SILAS HEYSER, OF JACKSON, MICHIGAN, ASS IGNOR TO JAMES HARDING AND JAMES B. WESLEY, OF SAME PLACE.

IMPROVEMENT IN PANELlNG-MACHINES.

' Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 124,267, dated March'5, 1872.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, SILAs HEYSER, of J ackson, in the county of Jackson and State of Michigan, have invented anew and Improved Panel-Machine; 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 had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification.

My invention consists in improvements which will be first described and then clearly pointed out in the claim.

Figure 1 is a horizontal section of my improved machine. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the same; and Fig. 3 is a transverse section.

Similar letters of reference indicate corre sponding parts.

A is a suitable rectangular frame, with an ordinary table, B, on the top, on which is arranged a broad vertical guide, 0, made adjustable laterally by means-"of the slotted bars' D and clamping-screws En Said guide, also, has a notch in the lower edge near the center, through which therotary planing-tool F works against the board to be acted on, which is fed along the side of the guide inany suitable way, and held up snugly against it by the spring H. T is a short adjustable guide placed in front of guide 0, behind the cutting-point, between which and guide 0 the board passes as it is dressed. This cutter F is mounted on the upper end of the vertical mandrel G, mounted in fixed bearings, and acts upon one side of the board, while another similar cutter, I, mounted on a similar mandrel, J, which is mounted in bearings on a block, K, adjustable toward or from the mandrel G, works on the other side. The said cutters are suitably shaped for makin g the wide rabbets at the edges of the boards, such as is common in paneled boards. The block K is connected by bolts M, which pass through slots in the support 0, with a sliding bar, N, which holds it in position, and is forced forward by a hand-screw, P. Q represents sheetmetal or other hoods placed over the cutters and provided with extensions leading to one end of the frame parallel with the guide 0, and arranged to conduct the chips off the table, the said chips being forced by the blast induced by the rotation of the cutters. These hoods have openings at the sides suited for the cutters to work through to reach the boards to be dressed, and one of them is placed at the rear side of the guide (3.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Pat cut- The hoods Q Q, constructed as described, I

when combined with panelin g-tools F F placed in one end thereof, and operating to cut out the shavings and to produce a current of air which forces them through the hoods.
