This invention, stated in its broadest terms, relates to wire winding machinery "of the automatic type and has more especial rel-ation to machinery of this type in which small b `coils ofwire yare formed andjsiinultaneously secured between adjacent coiled springs for holding vthe latter togethen i The invention consists of the novelconstruction hereinafter described and finally l@ claimed. Y f
The nature, characteristic features and scope of the invention will be morefully understood from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying l drawings formingpartlrereof7 and in which:
Fig. 1,is a View in front 'elevation of `machine parts embodying the invention.
Fig. 3, is a view lin side elevation of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4, is a plan view thereof.
Fig. 5, is a face view of the doublek cam `shown at the left hand sideof Fig.` 1.
Fig. 6, is a View showing in end `elevation the dovetail fit of the sliding aw..
Fig. 7 is a front diagrammatic view i1lu`strating the manner of coilingwire around a pair ofcoiled springs.
Fig. 8 shows the saine parts in end elevation.
Fig. 9,'is a view in perspective ofa linished, detached coil; and i i Fig. `1(),is a view in plan of several fooil'ed springs secured together by said wires.
In the drawings, 1 designates a )frame `which may besupported in any wavy, as for instance suspendedv by rods 2 from the ceiling. Rotatably supported in frame'l is the main driving shaft f3 `and paralleling the same is the secondary shaft 4. Theishafts been illustrated.` Eachof the shafts 3 andv 4 is equipped witha feed roller the same being designated 7 and 8 respectively. These Afor accommodation and in rotation feed `in Fig. 1, thepin-27 is pressed outward thus source ofrpower forming no'part of thepresrollersare grooved annularly. at 10 and 11.y
the wire 12 through a 'fixed "guide 13` directly to a 'stationary Yjaw r14, "see Fig. 2. 7
Thislix'f'ed jaw is"`provided witha wiregau'ge of semi-circularcontour fand `desifgnated *15, the gauge being provided with a `series "f grooves best seen in Fig. "8. These grooves 'alignwith similar grooves of a wire gaugel Vof a movable jaw 17 so that when the :jaw
`17 4is shifted to the 'left in Fig. the twjo 6o gauges abut and the grooves formfc'omplete spira-ls. Thus, as the guiderollers feed "wire Y12 to the meeting gauge parts the wire is forced around inside the same to form a coil 19, as seen in Fig. 9. As the wi're -12"`is fed through the rollers 7;-8 it`may, if found desirable, strain out the wire prior to being `fed through the saidrollers by means ofi straining rollers 20,1se`e Figs.` 1 andB. These straining rllers 20 yform no part of` thepresent invention andmay `be positioned in any desired place, for instance: `upon the `frame 1 as shown lin thedrawings. The 'shi'ftable jaw 17 is moved to the left iny F ig. 2 bymjeans of aflever`21 having slot and pinconnection This rock-shaft also car- 8O frame 1 by means of coiled spring26, which `spring tends to keep the shiftableja'wl V 17 moved to the right in Fig. -1.` The extension 25is operatedlupon by means of a shiftable pin 27, see Fig. 1;, which pin car- 'ries at its lower end a roller 28 `adapted to traclr'upon la cam 29. This cam 29 is carried by driving shaft 3 and in therotati'onof the cam 29 in the direction of the arrow moving extension 25 of arm 24 upwardly `against the actionof spring 26, `thus shifting the spring 26 causesthe extension 25,1arm 24,
lever 21..and jawfl? to Linove to normal p05 sition. `Theextefnision `25 shown at'theleft ico 4l1a"r1dj. side of Fig. lis providedwitl plate 45 against which actuated with a pin 30 having a rounded end which pin 30 in the rotation of the feed roller 7 is adapted to contact withv the inelineds'ur- -faceof the head 31 of avertieallyarranged pin 32.` `Thispin 32 upon being depressed arounda pair of adjacent `coiled springs exerts pressure upon theinclined surface 33 `of a` horizontally disposed member 34 which carries a longitudinally extendedlcutter 35, thelouter end or cuttingedge ofivhich cutter "35 normally is substantially flush with the innermost portion of the gauge l5, as clearly illustrated* atfzthe left hand" side of Fig. `2. :The ycut-ter v35 is mounted in this normal positionlby means of the spring 36. Thus,
as thefeed rollers 7 `and 8` feed `Wire 12 `of the gauges lfandl the Wire 'is coiledin said gauges in the fashion shown in Fig.
37e-3821As` the coils 19, previously described, are thus formed, thefeed roller 7 has `proportionately advanced so that the `studBOdepresses head` Sland the pin `32 `andfsliifts` member 311 totlie riglityto cause thevjcuttei' 35 `to sever the coil 19, as formed from:` the remainder of the Wire l2. This operation is repeated and repeated until the required f number of vsprings y37 and 38 are securedi together by Wire coils 919, an illustration of ivliielr is shovvn in Fig.` 10.v "It maybe stated tliatftheiaw `14 is provided with opposed slots :39, see Fig. 8, and the jawL 17: is provided ivith similar `slots 40,
which slots are usedllas guides for presentingisprings 37e-38 to thegaugesi 16.
The slidable jaw 17, `as shown in Figs. 2V and 6, is providedwith a dovetailed connection 'with respectto the frame 1. y i
The bearing 42 which supports shaft `4f is mounted in Ways 43in frame 1 and the bearing 42 has cushioned relation as at 44 with the rfi'rame `1, `see Fig 1. "This is so tliatthe feed-"rollerB is -fre`e`to move to the right "orleft in Fig. 1 to" "take care ofany inequalities in thefwire l2 and'tlierebyipreventjammingof feed roller parte@` uIt`^`ivill`now apparent that I have devisedi-a novel `-and useful construction "whicli embodies the features of advantage enume`ratedas desirablein the statementof the 1in fvention and the above descriptioiiand Vivhile` y I havefin thepr-esent instance shovvnand 50 described the` preferred embodiment thereof `which :has been foundin practice to `give "satisfactory and reliable results, it is to be l, understood that the same is susceptible of.` modification in various particulars Without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention or tages.
