  • One end of the roller bar 223 is pivotally mounted on plate 221 by means of a pivot pin 233 while its other end carries a roller element 232 which rests in valley 223 of the cam surface in plate 220, which determines the neutral position. Movement is imparted to the plate 221 and the roller 232 by the terminus 234 of a manual lever which has a push-type handle 2316 on its other end extending through the casing front wall 23.
  • a complete snap fastener device includes a base element 13 joined to a socket element as the first unit, and a base element 13 joined to a stud element as the second unit. in such an arrangement, the base 113 and the socket 23 form the female unit while the base 13 and the stud form the male unit of the complete fastener device.
  • the ready condition of the machine is represented by Fig. 6.
  • the cylinder 34 is displaced from the trun nion block 33 and the coil spring 44 on the shaft 36 is compressed.
  • the piston shaft 43 extending from the other end of the air cylinder 34 is at its minumum extension whereby the toggle mechanism is in its unactuated condition with the ram 143 located in its uppermost condition.
  • the cylinder 34 has not yet been moved so the bar 72 is in engagement with the pin 1132 which retains the lever 134 in its ex treme clockwise position; the upper feed arm 1133 is thus placed in a ready condition.
  • a spring ratchet member prevents withdrawal of fastener elements 113 and aids in positioning element 113 in its proper position.
  • lever 73 and lever arm 30 The downward movement of bar 72 causes lever 73 and lever arm 30 to likewise move downward in a counterclockwise direction about the pivot 34; such movement continues until lever arm 33 engages the stop member 35 and transfers the pivot screw 73 from an upper to a lower plane relative to the plane of pivot 34.
  • the lever 32 is permitted to pivot counterclockwise about the fixed pivot 34 because of the tension spring 33.
  • the lower feed arm 33 moves in the channel box 32 causing the grippers 33 to advance the snap fastener strip 23.
  • Fig. 9 is similar to Fig. 3 in illustrating an intermediate stage of the operation.
  • the toggle links 52 and 66 have not yet reached their full extension and the ram end is only slightly away from performing the clamping operation.
  • the pivot movement of the anvil arm 1153 causes the link M3 and the knife arm 172 to move upward whereby the lower knife blade 175 severs the connections between adjacent fastener elements 18.
  • This pivotal movement also causes the activator stem 178 to pivot the lever 216 whereby the pneumatic switch 214 ends the cycle and exhausts the air cylinder 34.
  • the cylinder 34 then returns to its initial position as shown in Fig. 6. During such return movement the upper and lower feed arms 108 and 90 are retracted and slightly pivoted permitting the sloping edges of the grippers 118 and 98, respectively, to ride over the fastener elements and 18, respectively.
