Application filed October 18, 1917. Serial No. 197,228.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, JACOB Srocxn, and MANLEY J. MERRELL, citizens of the United States, and residents of. St. Louis and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Brick- Surfacing Machines, of which the following is a specification containing a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
Our-invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in brick surfacing or scoring machines, and has for it'sobject a construction of a machine which can be readily attached to and removed from a brick press, and to receive the bricks as they come from the molds for the purpose of operating upon the surfaces of the brick to produce a decorative efiect, and is especially designed to operate upon the surface of mat brick before they are placed in the kiln for burning.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a front View of our device attached to a brick press.
Fig. 2 is a side view of the same.
Fig. 3 is a top view with parts removed.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged front view of our device showing it, in closed position by dotted lines.
Fig. 5 is a view of the face scoring cutters in their proper position.
Figs. 6, 7 and 8 are views illustrating the scoring cutters which we employ.
Fig. 9 is a perspective view of a portion of one of the end scoring cutter supports.
Fig. 10 is a face view of a brick with parts broken away illustrating the work accomplished with our machine.
Referring to the drawings: 14 indicates a base or bed plate comprising a horizontal portion 15 and a vertical portion 16, said vertical portion being secured to the front of an ordinary brick press by means of bolts which pass through openings 17 formed in the plate 16. 18 indicates a pair of outside guide plates and 19 acentral plate, which are secured to compartments or brick guideways or pockets 19. 20, 21 and 22 indicate scoring cutters which score or cut the side face of the brick. The cutters are arranged in dilfer- 'ent planes and act on the side faces of the brick at difierent positions. In the illusextended forming a pocket pass the plate 15 and form two tration we have shown our invention applied to a twomold machine, but it may be adapted for use on a four-mold or sixmold machine by mere duplication. 23 indicates standards mounted on the plate 15 in which are seated rods 24, which serve as gulde or bearing rods for the end face scoring cutter bars 25. These end cutter bars are U -shaped,their short ends 26 carrying the end scoring cutters 26. There are four of such U-shaped cutter bars connected together in pairs as shown in Fig. 3 by the bars 27. Between the bars we provide bars 28 connected to the U-bars in the same manner as the bars 27 and these bars are provided with integrally formed cars 29. To these cars are pivotally attached one end of levers 30, their other ends being pivotally attached to the levers 31. The levers 31 are in turn rigidly attached to segmental gears 32, which are pivotally mounted in a frame 33 formed on the portion 15 and straddling the scoring frames. One of the levers is handle 34 and by manipulation of the handle the end scoring cutters are brought together in the center of the ends of the brick scoring the surface.
The operation of our device is as follows:
The brick having been first formed in the press and its ends and one side face corrugated illustrated in Fig. 10. is fed forward and into the scoring machine by the charger of the brick press. When the charger is drawn back, the handle 34 is manipulated which causes the end cutters to travel across the ends of the brick and score the same. The end cutters for each brick guideway or across the ends of the buck toward each other and meet in the center of both the ends of the brick. When the charger comes forward again, carrym another brick, this brick pushes the first rick entirely through the scoring machine so that the brick can be replaced and removed to the truck ready for burning.
It will be observed that by the use of 0111 invention, we are able to score both ends of two bricks and a side of each at the same time. While we show our machine as a hand operated one, it may be made to opcrate automatically by the movement of the press, but this being merely a mechanical expedient, the same is not shown in the drawings.
by the mold contained therein as a cured to one side of the guideway and movable cutters adapted to be moved toward each other across each open end of said guideway and means for operating said movable cutters.
2. A brick surfacing machine comprising.
a bed plate adapted to be secured to the frame of a brick press, a pair of brick guide Ways secured to said bed plate, the said guideways being provided with open ends and fixed sides, cutters secured to the fixed sides of said guideways, a pair of cutters adapted to be moved across the ends of said guideways simultaneously toward each other, and means for simultaneously operating said movable. cutters in opposite directions.
3. A brick surfacing machin comprising a plate adapted to be secured to a brick press, a pair of brick guideways secured to said bed plate side by side, said guideways having open ends, closed bottoms and closed sides, a series of cutters positioned adjacent a side of each guideway and located in different positions with reference to said side, movable cutters positioned adjacent each end of each guideway, and means for moving the movable cutters simultaneously in opposite directions toward and from each other.
said bed plate and arranged side by side, I
said guideways being provided with open ends closed bottoms and sides, a series of cutters positioned adjacent a side of each guideway located in different position and in different horizontal planes, a pair f mOV- able cutters adapted to be moved in opposite directions across each end of the guideways, and means for simultaneously operating the movable cutters in opposite directions toward each other.
5. A brick surfacing machine comprising a bed plate adapted to be attached to the frame of a brick press, a guideway for a brick having fixed sides and open ends secured to said bed plate, cutter blades secured to one side of the guideway, and movable cutters adapted to be moved across each open end and to meet in'the center of said guideway, and means for operating said cutters.
In testimony whereof, We have signed our names to this application, in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
