IMPROVEMENT IN MACHINES FOR MAKING SPLINTS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 132,866, dated November 5, 1872.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, JACOB D. SKEL'roN and EDWARD VICTOR, of Fort Branch, Gibson county, and State of Indian a, haveinvented a certain Improvement in a Machine for Making Splints, of which the following is a specification:
This invention has for its object the manufacture of splints for chair-bottoms, baskets, barrel-hoops, &c.; and it consists in a block having a groove in which to place the piece whence the splint is split, and a lever having a tooth, which, when drawn along the surface of the piece, separates the splint therefrom.
Figure 1 is a longitudinal vertical section, and Fig. 2 is a front view.
A is the block aforesaid, the same being intended to be placed in a vise in a vertical position, and having in its upper end a groove, a, across which a pin, 0, passes, leaving a space sufiicient for the piece 6 to be passed between the pin and the bottom of the groove to. The piece 6 is prepared of the proper width for the splint, and one end is made sloping. The sloping end is passed into the groove a under the pin 0. Standards 2', projecting from the sides of the block A, receive in orifices made for the purpose the ends of the pivot on of the lever n. Boxes 0 are placed in the orifices of the standards i, behind the ends of the pivot m, and screws 1" passing through the ends of the standards 1' enter the boxes 0.- By means of the screws and boxes the lever n can be set nearer to or further from the block A, as
desired. The lever a has a tooth, s, on its inner side, and a groove, u, in its lower end. The piece 0 is first passed into the groove a until its sloping end touches the tooth 8. Then by working the lever 11. back and forth the tooth s is caused to loosen up a splint on the sloping end of the piece 6. By feeding along the piece 0 the tooth s will continue to separate the splint, the same passing with the piece through the groove to until the butt-end of thepiece e is reached. The splint being then out off from the piece 6, the latter can be passed through the groove to again, and so a on until used up. The nearer the lever a is placed to the blockAthe thinner will the splint be. Splints made in this way need no shaving, are of uniform thickness, and are parallel with the grain. They are therefore very durable and cheap. The lever n may be connected with a pitman by means of the wrist-pin o, and
run by steam or water power. The pieces are fed by hand, or feeder attached to draw in the piece.
We claim as our invention- The block A having the groove a, and combined with the pin 0, standards 2', adjustable boxes 0, and lever it having the tooth s and groove a, all arranged and operating as speci lied.
