1. This inventionrelates to certain improvements in-iipin. operatingme'chanism for use withithe folding cylinders employedin connection with printing machines.
a.) -.In a copending application of J. B. Tomlin,
Serial No. 492,990, there is shown and described a folding mechanism in which an improved con-j structionis provided for quickly shifting or changing the sheet taking Spins and folding blades from collect to non-collectpositions' a t is the'e special object oi the present invention 7 to "improve and simplify the mechanism shown in said'application-by which the sheet taking pin'sj'may be readily moved'from collecting posi tion to non-collecting position and vice versa. It is a'further object of the invention to produce a mechanism of few partsfor effecting this change which-can be operated from outside the cylinder. Y n
With theseand other objects not' specifically referred to in View, the invention consists in "certain novel parts, arrangements and combinations, which will be described inconnection with the accompanying drawings and the novel features I pointed out in the claims hereunto appended.
In these -drawings,--

IR'eferring nowto these drawings, theinvention pending Tomlin application, Serial has been shown asembodied in a;folding. and collecting cylinder'in which the collecting devices are in' the form of pins," which are projected 'be-' yond the cylinder wall toitake a-sheet,'or sheets, and rocked or retractedto' release :the sheet.
Thisi cylinder is marked I in the. drawings? and is 4 supported on su'itable cylindrical bearing bush ings 48a carried by eccentric bushings 48, which are mounted in anysuitablefraining 3, 4; Inthe particular mechanism 'shown,"this collecting cylinder is what is'known asa three part collecting cylinder and is'providedwith threesets'of sheet taking lpins, "marked 5; 5" and: 5! 'inlFigur'e' 1, and these pinsare carried on rockshafts 6 suit.-v
ablymountedin thecylin'der'heads or ends [it being understoo'dthat any desired number of-pins may be*used' on, each pin shaft, two such pins being indicated in Figure 2. Ii In .accordancewith the invention and'in the machine shown; an improved; mechanism? is pro-'- vided for' operating the pinlshafts :soiaslto cause the pinsito operate-to take and release a sheet on each one-third revolution of the cylinder when not co1lecting,.orto take and release three collected products on each two revolutions :ofFthe cylinder when a product is to. bepco'llected, this mechanism being such that itfcan be operated from without the cylinder. That-is; each set of pins acts to permit: the foldingofi of a productrat each revolution .of the cylinderwhen not collecting or 'at I each: alternative :revolutioh of the cylinder when-collecting.v
While, the specific mechanism employed may besomewhat'varied, asshown; the rock shafts .6
havezconn'ected':theretocam: rolls 8, B'and 8",
which are adapted toengage in a cam groove .'9 of a Cam In, and the shafts 6 are normally;biased taking positions by any suitable means such, for. example, 'as'the springs Zemployedr in the .00.- No; 492,990. This cam '10 .issecured-as by bolts H, to swinging arm 12 pivoted on studs 13 securedin an annular member or ring .14; ring is a two part ring-the parts being-clamped together by screw boltslS; shown in Figure 1'.
The annular the frame of thamachim soasto ,be'zfixedrelatively to the "cylinder in ianyasuitablemanner. 7 In the best constructions, however, this connec-' tion will be .an adjustableione so that the .point at which the rollsi8, 8 andx8'7iwill engage the cam groovefimay be varied, to-varythe time of operation of the. sheet taking pins} therefore secured-so as to be rotatable relatively to hold the sheet. taking pins in impaling or sheet member'or. ring Mris secured to The ringis to the cylinder. Asshowmit is secured to a boss IS on the machine frame by bolts I! working in slots l8 in the ring so that the ring may be given a small rotary adjusting movement. This is effected in the construction shown by right and left hand adjusting screws I9, 28, best shown in Figure 1, suitable lock-nuts2l being provided to hold the parts in adjustedposition; These screws work in a block 22 secured to' the cap piece220 by bolts 22L This block is slotted, as at 222, and receives a screw bolt 223 which engages with a projection or ear 2'24 on thering, with which bolt the screws engage, so that when they are operated the ringjis moved back and forth. d 3 1 It will be understood from "the description of the mechanism just given that when not collecting the cam rolls 8, 8', 8". eachengagethe cam groove 9 on every revolution of the cylinder, so that three products are folded on" at each revolution. When collecting, however, the swinging cam I is swung out of the way :o'feachalternate roll and lets it pass bywithoutengaging it, and
thus each of the rock. shafts will be operated once in each two revolutions,- and the mechanism -for ,operating'the swinging camand for shifting from non-collect to collect; position will nowbedescribed. Q
. Referring to Figuresz to 4, the swinging cam H! has dependingtherefrom an .arm in which is secured one end of an actuator-rod 23. This rod, at its other and passes through a block 24 and is providedwith acollar v25, between which and the block is a'spring 26. Beyond the block, the end of the rod is-hollowed, as shown, at 21,
'; to receive a short rod" on a hub, the rod 23 being secured'to rod 28in any suitablemanner. This hub'29 is a swinging. hubandcarries a short shaft 38, shown in Figure 5, to which is secured a cam roll 3|, the hubsand associated parts being supported by a bracket 32 suitably secured to the frame 4 of themachi'na'before referred to. g L j This cam roll -3l engages a face cam- 33. car-. ried by one of the operating gears of the cylinder, marked 34, .though'it may be otherwise supported if desired. V T .1
It will beunderstood that the action. of the spring rod 23 is to push'the swinging cam'lll out of engagement with the cam rolls 8, 8, 8", but that themovement of the cam roll 3l tends to pull it into the path of the rolls.8,.the. parts being so arranged and timed in the machine shown that this will occur so that three products are folded ofl at each two revolutions "of'the. cylinder, this position being. shown in Figure 3.
