fiPECIFIGATIQIT forming part of Letters Patent No. 680,576, dated August 13, 1901.
Application filed April 23, 1901. Serial No. 57,108. (No model.)
Defiance, in the county of Defiance and State of Ohio, have invented a new and Improved Polishing-Machine, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The invention relates to woodworking-machines; and its objectis to provide a new and improved polishin'gmachine which is simple and durable in construction, very effective and automatic in operation, and designed for rapidly and accurately polishing or finishing handles for brooms, rakes, and other implements, or curtain-poles, pikepoles, and other round work of any desired length.
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 the invention is represented in the accompanying drawings, forming a part of thisspecification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the improvement. Fig. 2 is a transverse section of the same on the line 2 2 in Fig. 3. Fig. 3 is an enlarged longitudinal sectional elevation of the same. Fig. 4 is an end elevation of one of the feed mechanisms withthe casing removed. Fig. 5 is a like view of part of the same, showing means for moving the feedrollers in unison to and from the work; and Fig. .6 is an enlarged transverse section of the device for adjusting the polishing-belts.
A suitably-constructed bed A is formed at or near its middle with a transverse opening A for the passage of transversely-extending and oppositely-arranged belts B B, on opposite sides of which are arranged feeding de-' vices O O, alike inconstruct-ion and of which the feeding device 0 serves to rotate the unfinished work D and feed the same between the working faces of the polishing belts,
while the other device O takes hold of the finished work and finally draws it from the belts and discharges the work from the machine. The belts B B pass over the lower or driven pulleys E E, the upper or adjusting pulleys F F, and the intermediate pulleys G G. The lower or driven pulleys E E' are secured on shafts E E respectively, journaled in suitable hearings on the opposite sides of the bed A, and on the shaft E is secured a pulley E connected by belt with other machinery for imparting a rotary motion to the shaft E and this rotary motion of'the shaft E is transmitted to the other shaft E by pulleys E E and a belt E, as is plainly shown in Fig. 1. Thus when the shaft E is rotated both shafts E E are turned at the same time and their pulleysEE impart a traveling motion to the polishingbelts B B.
The upper or adjusting pulleys F F are journaled in bearings F each formed with a screw-rod F screwing in a nut F of a bearingF ,att-acl1ed to the shaft G on G or which the pulleys G G are mounted to rotate loosely. The shafts G2 G are journaled in suitable bearings in the bed A, and their outer ends carry segmental gear-wheels G G in mesh with each other, so that when one shaft is rocked a like rocking motion is given to the other shaft, so that both supports for the pulleys F Fare similarly rocked toward or from each other to move the runs of the belts B B toward or from each other, accordingto the diameter of the work under treatment. The segmental gear-wheels G G are formed with arms G G extending vertically and connected by a spring connection consisting,
essentially, of a spring H, attached at one end to the arm G and engaged at its other end by a screw-rod H, adjustably held in the arm G6 by a nut H The arms G G are loosely connected with each other by a limiting-link H made in sections H H connected with each other by a turnbuckle H for lengthening or shortening the link according to the size of the work under treatment. The outer ends of the sections H H? are formed with elongated slots engaging pins G in the arms G G so that said arms are limited in their outward or inward swinging movement by the link H Each of the feeding devices .0 0 consists, essentially, of a revoluble memberl, preferably in the form of a disk and having its hollow hub I" journaled in suitable bearings A attached to the top of the bed A, as is plainly shown in Figs. 1 and 3. On the hub I is socured a pulley 1 connected by belt with other machinery for imparting a rotary motion to the revoluble member I, it being understood that the work under treatment is passed through the hollow hub I, as indicated in Figs. 1 and 3. The revoluble member I is provided on its face with sets of bearings I for pivot-pins J, on which are fulcrumed arms K K, carrying shafts K K supporting rolls L L, respectively, between which passes the work D, and which rollers rotate bodily with the member I and are turned with their shafts K K so that the work D is not only turned, but is also at the same time caused to travel forward in the direction of the arrow a. (See Fig. 3.)
In order to impart the desired turning motion to the shafts K K and the rolls L L thereon, the outer ends of said shafts K K are provided with pinions N N,respectively, in mesh with intermediate gear-wheels N in mesh with pinions N secured on the faces of arched bevel gear-wheels O, in mesh with opposite sides of a master bevel gear-wheel 0, formed 'on the face of a pulley O mounted to rotate loosely on the hub I of the corresponding member I of the feeding device C or C. The pulleys O for the two feeding devices 0 C are connected by belts with other machinery, so that a rotary motion is given to the said pulleys and the master gearwheel Oindependent of the motion given to the revoluble members I, and consequently the rotary motion of each master gear-wheel O is transmitted by the bevel gear-weeels O to the pinions N which in turn, by the intermediate gear-wheels N rotate the gearwheels N N, and consequently the shafts K and K and the rolls L L. By the gearing described the rolls LL are turned in unison, so as to feed the work D forward in the direction of the arrow as, as previously mentioned, and as the rolls L L turn bodily with the revoluble members I it is evident that the work is turned at the time it is fed forward.
In order to securely hold the rolls L L of each feeding device C or O in proper contact with the work D, the arms K K are provided with friction-rollers P P, engaging inclines P P mounted to slide in bearings 1, arranged on the face of the revoluble member I. (See Figs. 3, 4, and 5.) The inclines P P are formed with racks P P in mesh with opposite sides of a gear-wheel P mounted to rotate loosely and centrally on the member I, so that the two inclines P P move in unison when a slidin motion is given to one of them. Springs Q Q pull on the racks P P and hold the inclines P P in firm engagement with the friction-rollers P P to swing the arms K K toward each other, and thus hold the rolls L L in firm contact with the work D. The springs Q Q are connected with screwrods Q adj ustably held in bearings J 5 on the member I to allow of adjusting the tension of the springs Q Q, and thereby hold the rolls L L with more or less force in contact with the work D.
By the arrangement described Work D of di Eerent diameters can be readily engaged by the rolls L L and turned and fed forward by the same in the manner above described, it being understood that the rolls L L are preferably formed at their peripheral surfaces with V-shaped angular grooves for readily accommodating work of different diameters.
The operation is as follows: "When the several parts are in position and a handle, for instance, is passed by an operator through the hollow hub I of the feeding device 0, as shown in Fig. 3, and the forward end of this handle finally comes between the rolls L L, then the latter turn said handle and 'feed it forward through a central opening in a casing inclosingthe mechanism on the front face of the revoluble member I of the feeding device O. The work now passes between the working faces of the polishing-belts B B at a point near the upper pulleys F F, as will be readily understood by reference to Fig. 2, and as the handle is turned and moved forward it is evident that the polishing-faces of the belts polish the handle, and thereby give a very high finish to the same. The forwardly-moving handle finally passes through a central opening and into the casing Igwhich incloses the mechanism on the face of the revoluble memberI of the feeding device C, and then the finished end of the handle passes between the rolls L L of the feeding device 0 and is fed forward in unison with the motion given to the handle by the rolls L L of the feeding device 0. Thus the handle is fed forward and finally passed through the hub I of the feeding device 0, the rear end of the handle finally leaving the feeding device 0 and being slowly fed forward by the feeding device 0 and finally discharged at the forward end of-the machine. (See Fig. 1.) By the arrangement described handles can be fed through the machine one immediately behind the other, so that a large number of handles can be turned out in a comparatively short time. I
