Application filed October 3, 1917. Serial m. 194,478.

To all whom it may concern:

Beit known that we, WILLIAM F. GROENE and WILLIAM G.. HOELSCHER, citizens of the United States, residing at Cincinnati, county have invented an Improvement in Lathes, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, like characters on the drawings repre' senting like parts.

The invention hereinafter described relates to machine tools and more particularly to lathes.

The usual lathe comprises a bed with live and dead spindles thereon to support and rotate the work, and a carriage supporting a cross slide'with a rest thereon for the tool acting on the work. .The carriage ma be fed to carry the tool longitudinally of the bed and the cross'slide may be fed to carry the tool transversely of the bed.

In certain classes of work it is also desirable to swivel the tool rest on the cross slide and feed the tool relatively to the work in different positions of angular adjustment. Mechanisms have been devised for this purpose, but they are objectionable for various reasons. Among others, they are tob large and cumbersome to apply to the smaller types of lathes where the distance between the top of the carriage and the center line of the spindle is limited. I

One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a strong, simple and compact mechanismfor feeding the tool relatively to the work in different positions of angular adjustment, suitable for small as well as large lathes.

In the practical embodiment of this fea-- ture of the invention,the shaft for driving the angular feed passes through the cross feed screw to the rear thereof and ermits its movement through a train of mec ianisni' I to apinion and rack for moving the top slide in the angular direction predetermined by adjustment of the angularly movable or swivelelement. 1

Il e;mnother object and important featureof the present invention consists in simple and effective means for quickly and accurately setting the tool rest to different positions of angular adjustment. invention, in the fornnlierein described, is carried into effect by one or more adjustable elements or dogs having means for securing it or them in. position for cooperative relation with a stop, the dogs and stop being associated, one with the slide and the other with the angularlyadjlistable tool carrying element or swivel member so that by adjustment of the dog or dogs the angular position of the swivel element is readily determined.

And still another object is to provide means for quickly locking the tool rcst'in its positions of adjustment. In carrying this feature of the invention into effect, the present invention, in the form herein described, contemplates a clamping device comprising .in its construction a split ring drawn to- This feature of the- Patented Sept. 2,1919.

or embodiment of the invention illustrated by the accompanying drawings and then tl1e novel features and combinations comprised within the invention will be definitely set forth by the claims.

Fig. 11 is a diagramillustrating the adjustments of the swivel member for turning faces on a gear blank.

Referring to the drawings, the machine I shown therein as embodying the invention comprises the usual standard supporting a bed, 3 having a live spindle head 4 and I dead spindle head 5 mounted thereon and 1 carrylng'spmdles 7 and 8- respectively for supportlng and rotating the work in the usual manner. v

A carriage 9 is'mounted on and adapted to be fed along tracks 11 on the bed longitudinally of the latter.

-A cross slide 13 is mounted on the carriage and is adapted to be fed-alongthe same transversely of the bed. It. is guided in this instance of the invention by a dovetail 14 on the carriage entering a groove in the bottom of the slide.

To feed the cross slide transversely of the bed, it may have a nut 15 (Fig. 2) se cured thereto and depending therefrom threaded toreceive a hollow screw shaft 17 extending transversely of said carriage and journaled in bearings therein, the construction being such that upon rotation. of the screw shaft'17 the cross slide 13 will be appropriately moved.

A gear, 19 fast on the feed screw shaft adjacent the forward endthereof is adapt ed to be driven by a-wide faced shiftablev gear 21 fast on a shaft rotatable and slidable in bearings 23 and 2-5 in the carriage. The front end of this shaft may-have a hand wheel26 (Fig. 5 fast thereon permitting rotation of" the wide faced gear and the. screw shaft to feed the cross slide manually. if desired. e

The wide faced gear my be adjusted a;

three different positions. When thrust to its; 'ezrtreme inward position, it' will be in mesh, Wlt-h the screw shaftgear and serve to trans mit rotation thereto. 'When pulled to its extreme outward position, it will. mesh with a; gear 27 on a shaft 28 projecting through the screw shaft for a purpose to be described. When in its intermediate position it will be out of engagement withboth' of. said gears.

The wide faced gear shaft may-be held in taken on line 7-7 of by a handle its two extreme positions of adjustment by a spring-pressed ball 29, adapted to enter circumferential grooves31 in said shaft.

Thus, the hand wheel serves the dual function of shifting the wide faced gear axially i to its different positions of adjustment and of rotating said shaft to manually feedthe' cross slide. The liubof the hand wheel may along a boss 35 projecting forwardly from the carriage to prevent the chips or cuttings from the tool from reaching and injuring the shaft or its bearing.

hme a sleeve 38 fastthereon which will slide The wide faced gear continually mesheswith a gear 37 loose on the shaft 28, referred to, adapted to be driven by a gear 39 (Figs.

