- Current now flows from the wire I36 through the normally closed switch 12 of the timer I5 and through a wire I3'I to the contact point I2I, through arm H8, and Wire I22 thus placing solenoid 98 under timer control.
- Each of the timers may be of a standard construction wherein a self-starting electric clock is provided with a sweep second hand I34-and an adjustable hand I35 which may be manually preset to determine when the timerswitches are to be operated.
- the adjustment of the timer I5 controls the grinding time before oscillation of the abrasive belt, and the timer I6 is adjusted to control the extent of theentire grinding period including the time of oscillation. In the event that no oscillation is desired, the timer I6 is presetto operate for the same periodas that of the timer I5.
- the switch 12 When oscillation is desired, after a predetermined [time dependent upon the setting of the hand I35 on timer I5, the switch 12 is opened and breaks the circuitto the solenoid 88: causing: the spring pressed lever "84' tQ Shift t1fe locking bar 86outofltheslot 851 and downwardly onto the rocker member "92 and into the slot 9

A hand-wheat 38 turns a cross shaft 40 in framesupported-bear-. ings, and a gear-42 securedrto thisshaft drives a. gear-43 fastened to the feed screw 36 Alateral frame. extension, 45, overlying the-- chuck ID, has a. pair. of spaced guide ways..46 whichreceive a vertically movable slide 41, and a, stud 48 laterally extending out from the lower end. of this'slide, rotatably supports" arearwardly extending hub50 "of the 'oscillatable spider. I 4 which is generally T-shaped-witha cross arm'5l and a central downwardly extending leg 52 'beneaththe hub 50." The abrasive belt I 2; which-is driven by a motor-pulley, runs over pulleys 55 journalled onstuds adjustably clamped in slots 56 at the ends of the cross arm'5l,' and "the bottom'ofthe-lower' a pair of adjacent depending arms 58 that are pivoted at their upper ends on studs 59 secured to the leg 52. Adjustment of the spacing of the pulleys 51 is accomplished by locating the arms 58 in desired angular relation and securing them in position by screws BI passing through arcuate slots in these arms and threaded into the leg 52, and laterally engageable arm abutments limit the minimum spacing of the pulleys 51 as illustrated in Figures 1 and 5. The adjustment of the pulleys 55 and 51 relative to the spider I4 controls the angle of grinding engagement of the abrasive belt with the work, and the spacing of pulleys 51 is preferably so adjusted thatthe looped portion of the belt does not engage the work until the bottom of the belt run lies considerably below the work piece as illustrated in Figure 1.
A bracket 62, on the frame 28, has an upstanding arm on which is pivotally supported the lower head of a cylinder 63 that contains a piston connected to a-piston rod 64 slidable through a stuifing box in an upper head of the cylinder. The upper end of this piston rod is pivotally connected to the upper end of an arm 65 whose lower end is secured to a shaft 66 journalled in a frame projection 61, and an arm 68, fastened at one end to this shaft, has its other end pivotally connected to a link 69 journalled on the stud 48. Fluid under pressure, such as compressed air, fed from a suitable source through a supply pipe I8; is selectively directed by a reversing valve 12' through one of a pair of flexible ducts 13 and I4 intothe upper or lower ends of the cylinder 63 to control the lowering and raising of the slide 41 and spider I4 for bringing the abrasive belt I2 into and out of grinding position, and fluid exhausted from the cylinder 63 through the other duct is directed by the reversing valve out, of a pipe I5. As will be later described, the spider I4 during its vertical'movement is prevented from rocking movement and is maintained in a horizontal position. 7 r
A lever I6, pivotally connected at one end to an operating stem of the reversing valve I2, has its other end connected through a pivot link to the movable armature of a solenoid TI, and an intermediate portion of this lever, which is slotted to fit over a post, is pivotally and yieldably supported by a coiled spring 18 loosely surrounding this post. A nut and washer on the post adjustably secure the lever I6 against the spring I8. When the solenoid TI is deenergized, a spring (not shown) shifts the armature and the reversing valve stem to their illustrated positions wherein fluid pressure is directed through the duct I3 into the upper end of the cylinder 63 to raise the slide 41 to the top of its movement and to locate the abrasive belt above grinding position so that a work piece -W may be inserted in and removed from chuck supported engagement. Electric control mechanism, to be later described, energizes this solenoid to shift the reversing valve and bring the abrasive belt downwardly into grinding position as shown in Figure 1. A belt tightener, which maintains the abrasive belt in desired running tension irrespective of the position of the spider I4, has a belt engaging pulley I9 rotatably supported on the upper end of an outwardly urged arm 88 which is secured'at its lower end to a shaft 8| journalled in the frame projection 61, and apulley segment 82, fastened ,to this shaft, is urged downwardly by a cable pulled by a weight 83, the upper end of this cable being secured to the segment 82 and running in an arcuate groove in this seg- H ment.
