Z5 ATTORNEY. 24 v Patented June 24, 1930- NITED STATS t :QFF'ICE WILLIAM C. STEVENS, OF AKRON, OHIO, ASSIGNOR' TO THE FIRES' IONF. TIRE AND RUBBER COMPANY, OF AKRON, OHIO, A. CORPORATION OF OHIO MANDREL-POLISHING MACHINE Application filed J'une 17,
factured by rolling or applying vulcanizable rubber to poles or mandrels about nine or more feet long, and vulcanizing the tubes on the mandrels in heaters. Subsequent to the vulcanization the tubes are reversely stripped from the mandrels and completed by a splicing operation. Accordingly, it is desirable to maintain the surface of the mandrel clean and smooth so that the out? side of thefinished tube will be smooth andnon-pitted, The vulcanizingj action forms deposits on the mandrels which renders nec-' essary occasional polishing thereof to keep them in the desired conditlon.
It is the object of the present invention to provide-an eflective device for thorough- 1y polishing poles or mandrels as described above. The device is capable of general application to other uses than the specific one herein disclosed so that the accompanying drawings and the following description thereof are intended for purposes 6' illustration, the invention in its broadest aspects not being limited to the specific use-set forth.
Of the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a front elevation, partly broken away, of a machine embodying the invention;
' Figure '2 is-a plan, partly broken away, thereof;
Figure 3 is Figure 4 is a of the machine;
Figure 5 is a section on line 55 of Fig. ure 1; and
Figure 6 is a section on line 66 of Figure 1.
Referring to the drawings 10 represents a right end elevation thereof; part plan of the right end .;a suitable supporting table on which is mounted, at the left end, brackets 11 and 12 in which is slidably mounted a rod 13 carrying a center 14 journaled thereon for supporting one end of a mandrel, indicated'at M. Tensile springs 15, 15 normally urge 4 a gear 42 on shaft 31 meshed with f pivote 1926. Serial No. 116,576.
shifted by means of a lever 18 connected to a bracket 19 shiftable into engagement with a collar 17 fixed on rod 13, lever 18 being pivoted at 19 on table 10.
To support the other end of mandrel M' and to rotate the same, there is arranged a chuck 20 of hollow, conical shape into which chuck 20 bein' secured on a shaft 21 jour naled and shi able in bearing brackets 22 and 23 mounted on table 10 and keyed or r splined to a gear 24 held on shaft 21 between brackets 22 and 23 and through which shaft 21 maybe driven while being shifted back and forth in bearings 22 and 23.
.oneend of the mandrel M may be inserted,
Operable against the surface of mandrel M are sets of abrasive belts 25, 25 which areeach trained over pulleys 26 and 27 mounted; on brackets 28 on the rear of table 10 and which may be driven in pairs by gears 29.
secured to pairs of pulleys 26 and meshed with driven gears 30 secured on a shaft 31 journaled in bearings on bracketsr28 and 23. The lower pulleys 27 are preferably carried by arms 32, pivoted on brackets 28 r at 33, so that belts 25 are yieldably tensioned by the weight, of pulleys 27 and arms 32.
Rotation and shifting or reciprocation of mandrel M may be effected, respectively, by
- 52 journaled in a bearing llS 49. It will also be apparent ing the mandrel in the chuck and on center' 14, the forward a follower .47 recipi'ocable on table-1O and having a roller 48 thereon engaged-with a heart-shapedfcam 49 arranged to be rotated by a worm gear meshed with a worm 51 on shaft 31,-worm gear 50 and cam 49 being secured on a shaft 53 on the right end of bracket 28.
In operation, a mandrel M isinserted in the machine, clutch 38being disengaged, one
end of the mandrel being inserted in chuck 20, and center 14 being shifted by lever 18 against the-action of springs 15 to permit mounting thereon.-
It will now a pear that springs 15 through mandrel 4 toggle arm 43 and follower 47 urge follower roller 48 against cam that in mount- I reaches of belts 25 are depressed inwardly by the mandrel, pulleys 27 yielding upwardly to permit this action and also serving-to hold the belts 25 against mandrel M with considerable pres-" sure.
