TIME IND I'CAT ING MECHANI SM Filed Dec. 8, 1931 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 dwm w w' Patented May 19, 1936 TIME INDICATING MECHANISM Nicholas Hogenbirk, Chicago, Ill., assignor to The Electric Auto-Lite Company, Toledo, Ohio, a
corporation of Ohio Application December 8, 1931, Serial No. 579,676
7 Claims. (Cl. 58-26) The invention relates to time indicating mechanism and has particular application to time indicating means responsive to electric currents.
The invention has for an object the provision of means adapted to give time indication which are dependent for their operation upon some characteristic of the current supply.
The invention also embraces the provision of a prime mover responsive to electric current for driving time indicating means constituting a synchronous motor, the same having novel functional and constructional characteristics and embodying an arrangement wherein the motor is successfully brought into synchronism.
The invention contemplates the inclusion of means for damping any mechanical or magnetic vibrations and the propagation or transmission of such vibrations to other elements of the mechanism thus eliminating any objectionable audible Further objects and advantages are within the scope of this invention such as relate to the arrangement, operation and function of the related elements of the structure, to various details of construction and to combination of parts, elements per se, and to economies of manufacture and numerous other features as will be apparent from a consideration of the specification and drawings of a form of the invention, which may be preferred, in which:
Figure 1 is an elevational view illustrating an electric time indicating means of my invention with a portion of the outer casing being removed;
Figure 2 is a sectional view taken substantially on a line 2-2 of Figure 1;
Figure 3 is an enlarged sectional view taken substantially on a line 33 of Figure 2;
Figure 4 is a diagrammatic view illustrating the circuit connection of the prime mover and detail construction of the same;
Figure 5 is an isometric view showing the gear ing supporting frame of my invention;
Figure 6 is an enlarged detail view of a portion of the gear supporting frame;
Figure '7 is a modification of the motor illustrated in Figure 4.
I have illustrated my invention as incorporated in a time indicating device particularly a clock, but it is to be understood that I contemplate the use of the invention whenever the same may be found. applicable.
Referring particularly to Figures 1 and 2 one embodiment of my time indicating mechanism here illustrated as a clock comprises an outercasing l0 preferably of metal provided with a transparent or glass front I l and a back cover i2 riveted to the casing l0. Supported on the back plate I! is a frame piece l5 suitably secured in place by the ears I6, the frame l5 extending to the front of the clock and carrying the calibrated time clock face l8 which in the illustration shown acts as means for supporting the front glass II.
A plurality of studs 20 are secured to the subframe l5 which in turn carry a substantially nonl0 magnetic plate 2| insulated or resiliently carried thereby by resilient means such as rubber pads or bushings 23 constituting vibration damping means. It will also be noted that the plate 21 is further resiliently supported and insulated from 15 each of the studs'by rubber bushings 24.
The resilient rubber pads and bushings materially damp magnetic and mechanical vibrations and the transmission of said vibrations to the stationary plate 2| and to any other relatively 20 stationary members, thus eliminating any objectionable audible noises.
The plate 2| directly carries the electric motor elements as well as a bracket 27 preferably of a substantially non-magnetic material, the bracket 25 forming a gearing and bearing supporting means, one embodiment being particularly illustrated in Figure 5 where it will be seen that the bracket or gear frame is stamped of a sheet metal with a substantially transverse integral rib 28 and in- 30 tegral braces 29.
A preferred embodiment of the electric motor of the synchronous type is illustrated in Figure 4 where it will be seen that the field windings 30 having the proper number of turns of Wire are 35 carried by a laminated field structure 3| which in turn is riveted to the stator pole piece 32 terminating in the pole faces 33. It should be noted that the pole faces are notched to provide a plurality of salient portions or teeth 34 separated 40 by recesses 35, and attention is also called to the fact that the pole pieces 32 are formed of a plurality of members terminating in a narrowed portion at the pole face proper.
The rotor 40 of the electric motor preferably 45 comprises an assembly of disc-like laminations 4i provided with salient portions or teeth 42 and recesses 43 adjacent the periphery, the discs preferably assembled into a substantially compact formation. In the embodiment illustrated in 50 Figure 4 it will be seen that each disc 4| is slightly offset from the adjacent disc so that the teeth and recesses are staggered or located on a skew.
I have also provided that the longitudinal width of the discs particularly adjacent the pole faces .55
"one embodiment for providing. a greater tooth area on the adjacent faces of the armature as compared with the tooth area of the faces of the pole pieces. The rotor 40 is fixedly secured to shaft 40 supported at one of its extremities by plain bearing 41 on bracket 21 at the other end by plain bearing 40 (see Figure 3) in the frame plate II thus allowing considerable lateral motion to the rotor structure as can be seen by examination of Figure 3. It should be noted that the recesses 43 on the disc-like laminations AI are formed having substantially parallel walls, and thus provide a slightly larger area to the outer periphery of the teeth 42 than the area adjacent to the termination of the recesses. It should be understood, however, that I do not want to limit my invention to this specific construction of recesses.