When now it is desired to operate the "cylinder I so that three products are folded off at each revolution, thatis, when no collecting is to be done, means are provided for' swinging the cam "i i ion to en age'the-mus 8,18, .s." at
each revolution of the cylinder I. .Whilethese means may be somewhat varied, there is provided an operating hand lever 35, the movement of which in one direction,silences the" folding blade 36-and allows the cam roll 3| toioperatethe swinging earn l0 when it is desiredto-form collected products. As shown, this hand lever .is pivoted on a hub 31 on a short shaft 38 supported in a bracket 33suitably secured t the framing of the machine." This. shaft: is; extended as shown 1 in Figure I, and has secured thereto a yoke arm 40 to which is connected an operating rod 4! which slides in a hub guide 42. one. bracket 43 secured to the frame of the. machine. One end .of
1,997,126 I v the shaft 38 is also carried by a hub 43 on the folded off the cylinder at every revolution;
As shown in Figures 6 and 7, the folding blades 36 and 36 are provided which act to fold the product into the bite of folding off rollers 44 and 45 in a well known maner. Two folding blades 36 and 36' and theirmechanism are shown. Both of these bladesoperate when the cylinder is not collecting but only one of them operates when the cylinder is collecting, as will hereinafter be more fully described. 7
As shown in Figure 7 these folding blades are supported in'blade holders 12, 13, which are rotatably mounted in ball bearings 74, 'supported on the ends of-the frame 75 secured to a shaft 41; At one end, each of the blade holders is provided with a, gear 16, and this gear'is in mesh with an intermediate gear 11, supported on studs 18 on the frame 15, before referred to, this intermediate cylinder I is rotated, the gears 11 travel around 7 the gear and drive the gears '58 to rotate the folding blades and causes them to fold products off to the folding rolls. It will be understood that with this construction, the folding blades are kept within the cylinder except at the time whenthey are to fold the product off into the bite of the folding rolls. For a straight run, both folding blades are driven, but for folding a collected product, one of them is silenced by a mechanism which is operablefromoutside the cylinder and which is fully disclosed in a pending application of John R. Tomlin, Serial No. 492,990 filed November 3,- 1930. This'mechanism operates in conjunction with the mechanism by which a change in the operation of the sheet taking pins is effected.
In the construction illustrated, the shaft 41 is hollowed out at one end to receive an actuating rod 8 I-, this rodhaving a sliding movement in the shaft. The outer end of the shaft 41 has an interlocking collar 82, secured thereto and the rod 8| projects beyond the collar and carries anactuator head 83 at the end. This head, as shown in Figure 7, lies in a recess 84 in the control handle 35, which controls the operation of the swinging cam before referredto, The recess 84 of the operating handle has formed in its inner walls, a pair of ears 88, one of which is shown in Figure 7, the other ear being directly behind it on the op posite. side of the rod 8|. When the handle is moved to the left, as shown in Figure 2, these ears engage the head 83 and pull the sliding rod outward. To force or move it inwardly or toward the right, as shown in Figure 'Lthe handle is provided with a cap 89 having a lug 98 which acts to force the rod inwardly into theshaft. The operation of this handle 35' effects the change from the collect to the non-collect opera- .a corresponding clutch ige'emee arate adjustment being reduiredain the mecha nism foroperating the pins or inthe' mechariism for operating the folding -blades. x v 2 1 The push rod'Bl is provided-with '.slot 9 I :which receives one end of a lever 92' pivoted: at 93 in-a yoke bracket 94 secured tothe' frame15,-before referred to.
