' MARKING DEVICE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
-Patented Feb. 22, 1921.
Application filed September 11, 1917. Serial No. 190;715.
To all whom z'tmtay con/e em:
Be it known that I, HARVEY M. MANSS, a
' citi'zen'of the United States, and resident of Cincinnati, county of Hamilton, State of Ohio,-haveinvented new and useful Improvements in Marking Devices, of which the following is v a specification.
My invention relates-to devices for marking articles, and particularly to that type of devices designed for marking articles comprising an elongated strip, strand or filament. There are several reasons for marking an elongated strip, strand or filament, such as a rope, at certain intervals; for example, marking for decorative purposes, marking to separate different lengths of the strip, strand or filament, or marking for purposes of identification, in which latter case a trade-mark is used.
It is an object of my invention to provide means for marking a strip, strand or filament at certain intervals, and a further and specific object of my invention is to provide means for movingsuch a strip; strandor filament, for example, moving it longitudi-- pointed outin thehereunto appended claims.
In the drawings, in which like characters indicate similar parts, Figure 1 is an elevation of a marking device embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a detail of the markers, and Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional view. of one of the markers. It is to be understood that while I describe one embodiment of my invention specificially for the purpose of interpreting my inventlon, I intend that I shall not be limited to the single embodiment described, but that my invention shall include such modifications, variations and adaptations as occur to those skilled in the art and which come within the scope of my claims.
A frame member 1 carries a moving wheel 2 mounted in bearings 3, and a strip, strand or filament 4 extends over the wheel 2 and is driven thereby. The strand 4: comes from the machine which forms it and passes between the whe'els 5. These wheels 5 are mounted in bearings 7 in the frame 1, and
have attached to them gears 6. These gears 6 mesh with gears 8, which are mounted in bearings 9 in frame 1. The gears 8 mesh with one another. Gears 6 and 8 are of such size that wheels 5 move-at the same speed. It is not necessary that the wheels 5be com plete wheels, but a rotating arm might be arranged to perform the same functions as are performed by the wheels 5. These wheels 5 have markers 10 mounted in their peripheries, for example, by being dovetailed therein, as shown in Fig. 2. The edges of these markers are curved as at 11 so that they fit closely together as thewheels 5 rotate, since the markers are mounted in the respective wheels 5 sothat they come together once during each revolution of the wheels 5. The markers are hollowed out as shown in Fig. 3, and within the recess so formed there may be positioned a pad 12 or any other means for carrying color to the strand to be marked. The upper and lower 16. The sprockets are proportioned so that A the rope is drawn between the two wheels 5 at the proper speed, which speed is preferably -the speed at which the markers move with the periphery of the wheels 5. The frame which, as illustrated, is substantially A-shaped, carries a guide wheel 17, j ournaled at 18, for carrying the strand as it passes from the wheel 2. A small sprocket wheel 19 is mounted upon the-arm 20, which is pivoted at 21 in the frame. The arm 20 is swung by turning the screw 22 which contacts with one leg of the frame and passesthrough a part 23 attached to the arm 20 for the purpose of tightening the chain. The color-carrying material 12 may either be,
such that it will continue to impress the destrand as it was being marked by the active marker. It is also apparent that the number of markers may be varied, and that they may be arranged to put marks first on one side of a strand, and then upon another,
without making a mark that extends all the way around or acrossthe strand.
What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is: 1. A marking device comprising an A frame, a wheel for guiding an elongated strand, wheels mounted on said frame near the base thereof for marking said strand, means on the wheels and in lme with said guide wheel for marking said strand, means also in line with said marking devices and said guide wheel periphery of said marking for further guiding said strand, said last means being at the apexof said frame, means connecting said marking wheels together and to the guide at the apex of the frame for rotating them together, the rotation being imparted by said strand and means for supplying said markers with color.
2. marking device comprising an A frame, two marking wheels mounted on said frame and connected together, means on the periphery of said wheels for simultaneously engaging and marking a rope, a guide near the base and a guide at the apex of said frame for guiding a rope between said marking wheels, means connecting one of said guides with one of said marking wheels, a third guide below the apex of said frame and means for applying color to said marking means.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification.