An upwardly extending and rearwardly offset spider projection 85 (Fig. 4) overlies the hub 58 and is provided with a through slot in which is slidably received a locking bar 86 for movement radially of this hub to selectively engage within a vertical slot 81 in an arcuate plate 88 secured to a lateral projection 9801 the slide 4! or to engage within a slot 9| in the arcuate upper end of an oscillated rocker member 92 journalled on the hub 50. For clarity of illustration, Figure 5 shows the locking bar 86 midway of its movement between the slots 81 and 9I. To facilitate engagement and disengagement of the locking bar in these slots and to assure positioning of the spider I4 relative to the arcuate plate 88 or relative to the rocker member 92, the side walls of the slots are preferably tapered to receive tapered ends on the locking bar. The underside of the plate 88 and the arcuate upper end of the rocker member 92 are substantially concentric with the stud 48 and in closely spaced relation to the spider projection so that the locking bar may slide along one of these surfaces and be guided into one of the slots 81 or 9I in the event that the locking bar is not initially aligned with the slot into' which it is to be received.
A lever 94, pivotally supported intermediate of its ends on a cross pin for rocking movement in an opening through a boss 96 on the spider,
has a rounded inner head seated in a vertical slot in the locking bar 86, and the outer end of this lever is connected through a short pivot link to the vertically movable armature of a solenoid 98 fastened to the front of the spider I4. A coiled spring I88 loosely received in a vertical bore of the boss 96 is compressed between an adjustment screw I8I and the lever 94 to normally urge the armature out of the solenoid 98 and to urge the locking bar 86 downwardly for engagement in the slot 9|. A driving belt I83 from the dual pulley 38 drives a pulley I84 secured to a shaft I85 that is journalled in bearings on the frame 28, and a driver plate I86, fastened to this shaft, carries an eccentric crank pin I81 adjustably positioned in a transverse slot by a screw I88. A connecting rod I89, journalled at one end on the crank pin I81 and at its other end on a itud I I8 projecting from the rocker member 92, translates the crank pin movement to oscillation of the rocker member. The connecting rod I89 may be adjusted as to length so that with difierent crank pin adjustments the spider I4 may be tilted to the same extent each side of its central horizontal position. A suitable idler pulley belt take-up (not shown) maintains proper driving belt engagement with the pulleys 38 and I84.
In operation, current from a suitable power line II5 passes through a main switch I I1 and is selectively connected by the switch arm H8 and a contact II9 of a quick acting relay I28 to directly energize the solenoid 98, or by this switch arm and a contact I2I to put this solenoid under control of the electric timers I5 and I6. The main switch I", which normally remains closed, is only opened when the machine is to remain idle for a considerable time, or, this switch may be opened to provide an emergency stop for the machine. Prior to starting the machine, the relay I 28 is deeiiergized and current flows from the closed switch II-I through the wire II6, contact II9, switch arm H8 and wires I22, I23 to energize the solenoid 98 which acts through the lever 94 to hold the locking bar 86 seated in the slot B-I and secure the spider I4 -inits non-oscillating horizontal position of Figure 1. A switch I24, normally urged to a closed circuit position and mounted on the slide 41 above the 'arcuate plate 88, has a depending operating stem- I25 which is engaged by the topof the locking bar'86 to shift this switch to op'encircuit position only when the locking bar is seated in the slot- 8-1. The solenoid I1 and the relay I 20-, which are connected in parallel, are initially-deenergized as shown in their full line'positions of Figurefl, and fluid. pressure is. directed by the reversing valve I2 into the top ofthe cylinder 68 which results in locating the spider "in its upper position with the: abrasive belt I2-li=ft'ed out of grinding position.
