Referring to Fig. 1, the bases Qfithe machine carries'a frame b which is tilted at a suitable angle to the vertieal. In thissfra ne is journaled. the main driy ng shaft 0 which may be driven by any, suitable means, sueh as the pulley Z; At the lbacl; 9f the bed of the trainee is ari anged the-lexy erlinenibr 7' ee tig i.M d ;),btdhet1ieo: g 'neh l i t h llPR E mQP QI Qt Went (Fig. 4) is carriedby a plunger guided in suitable ways inthe-franie Z) and actuated fro n a crank m nthe shaft c by the pitman see Fig.
The-frame b is preyided with a sheet supporter table 0. For limiting the rearward moye nent of the sheet and insuring the properpositiening thereof in a fore and aft direction relatiyfefto-the die, straightedges as are elnpleyed, eaeh of which is formed of a strip 'i' angle iron against one flange of Which'the rear edge bf'the sheet is adapted to bear. t Then, thesheet is introduced into the machine with its real edge in Contact, with the straight edges, 'it'isreceii ed by the which is made to gripit and holdit firinly to feedfitllengthwiseef the table 0 under the reeipiocating punch member.
Referring mere. partieularly to Figs. 4 and 6 thisearrieneemprises a rack ar 4 having square teeth along its front edge. Near eaeh end of'the rack bar 4 is secured a supper-ting bracket Qproyided with a otedfpresseifoif sheet gripper The g i per is adapted t befQrced into gi 'ipping relationto the sheet by the bp retioaor the shaft 17 operatedby handle 18; 51- aniere detai ed ides pti hei th v s -Pre n its eperatien attention is directed to the abei i mentioned" United States Patent N b. 1,445,- 718; 'l h e carrier is inoyed longitiidin with respect to the table 0 by meehani driven fljOlllthQ inain shaft 0. To this e e sha t; Q, s b'wn, ha ec r e to a sp reeket wheel 20 which. drives a chain'2l which inltiii n drives a spl oeket wheel 22 (seelt e l 3. 91 "T procke hee 22 s se ured to, a, b i ledes 2 wh c me he with and driy es' beveled gears; 2 k and 25, respeetiyely, in epppsite di 'ectien abQut the sha t 6 be. hifc theg ar find a l e e y' b nte r Either of the. gears 24 and 25 may be secured in driving-[relation to thesl al f t 26 by a elutchjn en berQ'Tmeunte rilpe i hsis a ft 2Q.el k lmomb eale g id I U intobherativ relatiiini to either ()fthe gears 24-017' 25 by mech nism w ch w l b more fully. deseigibed' helieiiiit -t i The lutch 2 m y. be jfany suita 'typs, 2 x ple, a -derib le fiZiCtlQIl cluteh, the opposite sides Of which are Qqnstrueted and o p lfate a Sh wn U- patent to Johnson 40 s emed e t s ts 7 n sti g, ith a gear 28 loosely mounted on shaft 29 and adapted to drive sprocket wheel 30 through a suitable yielding or slip coupling.
The slip coupling shown, which is of the friction type, includes friction discs 31 and 32 engaging opposite faces of the sprocket 30, the disk bearing against the upper face of the gear 28. In order to maintain the proper amount of friction between the discs 31 and 32 and the sprocket 30 and gear 28, av spring is provided. This spring exerts a yielding exial thrust against a nut 3t secured on the shaft 29, tending to lift the said shaft and thereby holding the discs 31 and and the sprocket 30 with the desired degree of pressure between the gear 28 and the friction member 85 carried by the support 36. The amount of friction may be regulated by adjustment of the nut 3% upon the shaft 29. To facilitate release of the coupling, a lever 37 is pivoted as at :38 and arranged to bear upon the upper surface of the nut 3i; so that by elevation of the outer end of the lever 37 the shaft 29 may be depressed and the coupling released.
A chain 39 (see Figs. 1 and 2) meshes with the sprocket 30 and also with idle sprockets t0, -11, t2, t3 and at, the ends of this chain being secured to the respective ends of the rack 4: of the sheet carrier, as shown in Fig. 6. The sprocket at is arranged to hold the chain 39 in operative relation to the sprocket 30 and to this end it is, as shown, arranged in proximity to the sprocket 30 in engagement with the opposite face of the chain 39.
