PRINTING-MACHiNE.
EPECIFIGATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 642,131, dated January 30, 1900.
Application filed May 29, 1894. Serial No. 512,912. (No model.)
To (LIZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES A. KEYES, a citizen of the United States of America, residing in the city, county, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Printing-Machines, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates generally to printing-machines, and more particularly to that class which are especially adapted to the production of sales-slips and the like.
The present improvements have particular reference to certain novel features of construction and operation of such machines, as will be fully hereinafter set forth.
In order to aid a complete understanding of the invention, a detailed description thereof will now be given, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
In said drawings, Figure 1 is a side elevation of a machine embodying the improve ments. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same, one of the inking devices being shown in a moved position. Figs. 3, 3, and 3 are detail views of the web tension device. Fig. 4 is a sectional elevation of the adjustable sleeve of the web feed-roll-driving means. Fig. 5 isa sectional side elevation of the number-head and its immediate connections. Fig. 6 is a sectional elevation of the numbering-head on the'line 6 6 of Fig. 7,1ookingin the direction of the arrow. Fig. 7 is a vertical section of the numbering-head. Figs. 8 and 9 are details of the yielding tooth and coacting carryingtooth. Fig. 10 is a sectional elevation of a portion of the numbering-head, showing the movable type of the tens-wheel. Figs. 11 and 12 are vertical sectional elevations of the same. Fig. 13 shows by side and end views the cam-carrying annulus, and Fig. 14: like views of the movable type. Fig. 15 is a sectional elevation of the inking device, and Fig. 16 is a sectional detail of the means for step by step rotating the ink-fountain roll.
The parts of the machine are supported in a suitable framework A, providing at one end bearings for a rolled web of paperB and at suitable places bearings for an impressioncylinder C, a numbering-head D, a printingroll E, inking devices F G for the numbering-head and printing-roll, respectively, a
longitudinal slitter or slitters or perforators H, a transverse severing device I, and a receiving-table K for the printed sheets.
The rolled web Bis supported in brackets 20, extending from the framework, and the web therefrom is led between a pair of feed-rolls 21 22, (see dotted lines, Fig. 1,) the one, 22, being driven and the other resting by its weight on the web passing between it and the roll 22. The speed of feed of the roller 22 may be varied in any suitable manner. As shown, the shaft of the roll 22 carries a disk 23, which is rotated by frictional contact ofa positively-rotated disk 24, carried at one end of a longitudinally and slightly inclined sleeve 25, said sleeve or certain parts thereof being longitudinally adjustable to move the disk 24 toward or away from the center of the disk 23. This sleeve is supported near one end by a bracket 26 and beyond its other end by a bracket 27, through the medium (see Fig. 4) of a screw-threaded sleeve 28, the bracket 27 serving as a nut for the same. This end of the sleeve 25 fits within an enlargement of the threaded sleeve 28 and is provided with a flange, against which there abuts a loose collar 29, surrounding the sleeve 25,which is connected to the threaded sleeve 28 by a setscrew 30. By turning the threaded sleeve 28 by hand in one or the other direction the sleeve 25 is moved longitudinally and the disk 24. is moved toward or from the axis of the disk 23, which thereupon varies the speed of the sleeve 25. Within this sleeve 25 there is mounted alongitudinal driving-shaft 31, that is connected to the sleeve by a pin 32 entering a slot in the sleeve, as in Fig. 4, and the forward end of this shaft- 31 carries a bevel- 9o pinion 32, which meshes with and is driven by a bevel-Wheel 33,fast on the main driving shaft 34 of the machine, (see Fig. 2,) and thus the Web of paper is fed more or less positively, according to the weight of the roll 21. From 5 these feed-rolls 21 22 the web is led through a tension device, consisting of a pair of rolls 35, mounted in a frame 36, adapted to be turned bodily about the axis of the supporting-shaft 37 through the medium of a hand- :00 wheel 38, with which engages a loclcpawl 39 to hold said Wheel and the frame in its adjusted positions. The web passes partially around the foremost roll 35 and thence backward around the other roll 35 and forward again around a lead-roller 40 in contact with the impression-cylinder O and around said cylinder in contact with the numbering devices of the head D and then in contact with the printing-cylinder E to the slitters H and transverse severing device I for delivery.
