A suitable torni of machine for carrying i out thesevarious operations is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l 1s. a side elevation; Fig. 2 'is a planvlew; and Fig. 3 an end elevation of suoli machine, parts et these three ligures being shownin section. Fig. 4 is a vertical section on line r2-'06, Fig. Q; Fig. 5 is a plan view on an enlarged scale of part of the machine, partly in section; Fig. 6 is a vertical section Online y, y', Fig. 5; and Fig. 7 -is a'vertical section on line 2'-, e, Fig. 5;Fig. 8 is a sectional view showing a suitable means forlrolling out the bottom edge ofthe receptac e.
In the arrangement shown a casing 1, of
circular form, is mounted on a suitable framework 2, and a'loose ring-3, provided with both internal and external teeth 4 and 5, is disposed in such casing and driven by means o t the external teeth' 5 of ring-3, pinion 6 and bevel gearing 7 and 8, trom main driving shaft 9, on which are asft and loose Disposed over the ring 3' and in frictional contact therewith, so 'f as. to be capable of being driven thereby, is a circular plate or turret 11, in which a series ot openings are tor-med vfor the 'pockets 12, into4 which the vessels to be operated on are placed. These pockets 12 are in theoperation of the ma chineto be moved step by step to bring the vessels contained therein into position to be operated on by the diii'erent appliances hereinafter referred to, a suitable method ofei'ecting' this being to arrange turret 11 asv above stated in frictional contact withV the ',-positively driven continuously rotatingring 34 so as to be driven thereby whenk tree", and
to apply a' brake to bring suchturret 11 to 'a stop at the required positions. Tof effect this stopping of the turret the means shown may be employed, consisting in a brake band-14 surrounding the lower part lvthereof and which is brought into operation by means of a cam 15 on aspindle 16, which 'latter' also carries a pinion 17 meshing with teeth 1 8 formed on the-periphery of the turret 11,
the latter of which is capable 'of being connected to its spindle by mea-ns of a friction clutch 163. The result of this arrangement is that when the turret. is free to turn, the spring of clutch 163 will grip chain wheel 162 on its spindle and thus drive chain wheel 161 (and through the latter spindle 16 pinion 19 and turret 11) by means of chain 160, but when the turret is stopped the friction clutch will permit the spindle of pinion 162 to rotate without operating the latter.
As before stated, the ring 3 is'continuously driven, this motion in addition to imparting the intermittent movement to turret 11 as described, also imparting (whenever the turret is either stationary or moving at a slower speed than ring 3) a rotary movement to the pockets 12 mounted inthe holes in such turret, each of such pockets being for this purpose provided with teeth 29 engaging the internal teeth 4 o'f ring 3. Ball bearings 30 are preferably disposed around each of the pockets so that theyl can rotate freely in relation to the turret in which they are mounted. Such pockets are also each formed with a collar 31 which by oontact with a bearing rinoI 32 carried inv ring 3 serve to retain the latter in its proper position in the casing .1. Such casing 1 is preferably provided with al cover 33 serving to prevent anypart of the operators or their clothing ctnning in contact- Vwith the rotating parts mounted therein.
'lhe various operations to bo carried out on the vessels in course of n'iantifz'ieture are effected by mechanisms which must necessarily be disposed some above and some below the casing containing the rotating pockets in which such yvessels are placed.
lt is therefore necessary to provide means for lowering or raising these mechanisms into their operative positions when required, and for this purpose same are mounted on a. pair of spiders or frames 34, 35, the former carrying the apparatus which acts fromabove and the latter that from below the' which another lever 39 is also secured.'
Lever 3S) by means ot` connecting link 40 and levers 4l, 42, rocks a shaft' 43 on which is a rack wheel 44 gearing with teeth formed on spindles 45, 46, on which the spiders 34, 35, are respectively mounted, the rotation of such rack wheel causing spindle 45 to move downward and spindle 46 to move upward carrying the spindles with them, and thus bringing the mechanisms carried by the latter to their operative positions with respect to the vessels in course of manufacture. To insure that the spiders can only be operated when the pockets 12 containing the vessels are in their proper positions, the two levers 41 and 42 are employed, the boss of the former being loose on shaft 43 while the boss of the latter is keyed to but capable of sliding on such shaft. its sliding movenient is ellected by a fork carried by lever 21, which enters a groove 47 in the boss or hub of lever 42 and so transmits the movement of such lever 21 to the hub of lever 42.
