PATENT OEEICE WILLIAM ROSS, OF MONTREAL, CANADA. Y.
PUNCH.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N0. 787,052, dated April I1, 1905.
i l Application filed June 19, 1903. Serial Nol 162,288.
To .all whom, t may concern.:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM Ross, of the city of Montreal, Province of Quebec, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Punches and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
This invention relates particularly to powerpunches for use in punching heavy ware; and it has for its object to enable a punching-tool of any length to loe used, the stroke of the punch to be varied, and to improve the means for stripping the work being punched from the tool. i l l The invention consists of the following, features: A variable connection between the toolcarrier and its actuating part ,lmeans for automaticallylocking a 'stripper in a position to hold ythe work upon the work-support while the lication, in which like symbols indicate the same parts, and wherein- Figure 1 is a side elevation of a powerpunch constructed accordingto my invention. Fig. 2 is a front elevation with the face-plate removed. Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional view taken on line A A, Fig. 1, and illustrating particularly the combined work retainer and stripper; and Fig. 4L' is a longitudinal vertical sectional view taken on line B B, Fig. 2.
The frame of my improved punch comprises a work-supporting portion d and a guiding-head e for the reciprocating tool-carrier.,
The reciprocal tool-carrier slides in the guiding-head e and consists of an open rectangular framef, having the lower end of its opening contracted to vform a receptacle g for a bearing-block L and a series of fillers c' between the bearing-block and the bottom of the opening in the frame. A plate j, having a downwardly-projecting interiorly-threaded shortsleeve 7c, is bolted'to the under side of the lower end of the carrier-frame, and a bolt -Z, with a head m and its end screw-threaded,
is inserted `head foremost into the short sleeve lr., while a perforated screw-threaded plug n., with a hexagonal head, is fitted over the bolt and screwed into the sleeve, thereby holding said bolt against-displacement'. The toolp, which may be of any length and is formed as usual with a head g, is held rigidly upon the end of this boltby a perforated interiorly screw-threaded cap n, fitted over `the tool and screwed upon the end of the bolt. The upper end of the frame is formed with a tapped opening in which a screw-bolt s is threaded and through which it projects downwardly toward the bearing-block L. This carrier-frame is caused to reciprocate in its guiding-head 'by a lever t, fulcrumed, as at u, to the frame of the machine and having one end in the form of a fork o, between the prongs 'of which a wrist-pin w is rigidly carried. A
pitman-bar fc is pivoted between its ends upon the wrist-pin, and the upper end thereof has a block y resting-slidably thereon and formed with a socket which receives the lower end of the screw-bolt s, while the lower end of this pitman-bar is formed to roll in a socket in the topof the bearing-block L. When the working tool is being set in place, the fillerblocks are removed, thus allowing the carrierframe to be raised independent of the pitmanbar until the working end of the tool is,when the machine is at rest, at its. proper distance from the work-support. Sufficient fillers are then inserted to make the block /L bear tightly Vupon the lower end of the pitman-bar, and .the screw-bolt isthen screwed down until it bears tightly, through its socket, upon the top of the pitman-loar. A variable rigid connection is thereby provided between the lever end and the punching-tool. The opposite end of the lever is operatively connected to any suitable power device or motor (not shown)v for reciprocatingit. The motor I prefer to use is of the type disclosed in a'napplication led by me March 28, 1903, under Serial No. 150,081.
The work is stripped from the punchingtool by a variable stripper, which is normally in a position abovethe working end of the tool when the machine Vis at rest, said stripper consisting of a forked lever 50, having a ICO rise 51 midway of its length upon its upper side. This lever has laterally-projecting pins 52, guided in slots 48 in a hanging bracket 53, bolted to the machine-frame and formed to present a shoulder 54 a short distance above the lever, the latter being fulcrumed at its rear end to a swinging screw-threaded bolt 55 by a flanged tapped collar 47, threaded upon the bolt. A bell-crank lever 56, fulcrumed to a lug 57 upon the machine-frame, has a wedge 58 pivotally connected to the end of one arm thereof and adapted to be drawn between the upper side of the stripper and the shoulder 54,. while a yielding link is pivotally connected atits lower end to the arm 60 of the bell-crank lever, and the other end thereof extends upwardly and is pivotally connected to one end of a lever-arm 61, fulcrumed at its opposite end to the frame of the machine, while a link 62 connects the swinging end of this lever-arm to the main operating-lever. When the lever is depressed, the wedge is drawn into place and jams the stripper down tightly upon the work being punched, and when the lever rises the wedge is forced out, thus releasing the stripper and allowing a pair of retractile helical springs 63, connected at one end to the machine-frame and at their other ends to the lateral pin projections upon the stripper.
It will be seen that in action the pitman-bar w is to all intents and purposes a part of the lever end which carries it, while the block /L constitutes a bearing member, and the block y and screw s constitute an adjustable bearing member, while the series of fillers form an integer in action, by means of which elements the lever imparts variable reciprocal move- 'ment to the tool-carrier.
