HAY-PRESS.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 742,056, dated October 20, 1903. Application filed May 20, 1903. S e rial'll'q. l58,050. (No model.)
To all it may concern:
of the United States, residing at Chattahoochee, in the county of Fulton and State of Georgia, have invented certain new and use-' ful Improvements in Hay-Presses, of which the following is 'a specification.
This invention has relationto apparatus for forming hay, straw, cotton, and like material into bales and subjecting same to a predetermined compression'regulable by inclin ing the walls of the baling-chamber at their outer ends to a greater or less extent.
The invention relates to the type of presses embodying a duplex baling-chamber whereby loss of time is obviated incident to charg-- ing the baling-chamber and tying the com pleted bales.
The invention deals more particularly with the operating mechanism and with the genera-l construction of the press, whereby superior results are attained and the capabilities enhanced.
For a full description ofthe invention and the merits thereof and also to acquire a knowledge of the details of construction of the means for effecting the result reference is to be had to the following description and drawings hereto attached.
While the essential and characteristic fea-- tures of the invention are susceptible of modiinvention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which--- v V,
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a press em: bodying the invention. Fig. 2 is a top plan Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the cam or wiper for actuating the plunger. Fig.4 is a vertical central longitudinal section of the baling-chamber on a larger scale. Fig. 5 is a horizontal section on the line X X of Fig. 4:. Fig. 6 is a transverse section on the line YY of Fig. 4. Fig. 7 is a detail perspective view of the'cam or wiper, inner end portion of the sweep, outer endof the rod connected with the plunger, and adjunctive parts cooperating therewith, same being on a larger scale. Fig. 8 is a section on the line Z Z of Fig. 4 looking to the left, showing the baling-chamber in end view. Fig. 9 is a central longitudinalsection of the parts illustrated in Fig. 7.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the drawings by the same reference characters.
. The baling-chamber is double ended and is provided at an intermediate point with an opening 1, through which the material to be compressed or baled is fed when the'press is in operation. The baling-compartments at each end of the chamber or box taper toward their outer or delivery ends in order to subject the bale to lateral compression to provide the necessary resistance to enable the press to operate continuously. The side walls of the box or baling chamber are provided with lon- Y and the vertical bars 5, interposed between them, are grooved in their outer side to receive tie-rods 4 and are slightly shorter than the usual space between the upperand lower cross-bars to admit of drawing said bars together when it is required to increase the inclination of the upper and lower Walls of the baling-chamber near their outer. ends. Restraining-springs 6are applied to opposite walls of the baling-chamber, and their terminal portions incline inward and form stops 7, against which either the charge or a board 8 is adapted to rest to prevent rebound when the plunger-moves in the oppositedirection to compress the material supplied to the baling-chamber through opening 1.
. and is adapted to reciprocate in the central portion of the baling-chamber; across opening 1, alternately compressing the material at each end of the baling-chamber. Side bars 10 are connected to a cross-bar 11, fromwhich bar 12 projects, and is connected at its outer end to spaced bars 13. Bar 12 is providedv with rollers 14, which are arranged to travel uponguide or support 15 in line with or form ing a continuation of the bottom of the balingchamber. Plunger 9 is likewise provided at its lower edge with rollers 14; to reduce the friction to the smallest amount possible. Notches 16 are formed in'opposite edges of plunger 9 to admit of same clearing the ends of springs 6 without re-pressing the same upon the return stroke of the plunger. Irons 17 connect plunger 9 with side bars 10, the ends of irons 17, attached to plunger 9, curving'in opposite directions, as shown most clearly in Fig. 6, so as to stiffen and brace the plunger. The spaced bars 13 constitute a guide-head at the outer end of bar 12, and this head is directed in its rectilinear movements by rollers 1S, journaled upon pins extended upward from support 15". Tappet-wheels 19 are applied to the guide-head at diagonally opposite points and cooperate with cam or wiper 20 to effect reciprocation of plunger 9. Pairs of spaced lugs 21 project upward from cam or wiper 20 to receive between them sweep 22, which is attached to the cam by fastening 23, said lugs 21 bracing the sweep laterally and preventing turning thereof upon the single fastening 23. The cam or wiper 20 is provided with spindle 24, which is mounted in bearings of plates 25 and 26, secured to the upper and lower sides of support 15. The central portion of each of the plates 25 and 26 is provided with a boss vertically apertured to receive spindle 24, so as to provide a substantial and extended bearing therefor. Plates 25 and 2b are clamped to the support 15 by fastenings 27, which also constitute the journals upon which rollers 18 are mounted.
In the operation of the press a horse is hitched to the outer end of sweep 22 in the accustomed way or power may be applied thereto in any manner to efiect rotation of cam or wiper 20, which alternately engaging with tappet-wheels 19 effect a rectilinear reciprocating movement of the plunger. When the plunger 9 is moving toward one end of the baling-chamber to compress the material fed thereto through opening 1, material is supplied to the chamber upon the opposite side of the plunger to be compressed upon the return stroke thereof, thereby admitting of the press operating continuously. When starting the press, a transverse bar 28 is secured at each end of the baling-chamber to sustain the bale until compressed to the requisite degree. These bars are removed after the initial bale has been formed. It is to be understood that the baling-compartments are of a length to receive a bale and one or more charges, so as to provide ample time for binding and securing the halo before its ejectment from the press. As each charge is com pressed it is carried beyond the shouldered ends of springs 6 and is supported thereby and prevented from following the plunger upon its return stroke. By inclining the walls of the baling-compartments at their delivery ends more or less the resistance to the discharge of the bale may be varied, thereby providing for compressing the bale to a greater or less degree, according to the required density.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is- 1. In a press, an open-ended baling-chamber provided with a central opening for the feed of material, frames encircling the end portions of the baling-chamber, each frame consisting of vertical and cross bars and tierods, the latter connecting the end portions of the cross-bars, and adapted to compress the walls of the baling-chamber at their delivery ends,and the vertical bars being shorter than the distance between the said cross-bars and filling the space between the tie-rods and the proximal sides of the baling-chamber to brace the latter, and a plunger adapted to reciprocate within the baling-chamber to alternately compress the material in the end baling-compartments, substantially as set forth.
2. In a press, and in combination with the baling-chamber, a plunger and bar connected with the plungerand provided with a guidehead comprising spaced parts, guide-rollers arranged to operate in the space formed between the separated parts of the guide-head, tappet-rollers applied to said guide-head at diagonally opposite points, and a cam or Wiper arranged to cooperate with said tappetrollers to effect a reciprocating movement of the plunger, substantially as set forth.
3. In combination, an open-ended balingchamber having a central feed-opening and inclined walls at the outer ends of the balingcompartments, restraining-springs located within the balingchamber, a plunger, side bars attached to opposite ends of the plunger, a cross-bar connecting the outer ends of said side bars, a plunger-bar connected to said cross-bar and provided with a guide-head comprising spaced parts, guide-rollers operating in the space formed between said spaced parts,tappet-rollers applied to the guide-head at diagonally opposite points, a cam for cooperation with the tappet-rollers, and a sweep attached to the said cam, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
