UNITED STATES PATENT CEEICE.
CHARLES E. CARPENTER, OE LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY.
MAGNETIC TOOL.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 429,012, dated May 27, 1890.
Application filed August 17, 1889. Serial No. 321,052. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern-1' Be it known that I, CHARLES F. CARPENTER, a citizen of the United States, and a resident ot Louisville, in the county of Jefferson and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Electro-Magnetic Tools; and I do declare the following` to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
Figure Iv of the drawings is a representation of a central vertical section of myinstrument. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the upper portion ot the instrument. Fig. 3 is a top view. Fig. 4t is a sectional view of the lower portion ot the instrument in reversed position. Figs. 5 and G are details.
This invention relates to instruments for effecting rapid intermittent blows or strokes when infiuenced` by an electric current; and it is designed chiefly for cutting stone and other hard substances.
In the accompanying drawings, the letter A designates a cylinder or case, which may be made of soft iron, and to which is connected an inner hollow or bored cylinder or case B of soft iron, which is surrounded with the coil C, of insulated wire of low resistance-tor instance, No. I2 Birmingham wiregage-forming an electro-magnet, the ends ot thev coil-wire being connected to the contact-post D and the binding-post E, which receives one ot the wires from the battery or generator.
E is the binding-post for the return-wire.
In the hollow core-cylinder is located the central rod-hammer F, which is of bronze or some metal of no magnetic power, to the rear end of which is secured the armature G, which is provided with perforations g or passages to permit the ready escape of air from one side of said armature to the other during its rapid movements.
I is a spring or elastic butter connected to the armature or its hammer, and I is the retracting-sprin g ot the hammer.
Attached to the cylinder is a tubular guide J J J, within which is carried the anvilpiece or bit-carrier K, having upon it a collar k. This anvil-piece is preferably of a cylindrical form, as also is the hammer-rod, and these parts are in axial relation to the cylinder-core of the electro-magnet. The anvil-piece is provided with a guide or slot, as at a, which is engaged b y a pin l), which keeps the anvil-piece from turning in the guidetube, while allowing it a certain amount of reciprocating motion. Back of the collar and seated thereon is a leather washer c, which may be of any thickness required, to limit, the back movement ot' the anvil-piece in accordance with the workin hand. The washer c in its back movements engages the interior shoulder d of the tubular guide, which is usually made in several pieces, as shown, for convenience in construction. The anvilpiece is provided at its end with a chuck or socket for the bit L. In the tubular guide is made a slot or opening e, extending lengthwise, through which projects the arm f, which is attached to the hammer-rod, said arm having with said hammer-rod motion ot reciprocation when the instrument is in operation. Between the collar 7c and the lowerinterior shoulder al of the tubular guide is the retracting-spring I of the anvil-piece or toolcarrier.
Connected to the binding-post E is a springcontact N, which is armed with platinum at n. This platinum plate, resting on the post D, colnpletes the circuit through the coil C. Connected to the binding-post E is the springcontact P, also armed with platinum, as at p, its platinum plate being, however, normally out of contact with the platinum plate n, but
capcble of motion toward the same when pushed by the arm f of the hammer F, and
Vwhen said arm f in its forward movement has eitected contact between the plates n and p, short-circuiting the coil C, its motion continues for an instant sufiicient-ly to lift the contact-plate n. from the post D, so that the current cannot pass through the coil, but passes by the spring-con tacts N and P from one binding-post to the other, and `the attractive power of the electro-magnet is destroyed without the injurious concomitant of the spark.
The retracting-springof the hammer I acts instantly upon the change of circuit, pushing IOO back the armature which has been relieved from magnetic attraction and allowing the anvil-piece or tool-carrier, actuated by its .re-
tracting-spring I, to return toits normal position. The return of the hammer drawing back the arm f, the contact P falls, closing the short circuit and opening the circuit through the coil of the electro-magnet, which again a-ttracts the armature and causes the hammer-rod to strike the rear or inner end of the anvil-piece or bit carrier, causing thc same to Inove forward sharply in its guide in an effective manner for working its bit or chisel in cutting stone.
To cut oif the current from the coil and short circuits, I have provided a movablekey It, which operates when moved in one direction to push the contact N from the post D without moving the contact I. By means of this device the action of the instrument can be caused to cease instantly, a slight pressure of the finger being suiticient.
To control and regulate the stroke of the hammer through the movement of the armature, I provide a governor Y, which may consist of a cushion-spring S and a slide i", having a linger-stud and a flange provided with an inclined edge Z, adapted to engage the spring S.
When the hammer and armature are retracted by the spring I, the buffer-spring I engages the cushion-spring S, which limits the movement according to its adjustment, which is effected with the greatest facility by moving the slide S.
The cut-off key R is armed with an operating end R, of cbonite or other non-cond ucting material, and engages a plate` carrying a nonconducting bearing p. The bindingpost-s and the post D are insulated by suitable bushings of non-conducting material.V
I prefer to arrange the eut-off key R at one end of the incasement or cylinder handle and the governor V at the other end thereof, so that in operating the instrument the governor Inay be manipulated by one hand, while the other is free to direct the bit and to use the cut-off key when necessary.
The mechanism at the end of the electromagnet is protected by coverings indicated at U, these being' preferably of spherical or rounded character in order that the instrument may be moved in the hand with facility.
The character of the regular stroke of the instrument is determined by the thickness of the washer or adjustable stop c, which limits the back movement of the anvilpieee, and the instrument should be set for the work in advance but the variation of stroke required in the course of. the work is eifected without stopping the action of the instrument by means of the governor V, which limits the back movement of the hammer-rod.
IIaving described this invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-
l. In an electro-magnetic cutting-instrument, the combination, with the electro-magnet having a hollow core, the armature, axial hammer-rod, and axial anvil-piece or bit-carrier, of the retractiiig-springs, the governor, and the short-circuiting device operated by the electro-magnet through the hammer-rod, consisting of the hammer-arm f, the plates n, and p, post D, and spring-contacts N and P, substantially as specified.
