6 Claims. (Cl. 18S-85) This invention relates to heel seat lasting machines and more particularly to a novel starting system for such machines.
In order to relieve the work load on a worker and to increase production, i.e. to eliminate non-productive periods of working time, the present invention contemplates the provision of a starting system for lasting machines of the aforesaid type which is actuated by means of a stroke-initiating or lifting magnet.
It is a particular feature of the invention to provide means facilitating a very effective connection between control or actuating elements of the machine to thereby enable the employment of heretofore known actuating arrangements..
The system according to the invention works considerably faster and requires practically no additional force, since it is only a question of actuating a simple switch which may be arranged at any desired location, 'preferably in the vicinity of the workpiece. 'The use of a `foot starter, through which heretofore known systems were actuated, may thus be omitted.
These and other objects of the invention will become further apparent from the following detailed description, reference being made to the accompanying drawing, showing a preferred embodiment of the invention.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a partly sectional elevational view of the starting mechanism or system constructed'in accordance with the present invention; `and Fig. 2 is a partly sectional view of the drive means for a heel seat lasting machine, illustrating said drive means to the extent necessary for an understanding of the invention; and
Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 2 but showing the invention in a brake release position.
In known arrangements the actuating rod 1 in housing 1a was lifted by means of a foot treadle so that an Vinclined or beveled surface 2 located at 'the upper vend of the rod served to bring a slide member 3 located in a brake shoe 4 provided with a brake lining 5 out of engagement with a cam-follower or pressure slide 7.
As soon as the nose 6 of the slide member 3 is separated from the cam-follower or pressure slide 7, the brake shoe 4 is displaced in upward direction under the action of a spring 8 and by means of the wedge-formed part 27 articulated to said shoe 4, both of which are guided in the head 1a of the machine, whereby wedge 28 is displaced with shaft 29, to thereby simultaneously effect engagement between a friction plate 9 and a friction flange 10, so as to set the machine in operation. Wedge 28 is guided in slot 30 of the head and is rigidly connected with the displaceable bolt 29. Key 28 transmits its axial movement to the housing 34 rigidly lsecured to friction plate 9 in order to effect engagement or disengagement between plate 9 and friction llange 10. The cam-follower or pressure slide 7 is pressed under the action of spring means 11 against a cam 12 and thus is d dtates Pact arranged to follow the movements of the contour of the latter.
When the braking position of the cam is attained, i.e., when the cam-follower or pressure slide 7 is displaced downwardly, it engages the nose 6 of the slide member 3 which has in the meantime been returned to its starting position, whereby the slide member 3 and the brake Slide 4 are pressed downwardly to enable the brake lining 5 to engage friction flange 10. Simultaneously wedgeformed part 27 connected with brake slide 4, eiects a separation of plate 9 from the friction flange 10. The friction plate 9 is separated from the drive wheel or friction flange 10 by suitable means during the downward movement of the cam-follower or pressure slide 7.,
In contradistinction to the known arrangements, the invention is characterized by the fact that the cam-follower or pressure slide 7 is connected with a push rod 13, the movements of the latter being transmitted to a lever 15 pivotally supported at its rear end 14 by the standard of the machine.
To the forward end of this lever there is linked a locking or latching lever 16 which is provided with an extension 17 oriented at a predetermined angle to the longitudinal axis of the latching lever.
The extension 17 is connected by means of a pin and slot connection 18 with a connector rod 25 joined to a lifting or stroke-initiating magnet 19. The lever 16 is provided with a shoulder 26 which engages a forked lever 21 pivotally mounted on the base or standard of the machine. The lever 21 is biased upwardly by a spring 22 and is xed to the rod l by means of a sleeve or collar 23, the free end of the lever 21 being, provided with a locking plate 24 which is engaged by the shoulder 20 of the lever 16, whereby the latter, when in the position shown in Fig. l, prevents upward displacement of the lever 21.
As soon as the connector rod 25 is raised by the action of current flowing through the magnet coil due to closing of a push button switch 26, the latch or shoulder 20 is removed from the plate 24 of the lever 21 to permit the rod 1 to move upwardly `under the action -of the spring 22. As a consequence thereof, the inclined or slanted surface 2 acts on and displaces the'slide member 3 and, in a manner as `described above, `sets the machine in operation.
At the end of the operating cycle or period, the -camv follower or pressure slide 7 is displaced downwardly by the cam 12. The system is so larranged that the cam follower or pressure slide 7 first moves the rod 1 downwardly via the parts l13, 15, 16, 20, 21 and 23 to thereby tension the spring 22. The slanted surface Zffthen releases the slide member 3 to permit the latter to 4move the nose 6 under the cam follower or pressure slide 7, whereby the brake slide 4 is al-so displaced downwardly to eifect complete braking and stopping of the machine.
It will, of course, be readily seen that the switch 26 is opened, either automatically or manually, a short time after it was closed to energize the electromagnet means 19. Upon opening of the switch 26, the core rod 25 moves downwardly again whereby a spring 17a, interconnected between the lever 16 and the machine frame, biases the lever 16 back toward the rod 1 so as to position the shoulder 20 at a location in which it can engage the locking plate 24 upon downward movement of the rod 1 under the faction of the cam 12.
Various changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention and it is intended that such obvious changes and modifications be embraced by the annexed claims.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new and desired to be secured by Letters Patent is:
