Referring to the drawings, 20 a base having` supporting pedestals 2l and 22 connected with and supported with head 23. The head 23 provides a cylinder 24, and a piston rod bearing 25 concentric withthe cylinder for receiving a piston rod` 26 attached to a piston 27. Except for the piston rod bearing 25, the cylinder .24 is closed at its lower end and the upper end is closed by cover 28 attached by screws 29.y The pis ton 27 is actuated by a compressed `fluid such. asair which is introducedy in the usual manner `upon the upper and lower'sides of y thepiston by means ofl pipes 3.0 and- 311espectively connected with a supply pipe 32 byl means of, a valve 33 which selects pasl communication between pipe 32 and either one of pipes 30 `and S1.
'Ifhe-y pedestal 22 supports collars 4 0 and 41' which may be mounted in, any desired position of adjustment by means of set screws 42 and drespectively. Between the collars, 40 and ll there is located a hub 4:4 of bracket 45 y. which carries at its free end a bearing.
4:6. The hub 4A is provided with a notch 47" for receiving a lug 4.8 extending from the f collar 40.v Thus therotation of the bracket 4 5 is limited. The bearing 46 supports a plunger` 5()` carrying adjacent itsupper end a collar 5l. A. spring 52 is loc-ated between the bearing` 4:6 and the collar 51 attached to theplunger and tends to press the plunger upwardly toward a pressure block 53 attachedv by a set screw 54; to the pistonv designates block 60 is adapted to receive one or more armature shaft supporting blocks 63, the size of Which depends on the size of the armature to vbe operated upon. The block 63 is provided with a central bore 64v for receiving an armature shaft, the bore being coaxial With the plunger 50. Block 63 is provided With a shank 65 Which is received by an aperture in block 60 which is also coaxial With plunger 50.
For the purpose of locating an armature core the block 60 is provided with a transverse radially extending bore 66 for receiving' -a. pointed plunger 67 having a head 68. 'A spring 69 retained by plug 70 bears against the headof plunger 67 L For the purpose of guiding certain transversely and radially movable elements there is provided a. guide block 71 Which, refer-` spaced from the block 60 to provide a space which is occupied by* a cammingring 76 which is journalled on the exterior of the ring 72 of block 71. The camming ring 76 is provided with a` circular row of inclined slots 77 and With an operating handle7 8.
The guide block 71 supports ak circular' plate 80 having a fiange 81 and a hub' 82 which spaces the flange 81 from the.,upper surface of the guide block 71. The plate 80 isA attached by screws 83.A The space between the block 71 and the flange 81 is occupied by a camming plate 84 which is journalled on therhub 82 and is provided With a circular row of inclined slots 85 and with an operating handle 86. Plate 84carriesa stud 87 having a reduced upper end 88.
The plate supports a semi-cylindrical bracket 90 attached tothe plate byscreyvs The innerV Wally -92 of the kbracket 90 ing a fulcrum for a semi-circular plate 95 provided with a semi-circular notch 96 for receiving the plunger 50. When the plate 95 is in the positionl shown in Figs. 3, 4 and 5. The plate 95 is actuated by handle 8 6 by means which includes t-Wo spaced leaf spring members 97 and 98at-tached screw 99: to an extension 100 provided. on the plate 95.
The springs 97 and 98 normally bear against opposite sides of the reducedend 88 of stud 87. Obviouslytheplate 95 is rotated by operating the handle 86.l
Apparatus for indexing the commutator which is assembled by means of this machine includes a pointed indexing slide 101, which slides in a notch provided in a boss 103 extendingupwardly from the plate 80. The slide 101 is maintained in position by means of a plate 104 having a slot 105 for receiving a handle 106 attached tro the slide 101. The plate 104 is attached by screws 107 to the boss 103. The showing of this apparatus in F ig. 1 has been omitted for sake of clearness.
