G.'F. BL'UME.
DISTANCING DEVICE. APPLICATION FILED MN. 13, 1921.
Patented June 7, 1921.
- means belng in suits PATENT OFFICE.
GEOBGEYBED BLUME, F PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
ms'rnncme nnvrcn I supports, and more particularly to a novel i that changes in the means for distancing the motor base-with respect to its foundation, whereby the motor will be maintained in its proper position; The objectof'the invention is to provide a support of this character which may be forced into its proper supporting position, provided for anchoring the movable elements of the device, in their positions 'of adjustment.
Another object of the invention is to provide an improved method of adjusting a motor base with respect to its foundation, the method includingasecuring step, where by the motor will be maintained in a predeterminedposition.
With' the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the commation and arrangement of parts and in a the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood recise embodiment of theinvention herein isclosed, may be made within the scope of what is claimed, without do arting from the spirit .of the invention. 35
eferrmg to the drawings throughan adjusting device constructed in accordance with the ,prwent invention.
Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken at right an les to Fig. 1.. I
ferringto the drawing in detail, the reference character 5-designates a base of an engine, motor or the like which is to be positioned and secured to' its foundation, which in the present showing is indicated by the reference character 6 and has a plurality of bolts such as indicated at 7, secu in the foundation, the bolts being of lengths to extend through suitable openings in the base 5. I I v The distancing device includes an upper plate 8 which is provided with. an upper relatively straight surface, and a lower convex surface 9, the convex surface 9 being de-= as signed tobe positioned in the concaved up 7 Specification of Letters Patent.
Figure 1 illustrates a sectional view Patented J une '7, 1921.
a umuon filed January 13,1921. Serial No. 430,907.
- per surface ofthe central plate 10, the undersurface of the plate 10 being inclined as indicated at' 11 to cooperate with the upper inclinededge of the wedge member 12. The i plates 8 and 9 are provided with suitable openings to accommodatelthe bolts .7, while the wedge member 12 is provided with an elongated opening to accommodate the bolt 7,,andpermit of movement of the wedge "memberwith respect to the bolt 7 Thus 1t will be seen that due to the con caved surface of the plate 10 and the convex surface of the plate 8, the plates 8 and 10 are secured with respect to each other.
Grooves are formed in the lates 8 and 9,
the grooves beingdisposed a ong the outer edges thereof, and at points in proximity to the adjacent plate, w ich grooves are'provided for the purpose of receiving a suitother, and consequently insure against movement of the engine base. When the wedge member 12 has been moved to its proper position, it is to be understood that the nut 14 is moved to cause the same to bind on the upper surface of the base 5 to strengthen the connection between the members.
In carrying out the method, the plates 8 and 9 are positioned under the base 5, the
wedge member 12 being positioned over'the bolt 7. With the members in this position,
'thewedge member 12 is driven to its proper v position to level the engine base 5, and material' is welded in the grooves of the plates.
isclaimed as new is:-
1. In combination with a foundation and engine base,ia distancing device including a pair of plates, one of said plates having a concaved surface, the other plate having a convex surface positioned within the concaved surface, one of said plates having an inclined lower surface, a wedge member coiiperating with the inclined surface for moving the plates verticall and means for securing the plates and. w ge against movement. V
2. In combination with a foundation and engine base, a pair of plates, each of said plates having cut out portions formed in the edges, a wedge member operating un- Having thus described the invention, what I der the plates for moving the plates vertically, means for securing the plates and wedge member together, and means disposed Within the cut out portions for lock: ing the plates and wedge member against movement. V v
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto aflixed my signa ture in the presence of two witnesses.
