0 J BEASLEY HAY AND COTTON PRESS.
No. 104,922. Patented July 5, 1870.
gunman oiled gist-122i CHARLES J. BEASLEY, OF PETERS BURG, VIRGINIA.
Letters Patent No. 104,922, dated July 5', 1870.
IMPROVEMENT m HAY AND COTTON-PRESSES.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, CHARLES J. BEASLE'Y, of le tersburg, in the county of Dinwiddie and State of Virginia, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Cotton and Hay-Presses; and I do'hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being bad to the accompanyingdrawing forming part oft-his specification.
This'invention relates to improvements in powerpresses for hay, cotton, and other like articles, and consists in an arrangement of jointed arms, cords, and pulleys, whereby the follower is made to move and the cords mainly, and at a quick motion at the beginning, and by the lifting action of the arms, and at a slower motion, and more powerfully, at the latter part of the movement, when the resistance increases,
It also consists in an'improved arrangement of the belt-tightener for being automatically raised to let the belt slip, and stop the motion, when the follower is raised to the required height; also, for action as a brake, to regulate the fallof the follower, all as hereinafter more. fully specified.
Figure l is a side elevation of in y improved press, with some parts broken out, to show the interior arrangement, and
Figure 2 is a transverse sectional elevation, taken on the line a: a; of fig. 1. I
'Similar letters of reference indicate eorrespomiing parts.
A, represents long arms, jointed to the top of the vertical case B, at G, where they are provided with grooved rollers or pulleys, DJ They hang downward therefrom, one on each of two opposite sides of the case, and at their lower ends they have other shorter arms, E, jointed to them at F, where they also have grooved rollers or pulleys, G. These shorter arms are jointed, at their other ends, to the follower H, one at each end and at these .joints they have pulleys, I. Z
The operating-cords K are attached to the long arms Aat L, about the length of the shortarl'us above the lower ends, and pass over the pulleys I; thence, over D and G, to the winding-shaft M, where their other ends are attached to the drums N 0, respectively.
This shaft is placed transversely under the bottom of the case, and has a large belt-wheel, l, at one end, over which the driving-belt Q, shown in dotted lines, works, to wind up the cords, the said belt being driven by any competent power. 7
R is the belt-tightening lever, jourilaledon the shaft inside the wheel, and-having a roller, 5,111- ranged on a stud, to be brought down on-the face of the bolt by tnrningthe levcr to the left, as shown in fig. 1. I g
'l is an arm, attached to lever R, projecting under the'case A, and attached to a plate, u,journaled on the shaft 'M and having a bar or rod, V, attached to it, which projects through one side of the case toward and in the same plane with one of the sets of arms A 1 e i This rod will be thrust forward in this'direction when the belt-tightener is turned down to cause the belt to act, and the end will be struck by the arm F when drawn up to the vertical position, and forced in, raising the roller S ofl" thebclt, allowing the latter to slip, and the machine to stop. p
The turning of the drums by the belt will wind up the ropes, and raise the upper ends of the arms F, and the follower, mainly by the cord alone at the beginning of the oporation,-and until the short arms are past the angle of forty-live 'dcgrees, after which the force on the follower is mainly delivered by the end thrust of the short, arms, due to the action of the lower ends being swung inward on the long arms A, the said swinging action, caused by the cords, being the only labor expended bytho cords, 01' mainly so',at this time. It will be seen that, during the latter part of the movement of the follower, very great force is expended upon it without increase or undue strain upon the cords.
The weight of the follower will cause it torun back again when the belt is free, and the hand-lever 1iand roller S may be used-to control the said backward movement, by pressing on the belt, and causing it to check the motion of the wheel and drums in letting oil the cords.
Having thus described my invention,
I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Iatent 1. The combination, with the press-case andfollower, of the arms A F, cords is, wim'ling drums, and the guiding-pulleys for the cords, all arranged and operating substantially as specified.
2. The combination, with the drum-shaft and belttightening lever, of the rod Y, arranged to be acted 'on, for releasing the belt, by one set of the arms A F,
all substantially as specified. CHARLES J. BEASLEY'.
