BRICK MACHINE.' l
Application med August 5, 192e. serial No'. 127,234.
This invention has reference to certain new and useful improvements in brick machines and pertains more particularly 4to a brick machine for ornamenting the surface or surfaces of the brick.
The principal object of the invention is to provide a brick machine which has novel and improved means for .ornamenting the surface of the brick by roughening same, and
,more especially to pick out particles of the clay by means of a device which latter is positively rotated during the feeding and pressing of the clay and which carries a plurality ofl picking elementsthemselves bodily movable with the device, but capable of rotation or movement independently of the device.
A further object of the invention is to provide a device of this'character which may be easily applied to existing types of brick machines andvr properly ladjusted Arelative That theinvention may be more fully understood, reference is had tothe accompanying drawings `forming a part of the present description'vand illustrating a preferred embodiment of the invention, in which;-

form ofY picker In proceeding in accordance with thepres! yof a press ofk The mechanism embodying my invention v supporting bary 3, being ing the I parts L frame and has connected thereto the hand thread on the other side,
pose of making close 1 and l minute adjust ments. The holding member ent invention, `1 indicates thelmouth and. die *l standard manufacture.
"It i y is supported therefrom by means of the arms-.1 j
or bracketv members .2, and lincludes the horipzontalsupporting' bar 3 Iand the'vertically extending ybracket membersf4 movable on vsaid bar, theseelements forming the lsupporting frame of the mechanism. The supporting bar'isconnected to af plurality of the arms or lbracket members 2, andv other of thearms or bracket members 2 are connected tothe lower portions of. thel vertically eX- tending is supported from the press.
` This frame forms .the supporting means bracket members 4, so. that the ,frameI j for a pair of ornamenting vmeans for the l sides of the column of clay, as it passes from the die to the usual conveyer mechanism.`
stated" hereinbefore,l ythe vertical Vbracket members 4 are movable `on the horizontal apertures 5, lthrough which. bar 3 passes, set
provided -with the l screws 6 beingprovided forlocking or hold-'zV in adjusted position. These vertical bracket members 4 also `have the Journal openings -7. The hub portions 8 of gears 9 bear against the `.vertical bracket members `4, these gears 'beingslidably keyed, :ff
by means of a long `key-way` 10,v to they hori- Izontallyextendingoperating shaft 11. This shafty 11 extends beyond the supporting l sprocket 12, which .is driven by chain or other flexible connection 1,3A
Y from driving sprocket 14, which-is oprativel vconnected to the conveyer mechanism asv shown..
.Secured to the top of'each bracket member adjusting ortension screw 16 which `hasfa right hand .th-read on one side andV a left for the purto the supporting bar 3 by means of set screws 18v and is provided/with the bifurcated or forked portion19 which lits between the collars 20 on the shaft rigid. l Each of the vertically extending bracket; members is provided with the lateral extension,21 bored-as at `22 to provide a bearing for the verticalfshaft 23,-r this shaft having a gear 24on .its upper end yinmesh with' 4 1s the bracket 15 throughvwhichpasses the ii" 17 is securedil the shaftll, so as to hold l gear 9 on horizontal shaft 11. Secured to the lovvei'uend.v of each vertically extending bracket member 4 is the horizontally extending plate member 25, Which is formed with ,thceflapent-ure 26j-opening .th-rough the ybottom thereof. This aperture/f receives the j ouriial extension 28 of bearing plate 29, which is means of the'"sci-"ewsvr 30, the journal extension 28 f 10 adjusted in position by providing a journal for the lower end 'of the vvertical shaft 23, Which Lis provided `With `,the vgrease side of' the frame -by` the nut and screw vconnection Withthe', flange, as shown, extend upwardly from the ,conveyer frame and `have VT-heads to supportfthebeaiing for the horizontalkr shaft 32, this shaft being... positioned nism. Additional braces (31 extend to the frame Where'they l are adjustably connected .bythefslot and bolt connection 31. This horizontaal s li'aftis provided With the drivingsprocket 33 Vonthe 'other side` which is :driven by ythe'cha'in or 'other' flexible connection from the sprocket .1 84 on the other side of slrafft"11.f"This shaft`32 Vhas the means described'on each side to permit raising and"loaver'ing.` i
' {Theshaft `32 and, also vthe. shafts 23 Aeach liaverigidly securedthereon, `heads or disks still 4saine can rotate or Vmove independently `ofthe heads, which effects a varying picking or digging action infthe body of clay.
v ",fiifFigures 7,' '8 and I9 -of vkthe vdravviifigs a modified form of theinve'ntion is'fdisclosed has VVa series lofshafts 1v511 secured to heads52,
- but one of tlie'flatte'r lbeingshovvn. As' `shown .qn Figuresfandw;hub's`r53 .are provided *which* freely rotate'on "the shaft',` 51 and ivihiicl-i areprovided `v'vitliyradial threaded openings threadedjly `receiving the 'picker' ele- .in ents ii4-vil-iich*v latter "are held jlock nuts ,'55 onto the {l-nbs. "Other hubs '56 farev loosely fino'unted 'onvtlie' shafts '151 and fare Vprovided' l..with-ipicker blades 157 which extend Aradially and which are set at an.
angle Kto' Ithe faXes It -f "f ll be *noted* that in i ithis'fffoifintpff Ithe' entio'ii v"the picker ele- :ments 54' alterlnate -With the picker- :blades The-'blades 57--bf l'each liub 156, are relativelystaggered; to'tih-i'isproduce a corre- .of the picker spending effect in roughening of the surface iof the brick.
' ln Figures 10 and l1, a still further modivlied form of the invention is disclosed and wherein the `piclter devices are; :formed in their entirety .ofbla'des 60 .off relative staggered form mounted on hubs 6l, the latter be'ing'ffreely rotatable on'sliafts 62, 'carried by heads Vpicker blades 60. are like the blades 57 of Figure 7 Figures 10 and l1 Vdisclosing the pickerdevice as composed entirely of blade pickers yas distinguished from Figure 7 wherein the blade v.pickers alternate lWith toothl pickers ,54.
Y In operation, the column of clay is forced out of the press and is subject totheaction devices on the opposite sides and 'top fthereof, "the picker .devices being 63 on the shaft 64. In this forni ofthe invention it will be seen that the- .rotated in. afdirectio'n opposite to that vin i Which the clay moves. The `picker devices in veach form of .the ,invention are positively and bodily moved ivithrespect toy thebo dy yof `clay,"butl it Will be noted vthat the. pickers themselves ,caniotate independently of' the body rotation of the picker' device, which thus `produces varying effects Which are eX-y ceedingly ornamental and attractive.
"The invention thus aords a compound movement; of `the pickers, or ornallenting devices, which/latter are bodily rotated l and kat the same time upon` .enteringttheg-clay,
move independentlyl of the devices .them-` selves, to provide a dragging action ofthe pickers, and thus vproduce varying lfee'cts, as distinguished from a set or regular effect.
