To all whom it may concern.'

Be it known that I, VVINFIELD S. ROGERS, of Cincinnati, Hamilton county, Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Drilling-Machines, of which the following is a speeication.

rIhis invention has reference to metal-drilling nxachines, often spoken of as drillpressesg and my improvements will be readily understood from the following description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which- .Figure l is a side elevation of a drillingmachine illustrating my improvements; Fig. 2, a Vertical section of the saddle to which the drill-arm is pivoted; Fig. 3, a vert-ical section of the drill-spindle and its bearing; Fig. i, a horizontal section in plane of line e of Fig. 1 of the column of the machinek and the arm-saddle, and Fig. 5 a horizontal seetion of the saddle in plane of line b of Fig. 1.

In the drawings, A indicates a Vertical column supported by the usual foot-plate; B, a table-arm fitted for rotary adjustment near the base of the column, the column forming the pivot on which this arm swings; C, a circular table supported by its center at the outer end of the table-arm and fitted, as usual, for rotation with reference thereto; D, an armsaddle secured to the front of the column and itted for Vertical adjustment thereon; E, a horizontal arm carried by the arm-saddle upon a Vertical pivot, the arm being capable of swinging upon this pivot; F, a spindlesaddle iitted for adjustment in and out upon the arm E, this saddle forming the bearing for the drill-spindle; G, the drill-spindle; Il, clamp-screws by which the arm-saddle is fixed to the column A in adjusted position thereon; J, a clamp-screw by which the arm E is fixed for angular adj ustment; K, T- blocks serving to unite the arm-saddle to the column, the heads of these blocks engaging in the usual T-slots in the face of the column; L, wedges engaging these T-blocks and actuated bythe clamp-screws H, the clamp-screws thus serving to adjust the wedges and clamp the arm-saddle firmly to the face of the column; M, the taper drilbsoeket in the lower end of the drill-spindle, which drill-spindle Serial No. 304,329. (No model.)

has a cent-ral bore to receive its vertical driving-shaft; N, the vertical driving-shaft fitting the central bore of the drill-spindle and splined therein, and serving as the meansby which motion is imparted to the drill-spindle, 5 5 while at the same time the drill-spindle is capable of vertical motion in its bearing as the feeding progresses 5 O, a stud upon the lower end of this vertical shaft, adapted when the drill-spindle is raised to its extreme height to 6o enter downwardly into the taper drill-socket of the spindle; P, a friction-pad carried by the arm-saddle D and actuated by the clampscrew J and bearing against the hub of the arm E, whereby the arm E is clamped in adj usted angular position with reference to the arm-saddle.

The gearing by which rotary motion is transmitted to the drill-spindle will be understood from the drawings without further eXplana- 7o tion. The feeding apparatus for raising and lowering the spindle is of the ordinary construction. When the drill-spindle is raised to its highest point, the stud O serves in expeiling the drill from the socket N. The table 7 5 and drill-arm both have swinging motions upon vertical pivots, and the drill-arm has a Vertical adjustment upon the column, and the drill-spindle has a rotary adjustment upon the drill-arm.

It will be seen that the arm-saddle is held to the column by T-bolts, so to speak, carried by the arm-saddle and sliding in the usual T-slot of the column, and that these T-bolts are really cutter-bolts, the wedges L forming the cotters, and the screws IVI the means for adjusting the eotters. The arm is pivoted to the arm-saddle and can be turned on its pivot as desired and there clamped by pad J. lVhen the drillspindle is completely raised 9o in its bearing, the stud O engages such toolshank as may be in the spindle-socket and expels it.

I claim as my invention# 1. In a drilling-machine, the combination, substantially as set forth, of a vertical column, a table-arm pivoted thereto near the base and capable of a swinging motion with reference to the column, a table carried by the outer end of said table-arm, au arm-sadico dle fitted for vertical adjustment upon said column, a radial arm Carried by said saddle upon a Vertical pivot, and a spindle-bearing tted for horizontal adjustment upon said ra- 5 dial arm.

2. In a drilling-1nael1ine, the combination, substantially as set forth, of a column, a table-arm carrying a table and fitted for swinging motion near the base of the Column, an

Io arm-saddle fitted for vertical adjustment upon said column, a radial arm pivoted to said saddle and carrying a horizontally-adjustable spindle-bearing, Clamps for fixing the saddle in adjusted position with refer-A 15 ence to the eolumn,'and a Clamp for fixing
