NIECHANISM FOR OPERATING BALlNG-PRESSES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 405,286, dated une 18, 1889.
Application iiled December l5, 188B.
To al?, whom it' may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH WADLEAIGH, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Milks Grove, in the county of Iroquois and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Mechanism for Operating Baling-Presses, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the ac-- companying drawings,illustrating the invention, in which- Figure l is a longitudinal elevation of my invention, the press-box being shown in section; Fig. 2, a top or plan view of Fig. l with the baling-press removed; Fig. 3,ahorizontal section of Fig. l on line X; Fig. 4, a plan of the arms and pitmanconnections removed from between the gear-wheels.
The nature of this invention will be fully comprehended from the following detailed description.
.A represents the top portion of a foundation for the support of the mechanism hereinafter described. At one end of this foundation is affixed a frame with suitable supports to serve as bearings for the shaft of a wormgear Q, which may be driven by any suitable power, but preferably by the tumbling-rod of a horse-power, which is to be attached to the outer end R of the shaft of the worm-gear in the ordinary manner of making like connections. Secured to said foundationA on both sides of the gear-wheels B B are standards D, and in the upper ends of the same are formed bearings C, for the separate shafts of the separate gear-wheels B to rotate in, the centers of said shafts being on the same axial line. The gear-wheels B are provided on the inner portions of their peripheries each with a like number of cogs, and the cogs on each gear-wheel engage alike the worm-gear, so that when they are driven by said worrm-gear each gear-wheel will have a like motion, the form of the cogS on the wheels B being such as properly to mesh with said worm-gear. Vhen the mechanism is employed for pressing hay, it is very desirable that the wheels B be placed so closely together as will just permit the pitman to operate between them, that hay may be kept from interfering with the arms which drive the pitman.
The inner faces of the wheels Bare coun- Serial No. 293,675. (No model.)
tersunk, as at F F, to provide room for two arms G, which at their inner ends are hung to pivots projecting in centrally from said gear-wheels, as shown at H Il. The outer circular recesses Z Z in the inner faces of the 6o gear-wheels B, that the ends of the recesses may engage the said pin and drive the pitman, which is jointed to the rod of the plunger to the press. Thelatter is shown at I, the
plunger at J, and the hay to be pressed at K,
the press being shown in longitudinal section at Fig. l, and-being of ordinary construction. The advantage of this construction is, that remittent reciprocating motion is attained by very compact and simple means, in which, by enlarging the con struction, an increased length of stroke to the pitman is attained, and by increasing the motion of the worm-gear the intermitting period is shortened without materially changing the effect of the plunger.
The operation is as follows: The wheels B are in such position that when the pitman E .is brought to a level with their axes, and when the left-hand ends to the semicircular slots Z Z have brought the pin Y to a point which projects the pitnian the greatest distance outward to force the plunger J against the hay K or other material to be pressed, the further turning of the wheels B will permit the pin Y to rebound back in the recesses Z by the elasticity of the pressed hay, and consequently there will be a suitable interval before the same ends of the recesses again drive the pin Y for supplying the press with a charge of hay, notwithstanding the wheels B have a 9o continuous motion.
Practically it makes no difference in the working of the press as to which Way the wheels B are turned. In one case the recesses Z will lie above the bearings C when the pin lters Patent- IOO and provided centrally on their inner sides with pivots IT, recesses F, and semieircuizu' recesses Z, in combination with arms G, hung to said pivots and lying in recesses F, :L pitmml E, provided with :i cross-pin Y, projecting' through the opposite ends of said arms and into recesses Z, means for conneetingthe pitnmn with the plunger of abn1ing-press,the
worm-gear Q, meshing with the gemrw11ee1s, and the shaft of the Worm-gear provided with 1o means for connecting it with suit-able power, as and for the purpose specified.
