GLASS-FINISHING APPARATUS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 558,537, dated April 21, 1896.
Application filed October 1, 1894. Serial No. 524,564. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern: tends to raise the collar 12, and thus to swing Be it known that I, SAMUEL G. VOGELEY, the levers 8 outwardly and to spread the 'of Pittsburg, in the county of Allegheny and former-sections 7. State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new 18 is a hollow post which is fixed to the plate and useful Improvement in Glass-Finishing 6 and projects upwardly therefrom. It con- Apparatus, of which the following is a full, stitutes a guide-socket in which a head 18 is clear, and exact description, reference being set and is vertically movable, and it contains had to accompanying drawings, forming part a spring 19 by which said head is pressed upof this specification, in whichwardly. 20 is a post or standard forming a 10 Figure 1 shows my improved apparatus in guide for the snap by which the glass article side elevation, partlyin vertical section.

The shaft ings 4, and is adapted to be rotated by gear 3 and with it the plate 6 and the former-sec- 25 ing 5. 4 tions are meanwhile rotated by the gearing 5,

40 the base of the plate 6. The pivotalmotion of The points of invention which I intend to the levers is effected by the following means: cover by this specification are the concave 12 is a collar which is longitudinally movable former-sections 7 7 and the inwardly-movable on the shaft 3 and is connected with the lehead 18, upon and against which the article vers S by links 13. A hand-lever 14: is fulis pressed when it is inserted into the space 45 crumed to a post 15, and at its end is forked within the former-sections. The use of this 5 and is fitted to a groove 16 on the collar 12, spring-backed head facilitates the insertion so that the collar may rotate with the shaft, of the glass article and prevents its distortion, and that by verticalv motion of the lever 14 since the spring is an easy and automatic dethe collar may be moved up or down. 17 is vice to permit the glass article to be pushed 50 a spring which bears upon the lever let and down gradually as it is being shaped, but to '100 hold it up at the beginning of the operation, so as to prevent its edges from being buckled by the former-sections.
I claim- 1. A glass-finisher comprising a rotary plate having external inwardly-movable formersections and carrying a central projecting support carrying upon its outer end the base of the inverted blank, said support being movable to and from the plate; substantially as described.
2. The combination of rotary inwardlymovable former-sections, and a spring-backed support or head contained Within the same and adapted to receive the glass article and I 5 to permit it to be inserted gradually Within the closing sections; substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand.
