IMPROVED APPARATUS FOR ROLLING RAILS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 68,936, dated September 17, 1867.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HUGH BAINES, of Manchester, in the county of Lancashire, England, have invented new andA useful Improvements in Rolling-Machines; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable those skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference beinghad to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.
The present invention relates more particularly to a rolling-machineinvented by me, and secured by a grant of Letters Patent of the United States bearing date the-11th day of December, A. D. 1866.
The invention consists in a novel applica tion and arrangement of rollers, t0 he now described, reference being had to the accompanyving plate of drawings, in which- Figure l is a plan or top view of the rollinginachine with the present improvements applied thereto, Fig. 2, a transverse vertical section taken in the plane of the line .r m, Fig. 1; Figs. 3 and 4, vertical sections taken, respectively, in the planes of the lines y y and z z, Fig. 1. f
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A A in the drawings represents the bed or foundation plate of the machine, having parallel uprights B B, between which two rollers, C C, are placed, the one above the other, and each turning in suitable blocks or bosses D, arranged in the uprights B. Bot-h rollers C C are made hollow7 through their entire length from end to end. Y
H H, gear-wheels at each end of rollers C, upon the inside of the uprights B, the gear- .wheels at the saine end of each roller interloekin g with each other. These gear-wheels H H are keyed to the rollers, so as to turn in conjunction therewith, but yet allow of their easy detachment from the same.
To the upper side of each of the uprights B is hunga weighted lever, g g, that rests through a pin, O, upon the journal-box or boss of the upper roller, C, the object of which weighted' levers is to hold the upper roller firmly down to its work, the weight upon each lever being susceptible of adjustment according to the .amount of pressure desired.
The arrangement of the parts above described, as well as areversible gearing in connection with the lower roller of the .two rollers C C, is the same as that described in the schedule annexed to the Letters Patent hereinbefore referred to, and therefore need no further or particular description herein.
The upper roller C of the two rollersG C is provided with a raised ange or roller, P,
the periphery or edge of which is grooved l suitably to roll the upper or bearing surface of a railroad-rail from a suitable metal bar when passed between itand the raisedflan'ge or roller Q, to the lower roller of the two rollers C, which roller Q is fiat upon and around its periphery or edge.
R R and S S, four rollers, carried in boxes i T and U, respectively. The one T `of these` boxes is fixed, and .the other arranged` so as to be moved or slid upon the fixed bearings V, toward or away fromv the other box, when operated upon, by properly turning the calnlever cam W in the proper direction therefor.
These rollers R B and S S are forrolling the sides to a railroad-rail, and upon their periph cries are formed accordingly, `as' is apparent from an inspection of the Figs. 3 and 4 of the in motion, at the same time bringing the sideV rollers into position through the cam-lever, forging the metal to the required-size.
In cases where the metal is heated from one end or all over, the cam-lever and fiat place ou roller or flange I? are not employed.
I claim as new and desire to secureby Letters Patent-- The rollers P, Q, B, and S, in combination with each other, .when constructed and arranged together substantially as and for the purpose described. The above specification of lny invention signed by me this 3d day of July, 1867.
