UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JAMES KENNELLY, oF HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT.
IMPROVEMENT IN MOLDS FOR CASTING HORSESHOES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 38,047, dated March 3], 1863.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES KENNELLY, of Hartford, in the county of Hartford and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and Improved Mold for Casting Horseshoes; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in Which- Figure 1 represents a longitudinal vertical section of my invention; Fig. 2, a transverse vertical section of the saine. Fig. 3 isaplan or top view of the same, the upper half of the Inold having been removed.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures.
This invention consists in ainold for casting llorseshoes, which is provided with a plate from which a series of pins rise, which carry the cores of the nailholes to be produced in the horseshoes, said plate being adjustable by cams and levers in such a manner that on receiving the plate all the cores of the nail-holes are made to project into the moldin the proper position to produce the nail-holes, and on depressing said plate allthe cores are withdrawn simultaneously, the Whole mold being so arranged that a complete horseshoe can be cast with all the nail-holes and with little trouble or labor in molding.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe it.
A A represent the two halves of my mold, which is made of metal or any other suitable material. Each half is provided with a cavity, a c', and on placing the two halves one on the top of the other the cavity c covers the cavity a, and thehollow space thus formed has'the shape ofthe horseshoe which is to be produced. The correct position of the two halves in relation to each other is insured by studs b, which rise from one and project into holes in the other half. A spout, B, serves to introduce the molten metal.
C is a plate, of iron or other suitable material,
which is held between two pairs of cams, D
D, under the lower half,A, ofthe mold. The
cams D D are secured to shafts E E', which have their bearings in lugs F, fastened to the under surface of the lower half of the mold, and said cam-shafts are operated by means of a lever, 4G, which is attached to the upper shaft, E, and which connects by a link, c,with a lever, G, secured to the lower shaft, E. By depressing the lever G the cam-shafts are rotated simultaneously, and by the action ofthe cams the plate C is depressed, and by raising the lever G the plate C is raised, and the cams D D must be so arranged that the motion of the plate is parallel to the lower surface ofthe mold. The plate C carries a series of pins, d, which project into the lower half of the mold, and the upper ends of which forni the cores e for the nail-holes to be produced in the horseshoes. By raising the plate C these cores are brought in the proper position for casting, and
.by depressing the plate C all the cores are withdrawn simultaneously.
In casting horseshoes the mold is placed in the proper position, the two halves being united, and the plate G is raised to bring the cores up. After the metal has been run into the mold, and as soon as it commences to set, the cores must be withdrawn to prevent them from melting and adhering to the metal ofthe horseshoe, and when the metal has cooled off the shoe is ready with all the holes. The casting of horseshoes is thereby rendered very easy, and a large number of shoes can be produced with little labor in a short time.
What I claim 'as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent as a new and improved ar-V ticle of manufacture, is-
A mold for casting h,orseshoes,provided with a plate, C, carrying the cores e for the nailholes, and adjustable by cams D D',as and for the purpose shown and described.
JAMES KENNELLY.
