guarantor:
n a e EDUARD EUCKEN, OF ALZEY, GERMANY.
rnAiisMIssIoN MEANS.
Application filed August 21, 1920.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that l, EDUARD EUoKnN, a
citizen of the German Republic, residing at Alzey, in the German Pie-public have in.- vented e a new and useful improvements in Transmission Means, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to means for trans mitting power from a source of energy to a wcr v st; approrzimatively as t angle with regard to thehase of the foundation, the counter-shaft of the transmission means being adapted to oscillate through a large amplitude as well with regard to the motor as with regard tothe working machine, the uniform stretching of the means of transmission, such as belt, rope or chain, being thus always ensured.
According to this invention the countershaft is carried by a frame system adapted to oscillate in two directions the pulleys or wheels of the said counter-shaft ensuring thus automatically the uniform stretchin of the means for tra smission thr ugh the pull of a weight acting in a direction opposite to the working direction.
in the accompanying drawing the invention is shown by way of example:
Fig. l is a side elevation of the improved defies.
Fig. 2 shows, on a smaller scale in elevation the frame in which the counter-shaft is mounted.
3 is a plan view of the frame supporting the frarmv for the counter-shaft.
The countershaft 5 standing at an angle of from $30 to 180 to the source of power a and to the working machine c mounted in a ime (7. adapted to oscillate around the osillating hearing which itself can swing with its frame F around a pivot g. The shaft 5 can thus adopt any required position within the sector l) (c and (Z) or (c(Z) in order to ensure the stretching of the means of transmission from a and e to rs iii ll ll fil l llelem Serial No. 405,189.
The automatic stretching is effected through the own weight of the transmission means if the angles of position are properly chosen. These angles of position give the desired amplitudes to the components of force acting in the directions towards the source of power and towards the shaft of the working machine. Unfavorable ratio of angles such as for example a5c in 1 of the drawing require the use of an auxiliary weight it the rope of which is guided over pulleys i and 7a and which effects the traction upon 0 and, in combination with the own weight of the transmission means, the traction upon a.
The most accurate regulation of the stretching which is thus ensured avoids any loss of power through slipping of the belts or ropes, any unnecessary pressure on the bearings, the tightening of the belt, and increases the security of service.
I claim Improved means for the transmission of power from a source of power, which is preferably mounted upon the same base of foundation as said means. to a working machine which is mounted at approximately right angles to said base of foundation comprising a counter-shaft, an oscillating frame in which said counter-shaft is mounted, an oscillating support for said frame of the counter-shaft, and means of transmission uniformly stretched automatically through pull resulting fromthe weight of the sup.- porting system, substantially as described and shown and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
