To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, FRITZ RUNDQUIST, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Toledo, in the county of Lucas and State of Ohio, have invented a certain new and useful Fender-Vizor-Viring-In Machine; and I do hereby declarethe following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and to the characters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this s ecification.

[This invention re ates particularly toa machine for connecting the vizor portions of fender flanges to fender bodies without the use of rivets and at the same time secur ing a reinforcing wire thereto at or adjacent to the point ofconnection, but is not restricted to such use as it may be employed in any connection for which it may be adapted or appropriate.

It has heretofore been the ractice so far as I am aware to attach the vizors to tender bodies by hand by-means of riveting, electric weldin or the like, and'such operation has not on y been exceedingly slow and difficult, but has required the work of at least two persons to perform the same.

The object of my invention is the provision of a simple and efficient machine which is. quickly operable in an automatic or semi-automatic manner to securely attach the vizors to fender bodies and wire the same at the point of connection without the use of rivets, electric welding or equivalent means of securing such parts together, whereby to materially simplify, quicken and cheapen the manufacture of such bodies and to lessen the labor incident thereto.

Further objects will be apparent from the following detailed description.

The invention is fully described in the following specification, and while, 'in its broader aspect, it is capable of embodiment in numerous forms, a preferred embodiment thereof is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which,'-

Figure 1 is a plan view of a machine embodying the invention with a part'broken away. Fig. 2 is a front elevation thereof with the parts'in inpperative position and portions broken away. Fig. 3 is' an enlarged section on the line ww in Fig. 1. Fig. 4

a table or frame top, which is supported by legs 2 and has a work supporting die or part 3 secured to and extending from one side thereof, the outer edge of such die being of semi-circular form, as best shown in Fig. 1. The die 3 is .of suitable shape to support and conform to the front end portion of the, front fender of an automobile and has its outer or semi-circular edge provided with an upstanding bead or ledge 4. within which the front rounded edge of a fender is intended to closely seat when the fender is placed in inverted position on the die. A work supporting member 5 extends upward and rearward from the rear edge of the table 1 to support the upwardly curving rear end portion of the fender when positioned on the table.

A fender is firmly clamped to the dieor table part 3 by clamping fingers 6-6, one of which is disposed at each side of the part 3 at the rear of the curved edge 4 of such part in position to engage over the side head of the fender body, such bead being preferably formed thereon before the fender is placed 'on the table preparator to having the vizor secured thereto. The c amping fingers 6 are carried by eccentric rods 7, which extend down through suitable bearing openings in the frame top 1 and have their lower ends provided with frames? forming openings in which respective eccentrics 8 on a rock-shaft 9 work, whereby the clamping fingers are raised and lowered u on a rocking of the shaft 9. The shaft 9 is mounted in suitable frame parts 10 beneath the table 1 and carriesa crank 11' at its outer end in convenient reach of the operator.

Rigidly depending from the extension part 3 of the table 1 in concentric relation to the semi-circular head 4 of such part is a stub-shaft 12 from which ahead 13 transversely projects for free semi-circular movetit) ments around the outer edge of the part 3, such head having its inner end loosely journaled on the stub-shaft 12 beneath the part 3. The head 13 carries an edge beading or wire rolling-in roll 14, such roll being laterally movable into position for an edge thereof to work over and inwardl beyond the bead 4 of the work supporting ie 3, and has a stem projecting therefrom in a diagonally disposed opening in-the head 13 and connecting, in the present instance, to a shaft part 15, which is mounted in a bearing-block 16 within the head opening for limited axial movements. A pivot pin or screw 16 projects through a portion of the head 13 and into the bearing-block 16 to pivotally carry it and the shaft part 15 for transverse swinging movements relative to the head 13 for the purpose hereinafter described. The shaft part 15 has its lower end projected'without the lower portion of the head and carrying a bevel gear 17, a stop collar 18, and a coiled compression spring 19 between said collar and gear. The spring 19 causes the roll 14 to have a yielding downward pressure onthe edge bead a of the fender A. The vizor flange of the fender is designated 5 and the reinforcing wire in the edge bead of the fender is designated 0 in Figs 5 and 8. v A bearing-block 20 is carried by the head 13 at its under side and mounted in this is a shaft 21, which carries a bevel gear 22 at its outer end in mesh with the gear 17 and a preferably smaller bevel gear 23 at its inner end in mesh with a-segmental bevel gear 24 that is fixedly mounted on the lower reduced end portion of the stub-shaft 12, being secured thereto by a nut 25, which threads on thelower reduced end portion of the shaft. It is evident that the connecting of the roller shaft 15 to the stationary gear 24 in this manner causes a rotation of the roller 14 in first one and then the other direction as the head 13 has forward and backward orbital swinging movements around the outer end portion of the table part 3.