The present machine is adapted to complete four sales-slips on each revolution of the printing-cylinder E, and hence there will be provided four numbering-heads D and four type plates or blocks in the printing. cylinder.
Each numbering-head consists of a pair of disks 41 42, mounted loosely on a hub 43, which hub embraces the rotating shaft 44 and partakes of its motion and is capable, withthe disks,ofsliding bodily longitudinally of said shaft to vary its position of the head with respect to the web being acted upon, so that numerals may be applied-to the web at any desired point widthwise thereof. The numbering-heads may be moved to any desired position alongthe rotating shaft 44 in any suitablemauner,as shown. Each head is embraced by a fork 45, (see Figs. 5-and 7,) that is carried by-a collar 46, adjustable on a fixed rod 47. .The disk 41 is provided with a toothed periphery which meshes with a driving toothed wheel 48 of a greater number of teeth that is also bodily adjustable on its shaft 49 to correspond to the adjusted position of the numbering-head. The shafts 44 and 49 are geared together to run in unison from the gear on the cylinder 0 through an intermediate 51.
The impression-cylinder is geared to the main driving-shaft 34. The latter drives the shaft 49 through a gear-wheel thereon and an intermediate gear 51. )Vheel 48 on shaft 49 meshes with the teeth on disk 41, mounted loosely on shaft 44, and the shafts 44 and 49 are geared together to run in unison by gears 41 and 48*. (Not fully shown in the drawings, but which will be understood.) The shaft44 has a slower rate of speed than the disks,for the reason that there are more teeth on wheel 48 than there are on the gear-wheel on the same shaft 49,which is geared to the shaft 44.
The disks 41 42 carry a plurality of sets of numbering-wheels, each set composed of a units-wheel 18 and a tens-wheel 19, that are mounted to rotate on a spindle 50, supported by the disks. There are five sets of such wheels shown adapted to print in succession numbers on the passing web-in the present instance such numbers running from l to 50and repeat. The units-wheel 18 of each set,bearing the figures O, l, to 9, is connected rigidly to a toothed wheel 17, that is in constant mesh with a gear 16, formed on the hub 43, and hence as the disks, with the wheels 18 19 and toothed wheel 17, rotate faster than the shaft 44 and. the hub 43 it results that the toothed wheel 17 and unit's-wheel 18 are rotated on their axes sufficient in each complete revolution of the disks to turn the units-wheel one-tenth,and thus bring another figure in position to be impressed on the passing web, all of which is now well known. Alongside of the wheel 17 there is a disk 15, having a single notch with which engages a lock-pinion 15 of the well-known Geneva movement. The disk is formed with two teeth 14 on one of its sides to engage the teeth of the pinion 15 at the time the notch is in position to permit a step rotation of said pinion. Betweenthese two teeth 14 there is mounted a radially-yielding tooth 13, held to duty by a spring 12, which when the teeth of the pinion 15 are engaging with the two teeth exerts sufficient friction upon the pinion 15 that it is steadied in its movement and the tens-wheel19,which, as usual, is moved a step at this time, is moved firmly and without shake into position. (See Figs. 8and 9.) The tens-Wheel 19 has teeth 19 on one side of its periphery which are in mesh with a pinion 15 on the end of the shaft carrying the pinion 15 and this connection causes the movement of the tens-wheel from the units-wheel. (See Fig. 7 of the drawings.)
In order that the working of the mechanism for operating the tens-wheel 19 from the unitswheel 18 may be clearly understood, it should be remembered that the shaft carrying the wheel 15 has two other pinions, one, 15", which meshes with the gear 19 on the tenswheel19, and the other,15, 15 being the locking-pinion for the disk 15.
