GEORGE A. FEDER, OE BELLEVILLE, ILLINOIS- SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No, 543,471, dated July 30, 1895. i
Application nea Aprn 22,1895. serial No. 546,627- (No model being had to the accompanying drawings,
forming a part hereof.
' My invention has relationtoimprovements in wire winding and distributing machines; and it consists -in the novel arrangement and combination of parts, more fully set forth in the specification and pointed out in the claims.
In the'drawings, Figure lis a plan view of my complete invention. Fig. 2 is a side ele- Fig. 3 isA a middle vertical longitudinal section 011 the line w of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a detail section on yy of Fig. 1, taken through the brake controlling the reel-shaft; andV Fig. 5 is a detail section, showing the mounting of the main driving-wheel.
' The present device is an improvementA on the Wire winding and distributing machine described in Letters Patent of the United States granted to me on April 2, 1895, and numbered 536,782, and has for its object to simplify the construction therein set forth, dispensing among otherthings with the friction-clutch secured to the main shaft and by which the rate of rotation of said shaft is controlled.
In my present device the variable rotation ofthe reel-carrying shaft is controlled by` a brake mechanism operating against the reel shaft, and is further controlled by varying the weight of the machine as a whole.
In detail the machine may be described as follows: 7
. Referring to the drawings, 1 represents the frame of the machine, at one side of which is mounted a wheel 2 carried by an ordinary axle, and on the opposite side is mounted a by a'pivoted brake shoe or plate 12, between the free end of which and the projecting arm 13 of the standard 1'0 is interposed a washer 14, the parts being secured by a bolt 15 passing through them. When the washer 14 is in place, as indicated in Fig. 4, the brake-shoe is out of actualcontact with the shaft 8, but
if the washer be removed and the free end of the brakeshoe be screwed down it will grip the shaft 8 and thus increase the friction against it during the rotation of said shaft. As stated above the pinion 7 is removable, being temporarily keyed to its shaft in any convenient mechanical manner.`
On the side of the machine adjacent to the drive-Wheel 3 is a box 16, adapted to receive weights-such as rocks, stones, and the likefor a purpose to be presently referred to. Along the forward and rear sides of the frame are disposed a series of outwardly-projecting forks 16- provided with aligningopenings for the insertion of pins 17. Between the members of the forks can be temporarily inserted the detachable cross-bar 18, to 'which the shafts 19 are secured at either end. One end of the bar 18 has a round opening through which the pin 17 at that end is inserted to hold the bar in place between the members ofA the fork at that end, and throughout the remaining portions of the length .of the bar are disposed elongated openings 2O 20 for the reception of the remaining pins 17. The-openings 20 are elongated, so that no time maybe lost in assembling the parts, as in attempting to insert the pins into circular openings the latter might not always be in alignment with the openings of the fork members.4
As seen in Fig. 1, the cross-bar 18, with its shafts 19, can be removed and transferred to' the opposite side of the machine, depending, ofcourse, upon the direction the machine isintended to be run. On either side of themachine may be disposed the vertical wire guide- IvOO slice by the bolt 15. In this way sufficient friction will be applied to the reel-shaft by the brake-shoe, and thus prevent the too rapid unwinding of the wire from the drum. On the other hand, in winding the Wire on the drum the machine is driven in the opposite direction, the Washer 14 is placed back between the brake-shoe and the'reel-shaft bearing to allow the shaft to rotate freely, the pinion 7 is placed back on its shaft, and in case the Wire is intended to be Wound very tightly and the ordinary weight of the machine be insufficient to accomplish the purpose of winding the drum Without causing the drive-wheel and the entire machine to slip on the ground, the device can be additionally weighted down by placing rocks or other Weightsinto the boX 16.
Of course the addition of rocks or similar ballast is resorted to where unusual tension is to be imparted to the wire, a purpose for which the ordinary weight of the machine would be insufficient.
As indicated invFig. 1, the wire can be wound from the opposite end of the reel eit-her by reversing the reel on its shaft (from which of course it can easily slip off) or by starting the Wire from that side in the first place, these conditions depending on the relative position the machine may occupy with reference to the fence or other object along which the distribution of the Wire is to take place. Thus it is seen that the motion of the reel-shaft is controlled directly either by varying the friction against it by the application of a brake- Shoe, or, on` the other hand, by varying the weight of the machine as a whole.
In Winding up the wire to prevent the interference of the same with the movement of the horse, the bar 18, with its shafts, is shifted to one side, as seen in dotted lines to the left of Fig. 1. The animal in this instance is hitched of course to one side of the center line of the machine.
Having described my invention, what I claim is- 1. In a wire Winding and distributing machine, asuitable frame, drive wheels mounted on said frame, a reel shaft adapted to be temcoupled from the gear Wheel carried by the drive wheel, a suitable receptacle for receiving variable quantities of ballast, and a brake shoe carried bythe reel-shaft-bearing adapted to exert variable pressure on the reel shaft, substantially as set forth.
3. In a lWire Winding and distributing machine, a suitable drive wheel, a reel shaft adapted to co-operate with the same, and a suitable receptacle carried by the frame for receiving variable quantities of ballast, thus varying the weight of the machine frame for correspondingly varying the tension of the wire on the reel during the draft of the machine along the ground, substantially as set forth.
4L. In a wire Winding and distributing machine, a suitable frame, drive Wheels mounted in the same, a gear wheel secured to one of said-wheels, a reel shaft, a removable pinion carried by said shaft and adapted to mesh with the gear wheel, a brake shoe pivoted to one of the bearings of the reel shaft, a removable washer interposed between the free i end of the brake shoe and the reel-.shaft bearing and adapted' when in place to keep the brake shoe o ut of actual contact with the reel shaft, a suitable receptacle for receiving variable quantities of ballast, and means for securing the parts', substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses. v
