MARKING-MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 748,529, dated December 29, 1903.
Application filed September 3, 1903. Serial No. 171.798. (No model.) Y
To all whom, it Icq/tty concern: Be it known that we, GEORGE L. RICHARD- `soN and HENRY S. WILOOX, citizens of the actors to arrange different combinations thereof for distinguishing purposes.
The invention has for an object to improve `the construction and arrangement of the centering-lever, marking-dial, and cooperating platen, whereby a simultaneous movement ofthe marking-dial and platen toward and from each other is secured and an automatic movement of the inking-roller during the movement of the dial andplaten.
A further object of the invention is to provide improved locking means for the marking-dials, whereby any one or more of the same may be released and rotated while the remaining ones are held in their previouslyadjusted positions, and also to provide an indicating-dial operatively connected to the marking-dial, so as to rotate in unison therewith and indicate the character on the marking-dial which is turned into printing posil" tion.
Other' and further objects and advantages of the invention will be hereinafter set forth, and the novel features thereof defined by the appended claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a central vertical section through the machine. Fig. 2 is a top plan with a portion of the casing broken away. Fig. 3 is a front elevation of the upper portion of the machine, and Fig. 4 is an enlarged detail vertical section showing the marking-dial in its raised or initial position. Like letters of reference refer to like parts in the several figures of the drawings.
The letter A designates a standard or support of any suitable character,having secured to the upper part thereof a gooseneck headcasing A', which is provided at its front with an enlarged portion A2 to receive the operating mechanism and beneath this portion with a collar A3, through which the post of the platen is adapted to slide, as hereinafter described. At the rear of the head-casing A' the center- 35 ing-lever B is pivotally mounted -by means of the pivot pin or shaft B', and the forward end B2 thereof is projected at substantially a right angle to the depending end B3. This forward end B2 is provided with opposite 6o plates B4, which form a bifurcated or forked support for the indicating-dials C and the marking-dials D, hereinafter described. The depending end B3 of the centering-lever is provided with a plate E, having a lng E', 65 provided with a slot extending diagonally to vthe portion B3 of the lever, which slot is adapted to receive the pin E2, carrying a suitable friction-roller and extending between the bifurcated arms Esof the impression-lever 7o E4, which is pivotally mounted in the casing at E5. The opposite end of this lever is provided with a curved head E6, disposed within a slotted portion E7 of the post E8, which carries at its upper end the platen or impression-button E9, provided with an elastic or rubber cushion E10 to contact with the printing characters upon the dial D. The lower end of the depending portion B-3 of the centering-lever is provided with a slot B5, adapt- 8o ed to receive a pin B6, extending from acran klever B7, whichis pivotally mounted upon the standard at B8, and the opposite arm B9 thereof is connected by means of a rod with suitable mechanism for operating the same-for 85 instance, a treadle. The parts are normally held in their raised position by means of a springF connected at one end F to the end B3 of the centering-lever and atV its opposite end F2 to the post F3, carried by the stand- 9o ard, said spring being Vshown under tension in Fig. 1, wherethe parts are in printing or depressed position. A
The marking-dials D are rotatably mounted upon a rotatable-shaft Gr, which has its bearings at opposite ends in the bifurcated head B4 of the centering-lever, and one end thereof is extended through a suitable slotted aperture in the casing-head A' and provided with a milled operating-head G'. This shaft-G is loo provided with a recess adapted to contain a spring G2 and a pin G3, one of said pins being provided for each of the marking-dials D, and
tooth H', adapted tofit between adjacent' teeth of the gears D. The periphery of the marking-dial is provided with any desired number or character of printing devices. For instance,as herein shown, six dials are mounted upon the shaft, the two outer ones of which contain letters, that on the left being lettered from A to K and the dial upon the right having the letters from f L to Y, omitting theletters Q, II/and X. The intermediate dials are successively n umbered from l to O and are provided with a dash and blank space, the system of characters used being indicated upon the face-plate I, secured to the front casing A2 of the machine. The indicating-dials C coperate each with one of the marking-dials and are provided with teeth or faces C', containing char-` acters corresponding to those upon the marking-dials, said teeth being suitably spaced apart so as to forma meshing gear with the spaced characters D2 upon ther marking-dials, thus insuring positive rotation of the dials together as they are shifted and directly indicating the character which is disposed in printing position by means of the aperture C2 in the front of the casing, which may be provided with a suitable glass or other transparent protection.