The conncrting link 40 between lever 39 and levers 41 and 42 has a projection 43 which is capable of entering a recess in the outer end of lever 42 when thc latter is shifted along shaft 43 toward lever 41, and therefore in effect keys lever 41 also to the shaft, so that when in this position the rocking movement will be imparted (by vnfieans ,125
ofthe levers 41 and 42 from lever 39, shaft 38, lever 37 and cam to the shaft 43 on which rack wheel 44 is mounted. As, howconcentric portion of the periphery of vratchet wheel 1,9 until such pawl enters the single notch in the; latter when the parts are *ein position for' t. :,e'spiders to operate, it follows that projection 48 cannot engage lever 42 until such pawl enters such notch,
and. that therefore the spiders can only be i operated when this takes place and so permits lever 21 to return to its normal position Y andby so doing to slide lever 42 along shaft- 43 until projection L:t8 engages with the recess-in such lever, when the rc. King .movement will be imparted to. shaft .3 and the spiders operated.
c As hereinbefore stated, the machine il! 1strated in the drawings 'is designed to carry out a series of operations on the vessel` in course of formatlon, but while suitable arrangements of mechanism for this purpose are illustrated, it is to be understood that the invention is `not confined to such ar-.
rangements, v nor does the special form of these mechanisms constitute an essential part of the present invention. It must also be understood that it is not desired to limit the scope of the invention to the employment of .the essential features hereinafter 'de'- scrlbed 1n connection with mechanisms for carrylng out the special operations hereinafter described, as some of such operationsmay, in certain cases, beomitted, while in some' cases it may bclfound desirable to carry out further operations not hereinafter referred 'to on the vessels.
The operations effected by a machine constructed'l as shown by'the accompanying drawings, will now be briefly set out, the
- first of .these `being feeding the body of the vessel, which-is effected at the point a, Fig.v 2, and consists simply in the operator dropping a conical paper tube into the pocket 12 which at this moment is situated at this point. At the same time, the operator also places a bottom piece on the upper end of a tube whichat this time will be projecting a i up from the casing at point c.
position therein the arm 82 in-which ltube upper and lower edges of the-yessehgthe ro. tation of whichk causes thel rotation of the; e 'fpaster in its supportvand so' eects the'past-- 81 lis supported -isturned slightly sidewise cn pivot 83,.by means of cam 84 (Fig. 5)
coming in contact with roller 85,y and the paster-is thus brought into contact with the ing all around the vessel without unduefricf tion thereon.
F ceding the ottomrpz'jece nto the paper Mba-As above stated',"they operatorplaces the bottom pieces on the upper end of a tube at the point c, such tube being shown 'at `86 in Figs. 1 and 4, and being supporte-d by the lower spider As the -movement imfl parted tol the spider itself would not be sufficient to" enable the upper end of the trfoe to-project above the casingul when in it;y raised positiomwhile when in thelow.
erec. position s fh upper end would be clear ofthe underside of theturret ll-'to permit 'he latter to make. its step by step', movement the following means are employed to increase the length of movement of the tube: On the sleeve 8T carried by spider l35 a pinion 88 is mounted, same gearing -with teeth formed on the adjacent side of tube 86 and also with a rack 89 mounted on 'the framework 2.* As the sleeve 8T moves up or down, it will therefore be seen that pin-l ion 88 will be rotated by its engagement with the stationary rack 89, and this rotation will by its engagement with the teeth vformed on tube 86 cause the latter to move approximately twice as far as the sleeve 87, in which it is mounted.
