2 Claims.
This invention relates to a wire reeling machine, and has for the primary object the provision of a portable device of this character which will render the paying out and taking up of wire or similar material of considerable length, extremely simple and easyand will be very use ful in the handling of long lengths of fence wire, electric feed lines, telephone and telegraph lines and other similar material.
Another object of this invention is the provision of a device of the above stated character which may be conveniently moved either by power means or manually and will permit wire reels to be easily installed and removed therefrom and to drive the reels when desired either in the paying out or taking up of the wire and also to evenly feed the wire on the reels while taking up said wire.
With these and other objects in view as will become more apparent as the description proceeds, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
For a complete understanding of my invention, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a top plan view illustrating a wire reeling machine constructed in accordance with my invention.
Figure 2 is a side elevation illustrating the device. a
Figure 3 is an end elevation illustrating the device.
Figure 4 is a transverse sectional view taken on V the line 4--4 of Figure 1.
Figure 5 is a detail sectional view taken on the line-5-5 of Figure 1.
Referring in detail to the drawings, the numeral 5 indicates a substantially rectangular shaped frame, one end of which is reduced or provided with converging portions 6 to which a J'usted positions.
the axle and rotatably support a reel shaft l2 on which are journaled reels I3 arranged in endwise relation and in abutting engagement. The
journal l0 includes a removable section A which will permit the reel shaft l2 to be removed from both journals whenever it is desired to apply or remove the reels.
A shaft I4 is suitably journaled on the frame -5 and is arranged vertically at one end of the reel shaft and has secured to its upper end a friction disc l5 which may be contacted by one of the reel heads and is in continuous contact with a drive disc 16 journaled on the axle 8 and secured 'to one of the ground wheels 9, as shown at H,
so that the shaft M will be. rotated Whenever the device is moved forwardly or .rearwardly.
The reels l3 besides being journaled on the reel shaft l2 are also free to slide thereon and are engaged by a friction plate or block 18 rotatably and slidably mounted on the reel shaft. A coil spring [9 surrounds the reel shaft and bears against the friction block 18 as well as the journal Ill, The friction block is equipped with a groove 2|] engaged by a fork 2| pivotally connected to a hand lever 22, as shown at 23. The hand lever 22 is pivotally mounted on the frame, as at 24, so that it may be pivoted in either direction manually and any suitable means may be provided for holding the lever in any of its ad- A pivotal movement of the hand lever in one direction will slide the block l8 against the action of the spring and thereby permit slippage between the reels and the friction'disc l5. This is desirable in some instances when paying out wire from the reels during the movement of the device either by manual power or some power medium coupled thereto. Whenever it is desired to drive the reels by the movement of the device over the ground, the hand lever 22 is released 7 permitting the spring [9 to shove one of the reels coupler eye I is secured to permit theiframe to be easily attached to a draft medium or to provide a handle for the manual moving of the device.
An axle 8 is arranged transversely of the frame and secured thereto and has journaled thereon ground wheels 9. The axle'is so arranged on the frame that the latter will be easily balanced and thereby permit the device to be manually moved from one place to another without placing undue strain or load upon the person handling the device.
Opposed journals If! and II are secured on the frame directly in perpendicular alignment with tightly against the friction disc so that the Wire may be wound onto the reels or paid out there from depending in which direction the device is moved.
A guide rod 25 is slidably mounted onand arranged transversely of the frame -5 and is equipped with wire guide eyes 26 through which the Wire may be passed before passing .onto the reels. A lever 21 is pivotally mounted on a hanger 23 carried by the frame 5 and has a pin and slot connection 29 with one end of the guide rod. A link 30 is pivoted to the lever 21 and eccentrically pivoted to a gear 3| carried by a journal 32 on the frame 5. The gear 3I meshes with a pinion 33 secured to the lower end of the shaft I4 so that during the rotation of the shaft M by the movement of the device over the ground the guide rod 25 will be caused to reciprocate and thereby feed the wire evenly on the reels from end to end thereof.
From the foregoing description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings it will be seen that an extremely durable and conveniently handled wire reeling device has been provided, one which will permit reels to be easily and quickly installed and removed therefrom and to be driven from the ground wheels of said device whenever desired, either in the paying out or taking up of wire on the reels.
Further, it will be seen that the construction of the device will permit the handling of the wire either onto or off of the reels without manual contact therewith and further provides a device which may be moved with a minimum amount of power and without undue interference of obstacles lying in the path of movement of the device.
While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it will be understood that minor changes in construction, combination and arrangement of parts may be made Without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:
1. In a wire reeling machine, a frame, ground wheels supporting said frame, a reel shaft removably supported on said frame, a reel rotatably and slidably mounted on the reel shaft, a drive shaft journaled on said frame, a friction disc secured to said drive shaft, a second friction disc secured to one of the wheels and engaging the first friction disc, and manually controlled means for engaging and disengaging the reel with the first friction disc.
2. In a wire reeling machine, a frame, ground I Wheels supporting said frame, a reel shaft removably supported on said frame, a reel rotatably and slidably mounted on the reel shaft, a drive shaft journaled on said frame, a friction disc secured to said drive shaft, a second friction disc secured to one of the wheels and engaging the first friction disc, a block slidable on said reel shaft and engaging one end of the reel, a spring engaging said block for sliding the reel on the shaft to engage the first-named friction disc, and a manually operated means connected with said block for contracting the spring to free the reel from the first-named friction disc.
