BRANDlNG-MACHINE.
' Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed March 27, 1905. Renewed April 20, 1906. Serial No.
katented July 24, 1906.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, AUGUST KIEFFER and HENRY REBSAMEN, citizens of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Brandingwhich the branding of such articles may be accomplished with facility and expedition.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a view in elevation, partly broken, showing the machine of ourinvention with a barrel in position thereon to' be branded. Fig. 2 is a plan view in the nature of a diagram of the rotatable table, showing the hol-j low column for supporting the brandinghead in section. Fig. 3 is a plan view-of the base, showing the column in section. Fig. 4 is an enlarged view of the branding-head in vertical sectional elevation, and Fig. 5 a broken section taken at the line 5 on Fig. 2 viewed in the direction of the arrow and enlarged. Y
A denotes the base of the machine, shown in its preferred form of a series of horizontal against a spring a. A hollow column B,
mounted at its lower end in the base center A, extends through the center of a rotatable table or platformC, resting upon the rollers a to adapt the table to be rotated about the column. The upper surface of the table 0 is provided with grooves c, radiating from its center and dis osed'successively at right angles to each ot er.
D D are bars confined in the grooves to slide longitudinally therein, each being provided with a longitudinal slot (1, through which a screw 0 passes into the table to se cure the sliding bar in any osition in its groove to which it may be a justed for the purpose hereinafter explained. Each bar D carries near its inner end a stop D for centering the package to be branded relative to a branding-head G, hereinafter described, the
'stop shown being a flanged bar bent to form a head d, with arms (1 diverging from its ends to adapt it especially for use with a barrel type of package. Along one side of each groove 0 is provided a scale marked at intervals i, and 1 'to indicate the points with which the outer ends of the sliding bars should register for effecting the proper positioning of packages of different sizes with relation to the suspended branding-head, these particular indications being intended to denote beer-barrels in the respective sizes of eighths, quarters, halves, and wholes, which different sizes are indicated in dotted lines.
Notches c are formed in the flange 0 de pending about the edge of the table C-one below each groove cinto any one of which notches the lug a on the lever a may extend 'to hold the table in one of four positions at which it is required to be arrested for the branding operations.
A hollow arm E extends over the table from the upper end of the column B and has journaled in it a pulley 6 near one end and near its op osite end a pulley e. The branding-head is suspended from the arm E by a flexible-medium, such as a cable 3', passing over the pulleys e 6 down through the column, wherein it carries a weight G. for counterbalancing the branding-head and sustaining it at any position to which it may be raised or lowered relative to a package to be branded supported beneath it on the table 0 and shown, by way of example, as a barrel H.
While the branding-head may be operated by any suitable power applied in any desired manner, we show as the means for operating it a hand-lever F, fulcrumed atone end on a split sleeve f, surrounding the column B and adjustable thereon to raise and lower it, 'means being provided in the form of a bolt f passing through lugs f 3 on the sleeve for clamping it in place. The lever carries between its ends'the branding-head G and is provided on its outer end with a handle extension F for operating it.
The branding-head which we prefer to use as being most desirable, though we do not limit our invention to the use thereof, is that which we have especially devised for our purpose, comprising the following-described construction: .The head is a hollow body shown of general bell shape, being formed of a neck-section is, forming a gas-chamber g a downward-through the chamber g, irr=the 1 lower part of which it' is; provided withi branches h, entering the top" of the chamber. g? through the cover 9 On the bottom of the chamber is supported the branding-plate G carrying the legend (indicated at o) to-be burnedinto=paclragesto: be brandedl- A valved air-supply pipe Z is suitably. coupled with the air+pi-pe it above the: branding-head andis connected flexibly, asby TIIbbGIzhOSG! Z, witha source (not shiown') of\air =un'der pressure; and a valved Igasepipe m, connected by rubber hose m with the gas+su-p- (not shown) is connected with the neck: it to--discharge into the chamber g';
By the described construction ofbra-nding: head G the com ressed air whizchr is conduct-- ed by the pipe and its branches-h into the. chain-berg passes-forciblytherefrom through the j et-openings g into the chamber 9* with the effect ofdrawing into the latter gas fI'On'll the chamberg through the pipes g and :the fuel composed of the air! and gas mixture in the combustion chamberq is burned in the:
products ofcornbustion escapingattheventopenings 9?, provided for thc purpose Itds within our 'invention, however; to employa branding-head heated otherwise than by gas. The operation of the machine. is as follows The centering-stops D" beingvadjusted in the I proper position for positioning the. particular size orsizes :of packages to be branded by causing the outer ends of the sliding bars-D to register with the roperlindicationsonthe* scales at-thesides-o the grooves c, the pack-- ages are placed Lon the rotatabletable-C and l centered thereon againstithe stops. The table is then rotated until the lug a on the lever a registers with one of the-notches 0 with which it engages to hold the table-in theydesired position, the center of the package to be brandedxbeingthus brought-to a position im- I mediately below that of the branding-head G.
Thereuponthe lever-F is adjusted-onltlie col-- umn B at its sleeve f to lower the head. G
upon the upper surface of the acka eto be branded, when. the head is f d b Vertical. f gas-tubes 7..-
sionof the head 'ad'aptsit; through the: medibran'ded', .a -column rising from said support,
ble against rotation: at,
rcedi against the package toburn therein the brand on r the plate G by depressing. the operatingelever 1 F. The branding operation havin been completed, thehead: israiiscd by the Tever F to permit the table C to be rotated on releasing'it from the lug a one-quarter of a revolution to' bring into proper position under the branding-head another packageto beimarked in the manner already described.' As a package is-branded 'it'is removed from the table and replaced by another to be branded in its turn. Thus-the'operation of the machine is rendered continuous-.-
Aswill be understood; the sleeve f may be set in any raised or lowered) osi-t'i'on 1 to fix the normal position of the randing h'ead relative to: any one size: of package, thereby to set the" machine for branding a plurality of packages of that size in succession, and from that set position the counterbalanced suspenum of theoperating lever, to be rais'ed out of the wayafter branding a package and to be forced againstithe-next pack age to b'e brand ed i brought underneath? it: by rotating the table";
What we claim as new; and desireto secure by Letters Patent; is
1. Abrandingmachinecorn prising, in cornbination,v asupport for the: package to be an armextending from said column; abrandings-head suspended from said arm; a sleeve mounted on' :said column and verti'cally 'adjustatble: thereon, and Barr vopcrating-lever-fulcrumed on. said sleeveeand connected 2 with v 5 said Ahead. latter to -heatit:and the-plate G the waste.
2 A branding-machineacomprising, in combination, a base, a table for packages-tor-be branded rotatably mounted on said base and provided with radial 5' grooves pac'lrage cen- 1 0o tering; devices adjustabl-y mounted in 2 said grooves, means for'releasablyv holding the taredetermined posi tionsy and a: branding-head movahl-y suspended above'said table to be raised and low- 1o 5 ered relative to theipackages: thereon:
