FREDERICK A. PEOK, OF PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND.
MACHINE FOR RED-UCING WIRE.
' SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 428,572, dated May 20, 1890.
Application led August 5 1889.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it knownthat I, FREDERICK A. PECK, a citizen of the United States, residing at Providence, in the State of Rhode Island, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Machines for Reducing Wire, of which the following is a specification.
My invention'relates to that class of wirereducing machines in which the .reducingdies are operated by rapid contact withbeaters 5 and it consists in the improved construction and arrangements of parts whereby the machine is made adapted for a greater range of work than heretofore.
Figure l represents a plan 'view of my improved machine. vation of the same. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section. Figs. 4, 5, and 6 are detail views.
In the accompanying drawings, A is the bedplate of the machine, and B a bearing-standard secured to the forward end of the bed A and provided with the friction-cap B', and at the rear end of the bed A is secured the bearing-standard O, provided with the f riction-cap C. Within the bearing d of the standard B is placed the beater-holding head D, which is also loosely held upon the hollow arbor E, the said arbor being supported at its rearward end in the bearing b of the' standard C, and upon the arbor E is secured` the pulley F. The head D is also provided with a pulley D', and the pulleys D and F are each provided with a raised rim d, having upon its periphery a screw thread or worm e, and also provided with the annular groove f. The worm e of the pulley F engages with a worm-gear G,
which is secured upon an upright shaft h, held by a sliding bar I, and having at its lower end a slotted crank-arm I-I, provided with an adjustable crank-pin z', the lower end of the said f.
crank-pin being held in the fixed groove j. The sliding bar I is supported in a horizontal position by means of the standards g g, and is provided with an attached arm J, which enters the groove f of the pulley, so that when the sliding bar I is moved in either direction by the action of the crank-pin in the Xed groove j the pulley F and arbor E will be correspondingly moved.
The worm e of the pulley D engages with the worm-gear G which is secured to an upright shaft h and held by the sliding bar I-,
Fig. 2 represents a side ele- Serial No. 319,806. (No model.)
arm II', provided with an adjustable crankpin 71, the lower end of the said crank-pin being held in the fixed groove j. The sliding bar I is supported in a horizontal -position by means of the standards g g', and is provided with an attached arm J which enters the groove f of the pulley D', so that when the sliding bar I is moved in either direction by the action of the crank-pin fr" in the fixed groove j the pulley D and the head D will be correspondingly moved upon the arbor E and within the bearing d of the standard. The cylindrical rollers K K, which are preferably employed for the beaters, are made of hardened steel, and are inserted into a conically-inclined series of holes m, made in the end of the head D, and are retained in their places for operation and rotation by means of the annular plate 7c, which is secured to the head D by means of the screws a.
Upon the forward end of the hollow arbor E is secured the hollow head E', which is provided with radial openings o o, adapted to receive the reducing-dies M M M M, which are retained in the openings o by means of the annular plate 7c', which is secured to the head E by means of the screw n', and when 'the dies are thus inclosed in the openings o by means of the plate 7c they are adapted to be thrown outward by means of springs p, inserted in the rear portion of the head E and project-ing forward into the opening q at the rear end of the die, las shown in the section, Fig. 5, and the dies M M are provided with the inclined faces d2, which are adapted to engage with the correspondingly-inclined engaging-surface Z22 of the beaters K.
Upon the sliding rod L, which is supported bythe standards B and O,is secured the arm N, provided at its upper end with a steel bushand havingat its lower end a slotted cranking r, for guiding the wire to the reel, and a by means of the standards B and C, is secured IOO the arm Q, which by means of a projecting arm is also supported by and slides upon the sliding rod L, and at the upper end of the arm Q are placed the grooved rolls R R, for feeding the wire through the machine. Upon the shaft of the lower feeding-roll R is secured the ratchet-wheel S, and upon the same shaft is placed the atchet-arm T, to which the ratchet-catch u is pivoted, the said catch being held in contact with the ratchet-wheel. by means of the spring n', and the ratchet-arm T is held in its backward position against its adj listing-screw by means of the spring y. Upon the sliding rod O is also secured the arm l, the upper end of which is provided with the roller t, held in the groove f of the pulley F, so that the arm P, rod O, arm Q, and feeding-rolls R R will be made to partake of the reciprocating movement of the die-head E. In the operation of the machine, whenever it is desired to reduce the size of round wire the beaterholding head D is to be clamped and held stationary by screwing down the cap B and then upon revolving the pulley F the arbor E and die-head Ewill revolve therewith, and the action of the worm e of the pulley F upon the worm-gear G will cause the revolution of the crank ll, and the consequent reciprocation of the die-head E', within the beater-head D, and as the diehead E is carried onward the inclined position of the beaters K K will allow the dies to open outward to receive a new length of wire, which length of wire will be reduced in size as the head E is being drawn back within the head D by the continued action ofthe crank Il, the dies M M being carried nearer and nearer to each other until the head E has reached its inner limit, and then the continued action ol the crank ll will again carry the head E forward, causing the dies to open, so as to receive another length of wire, and when the head E is moving forward the same movement will be transmitted to the arm Q, which carries the feeding-rolls R R', and thus the wire being operated upon will partake of the reciprocating movement of the head E', and when the arm Q nears the limit of it-s outward movement the ratchet-arm 'll will strike the end of the screw .5' upon the arm N, thus causing the proper feeding movement ot the rollsR R. \Vhenever it is vdesired to operate upon square or angular wire, then the arbor E is to be clamped in its proper fixed position by means of the cap C, and the head D loosened by unscrewing the cap B. Then upon revolving the head D by means of the pulley D the dies M M will be operated at a iixed position with reference to the wire, and the action of the worm c upon the worm-gear G will cause the revolution of the crank Il', and the consequent reciprocation of the beater-head D and the inclined beaters K K, whereby at the outward movement ot the head D the dies M M will be brought gradually nearer to each other, and upon the reverse movement of the head D they will again separate from each other to allow the feeding of the wire Vforward for another operation of the dies, and the required feeding movement ot the rolls R R will be effected by means of the arm N, which partakes of the reciprocating movement oi the head D, and the adjusting-screw s' of which is made to strike the ratchet-arm T.
lleretofore in machines of this class the beaters have been set with their engagingfaces parallel to the axis of the beater-holding head, all such machines being restricted in their range of work, and not adapted for self-feeding; but by arranging the engagingfaces of the beaters at an angle with the axis of the beater-holding head I am enabled by means of a reciprocating movement imparted to either of the heads to gradually close the dies upon the wire while the beating action is going on, and to open the dies to receive another length of wire, which is fed forward, thus adapting the machine for automatic action and for a greater range of work than heretofore, and the inclination of the engaging-face of the beaters,as speciiied,constitutes the gist of my invention, and is the foundation principle of the machine.
The inventions which are herein shown and described and not claimed, but which are shown, described, and claimed in my application for Letters Patent, Serial No. .BMJ-fil, liled August 7, 1889, are disclailned in this application.
l claim as my inventionl. The head provided with the reducingdies, in combination with the concentric head provided with the inclined beaters, and means 'for revolving the beater-holding head around the die-holding head, substantially as described.
