BRICK MACHINE.
Application filed September 19, 1924. Serial No. 738,621.
To r177 whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ELIE BLANoHn'r'rE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lawrence. in the county of Essex and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Brick Machines, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to brick machines and it consists in the novel features l1QIel11 after described and claimed.
An object of the invention is to provide a machine of the character stated, which is of simple and durable structure, and which may be easily and conveniently operated by hand, foot or power, forming a series of bricks simultaneously.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a front elevational view of the brick machine.
Figure 2 is a side elevational view thereof.
Figure 3 is a horizontal sectional view, thereof, out on the line 3-3 of Figure 2.
Figure 1 is a fragmentary sectional view of the brick machine.
Figure 5 is a side elevational view of power means, which may be used for operating the brick machine.
Figure 6 is a perspective view of a partition wall, which may be used in the brick machine.
The brick machine comprises a stand 1 having a table 2, mounted on the same, the said table being provided at its inner edge with an upstanding flange 3, having spaced recesses 1. A hopper 5 is mounted upon the upper rear portion of the stand and partition walls 6 are mounted for movement below the hopper and through the recesses 4 in the flange 3. The partition walls are connected together by means of a rod 7, having its end portion slidably received in slots 8. provided at the sides of the stand 1 A shaft '9 is journaled at the intermediate port-ion of the stand and is provided with arms 10, having recesses 11, which receive the rod 7. Other arms 12 are fixed to the shaft 9, and are disposed at right angles to the arms 10. The forward ends of the arms 12 bear against the sides of levers 18, which are pivoted upon a rod 14, at the upper forward portion of the stand, and spaced wall sections 15 are carried at the upper ends of the arms 13 and are adapted to be disposed above the upper surface of the; table 2. i prings 16 are connected at one cndfwith.
the arms 13 and are connected at their other ends with the stand 1 and are under tension, with atendency to hold the side edges of the arms in engagement with the BHCl'SUf the arms 12. A hand lever 17 is fixed tothe shaft 9.
It is apparent that when the'up'per' end of the lever 17 is swung rearwardly, the shaft 9 is turned, whereby the arms are rocked upon the said shaft, and the partition walls 6 are carried back under the hopper 5. The material of which the bricks are to be formed is passed through the hopper which is movable forward by hand and deposited upon the table 2 in the spaces between the wall members 6. hen the upper end of the lever 17 is swung in a forward direction, the shaft 9 is rocked, whereby the partitions 6 are moved to the position shown in Figure 4 of the drawing and the wall sections are substantially vertically disposed at the forward edge of the table 2.
Having described the invention, what is claimed is In a brick machine of the class described, a table, a fixed wall at one edge of the table provided with a plurality of vertically disposed slots, a pivoted wall at the opposite edge of the table and provided with a plurality of slots, a plurality of partitions slidable across the table through the slots of the walls, means for simultaneously sliding the partitions across the table through the slots of the wall and swinging the pivoted wall to an upright position, said means comprising a shaft, arms extending from the shaft, a rod extending through the ends of the partitions, a structure in which the shaft is journaled and provided with slots for receiving the rods, arms extending from the shaft and having slotted terminals receiving the rods, other arms projecting from the shaft at'an angle to the first arm, curved members extending from the pivoted wall and engageable with the second arm so that when the partitions are moved across the table, said second arms will engage the members for swinging the pivoted wall to a vertical position, and spring means engaged with the members for normally urging the pivoted wall to a lowered position.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
ELIE BLANCHETTE.