The time indicating mechanism here illustrated comprises a calibrated time face and a minute hand and an hour hand driven through a gear train. In the embodiment illustrated the arrangement of parts and gearing mechanism is of great simplicity without sacrificing accuracy and the speed reduction from the prime mover or motor to the time indicating hands has been accomplished with a minimum of moving parts. Referring particularly to Figures 2 and 3, it can be seen that the rotor element of the electric motor drives shaft 45 which in turn carries a worm 50 fixedly secured thereto, the worm 50 drives gear 52 carried by shaft 53. Shaft 53 is journally supported on bearings 55 and 58 carried by the struck-up projections 51 and 50. The struck-up projections form integral parts of the supporting bracket 21. It can be seen that gear 52 slightly projects through the opening resulting by the stamping of projecting ear 51. on bracket 21 as particularly illustrated in Figure 6. This construction materially decreases the size of the bracket 21 and aflords substantial clearance for gear 52 and attention is called to the fact that one of the projections 51 and 58 is provided with a slot 50 in order to facilitate assembly of shaft 53. The slot could be dispensed with and the projections can be flexed or bent to permit the ready assembly of shaft 53. Fixedly secured to shaft 53 is a worm 60 which is in driving engagement with worm wheel 64 fixedly supported by shaft 05 suitably supported in bearings carried by the lateral walls of the supporting bracket 21. Secured to shaft 05 is a worm 61 which in turn drives worm wheel 89. Worm wheel is supported on shaft 10 and drives the latter by-frictional engagement resulting from the pressure of spring I! against gear 08 holding the latter in driving engagement with a fixed disc I3 fixedly secured to shaft I0. Shaft 10 also carries a gear I! which drives gear 16 carrying a small pinion 11 which is in driving engagement with pinion 18 fixedly secured to sleeve 19 journalled on shaft III. Shaft 10 supports the minute hand I0 of the clock element and sleeve I0 carries the hour hand II. The frictional engagement of gear 69 with shaft I0 permits the accurate setting of the clock without interfering with the driving or effecting the operation of the gear train connected to the motor rotor element.
Referring particularly to Figure 7 in which a modification of the electric motor is illustrated, it can be seen that the rotor element in this instance comprises a plurality of laminated discs 00 also provided with salient portions or teeth It and recesses 03, the teeth and recesses being in substantial alignment with each other. The stator element of the motor in this instance comprising a plurality of laminated pole piece elements 00 terminating into pole faces 01 the pole faces being provided with a plurality of salient portions or teeth 00 and recesses 00. The laminated members 08 are slightly offset from each other so that the teeth are staggered and the recesses are slightly out of registration with each other providing a slight angularity with a horizontal plane contacting with one edge of the tooth element of a single lamination. In this construction, as well as in the one illustrated in Figure 4, it will be seen that the salient portions of the rotor and the salient portions of the pole faces of the stator element have portions out of alignment or registration with each other and that the salient portions of the rotor with respect to those of the stator are not in alignment and are out of registration with respect to each other. This construction being one of the features that aids materially in the successful starting of the motor and its launching into synchr'onism with the energizing magnetic field produced by the windings. In addition I have found that this construction materially increases the torque produced by the rotor element. In order to determine that the time indicating device is in operation I have provided visible means for indicating such fact, the same comprising a disc element I00 fixedly secured to shaft 45, the disc element being provided with portions of different colors or indicia and the same being rendered visible through opening I02 in the clock face It.
A knurl element I05 fixed to shaft 45 projects through back cover I2 and slight twirling of the knurl element I05 will start the motor and launch the same into synchronism. Adjacent to the knurl element I05 projects a knurl element (not shown).- The knurl element is fixedly secured to shaft I0 and serves the purpose of accurately setting the hands to indicate the proper time.
The synchronous motor herein illustrated is adapted to be driven in synchronism with a current whose frequency is substantially uniform and in the present embodiment the number of the teeth of the rotor and the gear speed reduction train have been properly designed to be responsive to a current substantially maintained at sixty cycles. The time indicating device being so designed as to be capable of obtaining energization from commercial systems supplied by a central station to which other elements, such as lights I06, secondary clocks of similar nature to the one particularly described I01 and electric motors I08 are connected or to an alternator adapted to supply current of uniform frequency to independent installations. I
The operation of the clock described may be reviewed as follows: with the normal circuit connections energizing the windings 30 and the setting of the clock hands to the proper hour by the operator a twirling of the knurl member I05 will start the rotor element 40 launching it into synchronism thus a uniform rate of speed is imparted to the mechanism, the driving motion being transmitted from the rotor element to the hand indicating mechanism of the clock through a suitable gear train. The gear train comprises a worm gear 50 driving worm wheel 52 which in turn drives worm wheel 60 and imparts motion to worm wheel 04, the latter drives worm 81 which imparts motion to resiliently supported worm wheel 69 driving shaft 10 which drives minute hand 80. Shaft III also carries gear 15 driving gear 18, pinions 11 and 18 adapted to drive hour hand 8|.
While I have referred above to a time indicating mechanism and particularly illustrated a clock as driven by the synchronous motor of my invention, it will be understood that my invention is capable of utilization where constant speed motion to any desired means is desirable.
It is apparent that, within the scope of the invention modifications and different arrangements may be made other than is herein disclosed, and the present disclosure is illustrative merely, the invention comprehending all variations thereof.