2, 5 and 6) fast on a studshaft journaled I and adapted to slide in bearings in the carriage apron 43. The gear is driven by a wide faced nectedby a friction clutch 49 with a large pinion 45, adapted to be con-.

bevel gear 51, said clutchbeing cont-rolled by ahandle 53 (Fig. 1) on astem 54 passing through the'pinion '45 and connected to the hub of the bevel gear 51. The latter may be rotated in oppositedirection's by bevel pinions 55 and 57 (Fig. '6) fast on a sleeve 59 splined-to a driving shaft 61. The sleeve may be shifted axially of said shaft to bring said bevel pinions alternatively into mesh with saidbevel ear by a yoke 63 controlled apron.

The slide may be fed in opposite directions from, the shaft 61 by a driving train in the apron quite similar tothat cut, No. 980,971, ofR-a K. Le Blond and W. F. Groene, granted January 10, 1911.

To, feed thecarriage longitudinally of the 5 y 10 i Fi 2) fast thereon ear 39, "referred to,

a gear 69 on a shaft 71 gear 39 and inion 67 may be shiftedaxially' When this by ahandle '6 (Figs, 1 and 2). handle is thrust inward, the gear 39 will be thrown out of mesh fwiththe gear 1 37,- thereby interrupting the transmission tothe cross slide, and the pinion 67 will be thrown into mesh with the rack gear 69, thereby completing the transmission to the pinion,

.73. and causing the carriage to feed longi tudinally' of the bed.

To feedthe .ca'rriage manually along'the.

bed, the gear 69 (Fig-5) may mesh with a bearing in the apron and carrying a hand wheel 83 at the'front of the apron. y A swivel memberSfi-(F'gs. l and 2) is" mounted on a portion of the. slide and said parts have vertical registering bore'srecei'v- (Fig. 1) at the front of the 4 construction is such that the cross in bearings in the apron pinion 79 fast on a shaft81 journaled in 'a' i shown in Letters Pating a bushing 87 about which said swivel 1 105 (FigsQl and 9 the swivel'member in the member is adapted to turn.

To secure the swivel member in different "positions of angular adjustment on said cross slide, said member and slide may have opposed conical projections 91 occupying a recess 93 in the base of. said swivel member.

Clamping means,-in the present instance of the invention, comprises a split ring having sections 95 (Fig. 8) adapted to embrace said conicalprojections.

Horizontal screws 97 maybe threaded into one section and pass loosely throu h the other section, and thence outwardly t rough hearings in the swivel member. One of said screws presents a squared end 99 adapted to receive a handle or wrench for adjusting the same. The other screw has a head adapted to receive a' screw driver to set the same in proper position of adjustment when theparts are assembled. The screws have washers 103 confined between shoulders on said screws and one of the ring sections. The construction is such that one of the screws may be adjusted to a fixed position and the other maybe tightened to contract the split ring and cause thesame to grip the conlcal projections of the slide and swivel member and .securely hold the latter in its positions of rotative adjustment on the former.

Next will be described means to facilitate prompt and accurate angular adjustment of the swivel member with respect to thecross slide. This means, in the present instance of the invention, com rises one or more dogs j having curved tongues 107 fitting a circumferential groove 109 in the cross slide. Each dog may have an elongated slot 111 therein receiving a pair of screws 113 adapted to be secured in a series of tapped "holes 115 (-Fig. 9) in said groove. The elongated slots may be longer than the holes, and hence it is qulred position of ment in said groove. and 2) may be secured circumferential -adjust A stop 117 (Figs. 1 to the under side of path of said dogs and cooperate therewith to determine the angular adjustment of the swivel member according to the location of the dogs.

To enable the dogs to be quickly-and accurately set in their positions of adjustment, scales 119 and 119 (Figs. 10 and 11) may be provided comprising series of gradpations on a circular portion of the swivel member,-

each series being marked from 0 to 90, and adapted to be read in connection with dian'ietrically'opposed index lines 120 (Figs. 9 and 10) on the curved portion of the cross slide directly beneath the swivel member.

.In setting the parts in position "to turn faces at di erent angles w1th respect to a p ece of work, the swivel member is rotated until the graduation on one of thescales corresponding to the angle desired, registers with one of the index lines on the cross slide. Then one of the dogs is adjusted in the circumferential groove in the cross slide to turn another face having a different angle on-the work, the swivel memberflis rotated until the graduation on the other scale cor-' responding to the angle desired, registers with the other index line. In the course of this adjustment, the stop on the swivel member will assume a different position. Then the other stop dog is adjusted in the circumferential groove of the cross slide until one of the ends thereof engages said stop. The dog will then be in position to determine the adjustment of the swivel member the next time it is desired to turn a face on the work at the same angle without the necesslty for reference to the scale.

For example, it may be supposed that it is desired to turn on a gear blank a (Fig.

11) a face at an angle of 30to the plane of the gear in readiness to have teeth milled therein, and that it is desired to then turn 'a back face on the blank at an angle of 45 to the plane of the gear. If the turning tool L on the tool rest is erpendicular to the axis of the gear when t e zero raduations of the scales register with the in ex line 120,

.t'hen the swivel member will be rotated to its groove to a position determined by its.

engagement with member.

