This invention relates to-power operated screw drivers and the like and more particularly to screw drivers for tightening the screws which are used to attach parts such as pole pieces to the interior cylindrical wall of a tubular body such as the cylindrical field frame of a dynamo electric machine.
One type of power driven screw driver to which the present invention may be applied is described in the patent of Baker and Shaw No. 1,716,865, patented June 11, 1929. This patent discloses a work holder for receiving a dynamo field frame to which screws loosely secure a plurality of pole pieces surrounded the held frame and movable outwardly to force the pole pieces tightly against the interior of the frame. The work holder is mounted on a turn table which is rotatable coaxially with respect to the field frame so cure the pole pieces to the frame may be located adjacent the screw driver bit. The
work holder carries fluid pressure operated means for forcing the clamping members against the pole pieces.
' It is one of the objects of the present invention to provide certain improvements in the work holder which maybe used with a mad as of the kind referred to. More particularly itis an object of the invention to control the fluid pressure operated Work clamping devices in response to the turning of the turn table or rotatable work support. T he advantage of this feature is to eliminate the manipulation of a valve in addition to the turning of the work support for locating the screws adjacent the screw driver bit. Aside from eliminating an extra movement this invention assures that the work will be securely clamped by the work holder before the screw driver bit is applied. 7
A further object of the invention is to provide for removability of the work clamping devices that the work holder may receive any one of a series of interchangeable clamping devices adapted respectively to receive work pieces-of different dimensions.

The carriage 122 supports a bearing frame which cooperates with a cap 141 attached by bolts 142 to provide a bearing for a tubular work holder shaft 143 having a flange 1.44 attached by screws 145 to a cylinder 146. Cylinder 146 receives a piston 147 attached to a rod 148 \vhich passes through packing 149 secured by a plate 150 attached to the cylinder 146. The rod, 148 is threadedly connected with a rod 151 which passes through the shaft 143 and has areduced portion 152 which passes through a wedging member 153 having a plurality of extensions 154 which are T-shaped in cross section. The wedging member 153 is clamped against the shoulder 1530; of the rod 151 by nuts 155. Each T-shaped extension 154 is disposed obliquely with respect to the rod 151 and is received by a similarly disposed 'T-shaped groove provided by a clampingblock 156 which is pivotally connected with ears 159 integral with a circular plate 160. Plate 160 has studs 161 received by notches 162 in the flange 163 of the shaft 143 whereby the shaft and plate are rotatively connected. Plate 160 is provided with pins 164 which are engaged by the end of a field frame or other tubular body supported by the work holder and which locate the body endwise with respect to the clamping mem bers 156. The plate 160 is attached to the flange 163 by rods 165 pivotally connected with the flange 163 and having oblong heads 166, which when turned in the position 166a in Fig. 8 are received by notches 167 provided by the plate 160.

end of'the cylinder. The rod, 171 supports a rotatable coupling 176 ha *ing passages 177 and 17 8 in communication respectively with passages 172 and173 of the rod 171. Passages 177 and 17 Sale connected by pi 36S 179 and 180 respectively with ports 181 an 192 respectively of a valve body 183 having also an intake port 184 and vents 181a and 182a. The body 183 is attached to. a bracket 185 socured by screws 186 to the table and receives a valve cylinder 187 attached to rods 188 and 189 which pass respectively through stuffing boxes" 190 and 191. The rod 189 carries a roller 192 bearing against a cam 193 attached by screws 194 to the cylinder 146. The roller 192 is'urged against the cam 193 by a spring 195 bearing at one end against a plate 196 secured by a screw 197 to the bracket 185, and at the other end against a cup shaped extension of the rod 188.
The cylinder 146 is rotated by hand wheel 200 having its spokes 201 attached to the cylinder cover 170.
The work operated upon by this apparatus comprises the frame F and pole pieces P surrounded by fieldcoils C and secured by screws S (see Figs. 2 and 2a). Each pole piece P may be secured to the frame by one or more screws depending upon the length of the pole piece. If two screws S for each pole P are required, these screws will be arranged on a line parallel with the aXis of the field frame; and the screwsof the longitudinal rows of screws will be spaced the same with respect to the ends of the field frame. Therefore, as shown in Fig. 2 there will be two annular rows of screw heads accessible for tightening by the screw driver bit 71.
