Definitions
- An infeed mechanism for can machinery includes a [51] lnLCl. 821d 43/16 frame mounting a Spiral feed screw, 3 guide and a [58] held of Search "113/7 11517 transferrwheel. All of these elements are quickly 113/28 198/2 detachable so that the infeed mechanism can be f d quickly modified for use with different size cans.
- the [56] Re erences frame of the infeed mechanism is pivotally mounted so UNITED STATES PATENTS that the transfer wheel can be moved toward or away from a can machine.
- DONALD F? DALMAN M WW, a 804 ATTORNEYS INFEED MECHANISM FOR CAN MACHINERY BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This application pertains to the art of infeed mechanisms and more particularly to an infeed mechanism for can machinery.
- the invention is particularly applicable to use with can machinery having a rotating turret to receive can bodies and perform operations thereon.
- known infeed mechanisms for can machinery include a frame for mounting aspiral feed screw, a can guide and a can transfer wheel.
- Prior devices of this type were not intended to be taken apart and were designed as if they would never be modified or taken apart except for repairs which would not often be required. Due to such design considerations, replacement of the spiral feed screw, can guide and can transfer wheel to adapt the infeed mechanism for different size cans is a very difficult task.
- Prior infeed mechanisms of this type have also been driven by chains and this leaves some slack in the mechanism so that accurate timing of the feed screw and can transfer wheel was difficult to maintain.
- An infeed mechanism of the type described includes a frame on which a spiral feed screw is rotatably mounted.
- the spiral feed screw is driven at its lower end by a releasable coupling, and bracket means is releasably attached to theframe for rotatably supporting the upper end of the spiral feed screw.
- the spiral feed screw is removable from the frame simply by releasing the bracket means and pulling longitudinally of the feed screw.
- can guide means is releasably attached to the frame adjacent the lower end portion of the feed screw for guiding cans away from the lower end portion of the feed screw.
- a can transfer starwheel is also rotatably mounted on the frame above the guide means for transferring can bodies from the feed screw along the guide means. The can transfer starwheel is also quickly detachable from the frame so that a different size starwheel may be attached when adapting the infeed mechanism for use with different size cans.
- the frame of the infeed mechanism has a pair of spaced-apart bores therein lying on a common axis for receiving a drive shaft on which the frame is pivotally mounted.
- Adjustment means is provided on the frameain spaced relationship to the bores for pivotally adjusting the frame means about the drive shaft in order to move the can transfer starwheel toward or away from the turret of a can machine.
- the drive means for driving the spiral feed screw and can transfer starwheel includes a plurality of gears rotatably mounted on the frame and in direct engagement with one another so that no chains are required.
- FIG. 1 is a side elevational view of the improved infeed mechanism of the present invention and with portions cut away for clarity of illustration;
- FIG. 2 is a plan view looking in the direction of arrows 2-2 of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is an elevational view looking in the direction of arrows 3-3 of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional elevational view looking in the direction of arrows 4-4 of FIG. I;
- FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional elevational view looking in the direction of arrows 55 of FIG. 3.
- FIG. 1 shows frame A of a can machine having a rotatable head stock or turret D which includes spindles for receiving can bodies to perform any desirable operation thereon, such as leak testing, trimming or welding.
- the improved infeed mechanism of the present invention for feeding can bodies to turret B of the can machine is generally indicated by reference letter C.
- infeed mechanism C includes a one-piece cast frame D which has spaced-apart side leg portions 12 and 14 which are held in a spaced-apart relationship as by a plurality of spaced-apart cross members 16.
- Frame D includes an upper portion 18, a lower portion 20 and a laterally extending portion 22.
- Laterally extending portion 22 of frame D releasably and rotatably supports a spiral feed screw E.
- Lower end portion 24 of feed screw E is provided with a centrally located splined bore 26 which releasably receives splined drive shaft 28 of right angle gear drive unit F.
- Upper end portion 30 of feed screw E has a cylindrical shape and is received in sleeve bearing 32 mounted in bracket 34.
- Bracket 34 is releasably held to frame 22 by bolt 36 which extends through a hole 38 in bracket 34 and threads into threaded bore 40 in laterally extending portion 22 of frame D.
- feed screw E In order to replace feed screw E with a different size, or with a new feed screw in case of damage, bolt 36 is simply removed to free bracket 34 which can be pulled from upper end portion 30 of feed screw E. Feed screw E is then simply pulled longitudinally of its length to release the separable coupling defined by splined bore 26 and splined drive shaft 28.
- a conventional conveyor or gravity feed chute supplies can bodies G to infeed mechanism C.
- top can guide H is mounted on frame D above feed screw E.
- Top can guide H is attached to frame D by a pair of support members 42 and 44.
- Each support member 42 and 44 has a vertical slot formed therein and only one slot is shown at 46 for support member 42.
- Bolts 48 and 50 extend through the slots and thread into threaded bor'es provided in frame D.

