App ication fired May 10, 191s. semi-m. 766,829."
To aZZ whom it mayco'ncem:
Be it known that I, CHARLES Forums, 2. citizen of the United States,-res1dmg at Bridgewater, inthe county of- Plymouth and State of Massachusetts, have invented new and useful Improvements in Leatherand pi-irticularly to the machines known in the art as wet machines.
The object of the invention is-to provide instrumentalities 'adaptedto act automatically upon the collectionof a-predctermined amount of stock upon the collecting roll of' said machine to sever saidstock longitudi nally of said rolland tostrip said stock therefrom.
The invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts whereby the above object and certain other objects hereinafter appearing. may be attained,"as set forth in the following specification and partic-ularly pointed out in the claims.
Referring to the drawingsz'Figure 1 is a plan view of amachine embodying my in vention, portions ofsaid machine being broken away to save space in" the drawings.
Fig. 2flis a rear elevation ofthe machine with portions of the frame broken-away to save space in the dlfaW1I1gS.fFIg. 3-1s a transverse sectional elevation taken I1'l1116' of Fig. 1. Fig. 4"is a-transverse sectional-elevation taken on line 4-4 of Fig. 1,
portions of said machine being broken away and removed to save space in the drawings,
said figure also illustrating the cutting instrumentalities in their normal inactive positions. Fig. 5 IS a section similar to-Fig. 4
illustrating the cutting instrumentalitiesmoved to their uppermost position relatively to the collecting roll with the cutter partially withdrawn from the cutter block. Fig. 6 is a detail transverse sectional elevation taken on the line 66 of Fig. 1 illustrating the means for detecting the amount of stock collected by the collecting roll, parts of the machine being broken awayand other parts removed to save space in the drawings. Fig. 7 is a detail section taken on line 77 of Fig. 3 illustrating the latch for operably connecting the cutting-instrunicntalities with the collecting roll, said latch. being shown in its two positions in 7 Specification of Letters ream:
new. and useful the'cutter bar andc'utter and-cams for mov- 1ngsaidcutter bar longitudinally'shown in sect on, portions ofsaid cutter and cutter bar being. broken away to save space in the drawings. Fig.10 is a diagrammatic view illustrating the cutter bar and the cams for moving said cutter barlongitudinally.
, Like numerals refer to like parts throughout the several views-of the drawings.
In the drawings, l0iis the main driving shaft: whichis journaled to rotate in suitable bearings in the frame 11 of the machine. Secured to'the shaft 10 is adriving roll 12 which is adapted to rotate in connectionwitha belt 13,-- preferably constructed of felt. A- collectingroll 14 is rotatably arranged above and adapted to be supported by said roll 12 in-contact' with the belt 13.
The collecting. roll 14 is secured to shaft '15 which extends beyond the opposite ends of said roll14 and through theverticalslots 16 in the frame 11,- ablock 17 being arranged toengage and fit the upper portion of: eaeh of the ends of said shaft, said blocks being slidably arranged and guided-in the slot- 16 of the frame 11.
The stockis fedin a thin film and in a manner Well-known to those skilled in the art; but not shown in the drawings, to the upper surface of the belt 13- and as said belt is drawn between the rolls 12 and 14 said stock is pickedup or adheres to the periphery of the collecting roll 14 and gradually builds upa layer of stock about said peripheryt When the stock about said roll reaches acertain predetermined thickness it -is necessary to seven or out said stock lengthwise of said roll and to strip the same fromthe periphery thereof.
In the building up of the layer of stock on the roll 14 itis necessary that the exact amount of pressure he applied thereto in order to make said stock the desired consistency. For this purpose the weight of the roll 14 is-always resting upon the film of stock and as said'stock increases in thickness said roll will be elevated or moved laterally relatively to the roll 12 vertically in-the'slots 16. To still further aid in the compression of said stock levers 18 are fulcrumedat 19 in the forked members 20 secured to the frame 11. Rods 21 provided PatentedFeb. e, 1915.
