ELECTRICAL VIBRATING DEVICE.

Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Oct. 10, 1911.

Application filed September 7, 1910. Serial No. 580,799.

T 0 all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HARRY N. CUPP, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Mars, in the county of Butler and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Electrical Vibrating Devices, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.

This invention relates to an electrical vibrating device and has for its object. to provide means in a manner as hereinafter set forth for vibrating or oscillating hammers for use in riveting sieves and for any other purpose for which the device is found applicable.

- of the invention, but it is to be understood that changes, variations and modifications can be resorted to which come within the scope of the claims hereunto appended.

In describing the invention in detail, reference is had to the accompanying drawing wherein like reference characters denote corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which Figure 1 is a plan view of an electrical vibrating device in accordance with this invention, and Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 .are details of the circuit closing elements.

Referring to the drawing, 25 and 26 denote a pair of solenoids arranged in longitudinal alinement and 27 denotes a core com- .mon to both solenoids and which is provided with a member 28 for actuating or oscillating an article or for agitating or oscillatinga means for operating the article.

The reference character 29 denotes a con.- ductor leading from a source of electrical energy and which is connected by a branch conductor 30 to a contact post 31. Arranged opposite the contact post 31 isa contact post 32 and leading from said post 32 is a condoctor 33 which is connected to the solenoid 26 and leading from the conductor 33 is a branch conductor 34 which is connected to the solenoid 25. Leading from the solenoid 26 to a contact post 35 is a branch conductor 36 and leading from the solenoid 25 to a contact post 37'is a. branch conductor 38. The contact posts 32, 35 and 37 are carried by a support 39 and arranged opposite to said support 39 and carrying the post 31 is a support 40. Secured to the support 40 and extending in a plane to one side of the plane in which the post 35 extends is a contact post 41 and secured to the support. 40 and extending in a plane to one side of the plane in which the post 37 extends is a contact post 42. y

The reference character 43 denotes a c0nductor leading to the source of electrical energy and which is connected by a branch conductor 44 t0 the post 41, and leading from the branch conductor 44 tothe post 42 is a conductor 45.

The reference character 46 denotes a rotatable element which is provided with a disk 47 of conducting material and which is normally in contact with the posts 31 and 32 whereby the said posts are electrically connected together. Arranged upon the rotatable member 46 is a disk 48 of conducting material which is permanent-1y in contact with the post 35 and separated from the disk 47 by a disk 49 of insulation. Arranged upon the member 46 and abutting against the disk 48 is a disk 50 formed of insulation and provided with a series of contact members 51 which are disposed at right angles with respect to each other and projecting from the periphery of the disk 50 and adapted to intermittently contact with the post 41. The contact members 51 are in permanent engagement with the disk 48. Arranged upon the member 46 and abutting against the disk 50 and permanently in convtact with the post 37 is a disk 52 of conducting material and carried by the member 46 and abuttingagainst thedisk 52 is a. disk'53 of insulation and which is provided with a series of contact members 54 which are alternately disposed with respect to the contact members 51 when the disk 53 is mounted upon the member 46. The members 54 project from the periphery of-the disk 53 and are adapted to intermittently engage the post 42. The member 46 is rotated in any suitable manner and the various disks carried thereby are fixed onsaid member and are held in abutting engagement with each other. The contact members 54 are in permanent engagement with the contact disk 52.

The circuit for the solenoid 25 is as follows : conductors 29 and 30, post 31, disk 47, post 32, conductor. 33, conductor 34, conductor 38, post 37, disk 52', one of the contacts 54, post 42, conductors 45 and 44 and conductor 43 to source of electrical energy. The circuit for the solenoid 26 is as follows :- eonductors 29 and 30, post 31, disk 47, post 32, conductor 33, conductor 36, post 35, disk 48, one of the contacts 51,-post 41, conductor 44 and conductor 43 to source of electrical energy.

The contacts 51 and 54 are so disposed with respect to each other that the solenoids 25 and 26 will be alternately energized, whereby the core 27 will be reciprocated and the member 28 utilized for the purpose of oscillating an article.

52 and 54 are what may be termed a circuit making and breaking device for alternately energizing and deenergizing the sole.- noids 25 and 26, the said operation of the solenoids reciprocating the cores as is obvious.

What I claim is 1. An electrical vibrating device comprising a pair of solenoids, a reciprocating core common to both of said solenoids, means carried by the core for, imparting power to an element, a rotatable element, a pair of supports, a series of contact posts carried by each of the supports, circuit wire connections between one of said series of posts and said solenoids, circuit wire connections between the other of said series of-posts and the source of electrical energy, conducting disksfixed to said rotatable element and engaging that series which are connected with the solenoid, disks of insulation abutting against said conducting disks and fixed to said rotatable element, and a series of contacts carried by certain of the disks of'insulation and adapted to successively engage certain of the posts of that series of posts which are connected Withthe source of electrical energy, the remaining post of that series of posts which are connected with the electrical supply engaged by one of said conducting disks.

2. An electrical vibrating device comprising a pair of solenoids, a reciprocating core common to both of said solenoids, means carried by the'core for imparting power to an element, a rotatable element, a series of thereagainst, contact posts permanently in engagement with the disks of conducting material, circuit wire connections between said posts and said solenoids, a contact post permanently inengagement with one of said disks of conducting material, circuit wire connections between said last mentioned post and a'source of electrical energy, a series of spaced contacts carried by two of said disks of insulation and abutting against two of said conducting disks, the contacts of one series on one disk being alternately disposed with respect to the contacts of the series on the other disk, a pair of contact posts, one adapted to be successively engaged by the contacts of one series and the other by the contacts of the other series, and circuit wire connections between the said pair of contacts and the source of electrical energy.

3. An electrical vibrating device comprising a pair of solenoids, a reciprocating core common to both of said solenoids, means, carried by the core for nnpartmg power to an element, a rotatable element, a pair of supports, a series of contact posts carried by each of the supports, circuit wire connections between one of said series of posts and said solenoids, circuit wire connections between the other of said series of posts and the source of electrical energy, conducting disks fixed to said rotatable element and engaging that series which are connected with the solenoid, disks of insulation abutting against said conducting disks and fixed to said rotatable element, and a series of contacts carried by certain of the disks of insulation and adapted to successively engage certain of the posts of that series of posts which are connected with the source-of electrical energy, the remaining post of that series of posts which are connected with the electrical supply engaged by one of said conducting disks, the series of contacts carried by one disk of insulation being alternately disposed with respect to the series of contacts carried by the other disk of insulation. In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
