PLUG-TOBACCO MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 355,409, dated January 4, 1887. Application filed December 14, 1885. Serial No. 185.631. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JAY NOBLE, of the city of St. Louis, in the State of Missouri, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Plug-Tobacco Machines, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, and in which v Figure l is a side elevation of my improved machine. Fig. 2 is a front end view, part in vertical section. Fig. 3 is a top or plan view. Fig. 4 is a horizontal section taken on line 4 4, Fig. 2. Figs. 5 and 6 are vertical longitudinal sections taken on line 5 6, Fig. 2, Fig. 5 showing the charger in its rear or normal position and the plunger in its elevated position, and Fig. 6 showing these parts in the opposite positions.
My invention relates to an improved machine for forming tobacco into plugs by means of hydraulic pressure; and it consists in features of novelty hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claims.
Referring to the drawings, A represents the frame of the machine.
B represents the charger, C the plunger, D the mold, E the movable bottom of the mold, F the table of the machine, G an engine for operating the plunger and the movable bottom of the mold, and H an engine for operating the charger.
G represents the steam or water chest of the engine G, and G2 the valve located therein.
H represents the steam or water chest of the engine H, and H the valve located therein.
The plunger depends from a cross head or beam, I, connected by means of vertical-rods J to a cross-beam, K, beneath the mold. The rods have nuts L and M, which respectively hold the crossheads I and K.fro1n vertical movement thereon.
The piston-rod H of the engine H is connected at its outer end to the charger B by means of a vertical post, N, and rods N, as
shown in Figs. 3 and 5, the rods N being preferably secured in the charger, as shown, and held from turning by means of a jam-nut, N The post N has a movement upon the rods N between nuts N and N*. When it comes against the nuts N it causes the charger to move forward, and when it comes against the nuts N it causes the charger to recede.
H represents the supply-pipe of the engine H. When the valve H is in the position shown in Fig. 6, it opens the port H, admitopened and the motor power is allowed to enter the cylinder in front of the piston and force the piston rearward to the position shown in Fig. 5, thus causing the charger to recede.
The valve-stem H is connected by means of a crank, H, to a rock-shaft, H provided with a hand-lever, H By moving the lever in either direction the valve may be operated by hand. It may be operated automatically at the proper time to cause the charger to recede by connecting another lever, H, on the shaft H to a lever, H, on a rock-shaft, H, by means of a link, H The shaft H is pro vided with an arm, H", that extends toward the engine G, and is engaged (as the piston of the engine moves upward) by an arm, H thereon, which has a projecting end, H that extends under the free end of the arm H, as shown. The charger is thus caused to move automatically at the proper time, so that it is only necessary to use the lever H to start the charger forward.
The charger is composed of side pieces, a stationary end piece, B, and a movable rear piece, B The movable rear piece, B is connected to the engine H, as described,and when it has moved forward a certain distance, compressing the tobacco, the entire charger will be forced forward until it comes against stops 1?. I .do not claim anythingnovel in this form of the charger, knowing it to be old, and it will be unnecessary for me to describe it further.
XVhen the charger has reached its forward position and the tobacco therein is brought over the mold, the plunger 0 descends from the position shown in Fig. 5 to that shown in Fig. 6, this movement being caused by the piston G of the engine G being forced from the position shown in Fig. 5 to that shown in Fig.
ICC)
' and the downward and upward movement of the piston thus causes the downward and upward movement of the plunger.
When the valve G of the engine G is moved from the position shown in Fig. 5 to that shown in Fig. 6, the port G is opened,admitting the access of the motor power above the piston G and when the valve is moved in the opposite direction a port,G, is opened, admitting the access of the motor power beneath thepiston. The former movement of the valve is caused by means of a lever, G connected to the rock-shaft H, the shaft being connected to the valve stem G by means ofan arm, G". The valve is automatically moved in the opposite direction to cause the plunger to descend by the forward movement of the piston of engine H, and is engaged by means of an arm or trip, H, on the front end of the piston-rod H or on the post end,which comes against a short arm, G on a rock-shaft, G, connected by means of a lever, G, and a link, G to the upper end of the valve-stem G of the valve G Thus, when the plunger has been raised to the position shown in Fig. 5 and the charger completes its forward movement, the trip H comes against this arm G and causes the valve G to be reversed, ad mitting the motor power above the piston G and causing the piston, and consequently the plunger, to descend. It is thus unnecessary to operate the lever G when the'plunger is tobe lowered, the engine G being automatically reversed by the charger. Just before the plunger has completed its upward movement pins G, inserted in the beam K and secured by jam-nuts G come against the movable bottom E of the mold and lift it to the position shown in Fig. 5, which ejects the plug from the mold, and the parts are so adjusted that the bottom is held in this position until the charger comes forward and shoves the plug from over the mold, and when the plunger 0 descends the bottom of the mold is forced down to its lower position on its supports E. To close the opening B in the front end,B,for filling the charger, I provide a gate, Q, hinged by pin Q to the front end over the opening. When the charger recedes, the plug opens the gate to the position indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 5, to permit the front end to the plug.
I claim as my inventionl. The combination, with the engines, of
pass over the devices for connecting the engines together, which consist of the trip 11", arm H H, short arm G lever G", link G ,-rockshaft H having arms G and H". rock-shaft H, having lever H and crank H lever H, and link H substantially as set forth.
2. The combination, with a charger, of a plunger, 0, cross-head I, supporting the plunger, cross-beam K, rods J, connecting the crosshead and cross-beam, engine G, consisting of a cylinder having ports G G, chest G, piston G, having rod G on which the plunger-frame is supported, and valve G, having stem G", and rock-shaft H, having lever G and arm G, substantially as set forth.
3. The combination, with a charger, of the cross-head I, having plunger 0, the rods J, cross-beam K, mold D, supports E, movable mold-bottom E, pins G, secur'edto the crossbeam, engine G,havingpiston-rod G",on which the cross-beam is supported, and the rock-shaft H having lever G and arm G, connected to the valve-stem of the engine, substantially as set forth.
4. The combination of a charger having post N, an engine, H, connected to the post, plungerframe, engine G, for raising and lowering the plunger-frame, trip H", rock-shaft G, having short-arm G and lever G and link G connecting the lever and valve-stem of the plunger-engine, substantially as set forth.
5. The combination of acharger having post N, an engine, H, connected to the post, plun ger-frame having arm H, formed with projecting end H rock-shaft H having arms H" G and lever H, link H and rock-shaft H, having lever H and crank H substantially as set forth.
6. The combination, with the engines, of the devices for connecting the engines together by their main valves, which consist of the rock-shaft H", having lever H and crank H rock-shaft H having arm G", lever H, and link H, substantially as shown and de scribed.
7. The combination, with the engines, of the trip H arm H H, and the devices, substantially as shown and described, for connecting the engines together, so that the action on one engine depends on the action of the other engine.
JAY NOBLE.
