SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 284,338,.dated September 4, 1883.
Application filed August 1,11862. (N0 model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 'I, RICHARD GARDNER SHUTE, of Eclgartown, in the county of Dukes, of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, have invented a new anduseful Improvement in Androides or Automaton Shoe-Faetories; and
in the following specification, and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which Figure lis a top View; Fig. 2, a rear elevaviews of androides, and theiroperative mechism constituting my invention, such androides representing the shoefactory operatives at work at their benches. I Fig. 5 is an under side view of the toothed'shatt and the-levers for operating the androides. Fig. 6is avertical section of one of the body-moving androides, and the mechanism connecting its body with its working-lever. Fig. 7 is avertical section of one of the arm-moving a11- droides, and the mechanism connecting its arm There are fouriof the androides in each series, those of one series being marked A, B, O, and D, and those of the other E, F, G, and H. The three, A, B, and O, of the first series, and one, F, of the second are represented as engaged in buffing the soles a, b, c, and f, their arms being simply. pivoted to their bodies, which are pivoted to their legs, so as to be capable of vibrating toward and from the shoes. Each of the remainingandroides-viz.,
oted to the body at the shoulder, so as to be movable up and down, such arm being repre- Each series of the androides has abench, I, in front of it, and between them is a table, K, having shoes upon it. The invention is not limited to the exact number of them. From the movable part of each android a rod, 2, is jointed and extends down through the floor or base m, on which.
and fulcrumed to bars 12 0 extending across it, are two sets of levers, A B C 'D, and EE G H,-between which is a shaft or barrel, I, provided with teeth pto act against and move such levers at-proper times, while such shaft or barrel may be revolved. Each lever is furnished with a spring, q, to move it in the direction opposite to that in which it may be To some of the n moved by the toothed shaft. androides there may be two working-levers to each, the levers of the pair having their lesser arms jointed together. On one end of the rotary shaft or barrel is the gear 8 of a clockmovement or train, L, whose retardingfly is shown at t. A rod to slide into and out of the path of the fly is shown at a. By moving or sliding the said rod down into such path the flyby it may be stopped from revolving, it being caused to revolve by the power of the actuating-spring of the train, when such spring is wound up or contracted; The train onbeing set in movement, will cause the toothed barrel or shaft torevolve and put in motion in the order required, the movable part of each figure or android. The sets of automata will thus be made to appear to be at work, like the operatives of a shoe-factory.
I clain1 i l. The combination of the toothed barrel or shaft, thetwo sets of levers, their operative springs, and the two series of androides, as described, having a part of each android movaas to be movable thereby, as explained.
the saidrod is jointed to the outer arm of one of a set of levers. Beneath the floor or base,
ble and connectedwith one of the levers, so i 2. The combination of the clock-movement and its stopping-slide, with the toothed shaft or barrel, the two series of levers, their operative springs, and the twoseries of androides having a part of each android movable and connected with one of the'levers, so as to be movable thereby, as set forth.
