As disclosed in the-accompanying,draw-1 l ingsLFfdenotes aframe of desired contigusure on such cable to reduce or condenseV ing `columns for standards 1.havingtheir up- -pef endpoains bifuroaed endswia the upper end o eachfof thefkerfs'Q closed by--f the cap or platej.` A Slidablyg.mounted in", 4'

The lowerebearings le rotatably support ymember serves. to maintain ,saidj bearings v separated. lhreaded jthrough .eachgoi the an larbor ory shaftl ,7 which extends beyond-v i theufraine and suitably fixed Vto theeX-v tended portion ofsaid arboreort vshaftis a Y pulley 8 or the like, .whereby saidpshaft Yor arbor may be coupled with a suitable source i of power'.v
The upper hearings 4 rotatably l 55' machine Aconstructed in accordance with 1 an Y v of the pulley 8.
dius fixed to the arbor or shaft 7 inwardly rlhe gears 10 and 11 cause the arbors or shafts 7 and 9 to rotate in uni* son but in reverse directions.
Fixed to the arbors or shafts 7 and 9 at a point between the standards or columns 1 ,are the discs 12 having their peripheries pr0- vided Vwith Vthe circumferentially disposed grooves or channels 14 extending entirely.
therearound with the groove or channel of one disc. registering with the groove or chan'- Vnel ofthe secondl disc. The relative posi- Vtions of the discs 12 may be readily regulated or controlled by the set screws 6 or the like hereinbefore referred to.
15 denotes a `suitably supported endless rrapron having its upper stretch a traveling toward n the discs 12 and substantially in longitudinal alinement with the bight of the discs Coacting with the longitudinal 'marginal portionsof the upper stretch a of the apron 15 are theV side boards 16 arranged e transversely in convergence toward the apron, whereby a trough is provided of oei-ve the work or cable as delivered lfrom said machine sothat the apron 15 will open i 'i atefto positively feed the cable or work to` which the upper stretch cy ofthe apron 15 constitutes a movable bottom.`
lThe apron 15 is directedV around suitably e supported pulleys or drums 17 and the shaft preferably of a .length to sufficiently approach a weaving or twisting machineto reward the discs 12. The work or woven strand or cable automatically i'inds its way into the substantially lcircular orifice formed by the registering grooves 14: and the discs 12 and as said work or strand passes between the discs, the pressure on said work or strand Yresults in a condensing and, stretching thereof whereby the cable cr strand is materially improved in ductility and resiliency and is increased intensile strength because each and everT strand of the cable or work isV made to closely contact or adhere to the.
strands in immediate proximity thereto and in suc'ha'manner that the tinning or coverine' of the strands becomes substantially homogeneous and continuous.
It is to belparticularly stated that my im-v provedjmachine is particularly adapted for use in the yreductionor condensing of a cable or work composed of loosely woven wlre strands delivered from the Weaving or 'twistthe cab-le defective. Y
The upper stretch a of theapron 15 is` ing machine as a hollow or tubular cable of the type used in the making of bed springs or the like. By having the springs 5 normally maintaining the discs 12V sepa rated, the production of the finished work at substantially a desired diameter is assured, and furthermore, should there be any undue obstruction or hindranceV oered to the action of the 'discs 12 asthe work passes therebetween, the springs 5 permit suflicient separation of said discs 12 to allow the work to continue therethrough. ,The springs 5 also act as cushions to lreepthe pressure of the discs 12 uniform throughout` an entire operation. In doing this the grooves or channels 14 in the peripheries of the disks 12 are maintained in constant alignment Vwith the marginal edges ofthe disks in 1coincidence at all times, thus correcting the' action produced by the varying pressurefon the cable going between ther discs 12. Y
Were the channels 14 not in strict alignment, the overlapping edge or marginal portion would bite into the cable and -From the foregoing description, it is thought' to be obvious that a wire working machine constructed in accordance with myk invention is particularly well adapted for use by reason of the rconvenience and facil-v ity with which it may be assembled and operated, and it will also be obvious that my invention is susceptible ofy some change and` Y modification without departing from the l 100l principles and spirit thereof and for Y this reason l do n-ot wish to be understood as limiting myself to the precise arrangement and formation ofthe` several` parts herein shown in carrying out my invention in practice eXcept as hereinafter claimed because it is .believed that my invention as'herein disclosed is of such characterY as topermit the reducing or condensing discs to have a"y plurality of peripheral grooves to permit the work or cables to be operatedupon in gang, or that aplurality of sets ofcondensing or reducing discs may be used to operate upon-a cable or cables in sequence.'
l claim v Y i Y A machineV for condensing andk reducingv loosely woven wirel cables comprising a frame, a pair of upstanding standards integrally formed with said frame, the upper end portions of the standards being loifur cated to provide vertical Yguideways, a plate secured to the "upper end of each of the standards for closing the guideways, a pair of vertically spaced bearing blocksfs'lidably mounted in each of thev guidewaysV for movement lengthwise thereof, the blocks of each pair havingv sliding movement'in the guideway one independently of the other, an expansible spring yinterposed 'between thek blocks of each pair for 'constantly urging" said blocks in a direction one from the other,
17,414,053- V t i L s Y "gj a member threaded through each of the plates and engaging an upper bearing block for adjusting the relative positions of the bearing blocks of each pair With a resultant regulation of the tension of the coaoting eX- pansible spring, Substantially parallel arbors supported by the bearing blocks, means for connectingsaid arbors for rotation in unison but in reverse directions, and coacting Y discs carried by the arbors and having regi's- 10 tering channels disposed entirely aroundthe peripheries thereof.
