Application filed December 5, 1904, Serial No. 235,604. Renewed August 10, 1907.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, RUFUs E. SMITH, of Syracuse, in the county of Onondaga and State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Machine for Filling Conceals, of which the following is a specification.
My invention has for its object the production of a machine for filling conceals which is particularly simple in construction and efficient in operation; and to this end, it
. consists in the combinations and constructions hereinafter set forth and claimed.
In describing-this invention, reference is had to the accompanying drawing in which like characters designate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a side elevation, partly in section, of a portion of a machine for filling conceals, including one embodiment of my invention. Fig. 2 is a top lan of a portion of the mechanism seen in *ig. 1. Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional view on line AA, Fig. 1. Fig. A is a detail sectional view of the exit-end of one of the guides for the conceals, and contiguous parts, a number of the unfilled conceals being shown in position in said guide. Fig. 5 is a transverse sectional view on line BB, Fig. 1, an unfilled conceal being illustrated in the predetermined position in the guide. Fig. 6 is a plan, partly in section, of a portion of the receiving means for the unfilled conceals. Fig. 7 is a sectional view, partly in elevation, taken on line CC, Fig. 6. Fig. 8 is an enlarged plan of the means shown in Fig. 4.
1 are revoluble receptacles for the unfilled conceals, these receptacles being preferably arranged in an inclined plane and revoluble about an inclined axis, and having the lowermost portions of their bottoms and sides diverging from a perpendicular line passing through the juncture of said lowermost portions. The receptacles 1 may be revolved by any suitable means, here illustrated as pulleys 2 fixed to their bottoms and engaged by a driving belt 3.
4 are substantially radial ribs fixed to the inner faces of the bottoms of the receptacles 1 and having their inner ends terminating at points separated from the axes of the re ceptacles.
5 are feeding members having their axes substantially coincident with the axes of the receptacles 1, and being thus disposed in Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 29, 1910.
Serial No. 387,954.
planes inclining upwardly from the central portions of the bottoms of the receptacles 1. The lower ends of the feeding members 5 are suitably fixed to spindles 6 which are provided with pulleys 7 driven by the belt 3 in a direction opposite to that in which the receptacles 1 revolve. The upper ends of the feeding members 5 preferably project beyond the receptacles l and discharge the unfilled conceals into the upper ends of guides 8 of any desirable construction. In the illustrated embodiment of my invention, the feeding members 5 are each formed of a spirally bent piece of wire, and directly beneath said feeding members are guides or troughs 9 which support the unfilled conceals in their movement by the members 5.
As the receptacles 1 revolve, the ribs 4: on the bottoms thereof pass through the mass of unfilled conceals and elevate a number thereof from below the contiguous portions of the feeding members 5 to a point above said contiguous portions, whereupon the conceals are fed by gravity to the upper sides of said portions of the feeding members and are then engaged thereby and fed one by one, or separately, to the guides 8. As the ribs A are comparatively narrow in width, the conceals, not arranged in the predetermined position, tend to fall therefrom, so that but a small proportion of the con ceals fed to the members 5 are not in the predetermined position.
The guides 8 are preferably provided with openings 10 for the passage from said guides of the conceals supplied thereto, and not in the predetermined position. At opposite sides of these openings 10 are engaging pieces 11 provided with diverging faces 12, 13, the faces 12 being substantially equidistant at all points from the opposing inner surfaces of the guides 8, and the faces 13 diverging outwardly from said inner faces through the openings 10. Then an unfilled conceal, arranged in the predetermined position, approaches the opening 10 of one of the guides 8, the'flange on said conceal is engaged by the faces 12 of the engaging pieces 11 at opposite sides of said opening, so that the conceal is supported in its movement across and beyond the opening 10. On the contrary, if a conceal, not in the predetermined position, approaches said opening 10, its flange engages the faces 13 which cause the conceal to pass outwardly through this opening.
Suitable supports 14 are here illustrated as arranged beneath the engaging pieces 11 for receiving the unfilled conceals discharged through the openings 10, and as clearly seen in Fig. 1, said supports extend downwardly to the interiors of the receptacles 1 for conducting to said receptacles the conceals dis-' charged through the openings 10.
The exit or lower ends of the guides 8 conduct unfilled conceals to sockets 15, 16 provided in a suitable receiving means, as a carrier or belt, movable beneath the exit or lower ends of said guides 8 in a plane at substantially right-angles to the path of movement of the conceals when discharged from said guides, these sockets 15, 16 being preferably arranged in pairs one in advance of the other. The exit ends of the guides 8 are provided with spring stops 17, which engage the lowermost conceals 18, as seen in Fig. 4, and temporarily prevent the escape thereof from said guides.
The conceals are discharged from the guides 8 against the action of the spring stops 17 to the receiving means provided with the sockets 15, 16 by any suitable means, which preferably forces two conceals simultaneously to the opposing sockets 15, 16. In the illustrated embodiment of my invention, this discharging means consists of a reciprocating member 19 and feeding fingers 20, 21 having their upper ends hinged to the member 19 and their lower ends movable into the conceals 18, the fingers 20 entering the advance or lowermost conceals and the fingers 21 entering the conceals next above said lowermost conceals. It will be understood that the fingers 20, 21 may be dispensed with, and any other desirable means utilized for positively feeding the conceals from the guides 8.
My machine is preferably provided with a presser-foot 22, which forces the conceals firmly into the sockets 15, 16 and remains depressed in engagement with said conceals until after the commencement of the return movement of the feeding fingers 20, 21. The presser-foot is usually provided with slots 23 which receive the feeding fingers 20, 21. It will be understood that the receiving means provided with the sockets 15, 16, the feeding fingers 20, 21 and the presserfoot 22 may be actuated by any desirable means, unnecessary to herein illustrate and describe.
The construction and operation of my machine for filling conceals, will now be read ily understood upon reference to the foregoing description and the accompanying drawing, and it will be noted by those skilled in the art that more or less change may be made in the component parts thereof without departing from the spirit of my invention.
