SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 664,120, dated December 18, 1900.
Application filed January 16, 1900 Serial No. 1,635. (No model.)
new and improved micrometer-gage arranged to permit a correcting adjustment in case of deviations in the setting of the micrometer device on a beam and to permit convenient' adjustment of the micrometer device proper in case of wear on the anvil and spindle.
The invention consists of novel features and parts and combinations of the same, as will be fully described hereinafter and then pointed out in the claims.
A practical embodiment of myinvention is represented in the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the improvement arranged as a beam micrometer-gage. Fig. 2 is an enlarged side elevation of the micrometer device. Fig. 3 is an enlarged sectional side elevation of the same. Fig. 4 is an enlarged side elevation of the graduated sleeve for the spindle-head. Figs. 5, 6, and 7 are side elevations of the correcting-micrometer adjusted to indicate different correcting measurements. Fig. 8 is a transverse section of the same on the line 8 8 in Fig. 3, and Fig. 9 is a like view of the beam on the line 9 9 in Fig. 1.
The beam A of the micrometer-gage is provided at one end with an angular offset A, carrying a suitable anvil B, and on the beam A is mounted to move longitudinally a slide 0, having a shank O and the micrometer device proper, D, as is plainly illustrated in Fig. 1, the slide 0 being provided with a number of apertures 0 any one of which is adapted to be engaged by a pin E, adapted to pass through one of a series of apertures A formed in the beam A, to lock the slide 0 in position on the beam A.
The micrometer device D is provided with a spindle F in axial alinement with the anvil B, and on the shank C of the slide 0 is formed or secured a barrel G, formed with an internal thread G, on which screws an externallythreaded cylinder H, forming part of a sleeve H, extending over the barrel G, as is plainly indicated in Fig. 3, it being understood that the cylinder H and the sleeve H are concentric and are connected with each other by a cylinder-head H having an internal thread H in which screws the outer threaded portion F of the spindle F. The sleeve H is provided with the usual graduated end for indicating micrometer adjustment relatively to the barrel G, as is plainly shown in Figs. 1 and 2. Thus in using the micrometer device D the sleeve H is turned to cause its cylinder H to screw in or out in the barrel G, according to the direction in which the sleeve is turned, and as the sleeve carries the spindle F it is evident that the latter is moved longitudinally in the shank O to change the distance between the anvil and the end of the spindle according to the desired measurement.
On the micrometer device Dis arranged a correcting-micrometer for adjusting the spindle F in a longitudinal direction when the latter is in an innermost zero position, and the slide 0 is secured to the beam A by the pin E engaging registering apertures O and A The correcting micrometer-gage is arranged on the outer end of the spindle F and the outer end of the sleeve H, as is plainly illustrated in the drawings, and said device is for this purpose provided with a head F on the outer end of the spindle F to fit into a correspondingly-shaped recess H in the head H of the sleeve II. On the head F is adj ustably held a sleeve I, formed at its inner end with split portions 1, (see Figs. 4 and 8,) and on said sleeve I is formed a circular zeroline J and an axial zero-line J, intersecting the circular zero-line J at the zero-point. Besides the zero-line J are subdivisional axial lines J and subdivisional circular zero-lines J at the right and left of the line J. The graduations thus produced by the several sets of lines at the left of the circular zeroline J are indicated by a plus sign, While those at the right of said line are indicated by a minus sign. The subdivisions formed by the graduations referred to indicate one one-thousandth, so that the correcting micrometer device can be utilized to adjust the spindle F relatively to the barrel G and slide 0 to one one-thousandth of an inch in either direction, as hereinafter more fully described.
