WELCH BARSTOW, 0F SPOKANE, WASHINGTON, ASSIGNOR T0 THOMAS FRANK RYAN- OF SEATTLE, WASHINGTON.
BECOBDING-THEBMOMETER.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WELCH' BARSTOW, a citizen of the United States, residing at Spokane, in the county of Spokane and State of lVashington, have im'ented new and useful Improvements in Recording-Thermometers, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to improvements in recording thermometers.
The object of the invention is to provide, in a recording thermometer, improvements in the means for inclosing the same and locking the inclosure; in the frame therefor; in the means for supporting a recording sheet; in the means for adjusting the initial position of the marking pen; in the means for varying the amplitude of movement of the pen; in the thermostat; and in the marking pen.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1 is a front view of my device shown partly in section.
Fig. 2 is a view partly in section looking from the side opposite to Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a plan view of the device, the cover being removed.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged detail sectional view on the line 4-4 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is an enlarged detail sectional view on the line 55 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 6 is a. rear view of the device.
1 Fig. 7 is a view taken at right angles to Fig. 2, the upper portion of the thermometer being in vertical section on the line 77 of Fig. 3.
Fig; 8 is a perspective view of the frame detac ed.
Fig. 9 is a plan view of the device, the cover, frame and parts carried thereby being removed.
Fig. 10 shows a broken portion of a recording sheet.
Referring to the drawing, 1 indicates an outer cylindrical case having a closed bottom 9. A short, inner cylindrical case 2 having a base 3 and an upwardly extending wall 33, fits tightly in the upper, open end of outer case 1. The base 3 and wall 33 support the mechanism of the apparatus, while the cylindrical portion of the case 2, which renders said base 3 rigid,'fits tightly in the case 1 to form a permanent oint. To the. lower side of the base 3 is secured,by screws 4, '(Fig. 1') the frame 6 of clock-work mechanism 7, having a main spring 8, wound by Specification of Letters Patent.
a rotatable shaft 13 centrally secured to main spring 8, the upper end of shaft 13 extending through a 'hole in thelbase 3 of the case 2.
Around that portion of shaft 13 which extends above the base 3 is a winding spool 14. Upon the threaded, upper end of shaft 13, extending above spool 14, is screwed a winding key 16, which, being screwed down on shaft 13, presses against the bottom of a socket 17 in the top of spool 14 and thereby presses the bottom of spool 14 against the roughened, upper surface of a collar 18. Collar 18 is secured to shaft 13, rotating therewith and extending through the hole in base 3 through which shaft 13 extends. The winding spool 14 is thus caused to rotate with shaft 13 through the engagement- Patented Apr. 30, 1918.
Alpplication filed March 20,1917. Serial No. 156,002. I
of collar 18 and the bottom of spool,14.- At 1 cured to wall 22 of a frame 23 by means of rivets 24 which extend through said sheet support 21, wall 22 and also through a bar 26 positioned at the back of Wall 22. The frame 23 comprises, in addition to wall 22, an approximately semi-circulartop 28 integral with wall 22 and having'a de ending flange 29 contiguous with flanges 2 which extend rearwardly from wall 22 (Fig. 8). Flange 29 is formed with a number of portions bent outwardly to form sockets 31 which are adapted to receive teeth 32 cut in the upper edge of the upwardly extending wall 33, teeth 32 being bent inwardly to enter sockets 31. From the bottom of wall 22 depend lu s 34 which are received in slots 36 (Fig. 9 formed in the base 3 of case 2, and secured therein by being headed over as at 102. By means of lugs 34, slots 36, teeth 32 and sockets 31,'the frame 23 is firmly secured to base 2.
the support or table 39 for the sheet 19, the extreme end of sheet support 21 being rounded as at 103 so that sheet 19 can travel smoothly, and without friction around it.
The free end of sheet 19, or that which is not attached to spool 14, is wound up on itself in a roll, as at 104, and roll 104 is inserted in the receptacle 37.
