@anni @time CHARLES BAER, OF NEW YORK, NQ Y., ASSIGNOR TO HIMSELF AND PHILIP HEINRICIIS, OF vSAME PLACE.
Letters Patent No. 86,968, (lated Febwm/ry 16, 1869.
I1\|.']?RO'V'EIIVIENT TYPE-BREAKERS.
The Schedule referred to in these-Letters-Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, CHARLES BAER, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and improved Type-Breaker; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled'in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, formin'gpart of this specication, in which- Figure l represents a plan or top proved type-breaker. i A
Figures 2'and 3 are similar views of the same, showing the parts in diierent positions.
Figure 4 is a vertical transverse section ofthe same,
view of my imthe plane of section being indicated by the line x rv,-
Figure 5 is a longitudinal vertical section of the same, the planeof section being indicated by the line y y, iig. 3.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
This invention relates to a newr machine for breaking the jets o the bodies of types, and is intended as an attachment to a type-casting machine.
The invention consists in such an arrangement and combination of two movable clamping-tools, with a sta tionary abutment and feed and discharge-channels, that the type, as it is discharged from the casting-machine, is fed face forward between the clamping-tool, the jet projecting from the same, and the tools. are then moved to one side, so that the jet may strike against a stationary abutment, whereby it will be detached from the type, when it will drop into a channel, which conveys it to a suitable receptacle,
The type is carried further by the clamps, and is then discharged into a channel, which carries it to a separate receptacle. .j
The apparatus can he iitted for types of various length.
A, in the drawing, represents the frame of my improveli type-breaking machine. The same is made of wood, metal, or other suitable material, of suitable form and dimensions. v
B represents a horizontal axle, having its bearings in the frame A, and'receiving rotary motion from suitable mechanism.
On the shaft Bis mounted a cam, C, havingtwo cam-grooves, c and b, as shown clearly invgs. 2, 3, and 4.
To the frame A, in front of the shaft B, are pivoted two levers D and E, which are at their upper ends provided with plates, c (l, respectively, which act as jaws for clamping the type.
On each lever D E is a pin, f, which fits into one of the grooves of the cam C, so vthat thus the lever D c is connected with the groove a., while the lever E d is connected with the groove b, as is clearly shown in iig. 4.
' A spring, e, on a lower arm of'the lever D, has a constant tendency to force the plate c against the plate d.
F is a metal or other inclined trough, into which the types are discharged from the type-casting machine.
This trough is fastened to the frame A, above the jaws c d, andinclines downward,`towards the front of the machine, as wellas towards that side to which the type is ejected from the casting-machine.
The type falls, on this lower side, against a ledge, y,
v strikes against alwooden or other block, G, which can be adj usted by means of a set-screw, h, or otherwise, so as to arrest the type sooner or later.
Through a slot in the' plate F, the type falls down upon a stationary plate, i, that projects from the frame A, and between the two jaws c d, which are then in position, shown in g. 1, ready to receive the type.
Iheblock Gr should be so adjusted thatthe jet of the type will project from the jaws c d, and will not be held in the same, as indicated in iig. 5,while the type is iirmly held between the jaws.
The block G, therefore, is adjustable, to adapt the machine to longer and shorter type.
XVhen the type is thus clamped between the jaws, the latter will, by the action of. the revolving cam, be both moved to one side, so as to carry thetype along with them.
During this motion, the type-jet will strike against a stationary abutment, j, which is fitted upon he plate i, and by which the jet is broken oi' the type body, as the latter is carried in the direction of the/ arrow in ii 2.
gThe jet, thus separated from the type-body, falls into a trough, I, prepared for its reception, (see g. 4,) while the type is carried still further by the jaws, until it is above a slot in the plate i, and over a trough, J,
as in iig. 3. Then the jaws are separated, by the shape of the cam-grooves a b, and release the type, which falls into the trough J, as indicated in tig. 3. The
jaws are then, by the action of the cam, brought back ytoptheir original position, which is indicated in iig. 1,
ready to receive another type.
The spring e serves to hold the jaws together,I so that they may well hold the type.
The jaw d is so long that it closes the whole slot in the trough F, as long as the jaws are moving to break and discharge the type.
yHaving thus described my invention,
VhatI vclaim as new, and desire to secure by Let- ;ers Patent, is-
1. Atype-breaking machine, consistingofthe trough E, and when operated, by means of grooves a b, in the F, movable jaws 0d, block G, and abutment j,all made cam C, and by a spring f, all made and operating suband operating substantially as herein shown and destantially as herein shown and described. scribed CHARLES BAER.
2. The above in combination with the troughs I and J, arranged as described, for the purpose of separating Wl'UeSsS the broken-ojets from Jhe types, as specified. WM. F. MONAMARA, 3. The jaws c d, when attached to pivoted levers D ALEX. F. ROBERTS.
