JAMES DIFFENBACHEB, OF BURROWS. PENNSYLVANIA.
GLASS-MACHINE.
Application tiled July l, 1911.
Specification of Letters Patent.
To all whom 'it may concern:
3e it known that. 1, JAMES DIFI-i-INBACHER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Burrows, in the county of McKeanand State of lennsylvania. have invented new and useful Improvements in (ll-ass-lrlachines of which the vfollowing a specification.
The general. objects of the invention are to facilitate the removal of blown hollow glass articles from the apparatus in which they are formed; and to reduce the Costof maintenance of glass blowing apparatm by rendering the glass holding pots detachable therefrom.
Other objects will appear and be better understood from the following de.-;cription taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which,
l igure l is a perspective of the device .a part thereof being broken away and disclosing the burner. Fig. 2 a detail side elevation partly in section of the pedestal also showing the pots in vertical section. Fig. 3 is a detail elevation partly in section of one corner of the pedestal and the frame.
The pedestal 5 has trunniens 6 and 7 bearing on uprights 8 carried by the. base 1).
The earthenware pots 10 for holding the molten glass are detachably secured to the enlarged rectangular shaped opposite ends: 11 of the receptacle in any preferred man-- ner such as by bolts and nuts, the former passing through oval-shaped openings: the pots, whereby, cubical expansion of the said pots is permitted Without dang of breakage. The pots are formed with r it lar chambers 13 and central noses-s it through which extend the vertical side per-- tions: 1.) of blow pipes a, set. into the opposite end portions of the pedestal 5, the horizontal portions of said blow pipes extend ing laterally beyond the pedestal and aoapiied for connection to a tube (not shown} of a suitable blower (not shown).
The skeleton gua rd or cage l7 has its uprights 18 preferably formed of angle iron and connected by means of the cross pieces 1f).- The lower end portions of the uprights having sockets 20 adapted to rcceiue the corner portions 21 of the rootangular-shaped opposite ends ll. The pedestal is turned by a hand wheel 22 on one oi the trunnions such as the trunnion (1 and a curved guide :1 suitably supported such as by uprights 2i arranged to receive the frame 17 as the same moves downwardly.
A friction brake including a drum arranged on one of the trunnions such as the trunnion 6 and a flexible band 2? secured at one end to the support and at opposite end to a lever 28, serves to prevent more ment of the pedestal during the formation of the cylinder or when the frame has been lowered onto the supports 29 for the purpose of removing the frame and mapping oil" the cylinder.
in use 1:, quantity of molten glass is placed into the. upper pot it). Eel'ore the introduced a metal cap or bait. 30 connected with a flexible element 31 is lowered over the opening of the boss 'l-l, to prevent the molten glass from entering the blow pipe at. iiir is then admitted througl'i the blow pipe a and the cap or bait pulled upwardly so as to start the cylinder. The blowing continues until the cylinder is formed Within the frame or guard after which the pedestal is turned bymeansot the hand-wheel 22 as previously described. The skeleton frame or guard l when lowered 8i) ontothe suppwtflii pre entscontatrt between the cylinder and support while the cviinder no eylinder wl n sui'lii-ientiy from the the guard hr onto the it: It.
floor. and cylinder from is rotated until the pot from which t inder hag been mapped is orer the bnrnw whereupon the pet at, the opposite end t the cylinder will be upright and ready in r ceive a charge of molten glass. Dining: formation (it the econd iityliinlcr the r. in the lower pot melted hy the (lame tron: the burner 3&3 so that wh n the sec nd cylindcr i been snapped the lower pot will he in condition to receive a charge of molten glass when turned to upright position. l virtue of the detachable connection between the pots and pedestal either pot. in the event of breakage thereof. may be readily l'tl:i( \'tti and replaced with a. new one. It wit] he understood that the bait or cap is disposed slowly from the bed oi molten gla s an an to leave no opening therein.
Jtlthough l have slHiWii and describe-fl one the embodiment of my invention sp citic structure shown and described 1191* to he particular arrzmgement of the p; 1
sin-x i; will 0b seen that various change wili. 3% made, in time scape of the uppendw chm Without departing from the spirit 0r suci-iming any of the advantages of the invemm What I claim as new is:
1. A giass making machine comprising a base, a burper on the base, upright supports connectefto the base, a pedestal rotatably mounted or; th asupports, pots on the oppoit is L0 be un- I l i 0d tn eitimr end of the padesta]. i is,
mi. r 1:.-,iai ie iizereitin, a skeiei'mi frame. or gum-1i defining-My secured in Zhe pedestai, and a guide for the frame.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in prewnce two witnesses.
