England, assignors to Dunlop Rubber Company, Limited, London, England, a. British company Claims.
Our invention relates to apparatus for feeding or delivering obiects, such as balls, automatically or in a controlled intermittent succession.
rm In our invention balls, such as golf balls, placed indiscriminately are automatically fed intermittently or in repeated uni-form intervals by a mechanically controlled eeding mechanism which may be synchronized with. apparatus for treating the balls.
Our apparatus comprises a .fixed inclined runway or groove which may be mounted in an open trayand down which the balls or objects roll by gravity to an admission bracket which controls r the further intermittent feeding of the balls. The admission bracketis mounted on a platform tiltable about a horizontal axis beneath and transverse to the path of the balls being fed and comprises a runway orpair of rail members which in onepositio-nof the platformpermits an object to pass by; the following objects :are retained by mechanism on the platform, and in the other position :stops the further feed of the objects or balls. With "each rocking cycle one ball is permitted to pass over the rails or runway of the platform while the others are detained.
As the .ball or object arrives at a predetermined position on the platform runway it is stopped and delivered to a receiving mechanism of the treating apparatus. This is accomplished by spreading the rails of the runway so as to permit the ball, or other object, to .drop between the rails to a receiving and holding element of the treating apparatus.
:A series of parallel runways and feeding mechanisms may be arranged in parallel and the feeding mechanisms controlled simultaneously by a single rock shaft.
The apparatus is illustrated in the accompanying drawing as adapted particularly to supplying golf balls to an element supporting the ball in position suitable for painting, but it will be understood that it may be applied to handling golf balls or other articles for other treating apparatus.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a plan view of a four-ball automatic feed apparatus in accordance with this invention including the lower part of the feed tray. Fig. 21s a side View of the apparatus as shown in Fig. 1 showing the link mechanism by which the feed is operated from mechanism in a machine in which the automatic feed is embodied. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of one of the units of the four-ball feed shown in Fig. .1 and illustrating the functioning of the admission bracket.
Referring to the drawing a shallow, open inclined tray I carried four runways consisting of rail members 2 to guide, under gravity feed, balls 3 placed thereon to four suitably spaced and preferably aligned points at each of which is located an admission bracket for mechanically controlling the further gravity feed and final delivery of the balls to the ball supporting devices.
Each admission bracket comprises a feed control platform '4 situated in juxtaposition to the end of the runway or rail members 2 which project beyond the edge of the inclined tray l. The platform 4 is mounted upon a horizontally disposed spindle 5 arranged transverse of the feed path and which conveniently may be common to the whole series of admission brackets operating in unison, the arrangement being that oscillation of the spindle 5, accomplished by suitable link mechanism operated from a machine drive, causes corresponding rocking of the platform '4.
The oscillation of the spindle '5 is effected through articulated links 16, ll connecting through the arm IS with a part IS in the mechanism of a machine, the part l9 having an oscillatory movement about the pivot 2!] originating from such mechanism as a cam (not shown).
A delivery runway comprising rail members -6 moves with and is carried by the platform 4 in continuation of the gravity feed path.
The disposition and form of the platform 4 is such that in one extreme of the rocking movement the surface of the platform 4 constitutes a continuation or substantial continuation of the feed runway of the inclined tray I and thus allows a ball to pass thereover to the delivery runway.
A subsequent rocking movement raises the leading edge 4* of the platform, i. e. that edge immediately adjacent the end of the tray runway temporarily to stop the feed.
Fixed adjacent but independent of the free end of the delivery runway .rails 6 is a vertically or substantially vertically disposed plate I of suitable shape and so disposed that when the rails 6 are rocked with the platform 4 in a downward movement they ride on inclined faces I of the plate 1 to be moved apart against the action of a spring 8 to an extent to permit passage of a ball 3 between the rails 6 and so to be vertically a passage of a ball 3 across the control platform 4 takes place only after the delivery rails 6 are rocked away from the plate "I and are returned, under the influence of the spring 8 to a position to support a ball 3.
A suitable stop IE1 to which the ball may run is provided at the free end of the delivery rails 6 and the latter may be shaped as at 6 to create a definite point in the length of the runway at which each ball rests prior to delivery,
Control members for the gravity feed fuctioning. prior to and in co-operation with the rocking platform 4 operate to permit an intermittent feed of one ball at a time to the platform 4 when the latter is in a position where it operates as a step.
One of these control members comprises wire I l bent to U form and positioned to bridge the platform 4 transverse to the feed path, it being mounted by the free ends being conveniently coiled around the oscillating spindle at either side of the platform 4, one free end of the wire I l extending therefrom to carry a weight I2 operating to throw the U-shape forward into the path of the oncoming balls 3 and the weighted free end against a set screw stop l3 conveniently located at the side of the platform 4 and carried thereby on the feed tray side of the rocking pivot, the arrangement being that a rocking movement of the platform 4 causes the set screw stop l3 to contact with and move the wire control member against the action of the weight l2,'upward1y sufficiently to permit the passage of,a ball under gravity feed to the edge 4 of the platform 4 which is then in the raised position to retain the ball until a reversal of the rocking movement brings the platform 4 to the position permitting this ball to travel forward across the platform while simultaneously the set screw stop l3 on the rocked platform permits movement of the wire control under the influence of the weight I2 to a position where the closed end of the U-shape contacts with the next ball in the column to restrain its gravity feed until a reversal of the rocking movement again permits its passage to the platform as aforesaid.
A second feed control member functioning in conjunction with the platform 4 and the wire control comprises a finger member l4 carried from the underside of the platform 4 and extending beneath the guide rails 2 projecting from the adjacent edge of the feed tray I. The finger member l4 has an upturned end M and is so disposed that the rocking movement of the platform 4 to operate the wire control to permit the feed of a ball brings the upturned end H into a position,
where it is interposed between the last two balls in the gravity feed column sufficient temporarily to stop the feed while the wire control permits the passage of the last ball in the column to the edge 4 of the platform 4 as clearly shown in Fig. 3 of the drawing.
This second feed control member 54 also usefully functions as a means for ensuring the free gravity feed in the column of balls just prior to their reaching the wire control member this being sometimes desirable where the balls are in a state where they are liable to stick together, and the control member I4 is assisted in this by a spring member l5 carried by the platform 4.
