page_text: On the plan in Fig. 2 is shown top of saw table B with parallel guides d, side
view of which is shown in the sectional elevation Fig. 1, and at front end of saw
table B is a handle d and screw d' for raising top of saw table for rabbeting.
At further end of saw table B is shown the "planer" or planer bed C which will
plane a board a foot wide and four inches thick at outer end of planer.
The planer beds are raised and lowered by two handles h worked by bevel wheels
as shown in sectional clevation.
My improved machine consists of a frame work F carrying a saw frame A, a
planer bed C a moulding bed D. and a number of shafts S³, S, S³, S4, S5, and S,
carrying a number of pulleys P to P and the wheels W WW2.
The shaft S
carries the pulleys P1 P2 P3 P4, and the pulley P¹ imparts a motion to the pulley P
mounted on the shaft S' on which the circular saw M is fixed. The pulley P
transmits a motion to the pulley P mounted on the shaft Se. The pulley P³ is
driven by the engine and rotates the shaft S. The pulley P* drives the counter
shaft S by means of the pulley P' the said shaft S³ carries moreover the pulley P
which transmits a motion to the pulley Ps and hence to the shaft S' cogs 30, and
feed rollers of the planer bed C. The shaft S' is rotated by the pulley Px driven
from the engine, and imparts a rotation to the crank disc F" to the feed wheel
with eccentric gear G and rod I and to the toothed wheel W* gearing with the gear
wheels WW driving the feed rollers RR. The bearings at one end are mounted
on a granite block o as in Figs. 1, and 4.
In the sawing part of the machine, the vertical guides g are actuated by hand by
means of a key handle J Fig. 4. The mechanism consisting of the shaft carrying
pinions gearing with racks is operated by the lever Figs 1, and 4, so as to
depress the pulley to tighten the wood on to the feed rollers R. B is the top of
the saw table provided with parallel guides a Fig. 2, and in which turns the saw M,
this table being raised or lowered by the screw d' actuated by the handle d.
In the planing arrangement C is the planer bed and D the moulding bed, e are
thumb screws and i parallel bars whereby the logs are shifted under the knives
instead of shifting the knives upon the log as heretofore practised. The planer bed C
is raised or lowered by the two handles bevel wheels wand screws 5. At the end
of the planer spindle H the moulding apparatus D is provided with a screw to
receive the moulding blocks which are tapped so as to be tightened according to
requirements, this arrangement allows of a number of blocks with fixed knives
being always ready for use.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
1. The combination upon a framework of a moulding planing and sawing
machines, substantially as herein described and according to the accompanying
drawings.
2. In a combined moulding planing and sawing machine, the mechanism applied
to the planer bed and to the moulding bed for the purpose of shifting the wood
under the knives consisting of the thumb screws e and the parallel bars i, substan-
tially as herein described and according to the accompanying drawings.
3. The combination of moulding planing and sawing machines mounted on a
wooden or metallic frame, substantially as herein described and for the purpose
specified.