-During the assembly' of the commutator upo-n the armature shaft, the bar conductors of the armature are clamped in position by apparatusWhich includes a plurality of slides 110, each ofy which slides through one of the spaces or notches 74 provided' in the guide plate 71. Each slide 110 is provided with an inclined'end surface 111 formed according to the inclination to the vertical of the armature conductois. Eachy slide is provided with a. stud 11.2 received by one of the inclined camming grooves 77 of plate 76. yReferring to Figs. 4, 6, 7 and 8, rotation kof the handle 78 clockwise Will cause the slides 110 to move from the position shown in Fig. 6 tothe position shown in Fig. 8.
The apparatus for locating the ends of the armature conductors correctly preparatory to receiving the. con'nnutator includes a plurality of radially movable slides which move in the notches 74. Each slide 115 is vprovided with inwardly projecting fingers 116 and 117 (see Fig. 7) and each slide carries a stud 118 received by one of the notches 85 of the plate 84. Rotation yof .the handle 86 counterfcloclnvise Will cause the slides115 to move radially inwardly for the purpose of locating the ends of the armature as Willbe explained more fully here# inafteri'p' Y A f Mode of operation.
The machine operates upon an armature` 120 havingv a. slotted coreV 121 mounted on; a shaft 122. The machine is conditioned as shown in Figs. 1 and 6. The armature is located in recess 62`With the lower end of shaft 122 received by block 63. Block 63 isinterchangeable with other blocks of varyingdimensions so that the shoulder' 123 (see Fig. 4) of the shaft 122 Will be located the proper distance vfrom the bottoni of recess 62 'in' order to locate armatures of different dimensions properly with respect to the fixture. The armature 120 is turned so that the spring pressed pin 67- is received byfone of the c'ore slots 124. The
armature is now located so that the upper end of shaft`122 is exposed and the ends ofthe armature conductors ready to be ackcurately locatedv soa-s to receive the coin-- 1nutator.` Each 'conductor ylead includes a straight portion. substantially` parallel With shaft 122 as* shown in Figs. 1 and 6.

" commutator is angularlyadjusted softhat the index` slide 191 points to one/,of the insulating' segn'ients between the commutator-bars. f 1
Then; theI handles 78 and`86` are moved from the; lposition shown in Figs; 1 and 6 to the positionsshown in Figs. 2 and 4' to cause the slides 110` and 115 to move toward the armature intothe positions shown in- Fig.`
t and in Figs.` 7' and"8 respectively. the slides 1'15 move inwardly each one engages a pan: of conductor ends `125 `and7 126 and and to be located in correct angu'lalrposition so as' to be received by the proper commutarrlhe conductor ends are now driven over the shaft.
Thfeniovement of handle 86 from the position shown in Fig; 6 to that shown in Figs. 3 and t Will cause the platel 95I to be rotated intothe position shown in` these iigures the notch. 96v being aligned with the i plunger 50.. `By operating valve 33, fluid pressure is admit-ted to the upper end of cylinder and the plunger Will descend until the shoulder strikes the upper surface. of plate 95 which limits further downward movement of the plunger. The operation causes the commutator to be driven over the shaft as far as' shown in Fig li. The conductor ends have been entered be: tween the risers.
Thile the fluid pressure is turned off the handle 86 is returned to the position shown in Fig. 6, to retract the locating slides 115 and the plate 95, While the slides 11() remain in position shown in Fig. 8, to prevent any of the conductor leads being pulled away l from the commutatorin case a lead should sticl to a slide 110. This operation removes the bars 115 from the pathof movement of the commutator and the path 95 from the path of movement of the plunger shoulder 55. Then the handle 78 can be returned to the position shovvn in Fig. 6 to rotract the 'stripper slides 110. 1
Fluid pressure is admitted upon the up-A per sid'e et' pistonff Itofcaus'e! to: motie downwardly' until stopped by "the cylinder.v This operation `Will cause the commutator 12? toi be; 4forced down the shatt- 122 to the desired?