A work-holding roll 26 is carried at th upper end portion of a vertically swinging arm 27 in osition to be swung downwardly into lateral bearing contact with the inner side of the bead a in opposition to the beading-roll 14, the arms 27 being pivoted, as at 28, to an extension-block or part 29 which is carried on the upper side of the head 13. The work-holding roll 26 is carried by a spindle 30, which depends from and is attached to. the upper free end portion of the arm 27 in any suit-- able manner. The lower or outer end ortion of the arm 27 is of yoke or forked orm to adapt it to straddle the outer end portion of the block or bearing part 29, and a lever member 31 is mounted on the shaft or pin 28 with the arm 27, and has its outer or long arm extending between and beyond the forked end portion of the arm 27 in the direction of projection thereof. The inner end of the lever member 31 is in the form of a short arm 31*, which receives the outward thrust of a plunger 32 that is mounted in an opening 33 in the part 29 and has its outward movements influenced by a coiled compression spring 34, which is mounted in the openingtherewith, as best shown in Fig. 5. A thrust part 34 is disposed in the inner end portion of the opening 33 to receive the inner end thrust of the spring 34 and bears against a bearing block 14 on the spindle or shaft of the roll 14 to tend to move the roll 14 transversely to work coacting position when the lever member 31 has spring compressing movements. A pair of coiled contractile springs 27 connect the

levers

27 and 31 below the pin 28 with the shaft of the roll 14 to tend to hold all of such parts in inoperative positions, as shown in Flg. 5.

A horizontal shaft 35 is journaled in a bearing-block 36 thatis secured to the outerend of the head 13 and a rock-finger 37 is carried by such shaft for rocking movements therewith within a recess in the outer side of the block 36. This finger is positioned to have contact at its outer end with the inner side of the lower portion of the arm or lever 27 to swing such arm into position for its roll 26 to have contact with a work piece when the finger is swung outward. The finger 37 is provided in its outer end with a socket in which a detent or spring plunger 37 is mounted for yielding compressing movements within the finger. This plunger is intended to coact with the long arm of the lever 31, when the finger is swung outward, to cause a swinging of the lever 31 with the lever 27 and a consequent inward forcing of the spring plunger with which the short arm of the lever 31 has contact whereby to yieldingly move the beading roll 14 into work coacting position.

The shaft 35 carries a segmental gear 38 at the rear end thereof, and such gear meshes with a gear 39 on the outer end portion of the shaft 9, whereby a rocking of the crank-arm 11 to move the

clamping fingers

6, 6 into clamping engagement with a work piece will impart an outward rocking movement to the finger 37 to throw the work coacting rolls 14 and 26 into work engaging positions.

A driven shaft 40 is journaled in suitable bearings beneath the table 1 lengthwise thereof and carries a worm 41 in mesh with a worm-wheel 42 that is loosely journaled on the stub-shaft 12 above the inner end portion of the head 13 and is fixed to such head for turning movements therewith. A pair of loose bevel-gears 43 are carried in spaced relation by the shaft 40 and are continuously driven in reverse direction by a in Figs. 3, 4 and 7.

bevel pinion 44 ona drive-shaft 45, which is journaled beneath the table 1 and extends at right angles to the shaft 40. A belt-v pulley 46 is carried by the shaft 45 at its outer end to enable it to be connected to a line shaft, or-power may be communicated thereto in any other suitable manner. Each of the gears 43 is provided on the inner endof its hub with a clutch surface 47, and.

feathered on the shaft- 40 for axial shift;-v ing movements between the gears 43 is a clutch-member 48, which may be shifted into clutch engagement with one or the other of the gears 43, as desired, whereby to effect a driving of the shaft 40 in either transversely from a shift-rod 54. The rod or shaft 54 is mounted for axial shifting movements in the frame parts .10, 1.0 and is connected at one end to a control-lever 55,

which extends transversely thereof over a. stationary frame part 56, to which it is ful crumed, as at 57, with its rear end in position to be grasped by the operator, as shown A spring pressed tent 58 is mounted in the lower end of the bracket 51 beneath the free end of the shiftlever 49 in position to-coact with such lever upon a swinging thereof, to tend to stop its swinging when the clutch member 48 is in neutral position. The lever coacting end of the detent 58 is oppositely beveled or-of inverted V,-shape, and the adjacent end of the lever 49' is correspondingly shaped; The

point of the detent 58 is so positioned rela:

tive to the throw of the lower pointed end of lever 49 that a greater movement Wlll be required to throw the end of the lever, in the present instance, to' the left across the detent than to the right from the respective outer limits of movement of the lever end. In other words the lever when in theposition shown in Figs. 2 and 7 relative to the detent 58 is in neutral osition and when spaced to the right from t e detent point the clutch member 47 is in engagement with the left hand gear 43, and when the pointed end of the lever is disposed at the left side of the detent point and in a positlon corresponcling to the positionshownin Figs. 2

and 7 the clutch member 48 will be in engagement with the right hand gear 43.

