SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 718,480, dated January 13, 1903. Application filed April 12,1902. Serial No. 102,501. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that LHARRY 0. LA FLAMBOY, a citizen of the United States, residingat Detroit, county of Wayne, State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Match-Box-Making Machines;
and I declare the following to be a full, clear,
and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to match-box-makin g machines; and it consists in the improve- I 5 ments hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claims. p
Referring to the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a side elevation,partly broken away to show its internal construction, of a machine embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation of the same, the section being taken on the line 2 2, Fig. 1, the left: hand portion being shown. Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail view showing the left-hand end of the machine as shown in Fig. 1. Fig. t is an elevation showing the right-hand end of the machine as shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a plan view of the machine, a portion being broken away at the right to economize room. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the box formed upon the machine. Fig. 7 is a plan view showing the blank from which the box is made and illustrating the manner of cutting the paper to form the blanks. Fig. 8 is a per- 3 5 spective View of the box-forming frame. Fig. 9 is a section in the plane indicated by the lines 9 9, Fig. 8. Fig. 10 is a section in the plane indicated by the line 10 10, Fig. 8. Fig. 11 is a plan view of two of the box-forming frames connected together and constituting two links of the chain, together with some of the then adjacent parts of the machine, illustrating the method of turning the end flaps of the side-forming part of the blank inward. Fig. 12 is a plan view of two of the box-forming frames connected together and constituting two links of the chain, together with some of the then adjacent parts of the machine, illustrating the method of turning up the endformingpart of the blank. Fig. 13 is a detail view of the blank-cutting knife andpart of the table.
Referring to Fig. 7, the blank is an oblong rectangular piece of paper having at its ends slits a a a a the height of the ends of the box and located a distance from the side edges of the blank equal to the height of the sides of the box. Lines joining the inner ends of said slit-s, the cross-lines being extended to the lateral edges of the blank, divide the blank up into nine parts, which are described as follows: A is the bottom-forming part of the blank. A A are the side-forming parts of the blank. A A A A are end flaps upon the parts A A. A A are the end-forming parts of the blank.
Referring to Fig. 6, the box is formed from the above-described blank in the following manner: A little glue is placed upon the inside of the end-forming portions of the blank, toward the ends thereof, as indicated by the shaded portions a Fig. 7. Each of the parts A A, together with its end flaps A A is then turned up into a vertical plane. The end flaps A A are then turned inward into planes at right angles to the parts A A. Now the end-forming portions A A are turned upward, bringing the glue 0, a a a against the outside of the flaps A" A A A and thereby securing the various parts in their proper rela- 8o tive positions, as illustrated in Fig. 6.
The box-forming frame 13 is illustrated in detail in Figs. 8, 9, and 10, in which E is an oblong rectangular frame the opening through which is of the width of the box to be formed and of alength equal to or slightly exceeding the length of the blank from which the box is formed. B B are two flangesof .about the length of the box and of a width about equal to the depth of the box. 'The flanges B extend downward from the edges of the opening of the frame B, so that their inner surfaces are'in line'with said edges. The ends of the flanges B are at a distance from the ends of the opening through the 5 frame B equal to or a little greaterthanthe length of the flaps A. B is an overhanging tongue'secured at one end to'the frame B, extending upward, then turning parallel to the plane of said frame, and extending above the center of the same. B is a block of the size of the interior of the box to be formed, around which block the box is formed. The block B acts, in connection with the frame B and flanges B, as a die to bend up the side pieces A of the blank. B is a rod rising from the center of the block B and extending through an aperture in the tongue B. B is a roller pivoted upon a horizontal axis at the top of the rod B. B is a tension coilspring, acting to lift the block B to the upper limit of its travel. B indicates hinges by which the different frames B may be connected together. C is a chain made up of a large number of frames B, hinged together, with their longer edges toward each other. C C are rollers having polygonal peripheries mounted so as to turn upon shafts C mounted in a suitable framework. C C Figs. 1 and 4:, are disks located upon opposite sides of one of the drums 0 upon the shaft C and adapted to be driven by the turning of said shaft. C indicates lugs extending laterally from the chain 0. C indicates cam-teeth extending from the peripheries of the disks 0 and adapted to engage the lugs C to move the chain Cintermittently. F is a presser-plate adapted to press a large number of blocks B into their openings in the frame B. The plate F is located above a portion of the chain 0' and is secured to the guided and verticallyreciprocating arms F F F F are springs acting to press the arms F F", and consequently the plate F, to the upper limit of their travel. F is a horizontal shaft restingin bearing upon standards above the arms F F F indicates cams upon the shaft F, adapted to contact a cam-s11 rface on the top of the rods F to drive said rods downward. F is a pulley upon the shaft F. F is a bevel gear-wheel upon the end of the shaft F. F is a vertical shaft extending at right angles to the shaft F". F is a conical gear-wheel upon the upper end of the shaft F gearing with the wheel F The lower end of the vertical shaft F is geared to the shaft 0 so that the rotation of the former shall be communicated to the latter. D isa bevel gear-wheel