\VILLIAM DAWSON, OF HUNTINGTON, CONNECTICUT.
IMPROVEMENT IN CIGAR-MACHINES.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM DAWSON, of Huntington, in the county of Fairfield, in the State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Machine for Making Cigars; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a sectional longitudinal elevation. Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view. Fig. 3 is one side view; Fig. 4, the other side view; Fig. 5, a plan Fig. 6, a sectional view of the bed detached; and Fig. 7, a plan view of the bed detached, similar letters referring to similar parts in each.
A is the frame-work of the machine; B, shaft on which the wheel 0 and the gearwheel F are placed; 0, wheel, with a cam-slot, D, on its face, to work the cutter and presser, and also with a projecting plate, E, on the side of its periphery, to throw the clutch M in contact with the roller I; F, a gear-wheel on the end of the shaft B, gearing into the pinion H on the driving-shaft G; I, roller working loose on the shaft G, to which the strap J is fastened, for giving the forward motion to the bed.
M is a connecting-clutch, which works the roller I when thrown in contact with it by the projection E. It is disconnected by an arm on the bed striking and moving the lever N.
K is the movable bed, working in guides on the top of the frame, L, flexible apron fast ened to and moving with the bed 5 O, the hopper for containing the supply of filling. The filling is carried forward to the cutter and presser by the feeding-apron I, worked by the rollers Q Q Q Q. The apron is moved forward a distance proportioned to the size of cigar required by the pinions R R, the ratchetwheel S, the catch T, the lever U, and the pin V on the back of the wheel F.
WV is the cutter and presser, connected with the lever Y by the rod Z. It is moved downward by the cam-slot D, working the pin X on the lever Y, and moved upward by the counter-balance a when the pin is released from the slot.
b b are two forming-rollers for rolling up the cigar. They are worked by pinions on their ends gearing into a rack on the inner side of the bed, as shown in Fig. 6. The outer roller works onthe arms cc, and is moved away from the inner one when the cutter and presser W is moved downward, so as to allow the fillings to be pressed down onto the flexible apron L- It is brought back to its first position by a spring on the upward movement of the cutter and presser.
d d are the shaping-dies, to give form to the cigar. The inner die is permanently placed. The outer one is movable by being placed in a frame, and is moved by the strap 0 and lever f a sufficient distance from the other to permit the cigar to drop between them when completed.
g is a counterbalance to bring back the bed K by the straph when the clutch M is disengaged.
v; is an aperture in the flexible apron L, to allow the cigar to drop through.
The operation of the machine is as follows, viz The feeding-hopper 0 being supplied .with fillings and the machine put in motion,
the cutter and presser W is moved by the cam-slot in the wheel 0, and cuts off the required amount of fillings and presses it between the rollers 1) onto the flexible apron over the shaping-dies d (1. The wheel (J in its revolution brings the projection E into contact with the clutch M, and throws it in connection with the roller I. The strap J moves the bed K forward. The flex ible apron L, attached to it, moves under the forming-rollers b b and over the shaping-dies d d, rolling the fillingandgivingitapropercompression. The
wrapper is placed diagonally on the apron 1), (after it has moved a short distance,) and is wrapped around the filling during the fur ther movement of the bed, the shaping-dies giving to the cigar its proper form. NVhen the bed K reaches nearly the end of its travel, the forward die (I is moved by the strap e and lever f away from the back die, allowing the cigar to fall through the aperture i in the apron L into a box or other receptacle. When the bed K completes its forward movement, the lever N disconnects the clutch M from the roller I, and the counter-balance 9 brings the bed K back to its first position,
and the machine repeats the operation, as besubstantially as herein described, and for the fore. The cigars after leaving the machine purposes set forth.
are headed and out to length by hand. m T Vhat I claim as my invention, and desire to L VILLIAM secure by Letters Patent, is \Vitnesses: The combination of the forming-rollers I) b, I SAMUEL NoWLAN, the flexible apron L, and the shaping-dies d (I, FRANCIS S. Low. J