That end of sheet 19 which is adjacent to its point of attachment to spool 14 ispassed between the end of the cylindrical portion 37 of sheet support 21 and the portion 38, thereof, and then over the table 39. The lower edge'of sheet 19 is received in a guide 41 (Fig. 1) formed by bending up the lower edge of table 39. Integral with guide 41 and extending upwardly therefrom is lip 105, Whose function is to assist in the insertion of sheet 19 under guide 41. There is also provided an upper guide 42, formed by bendin the upper edge of table 39 up and over. That portion of sheet 19 which is adjacent to its point of attachment to spool 14 is cut away on its upper edge, as shown at 35 (Fig. 10) so as to clear guide 42, so that when sheet 19 is wound on spool 14, the upper edge of the main body of sheet 19 will be drawn under guide 42.
The inner end of coil 43 is secured to a portion 44 extending outwardly from, or at substantially right angles to, an arm 45 (Figs. 2, 4) which is pivoted by means of a screw 46 to a bar 26. A. pin 47 is adapted to rotate in a hole 48 provided in bar 26, and is held therein by a headed-over portion 106. The head 100, integral and eccentric with pin 47, is adapted to hit snugly but rotate in the round hole 108 provided in arm 45. The end of head 100 is slotted as at 109 so that it may be rotated by means of a screw driver.
After temporarily loosening screw 46, the pin 47 may be rotated by turning head 100, thereby causing head 100 to move a small distance from its initial position which causes arm 45 to turn about the screw 46, thus rotating the coil 43. Arm 45 may be secured in any position to which it has been adjusted by means of sufficiently tightening screw 46.
The outer end of spiral coil 43 is soldered or otherwise secured to a piece of metal 48 having extending therefrom apertured arms 49, between which arms 49 is pivoted by means of pivot pin 50, which extends through arms 49, one end of a link 51. The
'69 being approximately zero.
recast/s other end of link 51 is pivoted, as shown at 52, to a slide piece 53. Piece 53 is provided with a centrally-located, depending lug 53 which is adapted to slide in a slot 54 provided in an arch portion 54 formed on a crank arm 56. Arch portion 54 serves as a slide track for slide piece 53, the co-acticn of lug 53 and slot 54 serving to slidably guide piece 53. The slide piece 53 is secured by a screw57, which passes through slot 54, to a block 58 into which is threaded an adjusting screw 59 extending through the outer, depending end 56 of crank arm 56. A collar 61 is integral with screw 59 and positioned at the side of the depending end 56 opposite tothat side upon which the head of screw 59 bears.
By loosening screw 57 and revolving screw .59 in a clockwise direction block 58 is caused to traveltoward the head of screw 59 and the efiective length of crank arm 56 is correspondingly increased. By revolving screw 59 in a counter-clockwise direction the effective length of crank arm 56'is correspondingly diminished. Upon adjusting the effective length of crank arm 56 to any desired amount, saidadjusting mechanism may be locked in that position by tightening screw 57.
To the other end of shaft 60 is secured the inner end of a marking arm 64, and adjacent to arm 64 is counterbalance 67 which extends in the direction opposite to arm 64 in the form of a segmental sleeve partly surrounding the shaft 60. Counterbalance 67 counterbalances arm 64 and part of the unbalanced portion of coil 43.
The marking arm 64 is preferably made of sheet metal, widened at its outer end, the margins of the wider portion being bent underneath the main body of arm 64 and. brought together to form an ink receptacle 68 which is provided with an aperture 111 to allow marking ink to be placed in receptacle 68. The receptacle 68 terminates in a pointed portion 112 having a minute aperture to permit ink to flow slowly therethrough.
lln order to make the thermostat 43 very sensitive, T form it of two metals, of which one, 68, is preferably brass, the heat coefficient of expansion of which is great, and the other, 69, is preferably an alloy of approximately 36% nickel and 64% steel, the heat coeflicient of expansion of this alloy The brass rounds the upper portion of the wall 2 and is secured thereto by a projecti0n7 1, thereon, entering a groove 72 which extends obliquely downward from the top of the wall of case 2. 1
