2 Claims.
This invention relates to lifts or jacks such as are used, for example, for Velevating motor vehicles to facilitate inspection, repair or greasing of the same, and more especially it relates to mechanicaliy operated automobile lifts as dis tinguished from those operated by pneumatic or hydraulic power.
The chief objects of the invention are to provide a lift at relatively low cost as compared with the cost of hydraulic or pneumatic lifts; td provide safety mechanism operating automatically upon the failure of the lifting means for preventing rapid descent of the lift; to provide automatically for stopping the movement of the lift when it attains fully elevated or fully lowered position; and in general. to provide a simple, compact and safe 4power-operated lift. More specifically, .the invention aims to provide hydraulically operated safety mechanism in combination with mechanical means for raising and lowering the lift; and limit switches for stopping the rotation of :a reversible operating motor after the latter has made a determinate number of revolutions in either direction as a means for stopping the lift at each extremity of its range of movement. Other objects will be manifest as the specification proceeds.
Of .the accompanying drawings,
Figure 1 is a vertical section through a lift embodying the invention, in its preferred form, parts thereof being shown in elevation;
Figure 2 is a section, on a larger scale, on the line 2-2 of Figure 1;
Figure 3 is a section, on a larger scale, yon the line 3 3 `of Figure 1, parts being broken away for clearness of illustration; and
Figure 4 is an enlarged detail plan view of the limit switches of the device, and wiring diagram showing how said switches automatically control the stopping of the motor.
Referring now to Figure 1 of the drawings, there is shown at Il? a tubular cylinder or casing that has .a closed bottom and which is embedded or sunk into `the ground in a garage or other suitable location, the upper end of the casing opening into a generally rectangular housing or receptacle II. The latter has a removable cover I2 over the major portion of its structure, said cover being flush `with the ground or floor designated I3. Concentrically positioned within the casing I0 is a tubular piston or post I4 that is spaced from the inner wall of the casing ID so as to provide a substantial space or chamber I5 therebetween. At its upper end portion the piston I4 extends through a guide ring or bear- Cannon, Canton, Ohio 1936, Serial No. 73,675
ing I6 and stuiiing box Il, both of which are carried by the housing `I I. Upon its upper end, above the ground, the piston carries a head piece or framework, generally designated I8, that is adapted to engage the undercarriage of an automobile positioned thereover, when the piston is caused to rise, for elevating said automobile.
For guiding the lower end of the piston I4, a plurality of journal brackets 2B, Zi are lsecured to the lower end portion thereof, at equally spaced points about its periphery, and respective crowned rollers 2l, 2l are journaled in said brackets, said rollers engaging the inner surface of the casing Ill. The rollers `2i also assist in preventing angular movement of the lpiston about its axis for the reason that such movement would create sliding friction between the rollers and casing.
Secured tothe bottom end of the piston M, as by welding, is a spider 23 that has an imperforate annular marginal portion that extends like a flange beyond the outer periphery of the pis-` ton, and has but a slight clearance, (about gli inch) with the inner periphery of the casing IU. As -is most clearly shown in Figure 2, the spider 23 comprises four .symmetrically arranged spokes 23a, 23a, and' at the intersection of said spokes, coaxially of the piston Vand spider, the latter is provided with a downwardly projecting stud 24 having an enlarged head at the lower end thereof. Slidably mounted upon the stub 24 and adapted for vertical movement toward and from the spider .23 is a metal disc 25 having a facing of leather 26 upon its top face and a short tubular guide-bushing 21 projecting downwardly from its lower face, about the stud 2li. The disc 25 is considerably smaller in diameter than the spider 23, and the leather facing 26 is of such size as to cover the open, central `portion of the spider when it is positioned thereagainst. Thus the disc 25 and facing 26 constitute a valve, which valve controls the flow of fluid past the lower end of the piston, upon occasion, as subsequently will be explained. The fluidI mentioned is oil 28 with which the casing Il] is substantially half filled.
Fixed in the lower end portion of the piston lli, above spider 23, are coaxial, radially disposed Sleeves 30, 30, in which sleeves a spindle 3l is nonrotatably mounted, and journaled upon said spindle, between the adjacent ends of Vsleeves 30, is a Sheave or pulley 32. The latter is formed with two peripheral cable-grooves, and is of such d1- arneter as to extend about half-way across the Space I5 between casing and piston on each side sprocket 64 that is mounted of the latter, the walls of the piston being longitudinally slotted at 33, 33 to permit the pulley to project therethrough. As shown, one of the slots 33 is of considerably greater length than necessary to accommodate the pulley, and said slot permits the oil 28 to flow freely between the inside and outside of the piston during axial movement of the latter. An arcuate cable-guard 34 extends transversely of the piston close to the perimeter of the pulley 32, at the bottom of the latter.
Secured at fixed points on the bearing I6 is a pair of cables 36, 36 that extend downwardly in the space I 5, pass about pulley 32, and extend upwardly therefrom to a drum 3l located in the housing I I, the drum being positioned with a portion of its perimeter overhanging space I5 so that it receives the cables directly from the pulley 32 to the end that power is conserved. The perimeter of the drum 31 is formed with the usual cable-receiving grooves arranged in right and left hand helices, as shown in Figure 3. The drum is journaled in suitable bearings carried by a pair of spaced-apart vertical bearing plates 33, 38 mounted on the bottom of the housing I I.
