Letters .Patent No. 71,492, dated November 26, 1867.
IMPROVEMENT IN APPARATUS FOR APPLYING GLASPS T0 SKIRTS.
T0 ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: i l" j Be it-known that I, JAMES JENKI-Nsow, ot Brooklyn, in the county of Kings, and State oi' New York, have `invehtcd certain' new and useful Improvements onlMaehinesfor Feeding and Applying Spangles or 4Clasps to Hoop-Skirts, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being hadto the accompanying drawing, forming part et' this specification, and in which- 4 Figure 1 represents a side elevation of a machine constructed according to my improvement. Figure a plan of the saine, and l Figure 3 is a front view of the hopperdetachcd. i Likelctters indicate corresponding parts throughout thc several figures. i p This invention relates t'o machines used in clasping hoop-skirts that employ ahopperor supply-box, inclined if ,t feeding-plateor plates, and oblique guides or conductors, operating in conncctionwith slots, to feed anddirect, by the trcmulous. motion of the machine, the clasps or spangles in succession to a suitable passage-way, which conduct them in regular order to the climbing-mechanism that may be operated by the foot'while the hoops j 1M and tapes of the skirt are adjusted by hand. In such machines much waste occurs, and great diliculty has been experienced in feeding to the supply-passage of the clinche'r the spanlgles, owing in part to their smallness, lightness, and ppculiarity of shape, and partly to their want of uniformity in size,`and liability to their clogging and rendering frequent stoppage necessary to remove imperfect ones that only'obstruct, and partly owing tothe l tendency ot' such articles to overcrowd without a sniciently freeor ready escape for the surplus, and without `adequate means for turning or adjusting the spangles to a proper position, or automatically removing those` j which cannot be readilyso adjusted.v These being thel maindiiculties in such fmachines, my invention seeks l `to obviatc them; and the nature of it consists, in combination with a stationary lower inclined feed-board, of a variableor adjustable inclined preparatory feed-plate or board; likewise, in a guidebar provided with a turnover plate on the seconder lower feed-board; and, furthermore, in a li'xed gate'at thc `bottom of the lower p feed-board, with a divider or guide controlled bya spring, and in a novel arrange'mcntof a slot or slots in said p j board, all of which, acting either separately or in unison, serve to accomplish the ends'in view, as hcreinbcforc ret-'erred to.
Referring to the accompanying drawing, A represents the supply-box, in which the spanglessto he fed tc the clinching-mcchanism are placed; B, a preparatory inclined feed-board, andC a lower inclined feed-platea f This latter device, though it may have its inclination varied or adjusted in common with that of the upper feedl plate B, and, it may be, supply-box A, byineans of an adjustable rod, D,Vis designed, after being so set, to i j i have a fixed inclined position, as it is found that such insures greater certainty of a proper run or feed of the j spangles to or against the devices arranged thereon or in connection therewith for dividing, directing, or turn ing and delivering the spangles,lwhile to vary'the inclination of the feed, as is from time to time necessary during the working of the machine, the preparatory board B has its inclination made adjustable by means of a rod, E, tted to slide on the main rod D, and secured by a set-screw, a, and the supply-bx A may be made similarly adjustable by means of a rod, F, held at any desired point on the rod E by a set-screw, l. Furtheri more, to regulate the supply and run er feed of the spangles, I furnish the supply-box A with a sliding gate, C G, adjustable by screw and slot from above, or otherwise, to regulate and determine the delivery of the spanglcs from the supply to the preparatory-board B, adjustable, in respect to its inclination, as described, and which is i provided with an oblique guide, H, the slope'or` Obliquity 'of which may be varied by a screw-attachment, e, orr otherwise, to further regulate the feed or run of the spangles to the lower board C. This second orlower inclined delivery-plate or board O, which, as before stated, is designed in general working to have a permanent inclination, is provided with, in moderately close proximity to its one side or edge, a guidngbar, I, having. a slot, d, in the board beneath it for the escape of dust and dirt, and which guiding-bar has connected with it, `at i or near its bottom, a turn-over plate, J, on the inner side of which is a slot, e, that, in connecticnwith a divider, w p K, performs, as will be hereinafter described, an important function. This divider projects through the rimf of the lower feed-board, on the opposite side of the slot e, to which is the turn-ove;` plated, and hung on a pivot, t as at g, is controlled by a spring, h, and, in addition to its functions as a divider, lifts or may be lifted in case` t j er i, of clogging by dirt or spangles of an eXtreme size or shape. Otherwise this arrangement, in connection Awith a l l 'l l Suitable opening through the rimf, forms a fixed gate for and to control the delivery of the spangles. On the opposite side of the divider K, to which is the slot e, is` an opening, z', and, on the reverse or outer side of the turn-over plate J and guiding-bar I, an opening, 7c, both communicating by a suitable chute or chutes N with a receiving-box, L. M is a grooved passage or way to conduct, as in other machines, the' spangles in regular order, as they are passed from the devices before named to the clinching-punch P, operated by a lever, O, in the ordinary or any suitable manner for insertion of the spangles and securing of the hoops and tapes by them,
` as has heretofore been done.
The advantages of the construction and operation of the devices for regulating the feed, as herein described, having already been speciiied, it will suiiicc, in conclusion, to state that such spangles that, in their feed down the inclined board C, assume the position represented for the spangle 8as represented by black `lines in g. 2, and directed by the guiding-bar I, are separated from the rest, and led, by the tremulous motion of the machine, through the fixed gate at the bottom of the board .C directly and .in proper order 4into 'the grooved passage'. M, while such spangles as assume the position shown for the spangle s, by red lines, are caught by their one prong by the turnover plate J and set or turned over into a right position to pass through .the iedgate and enter the grooved `passage M, Whereas such spangles as occupy the position for the spangle s, shownl by blue lines,
are, through their bodies entering the'slot e, and by the action of the divider, delivered by the chute N into the receiving-box L, as are all other spangles assuming other improper positions, or of extreme size or shape, and all lsnrplus spangles, the openings and c furnishing a ready escape for them. In this way are stoppages of the machine for adjustment rendered less necessary, less waste and loss of time is incurred, andthe spanglcs, if even Vassuming a wrong position at first, are fed in proper order for clinching. i
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is Y 1. The combination, with a supply-box or hopper, A, and stationary inclined feed-board C, ofthe preparatory or intermediate feed-board or plate B made adjustable as regards the inclination of its surface, substantially as specified.
2. The turn-over plate J, in combination with the guide-bar I, for purpose or purposes herein set forth. y ,s
3. The arrangement of the slot e inthe inclined feed-board or plate C, with relation to the divider K, for action together, as herein set forth.
"4. The divider K, hinged at its outward end, so as to be capable of being raised for the passage of the dirt or clearance of an imperfect spangle without removing the gate, substantially as specified;
J. JENKIN SON.
