CHICAGO PNEUMATIC TOOL COMPANY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., CORPORATION OF NEW JERSEY.
COMBINED THROTTLE AND GOVERNOR FOR PNEUMATIC TOOLS.
Application led July 25, 1921. Serial No. 487,375.
To all whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, WILLIAM A. SMITH, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inCombined Throttles and Governors for Pneumatic Tools, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
The invention relates to pneumatic tools of that type in which a reciprocating percussive mechanism is combined with a separate motor for rotating the tool and the invention consists in the means for automatically governing the rotary motor and in the peculiar construction and arrangement of parts as hereinafter set forth.
In theA drawings:
Figure 1 is a central longitudinal section through the tool;
Figure 2 is a fragmentary sectional view taken in a different plane;
Figure 3 is a cross-section on line 3-3 of Figure 1;
Figure 4 is a cross-section in the plane of the throttle valve oniline 4 4 ofFigure 1;
Figure 5 is a similar viewshowing the ports and passages diagrammatically;
Figure 6 is a section through the ball valve on the line 6 6 of Figure 5.
Heretofore constructions have been devised in which an automatic valve is located in the conduit between the throttle and the motor and is actuated by back pressure from the motor to vary the opening. With the present invention the govermng valve is located directly within the'throttle, thereby simplifying the construction.
In detail, A is a barrel or cylinder of a percussive motor of any suitable construction, containing the reciprocating piston B. C is the anvil for receiving the impact of the piston, D the tool and E a revoluble sleeve or tool holder which is driven by a peripheral gear F Aintermeshing with the pinion G on a shaft H revolved by the rotary motor I, preferably of the gear type throu h the medium of the motor shaft I' and t e reduction gears I2 and Ia (Fig. 3).
The 'compressed air or other motive fluid, while operating both the percussivemotor and the rotary motor, is supplied through a connection J, and K is a throttle valve vided with anannular cham U engaging correspondin for controlling the supply. The valve'K .is preferably of the hol ow plug type havlng one end in communication with the Huid supply and being also provided with ports L and M for registration respectively with npassages O and P leading to the reciprocatory and rotary motors. the plug through the medium of a suitable handle, the fluid is turned on or off simultaneously with res ect to both motors.
For governing t e rotary motor it is essential to cut down the quantity of fluid supply when the motor is idling and to increase the quantit is effected y means of a valve placed within the hollow plug K, .said valve (being forced towards its seat by the pressure of the fluid supply and away"from its lseat by the back pressure from the rotary motor. As preferably constructed, a ball valve R is placed within the plug K adjacent toa seat S and is retained in this position by 'a perforated stop member T. Theplug K 1s of conical form and at the small end of this cone is an adjustable stop in'U which may be set to hold the ball omits seat .any amount desired. The lug K is proer S adjacent to the's'eat S and the longitudinal grooves S2 which allow the fluid pressure to pass by the. ball R when it is Withheld from its seat. The pin U has a threaded portion threads in the ,plug with a polygonal hea U2 at the outer end and a lock nut U3 for holding it in any position of adjustment. A spring V is sleeved upon the pin U and cooperates with the back ressure from the rotary motor to force the ball away from its seat. The casing W for the valve is preferably formed integral with the casing W for the rota motor. The valve K is inserted throng one end of this casing and the nipple connection J is attached -to this end by a cap or gland X. The spring Y engaging a coun-A terbore in the nipple J and bearing against the end of the valve serves to yieldably force the latter against its seat In operation, the pin U is adjusted so that the ball -valve R will be displaced a sufficient amount from its seat to furnishv the air `necessary for running the rotary motor without load. The pressure of the fluid supply on the opposite side of the valve R will normally hold the latter against 110 Thus by rotating in proportion to the load. This Aspring f trolling the pin will shift said valve away from its seat, admitting a larger quantity et air to the rotar motor. 'ihus the valve R will automatically chan e its position aoeorchI ing to load to sappy the requisite amount ci fluid.
Ey placing the automa-tie governing val-ve within the throttie, a'mnch more compact arrangement is obtained as 'well es asimpiie construction.
