Description

c 4 vnf UNITED STATES PATENT OEEICE.
FRANKLIN J. STALEY, OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA, ASSIGNOR TO LONG,
I YJOSEPH & CARTER, OF SAME PLACE.
lIMPROVEMENT IN HEAD-BLOCKS FOR SAW-MILLS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. ll0,085, dated December 13, 1870;' antedated December 9, 1570.
T0 a/ZZ whom Lt may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANKLIN J'. STALEY, of Indianapolis, in the county of Marion and State of Indiana, have invented certain'Improvements in Devices for Operating the Setting-Shaft of Saw-Mill Head-Blocks, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to device for operating the setting-shaft of saw-mill head-blocks; and it consists in the arrangement of two ratchetwheels that are keyed on the setting-shaft, combined with two reciprocating rotary disks, being each provided with an arm having pawls to engage with the ratchet-wheels, 'and a segmental cog-bar. A pinion gears with the segmental cog-bar, and a lever attached to the pinion-shaft serves to operate the disks and pawls, and the latter rotate the ratchet-wheels and setting-shaft, which is connected with the head-blocks in any suitable manner.
v The objects of the invention are to secure a nicer adjustment of the knees with eq'ual rapidity and greater ease than heretofore with a simpler and cheaper device.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is atop view of the device embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is an end view of the same.
A is the outside timber of the log-carriage. B is the longitudinal setting-shaft, which has its bearings in brackets attached to the headblocks in the usual manner. C C are ratchetwheels keyed to the shaft B. D are disks or plates, made a little larger than the ratchets, and furnished with arms E, to which pawls r are attached to gear with the ratchets. Thesev disks rotate freely on shaft B, and are furnished with segmental cogs, with which the pinion F gears, as shown. The shaft of pinion F has its bearings at a a. By means of a lever, G, attached to the shaft of pinion F, the latter may be given a reciprocating rotary motioh, and this, in turn, imparts a similar movement to the disks D, with their arms E and pawls r, and thelatter, engaging with the ratchets O, rotate them and shaft B in the direction indicated by the arrows in Fig. 1. The movement of the lever ineither direction rotates the setting-shaft constantly in the same direction. The pawls are held to the ratchets by springs S. When it becomes necessary to turn the setting-shaft backward, the pawls are disengaged by means of the cam c, which is operated by means of the lever o. The stroke of the lever G is regulated by pins in the semicircular guides H in the usual manner.
This device is applicable to the setting-shaft when the latter is connected with the ordinary screw-head blocks or with the head-block, for which Letters Patent were issued to me December 21, 1869, or any similar arr-angement.
The advantages of this device consist in the direct applicati-on of the ratchets to the setting-shaft, by which much ofthe gearing heretofore used is dispensed with, and the means for operating the head-blocks is si mpliiied and cheapened.
I claim as my invention- The ratchets O, keyed to the setting-shaft B, disks D, with their arms E, pawls 1, and segmental cog c, pinion F, and lever G, all arranged to operate substantially as set forth.
FRANLIN J. STALEY.