For driving the drum 31, one end thereof is provided with a gear 40 that is meshed with a pinion 4I that is mounted upon one end of a countershaft 42 that is journaled in bearings carried by bearing plates 38. At its other end the countershaft 42 carries a gear 43 that is meshed with a pinion 44 carried upon one end of a main drive shaft 45 that is journaled in the bearing plates 38. Mounted upon the drive shaft 45, in the medial region thereof, is a worm gear 41 that is meshed with a worm 48 on a transversely disposed shaft 49, the latter being journaled in bearings carried by respective supports 50, 50, Figure 1, that are supported at their ends by the bearing plates 38. Atone Vend the worm shaft 49 is coupled to the shaft of a reversible electric motor 5I, said motor being supported upon cross-beams 52, 52 secured to. the opposite sides of housing II. The gearing described provides about a 273 to l speed reducition between the motor 5I and drum 31, and the speed of the motor is such that the drum makes between 6 and '7 revolutions a minute, which interval is sufficient to raise the piston I4 from the completely lowered position shown in Figure 1, to the desired position of maximum elevation (not shown).
Starting of the motor 5I is manually effected by.
means of a three-pole, double throw reversing switch 54, Figure 4, that may be conveniently positioned adjacent the lift, the stopping of the motor being automatically effected, after the motor has made a determinate number of revolutions, by a limit switch generally designated 55. The limit switch 55 is mounted upon a cross-beam 56 supported by the bearing plates 38, and comprises two pairs of make-and-break contacts, one blade of each of the latter projecting into the path of movement of a traveler 51. Said blades are designated 58 and 59 respectively and are so positioned that when engaged by the said traveler the respective contacts are caused to open. The traveler 5'I is mounted upon a screw 6U that is journaled at its ends in the bearing plates 38, said traveler also engaging a guide-rod 6I carried by said bearing plates, parallel to screw 60. One end of the shaft of screw 60 extends through its bearing plate and is provided with a sprocket 62 that is connected by sprocket chain 63 with a upon the projecting end portion of countershaft 42.
The arrangement is such that the screw 60 is rotated in opposite directions accordingly as the reversible motor 5I is driven in opposite directions to raise or lower the head piece or framework I8, and the length and pitch of the screw is such that the traveler 5l is moved into engagement with switch-contact blades 58, 59 alternatively as said Ahead piece reaches its maximum elevated or lower positions.
The drawings show the lift in fully lowered position, in which position the motor 5I was stopped when the traveler 5l engaged contact blade 59 of the limit switch to open the contact and thereby to open the circuit to the motor 5I, as will be evident from reference to Figure 4. To elevate the lift it is only necessary to throw switch 54 to its opposite position, whereby current is delivered to the motor 5I through the closed limit switch Contact 58, and the motor thereby driven in reverse direction to the direction in which it rotated during its immediately previous operative cycle. As the head piece I 8"- reaches its maximum elevation, traveler 57 automatically engages switch-blade 58 and opens the switch contacts, thus shutting off current to the motor and bringing the apparatus to rest. This completes a cycle of operation, which is repeated, by manual reversing of the master switch 54, when it is desired to lower the lift.
The raising of the lift is accomplished in about one minute of time, and it may be lowered in the same length of time. When the piston is rising the oil 28 in the casing I Il flows freely through the slot 33 in the piston, through the spider 23 at the bottom thereof, and around the perimeter of the valve-plate 25 suspended at the lower end of stud 24. When the piston is descending at normal speed, the oil flows in the reverse direction, the weight of the valve-plate 25 beingA suficient to prevent it from being lifted by the hydrostatic pressure of the oil, the latter being very light due to the relatively slow descent of the piston. In the event, however, that the piston I4 shouldv descend rapidly, due to breakage of the cables 36 or for any other cause, the oil will be suiciently retarded in its passage through the piston to build up substantial hydrostatic pressure, which pressure is suflicient to force the valve plate 25 upwardly on stud 24 so that it closes the opening through the spider 23. The result is to shut olf passage of the oil through the piston, which oil thereafter is forced to pass solely through the small annular passage between the periphery of the spider 23 and the casing I0. This produces a dash-pot effect which retards the descent of the piston to a safe speed.
The invention is of relatively simple construction and may be manufactured and sold more cheaply than similar lifts that are hydraulically or pneumatically operated. Moreover, it is not affected by extremes of temperatures as are hydraulic or pneumatic lifts. The safety mechanism operates automatically to protect the apparatus and operator from injury. The limit switch reduces the human factor of operation to the minimum, and the invention achieves the other advantages set out in the foregoing statement of objects.
Modifications may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the appended claims.
What is claimed is:
1. A lift comprising a vertically arranged tubular casing, a cylindrical piston mounted therein and spaced from the wall thereof, mechanical means for raising and lowering the piston, and means for guiding the lower end of the piston in the casing, said means comprising crowned rollers carried by the piston and engaging the inner surface of the casing, said rollers being spaced apart from each other, and being mounted on axes disposed at right angles to the piston so as substantially to prevent angular movement of the piston about its axis, relatively of said casing.
