Application filed November 26, 1923, Serial No 676,977. Renewed September 29, 1925.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILHELM B. BRON- ANDER, a citizen of the United States, residing'at Brooklyn, county of Kings, and State specification.
This invention relates to an improvement in cigar bunch sha ing mechanisms and it has for its main ob ect the simplification of mechanisms of this character whereby costof construction and maintenance is creased and efficiency is increased; With this and other objects not specifically Inentionedin view, the inventionconsists in certain constructions and combinations which will be hereinafter fully described and then specifically pointed out in the claims hereunto appended. In the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification and in which like characters of reference indicate the same or like parts, Fig.1 is a side elevation of a device constructed'in accordance with the invention, with, certain parts removed; Figs. 2, 3 and 4' are similar views showing the parts in diflerent relation; Figs. 5 and 6 are opposite end elevations of the structure shown in Figs. 1 to 4 inclusive; and Fig. 7 is a fragmentary plan view of the shaping members when in coacting position.
-In carrying the invention into effect, there is provided a single cam-controlled actuator,
' a'plurality of shaping members, and interposed operating connections whereby movement' of the-actuator produces movements of the shaping members to cause them to coact on the ends of acigar bunch. In the best constructions, the operating connections move a part of said shaping members in one direction, and the other part in another direction. In the best constructions also, bunch trimming means are PI'OV1(lB(l, and this means also is operated by the same 'camcontrolled actuator, and interposed operating-connections The parts above mentioned may be widely varied in construction within.
the scopeofr' the claims for the particular device selected to ,illustrate the invention is tionship therewith.
mounted on the cigar machine in connection with which it is used. Pivotally mounted on the bracket 8 is an actuator 9gwhich has a rocking movement producedby a link 10 pivoted 'to one end of a lever 11, which carries .a cam bowl 12 tracking on a cam not shown but mounted on one ofthe cam shafts of the cigar machine in connection.
with which this mechanism is used.
aperture'in which a post 13 is mounted to slide. On the upper end of this post a head .14 is formed, and to this head are-bolted two shaping members 15 adapted to act upon opposite ends of a cigar'bunch.
At a point near thetop of having a head 18 at its upper end to win is bolted two more shaping membe'rs 15cc plementary to those carried. b ,the and adapted to coact with the rst. .two shap- Operative connections .are interp osed be- I the bracket a shaft 16 is journaled "therein, and upon this shaft is pivoted'a swinging bracket ll ino' members'when brought intofproper rela- I Y 1 tween the actuator-9 andthe-f'shaping mem-' bers 15 'for moving them in-'an d-- outof coacting relationship, a part-of said members being moved in one direction and a part in another direction. As shown, the shaping members 15which are bolted to the head 14 are given 'a reciprocating movement by means of a link 19, one end of which is pivoted at 20 to a boss 21 formed on the head 14. The other end of the link 19-is pivotally connected at 22 to the actuator 9 before referred to. At the proper time, the
actuator 9 is rocked on its pivot, and this rocking movement actuates the link 19, which, in turn raises or lowers the post 13, the head 14 and two of the shaping members 15, as the case may be.
The actuator 9 1s provided with acam surface 2324, the former being nearly radial shaping mechanism bracket adapted to be The bracket 8 is provided with a vertical 16 cam surface 23-21 at all times.
bunch is introduced between the shaping .members while the parts are in the position and the latter being concentric with the pivot upon which the actuator rocks. This cam surface is in contact with a cam bowl 25 carried on the lower end of the swinging bracket 17, and when the actuator 9 is rocked this cam device serves to swing the bracket 17 from the position shown in Fig. 1 to the position shown in Fig. 2 during the first part ofits movement, and'to hold it in the latter position during the latter part of its movement. A spring 26, the ends of which are respectively connected to a stud 27 on the bracket 17 and to a stud 28 formed on the end of the actuator pivot, serves to hold the cambowl 25 in contact with the A cigar shown in Fig. 1. "The rocking movement of the cam-controlled actuator 9. then begins, and lthe members 15 carried by the head 14 are Qraised to the position shown in F 2, while the shaping members 15 carried by the swinging bracket 17 are swung into the.
position shown in Fig. 2. A further rocking movement of the actuator in the same direction results in elevating the shaping members carried by the head 14 to their upper most position, the other shaping members being held stationary by the rolling contact of the cam bowl 25 on the cain surface 24. In this position the hunch is shaped, and upon a reverse rocking movement of the actuator 9'tl1e shaping members are separated in order that the bunch may be taken from between them. There is further provided bunchtrimming means, and this means is also operated by the same cam-controlled actuator which operates the shaping members. In the mechanism shown, both ends of the bunch are trimmed and consequently there are two bunch trimming members marked 29. One of the trimming members 29 is screwed to the upper end of an arm 30, fast on the shaft 16 before referred to; the other one is screwed to the upper end of a lever 31 also fast on the shaft 16. This lever 31 hasa short arm 32 which lies in the path of a stud 33 carried on an arm 34 formed on the actuator 9. A stop 35 adjustably secured in a boss 36' formed on the lever 17 limits the movement of the lever 31 in one direction,
"then rolling on the cam surface 24 and. the
pivot 22 is almost in line with the fulcrum of the actuator and the pivot 20. At this time the pin 33 has come into engagement with a short arm 32 of the lever 31 and a little farther rocking movement of the actuator 9 to. the position shown in- Fig. 4
throws the trimming members into operation. When the actuator has rocked in the opposite direction the trimming means 15 first thrust back to its normal position, then the post 13 is lowered, and during the latter part of its down movement the bracket 17 is swung outwardly to release the shaped prising a single cam-controlled actuator, a
plurality of shaping members, and interposed operatingconnections including a cam device operating a part of said shaping members.
