VILLIS H. LANDON, OF BALTIMORE, MARYLAND, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO BENJAMIN F. HUNT, OF SAME PLACE.
GRAINING-ROLLER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 449,079, dated March 21, 1891. Application filed June 2l, 1890. Serial No. 356,220. (No model.)
To all whom t may concern..-
Be it known that I, WILLIS H. LANDON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Baltimore, in the State of Maryland, have in- 5 vented certain new and useful Improvements in Graining-Rollers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in graining-rollers for producing an imitation of ro a handsome grained wood on the surface of a soft Wood.
In the drawings annexed, Figure lis a side view of my graining-roller. Fig. 2 is a face view ofthe roller, showing the first stage of itspreparation. Fig. 3 is a View of the finished graining-roller. Fig. 4 shows a piece of soft Wood, such as poplar, Without grain that is distinguishable. Fig. 5 showspthe same kind of wood with the imitation graining.
zo The graining-roller comprises an iron core A, having a central hole B for a shaft and a steel band or rim coverO. The roller, with the steel cover, is placed in a lathe and turned, and by means of a suitable cutting-tool a line-surface d is cut over its entire face, as shown in Fig. 2. This line-surface is readily formed by cutting a continuous spiral line on the steel cover B, and this is the rst stage of preparation. A design for an imitation grainis then 3o laid off on the lined face of the roller with a lead pencil, and a suitable cutting or routing tool is employed to remove portions e of the lined surface and leave other portions intact or in relief, as shown in Fig. 3. In this 3 5 manner the steel cover of the roller may be engraved to show a design of any kind of wood grain. The roller is not required to have a flat face, as shown. It may have a face suitedfor molding of any design. In this 4o case, however, the line-surface must be formed by a tool that will cut unconnected ringgrooves instead of the spiral. A roller made and engraved in this manner is ready to be mounted in a suitable frame with suitable feed-rollers, so that when the rollers are in motion a board F of soft wood may be' subjected to the action of the graining-roller andhave the design Whichis engraved on the roller impressed or indented in the surface of the wood, as shown in Fig. 5. The indentations 5o d in the- Wood surface are made by those portions of the lined surface d on the roller which .were left by the routing-tool.
The action of the roller on the board is sim ply to impress or indent the design into its surface.
Having described my invention, I claim- 1. The graining-roller herein described, consisting of the metal core A, provided with a steel band or rim cover O, having a design for 6o an imitation Wood grain on its surface, said design being a lined surface d in relief, said surface being substantially of the same height and havingitslines extending in substantially the same direction, as set forth. l
2. Themethod of preparing a graining-roller, consisting in first placing the roller in a lathe and turning it and cutting a continuous spiral line over the entire surface, and then with a suitable cutting or routing tool removing 7o portions of the-said lined surface, leaving the design formed by the spiral line in relief, as set forth. A
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
VILLIS H. LANDON.