The marking-dials D are normally locked by means of the latch H, so that they cannot be rotated upon the shaft G, an independent latch being provided for each of the dials;
This latch is slidably mounted at its opposite ends in cross-bars H2 and H3, carried by the bifurcated head B4, the end H4 of the latch being extended through said bars, while the latch is normally projected outward by means of a tension-spring H5 extending between the face ofthe bar H2 and a shoulder H6 upon the latch. This latch is adapted to be operated when the dials are in their raised position by means of a push-button I', mounted in the face-plate I and normally held projected by means of spring l2. The inner face of this button is provided with a contact-plate I3, adapted to contact with one end, H4, of the latch, thus-removing the tooth H thereof from contact with the indexing-gear D and permitting the rotation of the shaft G, which carries therewith the released marking-dial,
y the remaining dials being held by their latches and permitting the shaft, with the pin G3, to rotate within the hubs of the dials without changing the position thereof. One of these push-buttons is provided for each of the marking-dials and locking-latches connected therewith, so that each of the dials upon the shaft may be independently operated.
For the purpose of inking the markingdial an inking-roller J is rotatably mounted by means of lever-arms J at opposite sides of the head B4, which levers are mounted upon a pivot J2, extending inward from the sides of the head-casing A2, while the levers kare provided at their points of pivotal connection with slots J 5, shown by dotted lines in Fig. l and extending laterally of the levers J The ends of these levers beyond their pivotal points are connected to the head B4y by means of a pivot J4, which in the present illustration constitutes the axis of rotation for the indicating-dial C. This inkingroller is adapted to travel over the face of an ink-well J5, which is provided with a suitable aperture J for the escape ot ink therefrom, while below this well an apertured closing-plate J 7 is provided beneath the mark-l ing-dial through which the character of said dial is adapted to pass in the printing or marking operation. With the parts in the position shown in Fig. l it will be observed that as the head carrying the dials rises to its normal position under the tension of the spring F the end J4 of the inking-lever will be carried around and over the pivotal point J2 thereof, thus causing the inking-roller to travel below the character upon the markingdial which is in position for printing, thereby applying a fresh supply of ink for the next impression. This manner of mounting the inking-roller also provides a very quick action thereof, so that theI roller is given its full length of travel during a comparatively short movement of the centering-lever.
In the operation of the machine it Will be observed that the parts in Fig. l are in their ydepressed or printing position, whereby the material or goods to be marked is carried by the platen into contact with the marking-dial by a simultaneous movement of the dial and platen toward and from each other. When the tension upon the treadle or operating means is released, the spring will restore the parts to their raised position, and during such movement the dial is inked for a subsequent impression, as heretofore described. When the parts are in their raised position, if it be desired to change the printing characters upon the marking-dial the push-button controlling the locking-latch for the dial which is to be moved is depressed, thus releasing the dial and permitting its rotation until the desired character appears at the opening opposite the indicating-dial, when the pushbutton is released, thus permitting the latch to engage the indexing-gear upon the marking-dial and hold the same in its adjusted position for a subsequent marking operation. It will be seen that the construction of the dial mounted by the spring-pin upon the shaft permits the movement of any one of the dials with the shaft, while the remaining dials being locked will be held against such IIO rotation. The construction also permits the operator to always have 4in sight the igures which are to be used for marking the goods,
so that mistakes from misnumbering can be eectually avoided, while the simple and eco-` nomical construction of the parts effects the .most positive and eicient results in the marking operation and permits the use of the machine by persons not especially skilled in the operation of such machines.
It will be obvious that changes may be made in the details of construction and configuration without departing from the spirit j shaft carrying said dial for rotating the same, an indicatingdial operatively connected to rotate in unison with the printing-dial, a loc k` ing-latch` engaging said printing-dial to re#` tain it against rotation with its shaft, and means to release said latch.
