acciden "al turn ing due to vibration and other ca ises and yet may be rotated to vary the tension of the depressions'18provided in the springs 10, re-
springs 10 simply by .applying sufiicient force to the screws to free the corners of the y as vhereby pyramidal ends of the screws from the .cor- 4 responding corners of the pyramidal de-- pressions in which they'are normally located. For the purpose of a justing thescrews 16, the same maybeprovided with squared portions' 19 to which asui't-ablewrench may be applied. Preferably the springs 10 are seated in extremities of each. of the the ring- 6' part' way through from the inner toward the ockets 20 formed outer face, but-'terminating short of the outer face, as will be evident from an-in- "spection of Fig. 3. These pockets provide room for the springs -to flatten when sufii-- cient force is applied thereto and also re- .vent the'springs from coming out of p ace accidentally, it being evident that the ring 6 niust be removed in order to permit the removal of the springs. "The screws 16 also form an additional means for preventing placed;
The gearmay meshjwith any suitable :element to drive or bedriv'en, such, for ex? ample, as. a rack or gear, the latter being shown in the drawingshnd designated by the numeral 21. It will be understood, however, that by properlyshaping the teeth of the gear 5 the samemay lie-adapted to mesh with a chainand my invention isnot limited to the precise construction shown, In male! ing up'the gear 5, the two parts 6 and 7 will, in practice,be pinned together by a'pin'22, shown in dot-tedlines in Fig. 2, driven through a hole 23 provided in thepart/6 and a holefl t provided in'thepart 7, this pin serving to cause the teeth 8, and 9 'to register witlreach other u'ntil the teeth of the gear- 21 havebeen placed in mesh therewrth, after which the 'pin 22 may be drive out; It'will now be evident that the-springs lO'urge the teetlrS and 9 of'the parts 6 and .7, respectively, against opposite fian'ksofthe teeth of the gear 21 andaecordiiigly, the spaces between the .teeth of the gear 2-1 at the pitch line' will be. entirely filled by the.
be no backlash \'l iateve1;. The tendency of thespringis 10*:to rotate. the two' parts (5 and '7 in opposite directions with respect to each other is illustrated in Fig. which shows the relative positions occupied by the teeth when the gear 21 is Ynthdratvn from mesh therewith.
\Vhile gears constructed as herein shown 'ard described may be utilized tor a variety-of purposes, thevare particularlyin-' tended and} adapted to-be used .in places where no' se is undesirable, and where spaceevident that such noise maybe obviated'by the use' of gearing constructed in accord anoe with my invention.
Having thus described myinv'ention, what I claim and 'dsireby Letterslatentto secure is:
r 1. A'toothed'gear having, i n combination,
.tw-o. coaxially arrangedparts each having at set. of teeth around its periphery, a stud se cured in one of said parts and provided with ahead, the other of said parts having a slot therein concentrically arranged relatively to the axis of-said par-t, one endotsaid slot {terminating in a hole substantially. equal in diameter to the head of said stud and the other 9nd of said-slot having a shoulder adapteh to engageihe under side ofsaid head whereby said g'ear parts may be placed together and locked against lateral movement relatively to-eaclrother, a flat spring located in said slot and provided with a depression, and a screw having sewn-threaded engagement with said stud and havingone end located iii-said depression. -2. A toothed gear having, in combination, two coaxially'arranged parts each having a set of teeth around itsperiphery, one of said parts, consisting of 'aring 'journaled 'upon the other of said parts, and having a 'slot th erein concentrically arran 'ed relatively to the axis ofsaidgear, a'stud secured in the other .of said parts proyidednvithia head and ad aptedto engage said slot, a fiat-spring, located in said slot and provided with a,py-' ramidalI depression, and a screw having screw-threaded engagementavit-h said stud alulprovided with a pyramidal shapedlend adapted to engage the corresponding depression in said spring.- Tn-testimony whereof I 'have hereunto set my hand in presence of twois'ubscribing wit nesses.