To insure the bottom piece being conveyed to -its proper position by means of the tube 86 it is preferred-to .cause a suction kthrough the latter, and this mayl be effected by forming `the lower end of sleeve`87. as a piston 90 working in a cylincler,91 secured to the lower end of tube 86 and so partait-- ing of the extramovement imparted to the latter. so that as the cylinder movesmore rapidly than the piston therein a suction will be caused through the tube`86, the ,interior of which yis connected to-the k space below the piston, and the bottom piece will therefore be held firmly on the upper end of the tube, the suction however 'being broken by the contact ofthe bottom piece with the sides of the paper tubewhen it arrives at its proper position therein'. u
The turning in of the bottom edge o f the paper tube to inclose the downwardly depending flange of the bottom piece is effectvedk at the polnt d, the means employed v`for this purpose being shown in Fig, 'el and comprising a head 92 carried by the lower spider andv formed with a groove/into4 which' the lower end of the paper tube entersfras the spider is raised. A head 93 mount'edon a spindle 94 capable of sliding in the top spider Si is so arranged'that it comes into contact with the upper edge of tlrevessel before such ltop spider has completedits downward movement, such spindle 9i being vacted upon by one or more weights 95,:vvhicli enable it to resist the upward Vmovement of the head 92 carried by lower spider353.c The vessel is thus held down in the die contained in pocket 12 and thereforecontinues to rotate, and this rotary movement with its lower edge in the groove in the advancing but nonrotating head 92 coperates with such advancing movement of the head to turn the lower edge of the vessel inward, which is completed on the con'ipletion of the movement of the spiders. A
[fall/ng out l/w bottom, @flyer-After the bottom edge of t-he vessel has been thus turned in it is rolled out to shapetheparts and cause them to adhere iirmly together. This operation is carried out at the pointI e, F 2, by mechanism such as that shown in -Fig. 8, but as this mechanism is substantially similar to that used for rolling out the upperl edge of the vessel, which will be hereinafter described, a detailed description thereof is unnecessary.
Turning in he 'appel' crlgefilhe vessel then proceeds to the point. f, Fig. 2, where the upper edge thereof is turned in. Mechanism for this purpose is shown in Fig. 7, and comprises a head 00 mounted on a rod 97 carijcd by the upper spider' 3ft, such head being formed with a groove into which the. upper edge of the vessel enters as the spider 34: is lowered. To enable` the upper edge of the vessel to be turned in level with the upper surface of the die contained in /pocket 12, a split conical head 0S surrounded by a ring acted upon by a spring 00 conlined in a eyliiulrical sleeve 100 carried by the lower spider 35 comes in contact with the lower edge of the vessel before the lower spider has completed its inoven'ient, and lift-s it slightly from the die. lhe continued movement of the spider brings the upper edge of the conical head 9S in contact. `with the lower surface of the die, and the consequent downward pressure of the conical surface ol. head 9S. on the surrounding ring causes such headto grip the lower edge of the vessel; as such head 08 is in cont-act with the -die the rotary motion of the latter will be communicated to the head and so to the ves` sel, this movement as in the ease of the turningin of the lower edge cooperating with the advancing but non-rotating movement of head 06 to e'liect the desired inward turning of the upper edge of the vessel.
Rolling out the apici* edge-The next operation to be effected is the rolling out of the turned inv upper edge of the vessel to the desired coniiguration, which in the preferred form comprises a groove in the inner surface of the vessel to receive a lid, a shoulder immediately below such groove to prevent the lid being inserted too far, and a projection or enlargement on the outer surface to prevent the vessels jamming when a number are nested together. This operation is effected at the point g, Fig. 2, by means comprising a head 101 carried by a spindle 102 in a sleeve 103 which is mounted eccentrically in relation thereto in a sleeve 104 mounted in the upper spider .311. Normally the head 101 enters the upper end of the vessel in a central position with regard thereto, but means (hereinafter described) are provided for turning eccentric sleeve 103 in sleeve 10e, which has the effect of bringing the head 101 into Contact with one side of the vessel, when the rotation of the latter will rotate such head and these combined movements will insure that every portion of the upper edge of the vessel is acted u on ,and rolled to the desired form, the sur ace ot' head 101 and the cooperating surface of pocket 12 being (although. not`shoWn) of the necessary conliguration for this purpose. During the operation-a head 105 carried by a rod 100 mounted in the lower spider 35 retains the vessel in position by acting on the lower edge thereof. y
Referring again to the rolling out of the lower edge of the vessel, it will be readily umlerstood that, as shown in Fig. 8, mechanism similar to that just described may be employed, the operating head 101 being, however, in this case carried by the lower spider and the butler head 105 by the upper spider.