A work 'piece- W is mounted in the chuck jaws 28 and the starting button I 26 is pressedt'o'close the switches of a controller switching mechanism I21 which operates in a-standard manner (not shown) to release an electrically controlled motor brake I28 and -to start the motor II, the closing of these switches being eliected-by the energizing of a magnetic switch control-coil s from wires I29 and I3]. The closing of-the starting button circuit also simultaneously startsboth timers I5 and I6 from their initial zero positions and energizes the solenoid of a time-delay relay I39 todelay the closingof-a'switch I32 until the motor, abrasive belt I2 and workpiece W have attained full speed. These timers and the solenoid of the time-delay relay are each connected across the wires I29, I 3I. When the starting button I26 is released, the circuits controlled by this button are held closed during timer control by a switcht inthe timer I6x While this timer It operates, a switch arm a, connected to a wire I36, is held in engagementw-ith a contact point connected to the wire I29. The time-delay relay is illustrated as including the tungsten lamp Tand the carbon lamp C to regulate the delay in closing switch I32; but any suitable time-delay relay may be employed. The closing of-the switch I32 simultaneously energizes the high speed relay I20 and the solenoid II from the wires I29, I3I. At this time, the solenoid II reverses the valve I2 causing azdownward feed of the spider to its bottom positiori to locatetheabrasive belt I2 in work-grinding engagement. The energizing of the relay I20 causes a sufiiciently rapid shifting of the switch arm I I8 to the contact I 2| to transfer control of the solenoid 58 tothe timers while maintaining the locking bar 86. in the slot 81. Current now flows from the wire I36 through the normally closed switch 12 of the timer I5 and through a wire I3'I to the contact point I2I, through arm H8, and Wire I22 thus placing solenoid 98 under timer control.
Each of the timers may be of a standard construction wherein a self-starting electric clock is provided with a sweep second hand I34-and an adjustable hand I35 which may be manually preset to determine when the timerswitches are to be operated. The adjustment of the timer I5 controls the grinding time before oscillation of the abrasive belt, and the timer I6 is adjusted to control the extent of theentire grinding period including the time of oscillation. In the event that no oscillation is desired, the timer I6 is presetto operate for the same periodas that of the timer I5. When oscillation is desired, after a predetermined [time dependent upon the setting of the hand I35 on timer I5, the switch 12 is opened and breaks the circuitto the solenoid 88: causing: the spring pressed lever "84' tQ Shift t1fe locking bar 86outofltheslot 851 and downwardly onto the rocker member "92 and into the slot 9| causing the spider Il'to be os-' cillated so that the belt I2 will grind-the desired chamfer curvature in the end ofthawork' bore; We 'preferably preadjust the pulleys 55 andii andiregulate the extent of spider oscillationiso thatithis chamfer' curvature: will blend both with thevboreandwith the:end' face of the workpiece. Thisoscillation continues until the. hands of tuner I 6 are I corres ondingly positioned whereuponthe. armubreaks' circuit from the contact connected with the wire I29 and momentarily makes circuit with at contact connected to the wire "I 22 causing. the :solenoid 98: to" again become energized and to shift-Ithelocking' bar 86 upwardly for engagement within its slot 81 At the completion of the timing cycle; when the timeriS-operates its switch \t, electrical 'connec tions (not shown) butstandard to timing de vices; stops thesetimers and resets them back-to their zero starting positions Whenthe armia breaks contact. from the wire: I29; 'theclosed switch I24 maintains a circuit :across thestarting button I26 through the wires. I39, -I40 and' I36 so that the relay I20, solenoid TI, and time delay switch I30 remainin theirsame energized positions, and: the controller switching m'echa nismI 21 remains in its previously shifted closed circuit positions;
The seating of the locking bar 86 within its slot 81 again secures thespiderldin itsnonoscillating horizontal position and. opens the switch I24 thereby breakingthecircuitlto the relay I20, solenoidTI, timedelay switch I30. and to the magneticswitchcontrol coil s; Thexswitch arm II.8"of thenowdeenergizedrelay I2Il:ra'pidly shifts from'conta'c't I2I to'contact H9 to transfer' the :solenoid T98 from timer control to. main powerline control with sufiicient rapidity so that the locking .bar 86 remains withinits. slot 81; The deenergized solenoid 11' returns to itsillustratedposition of Figure -2 and'allows thevalve I2'tc reverse causing an upward movement of the slide 41 andJspiderM to their'top positions to lift the abrasive belt out of grinding position. Since the switch I24 cannot be opened .until the spider I4=.is locked in its horizontal non-oscillating position, the solen'oid *I'Iwill not :be prematurely; energizedand the spider cannot be tilted whilebeing lifted outofthe work piece W with the consequent dangerofbreakage of the abrasivexbelt I2; spider I4 and work iece. The 'deenergizing'of thetime delay relay I30 returns the switch arm, I 32. toits initial open circuit :position and at the same time the deenergizing of the magneticswitch control coil s permits the controller switching mechanism I21 to return to its indicated open circuit positions, so that the motor I 'I =is'disc0nnected and the brake I 28.is applied immediately after the abrasive belt is withdrawn from grinding "position. The ground work piece W is-removed from the chuck which has now stopped rotating and the machine parts are again ready for aiduplicate operating cycle.
