Application led March 30, 1908. Serial No. 308,982.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that We, CAMPBELL Scorr and ERNEST L. Gann, Sr., residing at. Yonkers. in the county of lestchester and State of New York, have invented a new and useul improvement in Automatic Attachments for ll'ithdraiving Punchings from Punching-Nadunes, of which the following is a specitication.
Oni' invention relatesto pick- Otis :for punching machines and one of its objects is the provision of simple and etiicicut inc-ans for withdrawing uuiicliings from punching A iiirt-lier object. of our invention is the provision of automatic electro-mechanical apparatus for removing the puiicliings from a punching machine.
Another object of 'the present invention is the provision of positive means for removing the pick-ott' from under the punch to preient said pick-oli' from beinff injured.
A iiitlicr object is to provide in combi nation with an automatic pick-ott device, a plurality of cutters to entirely sever the scrap from the material inserted when a punching is made.
Other ohjccts of our invention will appear hereinafter, the novel combination of elements being pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying` drawings Figure l represents in elevation. a punching machine represents a plan view of the die of the piincliinzgy machine. and also our improved attachment: Fig. 3 is a View similar to Fig.- 2 lmt showing the pick-oil' in another posimatic electric switch that may be used it' desired; Fig. G serres to illustrate one form of butter device that may be used as hereinafter explained: Fig. 7 represents a wiring Fig. S is an elevational View of a modification in that the operating device for thel pick-ott` is entirely mechanical; Fig. 9 i represents a plan view similar to Figs. 2 l and il but showing the mechanical construc- 'l tion of Fig. 8: und Figs. 10 and 1l are detailed views of the cutters that may be used l for separating the scrap entirely from the l material inserted each time a punching is! made.
Referring to. Fig. l, S designates .the standard or ,suppe-rt :it-the upper end of which is mounted the shaft, l to which is secured the pulley P. B designates a belt connecting some source of power with the nuliey P, which latter transmits the power to the shaft l, and to the mechanism operated thereby, for actuating the punch carrier Any suitable type of punching machine may be used, and such a machine is not, shown complete in the. drawings for the reason that. various kinds are Well known to thoseV skilled in the art.
6 designates a hed rier 4, the die D] being shown in Fig. 2. Obviously this die may he of any shape de sired and the punch made to correspond,
thereto. In this instancea circular die is shown with a central opening 5 so that the punching machine will produce laininations for an arii'iatiire of a dynainoelectric machine. Ain): suitahle means may he used for securinpY the dies in placel and makinp,ir them removable or adjustable.
IPivoted at 2 to the frame of the punching7 machine is the lever L, the upper arm of which is adapted to he struck by the cani C Secured to the shaft l. The lower end of the lever L carries an arm 29 which is provided with a slot Il() at its outer end. and through this slot projects a pin SG which is secured to the outer end of the lever 2S. Connected to the same pin is a link 3:2 slotted at 3l so as to have some lost motion at certain times. The liiil; 32 is pivoted at to the arm l0 carrying thc pick-ott device Si' at its outer xend. The pick-eti dciice in this instance comprises an electro-magnet l5 provided with comparatively long poles lt". 16, which are adapted to pick up the'punching and scrap l) and 48. respectively, when the magg net is energized.
`when the punching machine is operated and tne shaft l makes a complete revolution, the cam C strikes the lever L and moves the arin Q9 to the left. For a certain period of time there is a free motion of said arin 29 by reason of the slot 30 in the outer end thereof. lfhen, however. the outer end of the slot is reached, pin SG is struck and arin 28 of thc electric switch Qn' moved to the left. This has the effect ri'energizing the electro-magnet E,ivhich thereupon draws im; y
wartllv its core 'I ainl mores to the right on the arni '2S h v means nf the. spring 45. the link S which is pivotetl ai St to the pirltx 'l`o prevent the arni '2H from :wing thrown ol alin l0. The a in lt) will thereupon he moved to the position intlitatetl in l"i 3. but. n-Lile loing zo the lint- 2J. whit'h is pivotetl at '22. will he actuan-l niitil the enti of its Slot :lil is reached. when the swim-h :5 will be operated. The operation of the latter switch will' etfeet the energization of the pit'lotl' magnet Si'.

The electric Switch as shown in Figs. l
.aint i. may be varieil as desired andthe liarticalar form here illustrated is inert'lj.' wt forth to lallow soine inean.` for aci-oinplishing the objects of our invention. ln hi-- instan( a cabing 4t) has pirated ivithiii it. tiro levers. .38 anti 3T. at 34 ainl 35. re- Spefrtiveiy. The.arin :2S eiteinla out iront one end of the easing. anti has a pin-aiutslot connection with the linlis 2H aini 3;'.

- In the modification illustrated in Fig :in anti-friction roller C is mountednearthe periphery of the :1111111lus ft2 which is keyed ,L to the sha'tt l. This roller C is arranged toY i strike against. the lever L which is pii'oted :it 2 to the. traine of the punching machine. A spring 755 aets on the arm 7l of the lei-er L to more the hitter against the .stop 7' To the extreme lower end of the arm '7l is piioted at 75. a latch arm S3 whit-ii is pri:- videil with a hooi; at its outer end, und n cani 71' at an intermediate portion. Th" van: is adapted tc, ride up on the roller 715 which is mounted on the frame. of the punching inzit-bine. 'The vertical portion 79 o1 the f' hooi: -sl is arranged to engage the upward projection .S of the pick-ott arin 1U and 'fiore the lutter to its inner position when the :haii makes n complete revolution. ln this event, after the arm l0' has been actu` ated and given sutlieient momentum to carry it to its innermost position, the en. 7 '1' will rido up on the roller 76 to free die hook 84 g from the projection or lug 80. The spring l 12 may then act as before to return the arm 10 to itsoriginnl position. Force exeitt on the :1i-n1 10 onlgy7 during about one quarter o* the revolution of the shaft l' l when the roller C' starts from a position corresponding to that shown in lt is obvious. however. that tho roller C' will be moved only a pre-determined distance when the hook 14 will he released by reason of the 1:11111 7T ridincr 11p on the roller 76; and when 5 tile roller again moves away from the lever L the spring 73 acts on the arm 74 to i return the lateh-arin 83 to its original position. la the event that the :zrin l0' reaches its original position before thel latch-arm S3 reaches its normal position. the face 7S of the hook -f will slide over the projection HU g and the latch-arm S3 will full into the position-inxlii-ated in Fig. 8.

The operation of the nieohaniesll device .shown in Fig. 8 is substantiall;v similar to the operation of the construction` town in Fig. 1. ln both cases the cutters ott, 5G, illustrated in detail in Figs. 1() and 11, should be usr-tl. or some other cutter which will have the saine effect. The positive cjecting device should be used in an)7 case for the salie of safet) so that in no event can the punch injure any of the parts b v reason of the piclc-oti electro-magnet getting caught between the punch aud the die.
It will now he apparent that we have constructed a simple and etlicient device for ithdrawing punchings from punching niachiner; such as is absolutely safe, in Ithat it does not require the inertion of the-workman`s hands under the punch to take out the punchings and scrap. rlhis has often been the source of serious injuries for the reason that the punch might come down while it was being endeavored to remove the punchings and scrap. It should also be noted that a positive ejecting device has been provided to n'event the punching machine or the attacinucnt thereto from being injured. But we do not desire to be limited to the exact construction of detail and arrangement of parts herein disclosed. as various` moditications may be made by those skilled in the art without departing` from the spirit and scope of our invention.