To set the swivel member in position to turn the back face of 45 on the gear blank, the screw 97 is adjusted to release the ring sections from the swivel member, thereby permitting the latter to be rotated until the the stop 117 on the swivel graduation of the scale 119' thereon marked a 45? registers with the other index line. The

screw 97 is then adjusted to tighten the ring. sections to the swivel member to secure the The screw 97 is then upper slide and another tool '0 Simultaneous rotaand feeding of the willturn the face-on the gear bank at an angle of 45 to the plane thereof. To enable the return of the swivel member to this same adjustment without reference to the'scale, the other dog 105 is adjusted to a position determined ,by its enga ement with the stop 117 on the swivel mem er.

Thus, any desired angle may be turned on successive gear blanks by adjusting the swivel member to a position determined by the engagement of its stop with one of the dogs, and then byadjustin'g said swivel member same in this position. tion of the gear blank to a position determined by the engagement of its stopwith he other dog. The construction is such, that the swivel member can bequickly and accurately adjusted with'- out reference to the scale.

An upper slide121 may be mounted on the swivel member and have guiding connection therewith, as by a dovetail 123 projecting downwardtherefrom into a groove on the top of the swivel member.

To feed the upper slide along said memher, the slide may have a toothed element,

in the present instance of the invention, in

the form of a rack 125 (Figs. 1, 2 and 3).

secured by screws 129 to the under face 0 the dovetail on the slide.- This rack projects into a recess in the top'of the swivel member and meshes'with a pinion 131 in said I recess mounted fast on the upper end of a vertical shaft 133 keyed to a sleeve 135' journaled in the swivel bushing '87, referred to.

The lower end of said sleeve has a bevel gear 137 fast thereon driven by a bevel pinion 139 havinga hub fast on one ing 143 in the, cross slide, and confined movement in said bearing.

is splined to the hub of a gear 145'journaled in a bearing in a bracket 147 secured'to the rear end of the carriage.

The construction is such, that when the cross slide is fed trans- "shaft 28,

"the hollow screw shaft 17 for feeding said shaft will slide of said gear, butwill al-, to transmit the feed to the versely of thecarriage, through the .hub ways be effective upper slide in the var ous positions of the The ing a b journaled in a bearing1 in said bracket and secured to the upper s ide feed referred to, which prqjects through cross slide.

When the wide ,faced gear21 is shifted outwardly by the handwheel 26, it will 'orin said gear into mesh with the ear 27 on t e .forwardend of the up er sli e feed shaft-.28. As a result wheat o hand wheel apron 1s faces at angles of 30 and 45 or under the control of the hand e end of ashaft 141 and ournaled in a bushing in'a'bearear 145 is driven b'ya gear 149, hayto be fed manually throughthe train oi gearing described. If the gear 39 in the the gear 37, the wide faced gear will be driven fromthe gear train described inthe apron, thereby permitting-the upper slide to be fedby power.

cross slide .or the'upper slide maybe fed accordin to vwhether the wide faced gear is shifte to mesh with the driving gear on the cross feed screw Shaftor'; the driving gear on the upper slide feed shaft-projecting through said screw shaft. 7

The direction of feed for both 'of said slides will'be determined by adjustment of shifted outwardly mtomesh with the construction described, either the i the bevel pinions' 55 and 57, referred to, into I or out of mesh with the bevel ear 51and front of the apron. I

To confine the feed screw shaft for the cross slide against axial movement, it may have a collar 151 (Fig. 2) faston the rear end thereof confined between an end of a 1 recess in the bracket 147 and a sleeve nut .153 threaded in said recess andsecured by a set screw 155. This nut may be adjusted to take up. wear onsaid collar and prevent lost motion of the screw shaft in the direction of its axis.

" I It will be noted that the rack and pinion for feeding the upper slide along the swivel enga'gea lug 171 the locking plunger. To nlock the latter, its outer end niay be con- 3 iii said upper slide and confined between a H member; are mounted in the same horizontal plane, and that the swivel member may be adjusted about the axis of said pinion'to any position ,of' rotative adjustment withi out interference with the feeding of the slid along the swivel member. The rack and pinion and the gear train for rotating the latter, constitute a strong, compact organization, enabling the upper slide to be mounted closely adjacent to the upper surface of the carriage. Thus the mechanism is well adapted not only to large lathes, but also to small lathes, which necessarily have a limited space between the upper surface of the carriage and the spindle centers, in which to accommodatethe feeding mechanism for the upper slide.

The machine described provides a simple and effective mechanism enablingthe carriage to be fed longitudinally of the bed; the crossslide to be fed transversely of the bed and the upper slide to be fed in any selected direction in a horizontal plane; and the carriage and both slides may be fed by power or manually as desired with a minimum number of adjustments.