' dotted and full lines respectively-. Fig. 8 1s a transverse section'of oneend; of the-cot lectmg roll. Fig. 9 is adet'ail" plan view of with forks 22 at their upper ends are interposed between the under side ofv the-levers 18 and the blocks 17 insliding engagement 18 and adapted to be moved toward and 7 upon said roll.
away from the fulcrum 19 whereby more or less pressure may be brought to bear upon the blocks 17 and consequently upon the endsof the shaft 15. As said stock increases in thickness and approaches the predetermined thickness, the blocks 17 are gradually moved upwardly in the slots 16 and as said vertical movement takes place, means arranged in conjunction with said .roll in contact withone of said blocks 17 are actuated and when a certain thickness of stock is reached which has been predetermined, other instrumentalities, normally inactive, are set into motion to sever said stock lengthwise of'said roll and to strip said stock therefrom, while still other instrumentalities in their .proper turn return said cutting and stripping instrumentali ties to their normal inactive position in readiness to again be set in motion upon the collection of stock of the required thickness vAs a convenient form of means for detecting the predetermined thickness of said stock, see Figs. 1 andfi, I have provided a lever 25' which is pivoted at 26 to the yoke 23. An adjustable contact 27 is provided for said lever 25 which may engage said block 17 or preferably a lever 28 pivoted atone end upon a stud 29 carried by said block 17 while the opposite end of said lever 28 is provided with an adjusting screw 30, the end of which engages the block 17 thus permitting a finer adjustment for said lever than would be possible with the adjustable contact 27 alone. A spring 31 retains said contact 27 against the upper surface of the lever 28 and the screw 30 against the upper surface of the block 17. Upon the opposite side of the pivot 26 from the spring 30 and contact 27 is pivotally secured a pawl 32 which upon being moved by the rocking of the lever 25 operates means for setting into motion certain connecting instrumentalities hereinafter set forth.
Referring now to Figs. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 the collecting roll 14 is turned down or slightly reduced in diameter at 33, 33 adjacent opposite ends thereof and upon said reduced portions a cutter frame 34 is pivotally mounted, said cutter frame comprising side members 35 and 36 which are tied together at one side of the axis of the roll 14 by an angle 37 and upon the opposite side of said axis by a tie-rod 38. Said cutter frame is normally adapted to remain in the position illustrated in Fig. 3, that is, with the angle 37 in contact with a rubber bumper 39 secured to the cross frame 40 connecting opposite sides of the frame 11, the weight of said cutter frame being suflicient to retain the same in such a osition.. l v
Adjacent to the-tie-rod 38 counterbalancmg weights 41 are provided. which are adapted to very nearly counterbalancethe weight of the cutter frame and mechanism carried thereby, said cutter frame being slightly heavier than said weights. A cutter 42 is arranged upon said cutter frame exteriorly and longitudinally of said roll with its cutting edge 43 disposed toward the peerably secured to the edge of a cutter bar 44 tangentially disposed relatively to a circle disposed between the axis of saidroll and the circumference thereof within a recess 46 by a clamp plate 45. The cutter bar is sufliciently long to slidably engage the upper faces of the side frames 35 and 36, links 47 being provided which pivotally connect said.
c'utter bar with the angle37 and thus cause the cutting edge 43 of said cutter to always remain substantially parallel with the adjacent side of the roll 14, and each of said riphery of the roll 14, said cutter being pref-.
roll 14 said'cutter frame is arranged to be rocked or moved circumferentiall-y of said roll at the same rate of speed as said roll is being rotated, by means hereinafter more fully described. During said circumferen tial movement the cutter 43 is moved longitudinally. and by said longitudinal movement laterallytoward the periphery of said roll 14 and in contact with a cutter block 48,.
preferably formed of wood, which is inserted within a recess 49 formed in the rim of said roll and thus the materialor stock will be severed thereby. For thepiu-pose of imparting a longitudinal movement to a said cutter during said. circumferential movement to sever said stock I preferabl}.
provide -a cam 50 segmental in shape and adapted to be engaged by a roll 51 journaled to rotate in the end of a swinging arm 52, which is; pivoted at 53 to the .end of said cutter bar 44, see Figs. 9 and 10, said cam being secured by screws 54 to the frame 11.
It is essential during the operation of.