llamlay the lower parl of the vessel The lower part of the vessel is next tobe treated with paraffin wax or other material for sterilizing same and rendering it waterproof, this operation taking place at the point Il, Fig. 2, andbeing effected by the mechanism shown in Fig. 3. This 1nechanism comprises a pump 10i7 carried'by the conntartingrod pivoted to the sector 57 herematter referred to, the plunger of the pump being caused, as such sector moves 1n one up through the head 10S (which may be formed of perforated metal and covered with felt or the like) into contact With the lower part of the vessel being operated upon, and on the return movement of such sector 57 to draw back into the pump any surplus of the coating material. The latter Amay be kept in a lluid state by means of Bunsen burners or other suitable heating appliances.
])clzrerz/.-'l`he various operations for effecting which the machine illustrated is designed having now been completed, the vessel is ready for delivery from the machine, such delivery taking place at the point l, l? 2. For this purpose a tube 120 capa- `ble of sliding in a sleeve 121 formed on the lower spider 35 is employed, as shown in Fig. Ll-, in combination with an arranfrement similar to that hereinbefore described in connection with the feeding of the bottom of the arrangement shown in Fig.' 6 and lower spider 35 4and operated by means of a direction, to force the wax or other material .pieces tothe machine, suchearrangement in this case comprising a pinion 122 carried by spider and gearing both Vwith a fixed rack 123r and With teeth formed on the adjacent side of tube 120, the result of this arrangement being that such tube 120 will be caused to have the movement imparted to it by pinion 122 in addition to that of ,the spider 35. Thismovement is preferably employed as in the case of the feeding of the'bottom pieces e kto producea suction through tube 120, i which When the upper endf comes in contact with the bottom of the completed vessel will .gripsuch vessel and lift itout` of thepocket 12,' this upward movement being" continued funtil the vessel hasA passed between, the upper ends of two inwardly iiiclined fingers 1:21 acted-uponbysprings '125, such lingers passl ing under `the shoulder formed on' the outer 'surface of the vessel at the completiony of such upward movement and thus breaking ".ithe suction and preventing the vessel passback when the tube 120 returns. A tube ing . 126 is arranged-to guide the vessels asthey 25;
are delivered one by one to the fingers 124, andA when a sufficient number have'been accumulated and thus nestedtogether they loosely -end of which lever is toothedsector 53, meshing with a bevel pintherein.
l y be removed by hand.
The turning of the eccentric sleeve 103 of the top rolling mechanism, and also of the correspondingsleeve of the bottom rolling mechanism, is eected 'by the following means:-On shaft 24,.0n Which gear Wheel 2 6 and cam 36 are mounted, is also secured a cam 49 which by roller 50 operates' bell crank lever 51 pivoted at- 52, and the other formed with a beveled ion 54 on central shaft 55', which by these means has a vreciprocating rotary motion imparted to it. Toothed sectors 56,57 are mounted on shaft 55 and are caused to move up and down with the spiders 3 4 and 35; and therefore to constantly remain in engagement with toothed wheels 58,59, which are mounted respectively on the eccentric spindles of the top rolling mechanism and the bottom rollingvmechanism. In each of these toothed Wheels is a concentric slot (Fig. 5) and headed bolts 61 are arranged in such slots and can by being tightened up be secured in any desired positions Vhen the toothed Wheel carrying l the I bolts 61 is actuated, such bolts come `in contact with one or the other arm of a tum' bler lever 62' keyed to the eccentric spindle, and it will thus be seen that by suitably adjusting the position of the bolts 61 in' slotv i' 60 the amount of rotary'movement impartedv degree of eccentricity to the eccentric sleeve and consequently the therebyl imparted to the spindle carrying the'operating head can be vregulated as desired.
As shown in Fig. 5, the boss by which the ving head for inwardly" receptacle inwardly,
toothed` sector 56 is vmounted 'ont' shaft 55 carries the cam 84 which causes the arm 82 carrying the pasting mechanism to turn slightly into contact with the side of the -ieceptacle 'to be pasted.
As above stated, the movement of'toothed sector 57 is utilized to operate the pump 107 by which the Waxing of the lower part of the vessel is effected, a connecting rod being pivoted to such sector and also to the piston rod or plunger of the pump.