In orderv to cause an automatic reversing of the direction of movement-of the head 13 -when it has traveled a predetermined distance aroundthe tablepart 3, and. also to effect an automatic stopplng' of the movements thereof when it has returned to its initial startingposition, the inner end of the head is provided, in the present instance, at opposite sides of its axis with

dogs

59 and 59*, one for contact with one side and the other for contact with the other side of a finger 60, which fixedlyprojects from the axially shiftable shaft 54 at predetermined mints in the forward and backward revoluble movements of the head 13. For instance, when the head 13 has completed its forward working stroke the'dog 59 will have moved into contact with thefinger 60 and effected a sufficientshifting movement of the shaft 54 to communicate a full shifting movement to the clutch' member 48 to throw it from engagement with one into engagement with the other of the clutch gears 43, thus reversing the direction of movement of the head 13 and causing it to return to starting position. When the head has substantially completed its return movement the dog 59 moves into enga ement with the finger 60 and forces it a su cient distance to place the clutch mem ber 48 in neutral position, the detent 58 tending to prevent the shift-lever 49 from having a full reversing movement due to the coaction of the oint of the detent with the .longer side oft e tapered or V-shaped end of the lever 49, as shown in Figs. 2 and 7. .An adjustable contact-screw 61 is preferably gcarried by each dog 59-59.

The

shafts

9 and 54, which. are disposed in close parallel relation, carry coacting stop

fingers

62 and 63, respectively, which coact to prevent a shifting of the-shaft 54 to the left to effect a forward moving of the head 13 until the crank 11 has been turned to impart work-clamping movements to the clamp fingers 6 and to throw the work holding-roll 26 into work engaging position. Upon a movement of the shaft 9 to impart workclamping movements to the fingers 6 the stop-finger 62 is swung from the path of movement of the fin er 63 to permit a move ment of the controlever 55 and associated parts to throw the clutch-member 48 into.en-

'gagement with the right hand or forward (lI'lViIlg clutch-gear 43.

In order to prevent a shifting of the control-lever 11 and associatedparts from their operative or work clampin 7 positions, a latch-member 64, which is pivoted beneath the table 1, as at 65, projects over the inner latch member 64 when the head completes its return stroke and effects a raising of the latch member from looking engagement with the pin 67, thus permitting a movement of the crank 11 and associated parts to inoperative position.

The operation of my machine is as follows: A fender having been placed on the table in inverted position with the front rounded edge thereof fitting closely within the rib 4 at the outer end portion of the table part 3, which rib forms a recess which is complemental to the shape of the fender end, the operator gives the crank 11 substantially a half turn from its upright position to impart a work clampin action to the clamping-fingers 6-6, WlllCh fingers have connection with the eccentrics on the rock shaft 9. It will be understood that when the fender is placed on the table the side flanges have preferably been secured thereto so that the fingers 6-6 have their clamping action against the side bead of the fender at the inner edges of the side flanges. This is not necessary, however. The vizor strip 12 is also preferably placed in position for beading and joining its edge to the fender body, prior to placing the fender on the table. The turning down of the crank 11 to impart fender clamping movements to the fingers 6 also imparts an outward rocking movement to the finger 37 and a consequent throwing of the beading roll 14 and work holding roll 26 against the respective portions of the fender. The fender parts being in position for the rolling of the vizor bead a the operator moves the handle end of the clutch control lever 55 outward to move the shaft 54 to the left and to effect a shifting of the clutch .member 48 into engagement with the right hand clutch gear 43. The rotation which is thus imparted to the shaft 40 and worm 41 drives the worm-wheel 42 in a direction to impart the forward stroke to the head 13 to cause the roll 14 to roll the edges of the vizor and fender body over the wire 0. When the head 13 has reached a predetermined point in its forward stroke the dog 59 moves into engagement-with the finger 60 on the-shaft 54 and moves such shaft to effect a shifting of the clutch-member 48 into clutch engagement with the other clutch gear 43, thus imparting a reverse rotation to the shaft 40 and returning the .head 13 to its starting position, during which return stroke the roll 14 again travels over the head a to effect a closer rolling or compressing of the same around the wire a. When the head 13 has completed its return stroke the dog 59 will have had contact with the finger 60 and moved the shaft 54 a suflicient distance to place the clutch member 48 in neutral position, butnot sufiiciently to move the lower tapered end of the lever 49 to the left past the detent 58, thus stopping theoperation of the header until the operator has again moved the control lever 55 to move the lower end of the lever 49 ast the detent and throw the clutch mem er 48 into engagement with the right hand clutch gear 43. When the crank-arm 11 is in upright or inoperative position the finger 62 on the shaft 9 stands in the path of shifting movements of the finger 63, which is carried by the axially shiftable shaft 54 and prevents an engaging of the clutch members. The movement of the shaft 9 to operative position springs the finger 62 out of locking engagement with the finger 63. When the; crank 11 has been thrown to its operative position the pin 67 on the gear 39 moves into register with the notch 66 1n the catch-member 64 to permit such catch-member to drop by gravity over such pin when the head 13 has swung to move the finger 68 from supporting contact with the free end of the catch-member 64, thus effecting a locking of the crank 11 against movement from operative position until the head has again returned to its normal position when the finger 68 moves under the catch-member 64 and automatically raises it from locking engagement with the pin 67.

It is evident that I have rovided a simple machine for joining VlZOIS to fender odies, and that the same is easily and quickly operable in a semi-automatic manner to join such parts and roll the connectin bead thereon, thus obviating the use of skilled and expensive labor, which has heretofore been necessary in work of this char acter.