- a guide member 86 extends longitudinally of feed screw E below brace member 68.
- Guide member 86 has a plurality of longitudinally spaced threaded studs 88 welded thereto and extending upwardly therefrom. Threaded studs 88 extend through suitable holes provided in brace member 68 and nuts 90 are threaded on studs 88 above brace member 68. Coil springs 92 surround studs 88 between brace member 68 and guide member 86 to bias guide member 86 downwardly away from brace member 68 toward feed screw E. It will be seen that can bodies G being fed along feed screw E during rotation thereof are in engagement with guide member 86 which supplies a yielding force to can bodies-G for biasing can bodies against feed screw E. An electrical switch 102 may be mounted on support member 104 of top can guide H.
- Switch 102 may have an actuating roller 106 engaging guide member 86 so that damaged or oversized cans will raise guide member 86 against the force of spring 92 and actuate switch 102 for deenergizing the drive motor for infeed mechanism C.
- a pair of side guide members 108 have outwardly extending rods 110 welded thereto for reception in bores 112 formed in laterally extending portion 22 of frame D.

- Each plate member 118 and 120 has suitable holes therethrough for receiving bolts 124 which are threaded into threaded bores formed in mounting member 126.
- Mounting member 126 is also provided with suitable holes for receiving bolts 128 which thread into suitable threaded bores in cross member 16 of frame D.
- Guide means J is located adjacent bottom end portion 24 of spiral feed screw E so that can bodies G moving off of bottom end portion 24 move onto arcuate edges 122 of guide means J.
- side guide members 108 have their arcuate portions 114 curved at the same curvature as edges 122, and arcuate portions 114 extend around two-thirds of the way along arcuate edges 122 from bottom end portion 24 of feed screw E.
- guide means J is removable from frame D simply by removing bolts 128. A different size guide means may then be attached to frame D simply by utilizing bolts 128.
- a conventional arcuate guide member 129 is mounted on the frame of the can machine in radially spaced relationship to turret B. Can bodies G leaving the end of guide means J are guided by member 129 as the can bodies are picked up by the spindles on turret B.

- Can transfer means K includes a plurality of equidistantly circumferentially spaced arcuate recesses 134.
- Can transfer means K is rotated in timed relationship with feed screw E so that a recess 134 will grab a can body G as it comes to bottom end portion 24 of feed screw E and guide a can body G along guide means J to be picked up by the operating spindles of turret B.

- Elongated arcuate slots 152 and 154 allow semi-circular portions 140 and 142 of each disc 138 to be rotated so that arcuate recesses 134 will be in properly timed relationship to receive can bodies G when they come off from bottom end portion 24 of feed screw E.
- Each hub 164 includes a radially extending threaded bore receiving set screws 166 which engage shaft 80 to lock hubs 164 thereon so that rotation of shaft 80 will also rotate hubs 164 and discs 138.