The rotation of the sprocket 30 from the driving shaft c accordingly moves the chain 39 to shift the sheet carrier longitudinally of the machine to carry the material operated upon between the coacting punch members j, Z. This tendency to. move the sheet carrier is continuous throughout a complete stroke of the carrier during the retation of the shaft 0. But by reason of the slip coupling described above the feeding of the sheet carrier may be arrested or prevented to enable the punch members j, 70 to operate upon the sheet material.
Referring to Fig. L the means shown for intermittently checking or arresting the sheet carrier comprises pawl 15 slidably mounted in the frame so as to cooperate with the teeth of the rack 1. The pawl is operatively connected with one arm of a bell crank lever 16 which has the other arm connected by a link 17 with a lever 48. The lever as is connected by a link 49 (see Fig. 1) with a lever 50, also pivoted into frame 7) and carrying a roller 51 bearing upon cam 52 secured to the shaft 0. The free end of the lever is preferably shaped as a handle 50 so as to facilitate manual operation of the retaining pawl 45. A spring 53 holds lever 48 in such position that the roller 51 on lever 50 normally presses against the cam The pawl 45 normally retains the rack (and also the carrier) against advance; but on each rotation of the shaft 0 the forward end of lever 50 is momentarily depressed by the cam and the pawl t5 is withdrawn from the rack, releasing the rack but quickly returning it to engagement with it. There is thus effected an intermittent advance of the sheet across the machine, the several increments of advance depending upon the distance between the teeth upon the rack.
Suitable means are desirably provided for cutting away the scrap at the back of the sheet after the operation of the punch members j, 7a. Mechanism for this purpose is fully illustrated in my aforesaid Patent No. 1&45518 and is thought to need no detailed description herein. It is desirable to provide automatic means to release the sheet material from the carrier at the end of each stroke to permit the sheet to fall back to its new position against straight edge .11. Suitable means for this purpose are also illus trated in said Letters Patent No. 1,445,718.
My invention also contemplates the provision of mechanism whereby the clutch member is automatically shifted to effect the reversal of the feeding movement of the sheet carrier whenever the carrier has completed substantially a full stroke in one di rection. To this end the shaft 17 of the carrier is provided with end portions (3") each of which is adapted to engage and shift an arm (51 pivoted at 62, (see Fig. 1) at the end stroke of the carrier. The arms 61 are arranged at opposite sides of the machine and are connected by a link 63 (see Fig. 2) so as to be shiftable simultaneously. Movement of the carrier at the end portion of one stroke accordingly etfects the movement of both arms 61 in one direction while the movement of the carrier on the succeeding stroke moves the arms (31, in the opposite direction etc. Arm 61 (referring to Fig. 2) is connected by a link (34 (Figs. 1 and 2) to one arm of a bell crank lever (35 (see Figs. 2 and The other arm of the lever is connected by a link 66 to the clutch member 27. The shifting of the arm 61 by the carrier accordingly effects shifting of the clutch 27 to secure first one of the gears 2t or 25 into driving relation to the shaft 26 and then the other. to thereby cause the shaft 26 to be driven alternately in opposite directions and thereby automatically change the direction of the feeding movement of the carrier at the end of each stroke thereof.
In operation, a sheet having been placed upon the table 0 so that the gripping means of the carrier will fall with its rear edge into contact with the straight edges .1, the oplit! operation. Atthe end of the stroke of the carrier, the scrap having been cleared away and the sheet having fallen back with its 'rear edge into contact with the straight edges, the carrier travels in the opposite direction. The operation of the mechanism on the rear movement of the carrier is the same as it was upon the advance thereof.
The automatic operation of the machine may be continued throughout "successive rows of operation by the punch memlbers j, 76 until the entire sheet has been operated upon. V
It will be seen that my invention results in a machine which is simple in construction, which requires no expert attentionto keep it in operative condition and which is quick and economical in operation. It is to be understood that this invention is not to be limited to the details shown and described and that -many modifications and changes may be made withoutdeparting from the spirit of my invention 'andthe scope of the appended claims.
