Specification of Letters Patent.
Application led February 24, 192g), Serial No. 360,616.
T0 all 'w ,7mm it may concer-n Be it known that we, .loiIN U. Sonnonnfrnn, a citizen of the German Republic, and JOHN Klamme, citizen ot the United States, and residents ot liliilwaukee, in the county ol hfiivlwaukee and State ot lWiscmisinl have invented certain new and useinl improvements in Fleshingli/laehines; and we do hereby declare that the tollmving is a l'ull, clear, and exact f'lescription thereot.
Our invention pertains to improvements in tleshing machines of that type illustrated, in Patent No. 1,235,697, granted' August T, 1917.
As pointed out in that patent, machines ot this character are designed to remove flesh from the inside oi raw skins and iurs, or to reduce the thickness thereo'l. ln view of the tact that it is extremely dillicnll, except for experienced work-men, to properly dress skins with an ordinary fies-hing ma Chine, adjustable guards are provided to render the machine more eliicient and to permit the same to be operated by the average vork-man. The principal object ot theinvolition is to provide a means 'l'or adjusting these guards in a much simpler manner than that used in the machine shown in said patent. i
An additional object oi the invention is to provide a simply constructed and eilicient arrangement for detachably journaling the fieshing kni't'e in the supporting trame o't the machine.
A still further object oll the invention is to provide an adjustable protecting plate which` while norl'nally in position partially encircling the l'leshing kni'le, can be swung to one side so as to allow the knil'e lo be ren moved from its bearings.
With these and other objects in view the invention resides in the novel leaturesol' construction, combination and arrangement ot' parts whieh will be hereinafter more particularly described and claimed as shown in the drawings wherein:
Figure 1 represents a side elevatkmal view Ot a portion o'l a flashing machine constructed in zufeordani'ze with our invention.
Fig. E2 is a plain view of the parts shown in Fig. l, the protecting plate being m seetion.
Fig. 31is a front elevational view, partly in Seetion, of the invention.
Fig. fl is a detail sectional view taken suhstantially on the Fig. 5.
Fig. 5 is a similar view on the plane of the line of Fig. et.
llig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 4, the axle retaining nut having been removed so as to show the axle in seetion.
@ur improved machine is designed to be mounted upon a suitable supporting frame, the upper portion l ot which is shown in the drawings and has a pair ot spaced vertical bearing standards 2 between which a rotary circular flashing knit'e 3 is adapted to be revolved by any suitable mechanism. in the present instance the means supporting the kniie il carries a` belt pulley 4 which is adapted to receive a suitable driving belt. limvever, it is to be understood that various other arrai'lgements may be used'ior mountingthe lieshing knife, such as b v the means shown in Fig. l ot the patent above referred to, Furthermore various changes may be parts o'lI the invention without plane of the line 4 4 ot made in other departing trom the principle thereol or sacrificing any o'l' the advantages.
llach oi the standards is provided with a bearing 5 having a Slot opening there,
into troni one side which the knife 3 is ily disposed therein. ment the leshing knife posed in assembled relation with respect to the axle 7, while at the same time it may be quickly and easily removed from between the spaced rigid standards Q.
iis may be readiljY seen trom Figs. 4. l and the outer tace ol each ot the standards 2 is provided with an annular ridge S surrouiuling the openingl 'l'orming the bearing 5, thus providing a, socket S). lhe portions oll the axle 7 that project beyolul the standards 2 are screw threaded and receive nuts ll), each ot' which has an annular flange il adapted to seat in the socket S). lVhen so that an axle 7, on journaled may be read- By such an arrange- 3 may bealway's i isthe. nuts V10 are in cooperation with the sockets l), the axle 7 within its bearings.
ln dressing a skin on the fleshing knife 3, the workman stands behind the machine and back ot an arcuate protector plate I2, which, when in protecting position extends 'from approximately the top center of the knife 3 to the. standards Q, and is approximately of a, 'width equal to the distance between the latter. rlthe lower end of this plate l2 has is effectively locked together by ay laterally extending attaching portion 13 which is vertically slidable between spaced lugs 14 formed on a carrying attaching end 13 is vertically slotted as at 16 to rece-ive a clamp bolt u17 projecting from the; "rrying plate 15. 'By means of this bolt 1T the protector plate 12 may be vertically raised or lowered so as tially concentric with the flashing knife 3.
One end of the :arrying plate 15 has a pair of hinge knuckles 18 which are disposed on opposite sides of similar knuckle 19 carried by one of the frame bars of the supporting frame 1 these knuckles being hinged means of a pintle 20.' The opposite end of the carryingplate 15 has a pair of ears 21 between which a securing bolt 22 may be swung to'lock the carrying plate to the supporting frame so thatl the protector plate 12 will be in operative pos'ition with respect to the fieshing knife. bolt being hinged to the frame 1 and having a wing nut 23 provides a quickly detachable locking means, although it is obvious that another similar arrangement would serve the 'same purpose. When the carrying plate 15 is locked as shown in several'figures of the drawings,that is to say when the protective plate partially encircles the fleshing' knife and prevents the workman from leaning thereagainst and being injured by its edge, it is impossible to disconnect the fieshing knife since the openings 6 into the bearings 5 are toivard the said protective plate 12. Therefore in order. that the tleshing n between the standards 2, the protective plate l2 is hinged as abovev described.
.The portion of thel fleshing knife on the opposite side of the standards from the protective plate l2 isprovided with a pair of adjustable guards 24, one of whichvisdis posed on veach side-Lot the knife andere shaped to conformV to the .peripheral edge thereof. As in the patent above referred, to, thesev guards y24 are designed to aid the workman injmore effectively dressing the skin or hide by Ineansof the knifejl, suchv guards being adjusted for-different types of..
skins and various .operating conditions. j
.The improved arrangement. for A adjustably supporting the guards ',24.isv clearly shown in the accompanying'drawings and since the structure' used for holding each of the guards is the same; that on one, side of the fleshing knife Will alone be described.4 The guard 24 is, provided with an ear 25 piv-` oted as at 26' to a head 27, the latter being formed onone end of a stem 28 and having an arcuate slot.29'\'vhich receives a set screw 80 extending from said ear 25. This set screw 30 obviously secures the guard 24 in different adjusted positions with respect to the head 27. Th stem 28 is slidable and `ro tatable in a hearing 3i carried by the upper plate 15. They I of the lever arm 32 to dispose it substanf The knife may be taken from or free, end of a lever arm 32, the lower end of the latter being pivoted as at 33 to one of vthe standards 2. The intermediate portion has a slot 34 receiving.
the shank of a set screw 35.
The bearing 31, and consequently the guard 24, is movable toward and away from the fleshing knife 3 a result of the pivotal action of the lever arm 32 and is Vheld, in different positions by said set screw 85. lVe claim: i f l.
