" April 13, 1948. a. J. JULIAN WRINKLE REMbvIuG DEVICE Filed April 7, 1944 OR G GE J. \IJLIAN ATTORNEY Patented Apr. 13, 1948 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE WRINKLE REMOVING DEVICE George J. Julian, Columbus, Ohio, assignor to Curtiss-Wright Corporation, a corporation of Delaware Application April 7, 1944, Serial No. 530,058
the direction of the marginal edge of the flange and in number and depth depending, among other factors, upon the angle of the flange with respect to the body portion of the sheet. Such wrinkles are usually worked out of the flange with a mallet. This method of removing the wrinkles, however, is slow and arduous and has the further objection that the surfaces of the areas in which the wrinkles are located are marred by the mallet.
The principal object of the present invention, therefore, is to overcome the above objections, this object contemplating a device which is adapted to transmit the blows of a mallet to a wrinkle in such a manner that the latter may be readily flattened with a minimum of effort and without objectionably marking the area originally containing the wrinkle.
A further objectis to provide a shrinking device which is so designed thatthe shrinking of the areas containing the wrinkles may be effected with a minimum displacement of the excess material causing the wrinkles and in such a manner that any tendency for the latter to travel with respect to their original locations is avoided.
The device is characterized by pivotally connected parts which are adapted to engage conformably the opposite sides of a wrinkle. When so applied to a wrinkle and while supported upon a formin block, the device is struck repeatedly by a mallet. At the same time the device is gradually drawn across the forming block in a direction to disengage the wrinkle. Thereby the blows which are applied to the device are transmitted to the wrinkle in such a manner that the walls thereof are caused to shrink to a degree which will take up the excess material causing the wrinkle and in so doing enable the latter to be flattened.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:
Figures 1 and 2 are difierent perspective views, to slightly diiierent scales, of a device embodying the features of the invention.
Figures 3 and 5 are fragmentary perspective views showing the device occupying different operative positions corresponding to different stages in the removal of 'a'wrinkle from a flange.
Figure 4 is a perspective view of the tool show ing it in an operative position preparatory to the application of the blows which are to effect the removal of the wrinkle.
Figure 6 is a fragmentary view of a flange from which a wrinkle has been removed by the device. Figure '7 is a longitudinal section through the device, the parts thereof being shown closed.
Figure 8 is a transverse section taken 88 of Figure 7.
The device, indicated generally at It, includes an anvil H and a co-operating blow-transmitting part l2. The anvil and blow-transmitting part have shank portions which are pivotally along line connected by a hinge pin IS, the shank portion of the blow-transmitting part beingior'med with an angular projection I 4 which is located between fork extensions on the shank portion of the anvil. The anvil H is of a finger shape, having a half-round end portion l5 which tapers to a rounded tip and which in the direction of the tip decreases progressively inthickness. A flat face IS on the under side of the anvil is adapted the formation of an annular flange 118 on a f stamping, it being understood, of course, that the device may be availed of to remove various kinds of wrinkles without regard to the manner in which they are formed.
The blow-transmitting part l2 includes a head [9. A cavity 20, which is formed in the under side of the latter, is adapted to receive the wrinkle I! which is occupied by the rounded end of the anvil I l, the said cavity conforming in shape to the anvil so that when a wrinkle is engaged between the cooperating parts of the device, the convex surfaces of the wrinkle will be engaged by the walls of the cavity 20 while the concave surfaces will be engaged by the walls of the anvil ll.
When a wrinkle area is gripped in the mannerdescribed, the said area and the rounded portion of the anvil are located wholly within the cavity 20 of the head l9 while a face 2! on the latter engages the area of the flange surrounding the area of the flange around the wrinkle which is to be removed will rest upon the forming block. The latter also provides the supporting surface for the anvil I I. The shank portions of the companion parts of the device form a handle which preferably overhangs the forming block and which may be grasped in one hand to manipulate the device while a mallet 24 may be grasped in the other hand and used to strike a projection 23 on the head l9.
In the use of the device, assuming the flange l8 containing the wrinkles to be removed has been arranged upon the forming block and the device to be held temporarily partially open, the anvil II is inserted in a wrinkle between the forming block and the flange and the head I9 closed upon the wrinkle. between the parts of the device, the head I9 is struck repeatedly by the mallet '24. At the same time the device is gradually drawn outwardly in a direction to disengage the device from the flange. Such movement of the device may, if desired, be effected, or facilitated, by properly controlling the direction of the blows of the mallet 24. Thereby wider and deeper portions of the wrinkle are caused progressively to enter narrower and more shallow portions of the cavity 20 in the'head I9. The sides of the wrinkle at the opposite sides of the crest are thus caused to shrink, being simultaneously forced toward and finally engaging the forming block. The shrinking of the wrinkle area and the accompanying movement of the sides of the wrinkle toward the forming block progresses in the direction of the marginal edge of the flange as the device is drawn in the direction described. During such movement of the device, the anvil and force-transmitting part support the wrinkle in such a manner that the sides thereof may be shrunk by compression forces without collapsing the Wrinkle before the required shrinkage has been effected, the said parts permitting the necessary lateral flow of the material of the wrinkle between them. The face 2| on the head i9 acts upon the wrinkle area to further flatten and smooth the latter, it being noted in this connection that the backing block 22 provides a support on which the device' is rested while a portion of the surface of the said block provides a form with which the face 2| on the head l9 cooperates directly. As the flattening action is completed the flange is released. Thereupon the device may be again manipulated in the manner described to effect the removal of another wrinkle.
It will be noted that in the removal of a wrinkle with the device, the excess material which is the cause of the wrinkle is, as indicated at 25 in Figure 6, concentrated in what originally was the crest portion of the wrinkle. As the excess material increases progressively in the direction of the marginal edge of the flange, the thickness of the area in which the excess material is com centrated likewise increases progressively in the same direction. The device, therefore, has the advantage that each wrinkle is wholly removed while the excess material in the wrinkle is concentrated in the mid-section of the area originally containing the wrinkle, there being no tendency for a wrinkle being acted upon by the device to travel around the flange away from the device. A further advantage obtained is that the removal of the wrinkles may be effected rapidly, with a minimum of effort and without undue marring of the surface of the flange. If desired to further guard-against marring of the flange, Cellophane While the wrinkle area is gripped the surface of the flange and the force of the blows of the mallet transmittedto the wrinkle through such protective covering.
