NITED STATES GEORGE J. KUEIIN, OF DECATUR, ALABAMA.
BALlNG-PRESS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 614,961, dated November 29, 1898.
Application filed July 2, 1897. Serial No. 643,232. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORGE J. KUEHN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Decatur, in the county of Morgan and State of Alabama, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Baling-Presses; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to improvements in baling-presses; and it consists in the parts, arrangement, and combinations thereof hereinafter described, and particularly set forth in the claims.
In the drawings forming part of this application I have shown a practical embodiment of my invention, but do not limit myself to the precise construction therein shown, which is employed for the sake of illustration only.
In said drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the machine having the rear portion of the baling-box broken away. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the machine disconnected from the baling-box and having dotted lines showing the movement of parts when the machine is in operation. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal vertical section of the rotatory cross-head on the line 1 2, Fig. 2, when the rotatory crosshead is made to assume the position parallel with beam at, also showing step-box, annular groove, ball-bearings, and cross-head hub. Fig. 4 is a vertical cross-section of the reciprocating cross-head on the line 3 4, Fig. 2, showing antifriction roller adjusted to its bearings.
Similar letters and figures refer to similar parts throughout the several views, and all parts of my machine are constructed of any suitable materials.
The base or frame of my machine, consisting of the plates at a, and brace-rods 6 6, is adapted to be attached to the floor of any ordinary baling-press box 5 in any substantial way. To one end of plate a is rigidly attached bracket 0, in which, by means of bolt 0 is secured, so as to oscillate freely, the return end of lever a. To the other end of lever a is attached by bolt 0 so as to allow free oscillation, lever a and arm a, forming knee or joint lever 0 Arm 0 has the hooked or return portion 0 for the purpose of alternately and securely engaging lugs B B of rotatory cross-head B when the machine is in operation and by this means straightening knee as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. To the other end of lever a is attached, by means of bolt 0 the reciprocating cross-head c having the antifriction grooved roller 0 rotating upon it as an axis and adapted to travel freely upon the inner portions of guide-plates 13 13 as bearings, all for the purpose of lessening friction of the parts and to produce steady and even movement of the reciprocating crosshead a in transmitting pressure to the material to be compressed.
To reciprocating cross-head a is rigidly attached plunger 0 by means of pitman-rod 16, which on being reciprocated by means of the rotation of rotatory cross-head B, in combination with arm 0, knee a, reciprocating crosshead a is driven to farther end of stroke, (see Fig. 1,) thereby exerting an almost unlimited pressure on the material subjected to the baling process.
The baling-box or press-box 5 is of the ordinary form, construction, and dimensions, but any form, dimension, or construction of baling-box maybe used, to the floor of which myimprovement may be readily attached and by any ordinary means. 7
Lever a has the return portion or hook a which alternately engages lugs B B of rotatory cross-head B when rotated in the direction indicated by arrow, Fig. 2, thereby bending knee 0 and simultaneously forcing reciprocating cross-head 0 piston 16, plunger 0 arm 0, lever a and lever a, respectively, to assume the position indicated by dotted lines, Fig. 2, when rotatory cross -head B, with tongue 11 and strain-rod 11, reaches the position also indicated by dotted lines and showing plunger 0 at the near end of press-box 5, in which position the material to be baled may be supplied to the press-box by any and connection therewith and for said purpose substituting a system of belting or gearing instead of the lever or tongue attachment adapted to horse-power, as shown in the accompanying drawings, Figs. 1 and 2. Rotatory cross-head B is secured to frame-plate a, near one end, by means of king-bolt a", which also passes through step-box B. Step-box B is rigidly secured in any suitable way to frame-plate a, but as shown in the accompanying drawings by bolts.
Rotatory cross-head B is provided on each end with tongue and strain-rod seat 7 7 and tongue 11 and strain-rod 11 for the purpose of rotating the same. On the under part of each end of cross-head B are located the flatfaced lugs B B for the purpose of alternately engaging ends a of lever a and c of arm 0' during the rotation of cross-head B. Rotatory cross head B is also provided with strengthening-ribs B B above and rib a below, Figs. 1, 2, and 3.
D is a guide for the support of lever a, upon the surface of which it moves freely while the machine is in operation.
To more specifically set forth the practical working of my improvement, while in operation by rotating rotatory cross-head B in the direction of arrow return portion 0 of 0 will alternately engage lugs B B at position 8 (indicated by dotted lines, Fig. 2) and be carried to position 9, same figure, where it is automatically disengaged from lugs B B respectively, by heel or rear portion of same, at which point knee a will occupy position indicated in Figs. 1 and 2 and plunger 0 will be at extreme length of stroke and exerting its greatest pressure on the bale for compress. Immediately upon the release of c and the continued rotation of cross-head B the alternate lug B or B will engage return portion a of lever a and, assisted by reflex pressure of the bale in compress, force lever a again into position indicated by dotted lines, Fig. 2, its smallest angle, and plunger 0 has returned to its nearest point of stroke and the baling-press is open for the reception of more material for baling. Rotatory cross-head being revolved continuously the same movement of parts is repeated throughout and the objects of this invention and improvement fully accomplished, providing a baling-machine of simple parts and construction, of great power as a compressing-machine of the kind and character herein set forth, and of unequaled facility and rapidity in the production of the baled product.
I am aware that prior to my invention balin g-presses have been made with horizontallyreciprocating plungers. I therefore do not claim such a combination entirely; but
\Vhat I do claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In a baling-press, the combination with a base frame or support, and a plunger, of a rotary head on said frame, toggle-levers secured to the plunger and to the frame, one of said levers having a projection or hook at one end adapted to be engaged by said rotary head, an arm attached to the knee of said toggle-levers having a hook on its free end adapted to be engaged by a projection on said rotary head to straighten the toggles, substantially as described.
2. In a baling-press, the combination with a base-frame, and plunger, of a rotary head on said frame having at each end downwardly-extending lugs, toggle-levers secured to the plunger and to the frame, one of said levers having a projection or hook at one'end adapted to be engaged by said rotary head, an arm pivoted to the knee of said togglelevers having at its free end a hook adapted to be engaged by said lugs on the rotaryhead, substantially as described.
In a baling-press, the combination with a base frame or support, and a plunger, of a metallic head rotatively mounted on said frame, and provided on one side with seats for a tongue and strain-rod and on the other side with lugs projecting outwardly therefrom, toggle-levers pivoted to the plunger and to the frame, one of which levers has a projection or hook adapted to be engaged by said rotary head, an arm pivoted to the knee of said toggle-levers having at its free end a hook adapted to be engaged by said lugs on the head, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE J. KUEIIN.
