ANDREW H. BALLAGH, OF MACON, MISSOURI, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-THIRD TO JAMES W. DUNNAWAY, OF SAME PLACE.
BALlNG-PRESS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 277,439, dated May 15, 1883.
Application filed September 8,1882. (No model.) i
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ANDEEwH. BALLAGH, of Macon, in the county of Macon and State of Missouri, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Baling Presses, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My improvements relate to'pressesfor baling hay and cotton.
The invention consists of certain novel fea- IO tures of the mechanism for operating the follower and in other parts of the press, as here. inafter described and claimed.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification,
in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure l is a side view of my improved press. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the same. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the press. Fig.
4 is an end view. Fig. 5 is a perspective view,
partly sectional, of the follower.
Ais the baling-chamber. B is the follower. O is the feed-aperture, and D D are strain-bars extending from end to end of the press-frame.
2 5 These bars are connected at one end to a crossbar, a, and at the other end they are connected by forked braces b b with the cheek-pieces d at the mouth of the bailing-chamber, whereby any strain upon the bars D tends to draw the 0 cheek-pieces d together and resist the expansive force of the bale as it is discharged, and so'that the bale is held with sufficient pressure to serve as a resistance to the bale that is being compressed.
5 The follower B is formed with a cutter, e,
and to the follower is connected one bar, f, of a pair of toggle-bars, the other bar f being connected to the cross-bar a at the end of the press, and the two toggle-bars fare jointed 40 together. In order to prevent lateral movement of the bars f, I prefer to form the portion connected with the cross-rod a of two bars,
as shown in Figs. 1 and 4..
E is the operating-lever of the press, the
5 same being a sweep of suitable length, pivoted at g to a suitable support at the side of the press.' This sweep-lever is provided with a T- bar, h, at its inner end, in which is a doubleinclined slot, In this slot is a slide-pin, k,
which is connected by links l l with the jointpin of the toggle-bars f.
In order to strengthen the toggle-bars f, they are covered by tubes or sleeves f. The crossrod a is strengthened by a sleeve, a, in the same manner. The ends of the slot iin the T 53 end of the lever E are formed with side extensions, t", for receiving the pin it and retaining the same until the bale is pressed. At the upper and under sides of the press-box are the hooks or holders a. These are pivoted so that 6c they may moye in and out of slots in the pressboX, and are weighted to move outward by gravity, those at the upper side being formed to extend beyond the pivot, so as to obtain the action of the weight in the proper direction. 6'
In the operation of the press, when the sweep E is turned in a direction parallel with the press-frame, the follower or beater B is thereby drawn past the opening, so thatthe mate rial can be placed withinthe baling-chainber. Then, by turning the sweep E, the follower is moved outward and the. material compressed. When-the sweep reaches the reverse position, with its T end at right angles to the pressframe, the pin it is released by the strain from the recess at the end. of the slot 1', and the pin moves to the other end of .the slot, thereby drawing back the follower to the position for feeding the material. The material is again compressed by reversing the movements of the sweep. \Nhen sufiicient material has been compressed to form a bale, separating-boards are inserted, and the operation continued as before, the compressed bale serving as a resistance, and the baling-chamber is of such 8 length that it will always contain one or more pressed bales. The bands and ties are applied to the completed bale while the next bale is being compressed.
In a continuous press, such as herein described, the elasticity-of the compressed material will be sufficient to return the follower to its first position, as described; but in a chamber-press or a press wherein a single bale is formed, the lever E will have to be moved 5 in one direction for returning the follower, and
in that case it will be necessary that the recesses a" in the end of the slot 1' be formed at both sides, so as to catch the pin it and hold 7 it for drawing the follower back. I01:
The cutter e on the follower B is for the purpose ofcutting oft any material projecting into the feed-opening that might bind the follower, and it also insures the formation of a smooth finish on the bale, and dispenses with the usual feed-door. This is an important feature of the press.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. In bailing-presses, thelongitudinal straining-bars D, provided with forks b I), connecting to the cheek-pieces at the mouth of the press, substantially as shown and described.
2; In baling presses, the sweep E, having a T end formed with the slot 2', connected by links I to the toggle-bars of the follower, substantially as described, for operation as set forth. v
3. In balingpresses, the combination of the operating-links Z and thepin 70 with the T- ended sweep E, formed with the slot i, having a recess, 6, at each end, substantially as shown 20 and described.
4. The combination of the tubesf with the jointed toggle-barsf, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
5. The sliding follower-or beater B, provided 2 5 with a cutter, e, substantially as described.