The field frame and other parts loosely assembled thereon is placed upon the clampin g members 156 while they are in contracted position shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 5. In order that the members 156 may be located in unclamped position the piston 147 must be located adjacent the right end of the cylinder 146. This will occur when the right end of the cylinder is connected with the vent 182a of the valve 183 and the left end of the cylinder is connected with a source of fluid pressure, through the pipe 179 leading from the passages 177 and 172 to port 181 then connected with intake 184'. V. This will occur when the cam 193 has been turned so that its notch 193a will receive the roller 192 which then bears against the surface 198?) of thecam.
After the work has been located upon the rotatable work holder as shown in Fig. 2, the hand wheel 200 is turned so as to bring the'plane of one of the longitudinal rows 'of screws into alignment with the axis of the screw driver bit 71. During the turning of the work into this position the cam 193 will have been turned into a position shown in Fig. 10 in which the notch 193a has been moved out of alignment with the roller 192 thereby causing the valve 187 to be located so that the port 182 will be placed in communication with the intake 184 whereby the right hand end of the cylinder will be connected with a source of fluid pressure. This will cause the piston to move from the position shown in Fig. 5 toward the left in order to move the wedging member 153 toward the left and the clamping members 156 outwardly to force the pole pieces firmly against the field shell F to retain the work upon the clamping members.
The handle 127 is turned so that the vertical plane of an annular row of screws is in alignment with the screw driver axis. Then but further movement of the pedal downwardly causes further downward movement of theshaft 42 and driving clutch member 59 which is caused to engage the driven clutch member 65 through the yielding action of a spring 55. The spring 68, which operates normally to maintain the clutch member 65 separated from. the clutch member 59 yields to permit the clutch members 59 and 65 to engage. When the clutch members 59 and 65 are brought together the ridges 67 of the former will be received by the grooves 66 of the latter and motion will be transmitted from the shaft 42 to the bit 71, thereby causing the screws S to be tightened. When the screw S has been driven home the clutch 65 will cease rotating and the clutch member 59 will slip upwardly over the clutch member 65 due to the fact that the clutch members are only .yieldingly held together by the spring which permits the clutch member 59'to moveupwardly along the splines of rod 51 so that its ridges 67 may slip out of the notches 66.
l/Vlnle the clutch members 59 and are engaged to drive the bit 71, the lost motion between'the bit holder 72 and the stop screw 69 is .taken up. Therefore while the operator is pressing the pedal to maintain the bit 71 in engagement with the screw slot, motion is transmitted along the shaft 42 nonyieldingly to the bit 71. Therefore when tightening a screw, the bit 71 does not yump out of the screw slot when the clutch member 59 jumps up out of engagement with the clutch member due to overload. This feature is advantageous since the screw-slot is not injured by the present device when the clutch slips, it might be in screw tightening devices where the screw dri er bit is applied to the screw under yielding pressure.
The hand wheel 200 is turned again to bring" the next screw of an annular row vertically below the bit- 71 and the pedal 80 is pressed in order that the bit 71 will operate upon a seccnd screw. 'lhese'operations are repeated until all of the screws in an annular row have been tightened. 'Then the wheel 200 is turned in the same direction until the notch L364 will be located adjacent the roller 192. When this'occurs the spring 195 will be released to cause the valve 187 to move toward the right in 10 in order to connect the port 182 with the vent 182a and the port- 181 with the intake 1 Conse rpiently the left hand of the c V ider will be connected with a source of fluid pressure and the righthand end with atmosphere thereby causing the wedging member 153 to move into non-clamping position so as to' permit ready removal of the work.
.device from the work holder shaft 143 in order that another of different dimensions may be provided in order to receive work differing. in dimensions from that previously operated upon, the nuts 155 are removed from the rod 152, and the rod or pins 165 are turned so that their heads are in. the position 166a registering with the notches 177 of the plate 160. This permits withdrawal of the plate 160 and parts attached thereto from the flange 1630f the shaft 143 and the wedging member 153 from the rod 152.
