To all whom it mdy concern:

Be itlk nown that we, HENRI'F. QDEN- KIROHEN and WILLIAMG. 'CowELL, cltizens of' the United States, residing at New Haven,

gin the -county of New Haven and State of gaOonhecticut, have invented certain newand useful .which the following is a speci cation, refer- Improvements in'Gluing-Machine s, of

ence being had therein to the accompanying -drawings.

Our mventionrelates to new and useful improvements in gluing-machines, and has for its object, among other things, the construction of a device ofthis character which will automatically glue both sides of a paper stri for'a'box-covering.

0 these and other ends our invention consists in "thegluing-machine having certain details of construction and combinations of" parts, as will be hereinafter described, and

' more articularly pointed out in the claims.

Re erring to the drawings in which, like numerals of reference designate like parts in the several figures, Figure 1 is a sjglan'of our improved'glulng-machine complete. Fig. 2 is a side elevation thereof. Fig. 3 is an elevar tion of the yoke' and' adjacent parts. Fig. 4

is an enlarged view of a portion of the scraper. Fig. 5 is a sectional plan view thereof upon line A'B of Fig. 4; and Figs. 6 and 7 are a plan and elevation, res ectively, of a modified form of scraper m ec anism.

In the practice of our lnvention we pro- 1 vide a glulng-roll .1, fixed upon a shaft 2, that is rotatably mounted upon the center pins 3,

. fixed in the lugs 4 on the trough 5, containing the liquid glue. Within the bracket 6 is I secured ar-rod 7, carrying a loosely-mounted arm 8, that is held against endwise movement by the collars 9. Thescraper 10 is adjustably secured within said arm by the screw 11 and has a cylindrical bod portion that, terminates at one end in the lade 12, which is curvedas'shown- Fig. 5, with a notch 13in the under edge thereof.

' In'front and rear of the roll lare the guiderods 14', which are fixed in collars 15., that are slidable u on a-rod 16, 'adjustably secured withina lock'17,"mo'vably mounted upon Specification of Letters Patent.

the rod 7. These guide-rods are adjustable either toward or away from the axis of. the roll or parallel therewith, as desired.

Fixed within the lugs 18, integral with the trough 5, are the center pins 19, that are con nected by the yoke 20. Adjustably secured upon this yoke is a plate 21, carrying the downwardly-projecting guide-rods 22 22.

Between the inner ends of the center-pins'19,

and mounted thereon is the'jguide-roll 23, which is integral with the shaft24. It 1s preferable that this guide-roll should be rotatabl mounted' butin some cases we pre- Parallel'with the shaft 2 and upon one i of the strip, after which it passes under the guide-roll 23 and over the scraper-rod '26,

.within the trough 5 and covers the underside which removes the excess or surplus glue therefrom. Guide-rods14'and 22 are so arranged that the strip will pass over the gluing-r0111 and leave a ortion of the same exposed upon either si e thereof, as shown in Fig. 1. h

The scraper 10 is so adjusted that the blade 12-will lie with a portion thereof uponthe top of the strip and the remaining portion upon the exposed periphery of the gluingroll,- as shown in Fig. 5. Duringthe rotat on of the roll the glue from the exposed portlon thereof will be scraped therefrom b the blade 12 and thrown onto the top of t e. strip 28 b reason of the angle and curv'atureof saidv 4 b ade, andonlya portion thGl'GOfIWlll pass through the'notch. 13, such portion remaining shaped and sized'that it will only permit a predetermined quantity of glue to pass there-' through. The roll 23 is adjusted so as only.

This manner of gluing the 313111) does not distribute the glue as uniformly as by the use of the notch 13, but for certain qualities of glue and work it is preferable.

As hereinbefore described, the blade 12 is held upon top of the roll by gravity; but, if desired, it may be held thereon with a uniform mechanical tension, and in Figs. 6 and 7 I have shown. one form of mechanism by which this may-be accomplished, in which the numeral 29 designates a carrier which is fixed on the rod 7, 30 a swivelblock pivotally mounted upon said carrier, 10 the scraper,

lug

swivel-block 30, and 32 a' coil-spring surrounding said screw and abutting against said in and swivel-block. By the adjustmerit o the threaded rod 31 and spring 32 the blade 12 may be caused to lie upon the paper and roll with the exact pressure.

There are minor changes and alterations that can be made within our invention aside from those herein suggested, and we would therefore have it understood that we do not limit ourselves to the exact construction herein shown and described, but claim all that falls fairly within the spirit and scope of our invention.

Having described our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