upon the end of the shaft C D is a horizontal shaft extending at right angles to the shaft C D is a bevel gearwheel on the end of the shaft D gearing with the wheel D. D is a bevel gear-wheel on the endof the shaft D. D is a Vertical shaft having a bevel gear-wheel D upon its lower end which engages the bevel gear-wheel D D is a wiping-cam upon the shaft D the function-of which is to press in the flanges A as hereinafter described. There is a corresponding shaft and wiper, like D and D located behind the same. D is a flange ex- The cut blanks are placed upon the upper surfaces of the frames B, as hereinafter described, with the part A, which forms the bottom of the box, and also the parts A A which form the ends of the same, above the opening through said frame, and the parts A A, which form the sides of the box, lying upon said frame and supporting the blank. The presser-plate F is now depressed by means of the cams F F acting upon the cam-surfaces at the top of the rods F F The plate F strikes against the friction-rollers B at the tops of the rods B and forces the blocks B down into the opening through the frame B and between the flanges B, thus turning the sides A up between said flanges and block and turning the flaps A so that they extend beyond the block B in the same plane as the sides A. Cams C now engage lugs C upon the chain C, forcing said chain along. H is a flange lying parallel to the chain 0, around said chain and a distance therefrom equal to that of the top of the roller B when the block B is depressed. When the chain 0 is moved along, as above described, the frames B, which are under the presser-plate F, with their blocks B depressed with the blanks under them, are moved from under said plate and under the flange I'Lwhich holds said blocks down. As the flaps A ,which are in advance, come in contact with the flanges D the inwardly-beveled ends of said flanges, Fig. 11, press said flaps inward against the ends of the blocks B At or about this time the wiper-cams D D press the following flaps forward and inward against the end of the block B and as said block moves along all the flaps pass under the flanges D and are held in place thereby. As the boxforming frames move along they pass by the end of a flange E, which has a warped surface formed on its end adapted to turn up the ends A A of the box. When the ends of the box are turned up, the glue a a a a come against the flaps A A A A and secure the two in place, and therefore the box, into its proper form, as shown in Fig. 6.
The method of forming the blanks and feeding them to the machine is described as follows, particular reference being had to Fig. 2: The stiff paper or pasteboard J in the roll is placed upon a shaft upon the frame of the machine. It is then led over a roller J and under and around a roller J then between rollers J J and upon the table T. J is a trough containing glue or paste. J is a roller provided with radially-extending brushes j at its periphery. Said brushes dip into the glue in the trough J and come in contact with the paper as it passes under the roller J applying patches of glue a a a a, Fig. 7, to its surface. J J are rollers between which the paperj passes. The roller J is partly cut away at f, so that the rollers J J drive the paper which passes between them intermittently. J J are a pair of rollers entirely similar to J J except that they are pro Vided with circular cutting-knives extending the paper remains still.
around their circumferences, said knives being spaced from each other a distance equalto the width of the blanks for the boxes. F is a sprocket-wheel upon the shaft F. From the wheel F extends the sprocket chain K, which passes over and engages with a sprocket-wheel K, Fig. 5, upon the same shaft with the roller J The motion of the roller J is communicated to the roller J J by means of the shaft K and bevel-wheels K K K K K. -The shaft K is supported upon the frame of the machine in bearings K K10 K10. wheels K K and sprocket-chain K from the roller J J is an arm secured to the presser-plate F and extending over the roller J J is a knife on the free end of the arm J Theknife J reciprocates with the presser-' plate F and acts to cut the paper across at right angles to its length at intervals equal to the length of the blanks. The knife J is provided with smaller knives j, which extend at right angles to the main knife from each side thereof and opposite each other. The knivesj are adapted to cut the slits a, Fig. 7, in the blank. When the machine is set in motion, the paper begins to feed off from the roll, passing around the pulley J and, receiving the glue, it then passes between the rollers J by which it is moved forward at a uniform speed. Fromthe roller J the paper extends over a convexity in the table to the rollers J J by which it is also carried forward at the same speed as the rollers J except when the cutting knife J is down, during which time the cut-away portion of the roll J is opposite the roll J and During this time the paper bows upward, as at j, Fig. 2. After having passed the knife J 9 the paper passes between the rolls J J and is cut by the knives upon the upper roller. The blanks are now formed as shown in Fig. 7, and they arepassed between the guide-plates J upon the frames B at the end of the table T and beneath the presser-plate F. After being thus placed in position upon the frames B they are formed upinto boxes, as above described. The flange H turns up at h and is discontinuous to h. Between these two points the blocks B are free to rise under the impulse of their springs B The flange H at h is formed to extend over the top of the pulleys B in their most elevated position and to act-as a cam-surface to depress said rollers until they pass under the plate F at the lower portion of the stroke of said plate. M is a stationary cam adapted to engage the edges of the ends of-the box and draw them from the block. When each box is removed from the blockB it drops into the trough G, and is thereby conveyed to a convenient receptacle. The rollers which feed the paper are grooved so that they shall not come in contact with the glue upon the paper.
It will be observed that no preliminary preparation of the paper from which the blanks are made is necessary, but that the pa- The roller J is driven by sprocket 1. In a box-making machine, an endless chain consisting of a plurality of links piv-.
