ATTORNEY UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JAMES S. HAGGERTY, OF MANNINGTON, WEST VIBLGINIA.
CIGAR AND STOGY MAKING KAQHINE.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES S. HAGGERTY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Mannington, in the county of Marion and State of West Vir 'nia, have invented certain new and usefu Improvements in Cigar and Stogy Making Machines, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to tobacco bunching and rolling machines for use in making cigars and stogies, and has especial reference to a machine which may be operated either by the hand or foot.
An object of prime importance is to provide a portable machine which may be used for bunching, rollin and wrapping the tobacco, so that the finished product 13 the result of a complete operation of the machine.
A coordinate object resides in the provision of a simplified structure which will antomatically adjust itself to the bunch or filler of tobacco for making cigars or stogies of various sizes.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a top plan view of a machine constructed in accordance with my invention, a portion thereof being broken away.
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of 1% 58.1156, and 1 f t V f isato an ra ena viewo a modi ed form iii the devi W In the drawings, a base member 1 is shown, to illustrate the application of my invention. A right-angled end ortion 2 is secured to one of the terminals 0 the base 1, the latter being e uipped with a sill 3, which snugly engages t e said base and the end portion 2, as shown to advantage in Fig. 2.
A carriage generally desiisiated 6 is slidably mounted upon the sha 5, and in this instance comprises a main frame 7 and a subframe 8. T
pair of bearing sleeves 9 which are slidably mounted upon the shafts 5 and have we portions 10 extending upwardly therefrom into on agement with the bottom face of a smooth g plate 11. A roller 12 is jgjir- -naled between the'inner ends of the eb portions 10, at a point off-set from the inner terminals of the bearing sleeve: 9, as
Specification of Letters Patent. Application filed November 9, 1816. Serial 4 e main frame 7 consists of av Patented Sept. 4, 1917. iaosao.
.showm to ajvantage in Fi 2. The subframe 8 con sts of a air 0 bearing sleeves 13 which arefalso slida 1y mounted upon said shafts 5, in advance of the bearing sleeves 9. Web portions project upwardly from the outer eriphery of the sleeves 13 and have journa ed therebetween a roller 14 which extends in parallelism with the roller 12 and coacts therewith as will be hereinafter set forth. A shaft 15 is arranged between the web portions of said bearing sleeves 13 in superposed relation to a roller 16. Said roller '16 is journaled between the bearing sleeves 13. p
A cnsioning bracket 17 is reciprocabl mounted upon the shafts 5 and is in yiel ing engagement'with the end member 2 of the base. The yielding medium in this instance comprises a pair of coil springs 18, one end of each of which is in engagement with the bracket 17, while the opposite end of each is in engagement with a threaded bolt 19. The bolts 19 are adjustably mounted in the end member 2, so that the tension of the springs may be adjusted if so desired. It will be noted that the normal tendency of the springs 18 is to hold the bracket 17 in snug engagement with one of the bearing blocks 4.
In order to increase the efliciency of the or retention belt 20 is provided which may be made of leather or an other suitable material. One end of the It is fixedly engaged with the sill 3, while the op osite end is engaged with the upper face of the base 1. An intermediate portion of the belt-is trained about the rollers 14 and 16, in order to hold the sub-frame 8 from movement, unless pressure is brought to bear on the latter, The carriage will in this way be stabilized, at 'the same time free movement of thecarriage will be permitted when pressure is exerted thereon. In this way a smooth even movement of the carria e will be attained so as to adequately roll the tobacco bunch and insure the roper density of the cigar or stogy. As will appreciated the master belt acts as a controller for the carriage without in any way retarding eincient operation of the latter. A tobacco bunch or filler apron 21 is provided, one end of which is fixedly engaged with the base 1, in superposed relaapron is engaged with the racket 17, in the form of the invention as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. The apron 21 is engaged over the rollers 12 and 4, as shown to advantage in Fig. 2 and is flexible between said rollers to provide a pocket. The main frame 7 and sub-frame 8 of said carriage are resiliently connected by s rings 22, so that the space between. the rol era 12 and 14 may be varied; to accord with the magnitude of the bunch or filler which is to be inserted in the pocket of the apron. The size of the ocket may be accordingly varied due to t e resilient mountin of the bracket 17.
In F ig. 3 as i htly modified form of the device has been own. In this instance the s rings 18 are shown directly connected to t e apron 21, .thereb eliminating the use of the bracket 17. he bracket 17 is desired when very accurate work is to be done, whereas by eliminating the bracket, a cheaper machine will be provided, and ma be used equally as well, for work whic need not be characterized by the greatest accuracy.
In operation, the bunch or filler is first assembled in the channel at the outer mar "n of the smoothing late 11, after whic the said bunch or filler is transferred to a. point directly infront of the smoothing plate, which is directly above the rollers 12 and 14. By fpressing downwardly on the"bunch or ller, the rollers 12 and 14 are separated, thereby permitting a pocket to be formed in the apron, the size of which is regulated by the size of the tobacco bunch or filler The carria 6 is then moved toward the bracket 17, t ereby rolling the contents of the pocket. If desired, the carriage may be moved on the shafts 5, until it contacts with the bracket 17, but as a neral rule, the contents of the pocket wifi be suificiently rolled, when approximately one-fourth the length of the s afts 5 has been traversed. Attention is also directed to the fact that the carria e may be operated by foot ressure if disired, in which instance a ca le 23 is engaged with the stationary shaft 15 of the sub-frame 8,
and is trained over a pulley wheel 24 in the base 1. The lower end of said cable is eqp'lipped with a stirrup 25 or the like, in w oh the foot maybe conveniently placed. Pressure uponthe stirrup 25, will obviously move the carriage toward the bracket 1 When it is desired to expel the contents of the pocket, the carriage is moved in the op osite direction.
rom the above it will no doubt be obvione that a manually portable structure is provided, which can be manufactured at a very low cost, and which is characterized by 1ts simplicity of operation and the fact that it is equally applicable for use in making cigars and stogles of various sizes.
I claim:. 1. A cigar and stogy making machine 7 includinga base equipped with a reciprocable carnage, a master belt, the terminals of which are en aged with said base, the body of the belt emg trained through the carria e to insure a smooth even movement thereo and an apron mounted on thebase and flexible in the carriage to form a pocket.
2. A cigar and s makin machine ineluding a base equipped wit horizontal shafts, a bracket movably mounted on the shafts and yieldably en aged with one end of the base, a carriage s id'ably mounted on the shafts and separable intermediate its ends, an apron, one end of which is engaged with said bracket and the opposite end engaged through the carriage and with said base, said apron being flexible between the separable portions of the carriage, to form a pocket.
3. A cigar and stogy making machine in- Cludl a base equipped with parallelly arrange shafts, a bracket movably mounted on theshafts and yieldably engaged with one end of the base, a carriage slidably mounted on the shafts and separable intermediate its ends, a belt, one end of which is engaged with one end of the base, and the opposite end passed throu h said carriage and fixedly enga d with t e base, adjacent the opposite en of the latter, to prevent undue movement of the carriage, and-an apron, one end of which is engaged with said bracket and the o posite end engaged through the carriage ans with said base, said apron bein flexible between the separable portions 0 the carriage to form a pocket, substantially as set forth.
In testimon whereof I 'afiix my signature in presence 0 two witnesses.
