HAR RY W. DIETERT M) /WM ATTO RNEYS July 17, 1951 H. w. DIETERT METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FORMING TEST SPEGIMENS OF MOLDING SAND AND THE LIKE 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Filed May 1, 1950 Patented July 17, 1951 UNITED STATES RA'RENT o F iF'lCE METHOD AND -APPARATIIS or: FORMING TESTsSPECIMENSDF MOEDING SAND A-ND ,THE: LIKE "1 .=The-invention relates to theforming of compacted .--specimens of "molding sand -'or other similar materials -.to".be 'use'd "for.various tests determining characteristics "thereof. "Among the testslto which such. specimens are subjected are green, Idryandhotstrength, permeability and air-set strength, etc. "It has been" the practice in the past to formsaid specimens by ramming the material withaconstant impact energy, but thisdoes not-produce the same effect in different materials .varying in bonding substances and other additives ina particular sand. Good foundry practice requires that molds in .the foundry should be rammed to as nearly as practical a specific mold hardness,.the optimum or desirable mold I hardness being obtained by choosing the one that produces the better castings. However, the various"tests performed on the specimens will difier'in results with different degrees of hardness of the specimen, andsit'is therefore important that the'hardness of the specimen should correspond to the hardness of the mold which is to be'iormed of the 'materials tested.
It is the object of the invention to obtain test specimens whichhave a predetermined Shardness substantially corresponding to the hardness of the mold'to be'formed of the material tested.
It is a' fu'r'ther object of the invention toform specimens of measured hardness wh'ich isjindependent of the "impact 'energy'for forming the same. The invention .therefore consistsffirst, in "the method employed for attaining such results and, second; in the apparatus .by which said method may becarried out.
.In the drawings:
"Fig.1 is .a..side.elevation of the apparatus;
'Figfz is a top plan view thereof;
Fig.3 isa .vertical central section partly in elevation of .the compacting and indicating means and Fig.- 4 is an end-elevation ofa portion of the structure.
As above stated it has been the .practice in the past to form specimens by a constant impact energy such, for instance, asis obtained by-"a plurality of'droppings of a. ram of predetermined weight. Withmy improved process'the hardness of the specimen is measured during'the acompacti-ng-=operationsoathat the impact may '.-be governed to-obtain the *particular hardness pglesired. .Molding sand and other-flowable mat te rlials formed oi. separate partic1es behave Fin some respects/similar :to. a hydraulic -fluidiin that pressureaprilid'. inoneidirection will be transmitted throughlthe materials. in other directions also. However, .such materials differ mm hydraulic fluidslin that the transmitted pressures are not the samefl'in. all directions per 'unit of area. "It is ther.e'f.ore...apparent thatlthe .reaction of. materialstoiimpact. compressivev energy is not always the same and that the hardness or.resistance' to displacement will .also vary.
"To obtain .a predetermined ldegree .o f har'dness the reaction of the -.mate'rial "to Lthe impact energ ismeasured-andindicated, and by progressivlyincrea'sing' thislimpact energy any desired degree of findicated har'dness. may be 6btained.
l lvly improved imetho'd .may' be carried 'oiit'in different forms Lofapparatuafbl'it as illustrated in the drawings, Titis of .the following construction. YA isa' frame including a base po'i'tion B, a commie rising therefrom and having at'it's upper .eridaLlaterally extending portion D also .above 'the base anditerminating I in 'abifurcat'ed portion E. The furcations of'theiportioriEezitend upward. above lthe,.'.porti'on' -D .and are .bored in axial alignmentwi'th each other-to receiVeshaftS F ijourn'aled Lin: antiefri'ction bearings Ih'e shafts'TF. are respectively secured to a pair or lever arms'l-l which extend substantiallfhorb zontally and have. adjustably mounted 'on'thei'r .outer .end. portions. a weight-10f" predetermined mass.

L, the ,f clips M.may, be. removed andithe tube. telescoped lover thepost to remove fit. from 'thecompact'd specimen. The compacting meansisacplunger-N'having at its lower end a head Nflfittmgwithinltm .tube-.L,--and. at. its upper ven'dengagingmea'ns 3 for pressing it downward. As specifically illustrated downward pressure is produced by a threaded nut having radially extending actuating arms 0 and engaging a correspondingly threaded upper end portion N of the plunger N, said nut reacting against hearings on the lever arms H. More in detail the lever arms H have mounted thereon rollers H having their axes in alignment with each other and ofiset from the axis of the fulcrum shafts F. These rollers project inward from the lever arms and are adapted to engage an annular groove 0 in the nut 0. Thus if the nut is turned in a direction to move the plunger downward it will react against the rollers H, which will initially be held stationary by the weight I, forcing said arms to rest upon the stop shaft ..J. Thisstationary position will be maintained until the reactive force against the lever arms exceeds the downward thrust thereon produced by the weight I,but if a higher pressure is developed the arms H'will be lifted. Thus the construction is such as to limit the maximum force which can be applied by the plunger against-the material to be compacted to that determined by the weight on the lever and which may be varied by shifting the weight to different positions.
To determine the hardness of the material compacted within the tube L by the plunger N, I have provided means for measuring the reaction of the material while subjected to compressive stress, which is indicative of hardness. This means is mounted within the plunger N and has an indicator which is at all times visible to the operator. As shown it comprises a small head P which is within a central recess'in the plunger N to'form a portion of the surface bearing against the material within the tube L. The plunger N has a lower hollow portion N and a tubular portion N of larger diameter secured to the portion N by a head N The upper threaded portion N of the plunger is connected by a head N to the upper end of the tubular portion N 'Within'the tubular portion N is a gauge P of any suitable construction, which is operated from the head P through the medium of a plunger rod P The gauge is visible through a window in the tube and is calibrated in units of hardness.
Consequently, when downward pressure is ap- I plied by the head N to the material within the tube L, the portion of said material beneath 'the head P will react to relatively raise said head and, through the plunger P and mech- "anism operated thereby, will turn the index hand P to indicate the hardness. If the specimen being compacted is to be used for determining qualities of the molding material when used in a mold of predetermined hardness, then the compression of such material may be continued until the gauge indicates the same degree of hardness. However, when this is once determined then the apparatus may be adjusted to automatically limit the pressure that can be applied through the plunger N to a corresponding amount. This is effected by adjusting the weight I on the lever arms H so that when the desired exactly horizontal.
' After the specimen has been-compacted down- 4 ward pressure of the plunger N is relieved, after which the tube L may be moved downward telescoping the same over the post K and leaving the specimen free on the top of said post from which it may be removed.