The sleeve I is adapted to be locked in place on the head F by a jam-nut K, and in the said head F are fitted to slide obliquelydisposed pins L, adapted to engage with their outer ends the split portions I of the sleeve I, so as to press the said split portions against the inner wall of the recess H to lock the head F to the head H and consequently to prevent the spindle F from accidentally screwing in the sleeve H. The pins L are adapted to be pushed in an outward direction by a screw-rod N, having a bevel N abutting against the inner ends of the pins L, the screw-rod having its inner threaded portion N screwing in the spindle F. When the screw-rod N is turned to screw inwardly relatively to the spindle F, then the bevelN forces the pins L outward against the split portions 1 of the sleeve I, whereby the said split portions are forced in firm clamping contact with the head H to lock the two heads F and H. together. When the screw-rod N is screwed outward, then the resiliency of the split portions I causes the latter to move out of engagement with the head H to permit the operator to turn the sleeve Land with it the head F and spindle F, so as to screw the same in or outin the head H and sleeve H until the desired correctingadjustment is made. This correcting micrometerdevice is necessary for correcting any inaccuracies in the distances between the anvil B and theinnerend of the spindle, when the slide 0 is secured to the beam A by the pin E engaging the registering apertures C and A It is evident that when the apertures A are laid off inaccurately on the beam A and the slide 0 is secured to the beam at one of the said inaccurate apertures then the distance between the anvil B and the spindle F is inaccurate when the spindle is in zero position, and in order to overcome this inaccuracy it is necessary to adjust the spindle F according to the discrepancy. As is well known, the apertures A are laid off relatively to the anvil B, and the inaccuracy in boring said apertures is marked off on a strip 0, attached to the beam A adjacent to the apertures, as is plainly indicated in Fig. 1.
In the case in hand the apertures A are placed three inches apart, the apertures 0 being spaced one inch apart on the slide C, so that the latter can be secured to the beam Aat each inch, and on each inch-mark formed on the strip 0 is indicated the discrepancy or inaccuracy, either plus 'or minus. If the right-hand aperture 0 on the slide 0 registers with the first aperture A on the beam A, then the rectangular aperture C on the slide 0 is over the one-inch mark on the strip 0. The measuring capacity of the micrometer in this position of the parts is one inch, and the desired measurementis made by turncordingly. As shown in Fig. 1, the slide C stands at the six-inch position, the distance between the anvil and the spindle F being five inches with the sleeve II in zero position. It is understood that in all adjustments of the slide 0 on the beam A the distance between the anvil and the spindle F is one inch less than the amount that appears in the aperture C with the sleeve II in zero position. Now in the instrument shown in Fig. 1 no discrepancy exists at the one-inch mark of strip 0; but for the two-inch mark a plus discrepancy exists of .0025 of an inch-that is to say, when the middle aperture on the slide 0 registers with the aperture A and the pin E is inserted and the spindle F is at zero position then the distance between the anvil B and said spindle F is 0.9975 of an inch, and consequently the spindle F has to be adjusted to add to the distance by .0025 of an inch. This is done by the operator unlocking the pins L by unscrewing the screw-rod N outward and then turning the sleeve I, and with it the head F and the spindle F, until a micrometer reading .0025 is obtained on the line H on the head H and on the plus side of the zeroline J. If the left aperture C is in register with the first opening A and the pin E is inserted in said registering apertures, then the distance between the anvil B and the spindle F when at zero position should be two inches; but as the graduation on the strip 0 indicates minus .0012 at the three-inch mark it is evident that the correcting micrometer device has to be employed to adjust the spindle F correspondinglythat is, itis screwed inward by turning the head F until a reading is obtained on the minus side of the line J and relatively to the line H" to correspond to minus .0012 of an inch. (See Fig. 7.) It is understood that after the adjustment has been made by the correcting micrometer device the spindle F is again locked in place on the sleeve H, and the micrometer-gage is then used in the usual manner.
The graduation on the sleeve I serves the further purpose of permitting a ready adjustment of the spindle F in case it is necessary to compensate for wear on the measuring-faces of the anvil B and the spindle F. This is effected in the following way: If the faces are worn, the sleeve I is unlocked by the jam-n ut K, and then the sleeve is screwed outward on the head F a distance corresponding to the amount of wear which had been previously determined and which amount is readily indicated by following the micrometer reading on the sleeve I. The latter is then again locked in position by the jam-nut K. The spindle F has now to be screwed farther the same distance into the cylinder H to bring the zero-point of the cylinder I to zero position on the line H whereby the wear is taken up, it being understood that the thread F has the same pitch as the measuring-threads G. The compensation for the ing the sleeve H to move the spindle F aci wear on the measuring-thread is obtained by a nut P, screwing in the outer end of the barrel G and on the measuring-th read. The outside thread of the nut P is of a finer pitch than that of the inside thread. For instance, the inside is forty pitch and the outside fortyeightpiteh. Nowifthenutisslightlyscrewed it will, on account of its larger inside pitch, force the cylinder H, and with it the sleeve H, in the opposite direction against the thread G, thus taking up the wear. The nut P can also be made with a coarser thread outside and a finer thread inside,the compensating action then being the same as above described, only in a reversed order.
Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1.
