UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE L. FOOTE, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
ELECTROMAG N ET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 668,257, dated February 19, 1902i.. Application filed October 19, 1900. -Serial No. 353,561. (No model.)
T0 cir/ZZ whom, it may concern.:
Beit known that I, GEORGE L. FOOTE, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have made certain new and useful Improvements in Electromagnets, of which the following is a specification.
My invention is an improvement in electromagnets, such as the sounders and .relays employed in the telegraph service.
My improvement consists in a means for adjusting the position of the armature without changing the position or stroke of the Vibratory bar employed.
I employ the usual arrangement of electromagnetic coils, limit-stops, and retractingspring, but attach the armature on the said bar adjustably. I prefer to pivot or hinge the armature and bar together. A spring is employed having a tendency to press the two parts or pieces in a Fixed direction, as toward each other, and an adjusting-screw is employed to separate the armature from the bar to whichitis hinged, pivoted, or attached, the screw acting against the spring-pressure.
The accompanying drawings illustrate my invention.
Figure l is an elevation 'of a main -line sounder containing my improvement. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same. Fig. 3 is a sectional view of the vibrating bar with the armature adjustably attached to it. The section is taken on the line 4 4, Fig. 4. Fig. 4Y shows the under side ot' the same bar on the line 3 3, Fig. 3. Eig. 5 is a rear end View of the bar, showing the hinge connecting the armature and vibratory bar together.
I employ the usual arrangement of magnetcoils m, with suitable cores having poles like 3l. The coils are fIxed to a metallic base 2l', having four points of support, 24 25 26 27, integral therewith, constituting a soundingboard. The sounding-board 2l is fixed upon the hase board 20, and there are suitable screw-cups 32, connected, respectively, with the coil-terminals. On the sounding-board 2l are located the yoke 22 and the anvil 23. 'n is a vibratory lever having a trunnion t, workingin the adjustable screw-bearings 40 in the yoke 22. There is a limit-stop 131 on the lower side of the bar n and an adjustable upper limit-stop 30 in the anvil-piece 23. The means preferred by me for adjustably supporting the armature d consists of a supplemental piece 0, having a transverse pivot p con necting it with bar fn.. There is a flat steel spring 3 fixed to the bar n by means of a screw 4l. The spring engages the extremity of the piece o beyond its point ot` support and exerts a constant tendency to force the opposite end of 0, to which the armature a is fixed by means 'of a screw 42, toward the bar n. There is a set-screw l0, with a check-nut 11, passing through a screw-threaded'aperture in the piece 0. The screw l0 engagesasocket l2 in the bar n. It will thus be seen that while the spring s has a constant tendency to force the armature a toward the bar n the screw l0 Inay be changed in position to vary the extent of the separation between o and n, so that while the extent of the movement of bar n-that is, its length of stroke-may be maintained uniform and unchanged the distance of the armature Cl, from the poles 3l of the magnet m may be changed at pleasure by adjusting the screw 10. The retractingspring 50 is shown as a compression-spring located between the adj usting-screw 51 on a cross-bar 52, fixed to yoke 22, and a projecting point 53, iixed to the bar n.
What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. In an electromagnet the combination of suitable electromagnetic coils, a vibrating bar, a retracting spring and limiting stops for said bar, a supplementary bar pivotally supported upon said Vibrating bar, an armature fixed thereto and means for varying the position of said armature with respect to said vibratory bar and the magnet-poles.
2. In an electromagnet the combination of suitable coils, a vibratory bar, a retractingspring and limit-stops therefor, a bar pivotedy to said vibratory bar, a spring acting to press said bars together, an armature xed upon the second-named bar and an adjusting device carried by one bar to limit the extent of separation of said bars.
3. In an electromagnetic sounder the combination of the coils, a vibratory bar having limiting-stops and a retracting-spring; an armature Inovably supported upon said bar, a spring pressing said armature in one fixed direction and an adjustable contact carried by one of said bars to limit the extent of separation of said armature and bar.
