IMPROVEMENT IN MACHINES FOB. CUTTING OUT THE BODIES 0F FRUIT-BASKETS.
@he Stigrhnle rtfrmh tu itt tlgrst rtttts @anni nnb limiting grat nf tige same.
TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Be it known that I, HENRY MELLISH, of Walpole, in the county of Cheshire, and State of New Hampshire, have invented certain new and useful Machinery for Making Bodies of Fruit-Baskets; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the annexed drawings.
I will first describe which I consider the best mode of carrying out my invention, and afterwards point out the features which are new.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the machine.
Figure 2 is a view of the cutters, and alsovof the rings and other apparatus that are attached to them; they being detached from the machine so as to show their forms more distinctly.
Figure 3 is a plan view ofthe machine with a log in place.
Figure -l is a side view of a fruit-basket, such as my machine aids in making.
Figure 5 is a vertical section of the lower portion ofsueh basket on alarger scale.
Figure 6 is a. cross-section through a portion of the side of such basket on a still largei` scale, showing the upper edge only.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts in all the figures.
Reference being had to the drawings, A A isthe frame of the machine, B the driving-arbor and feedingscrew to which the driving-pulley C and pinion D are attached. This arbor and the head centre arbor E, to
which the parc-plate on chuck F and the main drivinff-gear G are attached, are arranged to turn in boxes in a cross-rails a a at one end of the machine, the screw portion of the arbor B extending to a bearing, b, at the opposite end of the machine. Cl Cz are rails or ways on which are fitted the tail centre H and the sliding-rest I to hold and move the rings J J', to which the cutting apparatus is attached, so as to traverse securely on the ways. The taii centre rest f may be made fast at any point on the ways by turning down the nuts c e of the bolts d d, which pass up through the rest hooking on to the under edges of the ways. This rest projects in front of the way C2 to receive and hold the tail centre H in line with the head centre E. The tail centre may be moved forward and back in the hea-d of the rest with the screw z, which works into it by turning the screwhandle i, and may be made fast with ythe set-screw j. The sliding-rest I has an opening or slot in it, which has one-half of a female-screw box, 7:, iitted to` slide in it, so as to connect with the feeding-screw B by pulling forward the lever Z, which crosses the rest on the under side, as indicated by the dotted red lines, and is attached to the box and the rest with the screws m m. There is a helical spring, n, on the under side of the rest, having one end fastened to the female-box, and the other to the rest I for the purpose of disconnecting the box from the screw B, and moving the lever back. o is a weighted lever so bent as to cross the under side of the slidingyrest and to catch against the lever Z when drawn forward, and to hold the box in connection with the feedingscrew. This lever turns in the capspp on the under side of the rest. There is a wedge or inclined plane, q, to lift the weighted end ofthe lever o, and'liberate its .opposite end from its hold upon the lever l, when the spring will move the box hack from the screw and the slide rest will stop, and may then bc shoved back upon the ways. J J are stout rings xed to the slide rest and receive the log'within them, and they also hold the cutting apparatus firmly and present the cutters at such points on the logl as may be required. K is the main cutter, and is mounted adjustably on such ring, so that by slaekening the bolts r r, which extend through the slots s s, in its ends, (sce fig. 2,) I can shift either end inward or outward to change the plane of the knife or cutter K. This knife is to parc the shaving or body of the basket from the log, and its edge should be made crooked to correspond with the inside surface of the lower end of the same, so as to lock into the groove in the bottom, L, of the basket, (sce hg. 5.) This knife has a supplementary knife, M, attached to it, of proper form to cut the rebate u, (scc fig. 5,) at the lower edge and on the outer surface of the shaving to receive the annular ring on the outside of the groove v in the bottom ef the bastiet. N is an adjustable cutter attached in the ring J', (see its form, iig. 2.) which acts on the login advance of the main cutter and squares the lower edge of the shaving. O is a crooked adjustable cutter in a. recess in the ring J; fastened by a bolt, w, its use bcingto pare the log in advance of entering the ring, (see iig. P is a corresponding cutter attached in a recess in ring J', for the purpose of fitting the core after cutting a tier of shavings from thc log for-a smaller-sized ware. P',
GBAH
(sec fig. 2,) is a cutter attached to the ring .I for the purpose` of forming the exterior surface of the head of thel basket. g is a wheel or skeleton, conical in form, and carried in adjustable boxes :c :c in the projections oi the rings J J', and is made fast with the bolts and nuts y y, and is adapted to roll on the surface of the log by thc friction produced by their contact. This wheel carries a rigid knife, R, which, at cach revolution of the wheel, is sunk into the surface of the log in advance of thc knife or main cutter K, to a depth equal to the thickness of the shaving to be cnt olf; by which means a longitutlinaldivision is made in the sharing. and as soon :rs the wood at this point has reached the main cutter the shaving is completely divided and falls from the machine. For making` baskets to contain fruit requiring ventilation. I produce holes near the bottom with the Ushaped cutters Z, which cut into the log through thc thickness of the shaving to be pared olf, so that when thcinain cutter pares o5' the sharing the wood within the scores drops out. The condition of the shaving in this respect, when made up into a basket, is represented in fig. 4. It will be understood that different-sized logs may be cat in the same manner by attaching different-sized rings and cutting apparatus to the sliding rest of the same ma chine.
Operation..
Having suspended a properly steamed log, T, between the head and tail centres, and applying power to the pulley C, and haring connected the box in the slide rest to the feeding-screw D, and by pulling forward tho.
lever l, it will be seen that the log will revolve, whilst the rings holding the cutting apparatus will be drawn forward gradually over the log from the tail centre to the head centre, and that'the cutters malle stationary on the rings will give form to and pare oli' a sharing of proper form by helically cutting around the log from one end to the other, whilst it will at the same time bc divided into proper lengths by the rigid knife R, and scored by the U-sl1aped cutters Z to produce ventilation; so that the shavings by slightly springing from a helical te a direct circular form, and properly fastening them at the top, will produce vor constitute conical ventilated basket bodies, such as my machine makes, and such as is represented in fig, 4, whereit is represented with the bottom on. To produce tobacco covers the same operation of the machine is requisite, as a tobacco cover is nothing more or lessithan the body of a. basket cut and fastened at the top with a clasp, as if to be used for a baskety body without the Ventilating openings at the bottom. l K Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is as follows: Y v
1. I claim the two parallel rings JJ', enclosing the log and traversed along as the work proceeds, and
carrying the cutting apparatus, substantially in the manner herein set forth.
2. I claim, in combination with a machine cutting conical spiral shavings, the knife R carried on'a rollingl device as represented, and adapted to measure oif and cut uniform length of such shaving, as herein specified.
3. I claim cutting holes or slots in the bodies ot' baskets made from shavings, by means of the cutters Z, or
their equivalents, arranged and operating as specified.
4. Iclaim the supplementary cutters M and N, arranged and operating as and for the purpose herein` specified. Y
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my name` in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
HENRY MELLISH.
