CAN-FEEDING MECHANISM.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 12, 1918.
I Application filed June 1 1915. Serial No. 31,349.
To all'c'vhom it may concern:
Be itknown that I, FRED G. Foss,-a. citi- Zen of the United States, residing in Brooklyn, .in the county of Kings and State of New York, have inventeda new and useful.
Improvement in Can-F ceding Mechanism, of which the following is a specification.
' My invention relates in general to canfeeding mechanisms and has more particular reference to mechanisms of thischa'racter designed to transfer the 'filled and unheaded cans from the filling machinesto the "can-heading or closing machine or the like and this without appreciably jarring the contents.
A further object of the invention is-the provision of such a mechanism which will receive cans from a single machine and deliver them to a number of other machines arranged appropriately. l y
A further object ofthe invention is the provision of a machine of the character described which will be of'economicalconstruction and simple, durable and efficientoperation. I Other objects and advantages of the 111- vention will be apparent as it is better understood from the following description when considered in connection with-the ac- ;ompanying drawing illustrating; a preferred embodiment thereof;
Referring .to the drawing,
Figure 1 is a top plan View of a mocha -nism embodying my present invention:
Fig. 2 is asection taken substantially on the line thereof;
Fig. 3 is a section taken substantially on the line 23-3 of Fig. 2-; and
" Fig. A is a section taken substantially on the line 4:?4: of Fig. 1.
' he'can-ieeding mechanism embodying segment of a continuous ring.
my invention and shown on the drawing is adapted to receive cans 10 from a disk 11 or other part of a filling or othermachine. The cans 10 are received intothe feeding mechanism embodying my present invention upon arotating disk or table 12. The disk 12 is secured to a collar 13 (Fig. rota tablyembracing a stationary shaft 14'. The
r The disk 12 is secured to a plate .19 upon which slide can-ejecting devices 21, which devices are adapted to move some of the cans from the )late onto the conveyer at ap-.
propriate intervals. The ejecting devices are four in number and each constitutca As the cans/ are received on the plate they are disposed between the outersui-face of-this segmental ring and a fixed guide extending about. the side of the dlsk upon which thecans- .are disposed in n'ioving-from their point reception from the plate 11 to the points of discharge onto the conveyer 18. The
The conveyor is divided into three separatei parts 2'. 6., 26, 27 and 28 forming lanes, andy this by means of two intermediate guides 29. Viewing Fig. '1, it will be noted that; the cans 10 'are accurately positioned be-l tween spring plungers 31 sliding in bl ocksi 32 fitting between a-nnular plates or rings} 30 and 30 which are carried upon posts 41! securedto the plate 19', as will belatei de-j scribed. Each ofthese plungers consists ofl a radially sliding finger 33 (Fig. 1) mounted in a recess in its block 32 and normally' held outwardly by a spring 3 a sit con.'
nection being provided between the bloclt I and finger to limitontward motion of the finger. The distance. between the normal outer ends'of these fingers and the guide 22 is such that the inter-position/of a can will depress the spring and cause the can tgbe retarded by the outer guidenntil it rests between the fingers, in which position it; will be retained by tlie'outw'ard protrudence of the finger behind it until it reaches the discharge posit-ion. Each segmental part 21 of .8 the ring is disposed beneath three spaces between these plungers. This provides three can positions opposite each segmental part, this number being the number of lanes also on the conveyer, itbeing desirable that each segmental part shall .carry in front of it a number of cans equal to the number of lanes upon the conveyer. I j
As each segmental part approachesthe conveyerv it "starts to move radially outwardly and when immediately Opposite the conveyer. it is at the end of its outward stroke. It returns thereafter back to normal position before further cans may be posilined in front of it. These-movement's are imparted to the segmental parts of the ring by a fixed mutilated gear 36 which is fastened at 37 upon the end of the stationary shaft 14'; This gear engages .pinions 38 mounted upon the ring which is carried above the plate 19 on posts 41 so that the ring 30 moves with the plate 19 .and with the disk 12. The pinions are secured to the under side of this plate on pivotal connections42. Each pinion carries a crank 43 upon which 'is mounteda roller 44 which in turn is engaged in a'slot 45 extending transversely of the rear of an appropriate segmental part 21. The pinions 38 engage the forward end of the mutilated gear 36 as they succesively arrive at the discharging station and after engaging therewith, turning of, the pinion moves outwardly the segmentalpa'rtinto the position shown in Fig.
3. This serves to discharge the two rearmost of the three cans carried by the segmental part, the other can being guided off bythe extension 25 of the guide .24. The segmental parts are constrained'to movein a true radial reciprocation by a rib l6 taking in an appropriate slot 417 in the plate 19. p
It'wlll bemanifest that any number of lanes may be provided upon the conveyer, it
being desirable that a corresponding numjher of cans be disposed oppositeeach segmental p'art. 1 1 a Q It is thought that theflinvention and-many of its attendant advantages will be understood from the foregoing description, and it will be apparent that various changes nrsy be made in the form, construction and arrangement oftlic part without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention or sacrificing any of itsmaterial advantages, the form hereinbefore described being merely a preferred embodiment thereof.
