Description
UNITED STATES JOHN S. SOHRAM, OF DAYTON, OHIO.
COLLAR-STUFFING MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 448,268, dated March 17, 1891.
Application filed August 4, 1890. Serial No. 360,919- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, JOHN S. SOHRAM, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dayton, in the county of Montgomery and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Collar-Stuffing Machines; andI do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the ac companying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to improvements in collar stuffing machines, the features of which will be fully hereinafter described and claimed.
The object of my invention is to increase the effectiveness by feeding the straw through a flexible hopper, within which the stuffing-rod is rapidly reciprocated. I attain the object by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure I is a front elevation of the machine with portions cut away. Fig. II is a horizontal section on line a, Fig. I. Fig. III is a horizontal section on line 3 Fig. I.
Like letters designate like parts in the several views.
The frame A is square in horizontal line and tapers to the top, where are bearings for the crank-shaft O.
B B are guides held central on cross-bars.
in the sides of the frame, and within which are grooves for the sliding bar F, and which is held in said grooves by the plate 3. This sliding bar is connected to the crank of shaft 0 by the pitman E. The driving-pulley D is attached to said shaft external to the frame. I11 the lower end of the sliding bar is a socket to receive the stuffing-rod G, which extends down through the flexible hopper I and the tube J, and terminates considerably below the latter. The stuffing-rod is like those in use, the lower end being like a series of truncated cones united, and the bases of which engage the straw in the operation of filling a horse-collar.
The carrier H comprises two parts, the top circular part to hold the upper end of the flexible hopper, and a corresponding part, but smaller, to support the lower end of said hopper. This carrier moves vertically in guides in the sides of the frame. Over these guides are pulleys m 777., and cords n n, attached to the carrier, pass over the pulleys, and on the ends of which are attached the counter-weights o 0.
The hopper I is made of leather or other flexible material, and the upper edge is bent over the circular edge of the carrier and se cured by screws or otherwise, and the lower end slips over the circular projection s, and is fastened by passing a cord or wire around the same.
The lines at S, Fig. II, show the outline of the lower part of the hopper, and to which is attached the lower end of the hopper. The tube J has a small flange at its top end and an inclining point, and is held to the lower part of the carrier by the collar 25, which is secured by screws. The counter-weights make it easy to change the position of the carrier as the stuffing progresses.
The operation may be thus described: a rapid movement is given to the stuffing-rod, a horse-collar is placed over the feed-tube, and the straw previously placed in the flexible hopper is carried down and impacted within said collar.
The general construction of the machine is similar to those in use, the novelty consisting in the flexible hopper and its support within the carrier-frame. The increased effectiveness over a rigid hopper consists in pressing by the hand the lower end of the flexible hopper against the sides of the stuffing-rod, thus compacting the straw within the notches of said rod, and thereby largely increasing the amount of cut straw that may be fed into a collar in a given time.
Having fully described my invention,what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, iS
In a collar-stuffing machine, the flexible hopper I, in combination with the carrier II, the feed-tube J and the reciprocating stuffingrod G, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JOHN S. SCHRAM.

B. PIoKERINe, CHAS. A. WALTMIRE.
