tion of the shaft 32. A groove or slot 42 is cut on the inside of the cylinder 20 for the reception of the end of the knife blade.
The cam 41is provided with a series of gear teeth 43, which engage a rack 44 formed over the outer end of a longitudinally reciprocable rod 45 mounted in the sleeve The rear end of the rod extends beyond the gear 31 and is provided with a cap 45 between which and the gear is located an expansion spring 46. A head 47 on the rod, contacting the shaft 32, limits the inward movement of the rod. The end of the lever 19 bears on the cap 45 To the front of the carriage 26 is secured a ring 48 which is arranged to contact the front end of the cylinder and stop the forward advance of the carriage and thus position the knife at the proper point with respect to the cylinder, acting as a gage for determining the Width of the fan belt.- A strap 49 may be secured to the rear of the knife carriage and causes the lever 19 to withdraw the carriage as will be understood.
The operation of the apparatus is as follows. A cylinder of fabric and rubber or other material is placed within the cylinder 20 and is projected beyond the end of the cylinder. The interior of the cylinder may be roughened slightly to prevent turning of the fabric therein. The carriage being withdrawn, as shown in Figure 1, the operator depresses the treadle 17 which engages the single operation clutch rocking the lever 19. This exerts an inward movement on the rod 45, but the spring 46 is sufficiently strong so that the carriage will be moved forward without compressing the spring until the gage 48 strikes the end of the cylinder 20. In the meantime the ring 48 has engaged the end of the cylinder of fabric and pressed it back until flush with the end of the cylinder, at which time also the knife head is within the cylinder with the knife retracted at the line of the groove 42. The continued movement of the lever 19 now pushes the rod 45 forward and the rack 44 rotates the cam and projects the knife outwardly to perform the cut, the knife head being rotated during the entire operation by the motor 29 at a sufficient rate of speed to enable the cut to be completed. The lever 19 is now withdrawn and the can riagenioves backwardly to its open position. The cylinder of fabric is then pushed forwardly, discharging the cut fan belt down the delivery chute 50, and is ready for a new cut.
It is obvious that changes and modifications may be made as desired. The machine is adaptable for rapid and satisfactory operation, and while it is shown as limited to one size of belt, it may be adjusted to belts of various thicknesses, as will be understood. What we claim is:
