This invention relates to a mechanical movement. One object is to provide a meche anism for convertlng a constant rotarymovement into a reciprocating movement having 5' a; comparatively long period of dwell.- A
ing parts,
further Object isto provide a mechanism ofthis general characterin which a slow'move-r ment in one directionwillbe coupled with a faster movement in the reverse direction, thetwo movements being separated by a dwell where no reciprocation willtake place in either direction. A further object is to accomplish theseresults without'the use of cams and with aminimum numberofmov- Referring to the drawings: I l Fig. 1 is a side elevation of my improved device;

element.
Theprinciple upon whichthe device oper-" ates isthe coupling of the driving shaft to the driven element through two mechanical stages; the first a linkage or equivalent de vice for giving to a movable pivot point a motion in a closed curve, a portion of which 15 substantially an arc of a circle, and the second a link having a length equal to the: radius of that are and joining the pivot point with the driven element. In the adaptation shown in the drawings the driving power is supplied from a shaft 10, preferably con stantlyrotating. A crank 11 is fixed upon this shaft, its crank pivot-12 traveling a-ta uniform" rate around a circular path 13. Spacedfrom the shaft 10 is a fixed pivot 14 upon which is a swinging bearing block 16. Pivoted to the crank at 12,'and provided with a slot 17 by which it may slide upon the block 16, is a lever 18 carrying at its end a pivot 1.
- the path 20 at'intervals.
' As the shaft 10 rotates, the pivot 19 will be caused-to move through the path indicated by dot and-dash lines 20 inFigs. 1 and 2, with a fastermovement on the right hand side of this path than elsewhere. 7 This is indicated by the short lines which intersect These lines are .by a 1ink'21,
spaced apartfat' distancescorresponding to twelve degreesrotation of the crank 11, and of course a wide spacing of the lines represents a more rapid travel of the pivot 19 than a close spacing. The pivot '19 is joined which the link is pivoted at 23, the driven memberbeing here shownas guided for reciprocation-in suitable ways 24:." Due to the proportions of the crankiand. lever being] with a driven ,member 22, to
about as shown, the lower part 25 of the between thecenters of pivots Hand 23, is equal to the radius of this arc.
During-the entire passage ofthe pivot 19 through the arc-shaped portion 25 of'itspath, the'link 21will swing freely'about its pivot-23 and will transmit no motion to the reciprocating I The utility of the device can be described most clearly with relation to its adaptation to onespecific use. I In the use chosen for illustration, the device is employed to operate the elevatoryof a wrapping machine. In certain machines forfwrapping articles in paper, the articles are fed into position upon a flat-topped elevator-which is then'caused to rise, forcing the articleagainst a piece of paper-previouslyplaced above it and intr0- (indicated by 26 in Fig.

As the elevator descends from the positionlof Fig. 2, it moves rapidly, represented in Fig. 3
by the steep slope 30 ofithe path.