said cutter that said cutter frame and said roll 14 be operated togetherto prevent any relative rotary movement therebetween. To
accomplish such a uniform movement I- have provided said roll 14 with abutments 55, see Fig. 8, which at the proper times in the operation of the machine are operably connected to said cutter frame by means of latches 50, see Figs. 1, -l, 5 and 7, pivoted at 57 to the side frames 35 and 36 respectively, said latches being normally retained out of the path of said abutment 55 by fingers 58 which depend from a rod 59 extending longitudinally of the angle 37 and journaled to rock thereon in bearings 60, said fingers being'yieldingly retained in contact with stop pins 61 and in the positions to engage said latches by a sprin a handle 63 on said ro and by which said rod may be manually rocked, when occasion demands, to release said latches and permit the same to be engaged by their respective abutments. Upon the automatic release of said latches 56 when the proper amount of stock has collected about the periphery of said roll 14, the tooth 64 of the pawl 32, which is operated by the detecting means as hereinbefore described, is adapted to engage a projection 65 extending laterally from the shaft 59 see Fig. 5-, against which the end of said pawl 32 1s yieldingly retained in contact by means of the spring 66, to rock said rod 59 and thus release said latches whereby the springs 67 cause said latches to move from their full line positions Fig. 7 to their dotted line positions and into the path of the abutments Immediately upon the release of said latches the abutments 55 engage the ends 68 thereof and the cutter frame will conse quently be moved upwardly from the position illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4: to that illustrated in Fig. 5, but during the upward movement of said frame the first part thereof causes the cutter bar and cutter to be operated by the cam 50 to sever said stock, while during the remainder of the movement of said cutter frame from the point 69 of the cam 50 to the position occupied by said cutter bar in dotted lines in Fig. 10 and designated b, the end 7 0 of said outter bar engages a cam 71 which is also a segmental cam and secured to one portion of the frame 11, as indicated in Figs. 1, 2, 4 and 5, and this causes said cutter bar to be partially moved longitudinally toward the position occupied thereby on said cutter frame and indicated in dotted lines at b Fig. 10. This movement of said cutter bar slightly withdrawsthe cutting edge 413 of the cutter 42 from the cutter block. Simultaneously with the slight retraction of said cutter means are provided preferably consisting of cams 72 which engage the latches 5G, rocking the same upon their pivots and disengaging the ends 68 thereof from the abutments 55 permitting the fingers 58 to engage the opposite ends thereof and retain the same out of engagement withsaid abutments and upon the 62, which engages releasing of said latches the weight of said cutter frame and the means carried therebycauses the same to return to its normal position against the bumpers 39. During this latter movement the roll 51 engages the. inclined face 73 of the cam 50 whereupon the arm 52' will be rocked to the position illus trated in dotted lines at a, Fig. 1-0, permitting said cutter bar to pass said cam 50 Without being moved longitudinally thereby. As said cutter bar approaches its normal orlowermost position the end thereof engages another cam 74 which completes the Withdrawalv of said cutter from said roll. During the movement however of the cutter bar from the position indicated at b to that indicated at 0 the end of said cutter 12 engages said severed stock and strips it from the periphery of said rolls 14, while the continued rotary movement of said roll in the direction of the arrow 6, see Fig. 5, continues to feed the opposite end of said stock along the belt 13 untilthe same has been entirely freed from said rolls 12 and 1 1.
The continued contact of the cutter with the cutter block 18 soon causes such a deep recess to be formed inthe surface of said block that the cutting operation is hindered and to remedy this a new block must either be inserted in said'recess or the line of contact between said block and said cutter changed. The latter method has been found to be the most satisfactory in order to utilize practically the entire surface of the block. To accomplish this the abutments 55 are provided with slots 75 through which screws 76 extend into the roll 14, thus permitting a circumferential adjustment of said abutments relatively to said cutter block. The impact however between said abutment and said cutter frame is exceedingly severe and to prevent movement or displacement of said abutments, stops 7? are positively secured to said roll 14 at'the rear of said abutments and fillers 78 are adapted to'be inserted between the ends 79 of said stops and said abutments to completely fill thespace between the ends 79 of said stops and Said abutments. Said fillers 78 are furthermore adapted to be made in various thicknesses, thus to vary the circumferentialdistances between the abutments 55 and said cutter block.
The general operation of the device hereinbefore specifically described is as follows: The stock is fed to the belt 13 in a thin film and as it passes between the rolls 12 and 11 it is picked up by the periphery of said roll 14 and gradually increases the thickness,
of the stock thereon until the predetermined quantity has been collected, whereupon the detecting means including the lever 25 are operated, as described, to release the latches 56 or connecting means from the fingers 58 causing the 'same to engage the abutments mitted to return to its normal position during which movement said stock is stripped by said cutter from said roll and finally said cutter is' returned to its normal position on said cutter frame in readiness to again be operated, as stated, upon the collection of the next predetermined amount of stock upon said roll.
From the foregoing description it Will be i seen that simple and efficient means are provided for accomplishing the objects of the invention, but while the elements herein shown and described are Well adapted to perform the functions set forth, it is obvious that various minor changes may be made in the proportions, shape and arrangement of the several parts, without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
