UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ELECTRICAL FORGING COMPANY, OF MAINE.
ELECTRIC CONNECTOR FOR CONVERTERS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 475,180, dated May 17, 1892.
Application filed May 14, 1891. Serial No. 392,707. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE DEXTER BUE- TON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Boston, in the county ofSuifolk, in the State of Massachusetts, United States ofAmerica, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Electric Metal-Heating Apparatus, of which the following is a specification.
Tlle object of this invention is to secure adjustability of the connectors 011 the electric converter, whereby the conductors leading therefrom may be shifted in position, as desired, to accommodate the work.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents. a plan of a portion of a currentconverter, an electric forge, and flexible cables connecting the rings of the converter With the forge, the inner ends of the cable being connected with the rings of the converter by these improved connectors. Fig. 2 represents a vertical section through one of the converter-rings and its connector.
Similar numerals of reference represent corresponding parts in both figures.
The positive ring and the negative ring 11 of an electric-current converter are provided with grooves 12 and 13 on their upper and lower faces.
Each of the connectors comprises two clam ping-plates and 21, provided with bulges forming together a socket or binding-post 22 for receiving one end of one of the conductors, said plates being bolted or otherwise fastened together. These plates are provided at their inner ends with flanges 23 and 24,which extend above and below the upper and lower edges of the converter-ring. Hooks 25 and 26 extend from the outer ends of the flanges and engage the grooves of the converter-ring. A set-screw 27-servesto tightly clamp the connector against the ring.
In the use of this adjustable connector by loosening the set-screws the connectors may be adjusted at any point on the converterring and placed at greater or less distances apart.
I claim as my invention- 1. The COl1lbllltl1lOll,Wltl1 a converter-ring, of a connectorconsisting of aclainp provided with a binding post or socket and with hooks engaging said ring.
2. The combination, with a converter-ring provided with grooves on its upper andlower faces, of a connector consisting of a clamp provided with a binding post or socket and with hooks engaging said ring.