In the additions shown in Figs. 10 to 14,inelusive, and which may be applied without change to the structure shown in Figs. 5 to 9, means are provided by controlling the figure 5 of the tens-wheel, so that the device will print 50 with greater facility and with less complication of parts. Thus the tens-wheel 19 has fixed numbers running from 1 to 4 and repeat, and is provided with two movable type 10, hearing the figure 5, which is projected in line with the 0 onthe units-wheel 18 to print 50. The movable type 10 is embraced by an annulus 11, projecting from the units-wheel 18,said annulus having a cylindrical cam or cam-shaped projection 9,which at the proper time in the rotation of the units-wheel projects the movable type 10 into the plane of impression as seen in Figs. 10 and 12, the opposite or duplicate movable type being then in its inward or idle position. As each set of wheels 18 19 after making an impression on the web has to make .a complete revolution with the numberinghead before making another impression, it will be seen that plenty of time is given for the movable type 10 to have been withdrawn from the plane of impression, so that a blank space will be provided'on the left side of the units-numerals in printing from one to nine, the next step of the'tens-wheel being the 1 in position with the O of the units-wheel to print 10, and so on.
As the numbering-heads D revolve the nu:
inerals on the units and tens wheels successively pass in contact with the inking device F, which device, beingin all respects the same as the device G, will alone be described.
Each inking device is supported by a frame 52, mounted on and carried by a vertical pivot 53, which permits the inking device to be swung bodily from the position shown in Fig. 1 to a position away from the coacting parts of the machine, as indicated in Fig. 2, and thus give access to the number-heads and to the printing-roll E, as the case may be. The frame is held in fixed position by a removable pin 67. The inking device (see Fig. 15) consists of a fountain-roll 5% within an ink-fountain 55, a vibrating ductor-roll 56, applying ink from the fountain-roll to one of the longitudinally-movable distributing-rolls 57, which convey and distribute the ink onto a larger roll 58, and a number of ink-rolls 59, that finally carry ink from the roll 58 to the inking-roll 60, which is in position to present ink to the numerals of the numbering-heads D or to the printing-roll E, as the case may be.
The fountain-roll carries on its end, secured thereto, a ratchet 61, (see Fig. 16,) engaged by a pawl 62, pivoted to an oscillating disk 63, loose on the fountain-roll shaft. The disk is oscillating from the shaft of the ink-roll 58 through a connecting-rod 64, attached to an eccentric-pin on the shaft of said roll. (See Fig. 1.) The ductor-roll 56 is in an arm of a bell-crank 65, that is hung loosely on the shaft of the roll 58, the other arm being connected by a rod 66 with the oscillating disk 63 to receive motion therefrom.
The two longitudinally-vibrating rolls 57 are vibrated through earns 68, fixed at their ends, engaging with rolls 69, projecting from the inking-device frame 52. In the preferred form the shafts of the two Vibrating rolls are carried by a yoke 70, that is centrally pivoted to the frame 52 in an open bearing. (See Fig. 1.)
The several inking-rollers of the device F receive motion from the impressioncylinder C through the intermediate gear 51 and another gear 71. The rollers of the inking device G likewise receive motion from the printing-roll E through an intermediate gear 72.
The web after receiving the impressions from the numbering-heads D passes upward with the impression-cylinder O and between it and the printing-cylinder E to receive the impression from the matter thereon, which may be in the form of a stereotype or rubber form suitably secured to said printing-roll. From this roll the printed web passes downward over a support 73 and between the longitudinal slitters H and their coacting surfaces h, by which the web is divided longitudinally into a number of st1'ips-four, as shown-three slitters being used. After being thus divided longitudinally the web portions or strips pass between feed-rolls 74: to the transverse severing device I, which consists of a pair of rotating blades 75, which coact with rotating cutting-surfaces 7 6 in the usual manner to sever the web portions into sheets, which sheets pass over a guide 77 between a series of disks 78 and a roll 79 onto the receiving-table K, a series of spring-fingers 80 preventing the displacement of the delivered sheets.
The longitudinal slitters H and their coacting surfaces h are geared together, the feed-rolls 74 are similarly geared together, and the blades 75 and coacting surfaces 76 of the transverse severing device I are likewise geared together, all to rotate in unison, the slitters H receiving motion from the impression-cylinder 0 through an intermediate gear 81 and the slitters, feed-rolls, and transverse cutters being connected by intermediate gears 82 83.
What is claimed is- 1. In a printing-machine, the combination of a driven shaft, a numbering-head consisting of a pair of-disks mounted upon a sleeve, splined to said shaft and movable longitudinally thereon, and a longitudinally-adjustable guide or yoke for said head to hold it in position on the driven shaft, said yoke consisting of two rigid arms, one on each side of the head, as set forth.
