Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 9, 1910.
Application fiIed May 14, 1908, Serial No. 432,890. Renewed July 1, 1910. `Serial No. 569,987.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, FREDERICK BARNETT and FREDERICK I. BAYLns, citizens of the United States, residing at` Trinidad, in the county of Las Animas and State of Golorado, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Machines for Leveling Coal or the Like, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to a novel machine or apparatus for leveling coal and the like, the saine being adapted to be mounted for bodily movement along a track arranged in front of a series of coke ovens or the like.
The primary object of the invention is tol provide an apparatus which, 'while comparatively simple in construction and operation is adaptable to all the work necessary for the leveling of material uniformly within the oven. To this end, a machine is provided whereby the ramV or operating tool support may sweep over all the parts of the oven necessary for leveling without requiring any movement of the truck after the same has been once placed in position relative to the oven door.
More particularly the invent-ion includes a truck mounted for movement on a track or guideway arranged adjacent the ovens, a transversely movable platform carried on the truck by a vertically adjustable connection, a turn table on the platform, together with a ram so mounted on the turn table that it is capable of a longitudinal movement and also a swinging movement in a vertical plane.
The invention also contemplates a novel arrangement of motors transmission gearing and controlling devices for the several parts, whereby greater efficiency is secured, and whereby each of the parts may be readily operated by one man.
Other important features of the invention, including novel details of construction and arrangement of parts willbe more particularly brought out hereinafter in the detailed description.
For a clear understanding of the invention, attention is called to the accompanying drawings which constitute a part hereof and wherein a preferable embodiment of the invention is disclosed for the purpose of illustration.
Figure l vof the drawingsfis an end elevation of the apparatus complete showing the parts in operative position relative to an oven, which latter 1s shown 1n section. Fig.
lof bee-hive oven 2 having a door or opening 3, through which is adapted to be pro- `jected the leveling or other tool to be described hereinafter.
4 is a main support in the form of a truck `mounted, upon the `guideway 1, for travel through the medium of the wheels 5. This truck may be of any ordinary construction lpreferably rectangular and adjacent one end thereof is a motor 6 having a drive pinion 7 meshing with` a gear wheel 8 and arranged `to drive a shaft 9 upon which is fixed a double-face clutch member 10.
l1 is an auxiliary shaft having at one end a clutch face l2 arranged complementary to one face of the double face clutch 10 and having at its opposite end a pinion 13 meshmg with a gear wheel 14 at one end of a Vshaft 15,` which shaft l5 has a worm gear connection 16 with the drive shaft 17 of the truck. 1S is another auxiliary shaft having a clutch face arranged to engage the other face of the double face clutch 10 and carryiing a pinion 19 meshing with a gear wheel `2O carried at one end of a shaft 2l extending longitudinally of the truck to a point substantially midway of the same and having a worm connection with a worm gear 22.
` The gear 22 is carried by la shaft 22 extending transversely of the truck which latter lhas at its opposite end a pinion'23 arranged to mesh with an inclined rack 24 extending downwardly from an auxiliary support or buggy 25. Complementary guides 2G, 26a
are carried respectively by the auxiliary truck or buggy and the main truck.
From the description thus far, it will be notedthat the'motor 6 is adapted, according lto the position of the clutch 10, to operate either the drive shaft of the truck, or the rack pinion 23, whereby the auxiliary support or buggy is raised or lowered; the `clutch 10 being shown in the drawings at a` point intermediate and out of operative connection with the clutch faces 12 and 18.
AAny suitable connection may be employed `for operating the clutch member 10, that shown consisting of a clutch bar 27, clutch lever 28 and operating lever 29 mounted upon a lever shaft 30, connected at its opposite end with the lever bar 27. Mounted on said auxiliary support or buggy 25 and extending transversely of the truck for movement over and beyond the side of the same are I-beams 31, connected to constitute a platform. Extending downwardly from the I-beams are racks 31', driven through the medium of rack pinions 32 mounted upon a shaft 33 which latter carries at one end a gear wheel 34'meshing with a pinion 35 at one end of the shaft 36 carrying at its free end a hand wheel 37.
Superimposed on the plat-form comprising the I-beams 31 is a turn table base 38 upon which is mounted a turn table 39 of ordinary construction. Upon the periphery of the turn table is arranged a quadrant gear 40, in mesh with which is a worm 41 upon a shaft carrying a gear wheel 42 arranged to mesh with a pinion 43 upon one end of a shaft 44 carrying a gear 45 arranged to be driven by a pinion 46 directly driven by a motor 47.
48 is a ram, shown in the drawings as projecting through the oven door or opening and carrying a rack 49, adapted to be operated to impart longitudinal movement to the ram by a worm gear pinion 50 driven by a worm 51 and a motor 52. The ram support comprises a rocker frame 53 mounted on trunnions 55 in suitable bearings 56 on the turn table 39. The reciprocating motion of the ram 48 through the medium of the rack 49 and motor driven pinion 50 is guided by the antifriction bearings 57 engaging the irl upper and lower surface of the ram. In o1 lder to impart a vertical swinging movement to the ram, a quadrant gear 58 projects downwardly from the rocker frame 53 and arranged to mesh therewith' isavquadrant worm 59 adapted to be rotated by the hand wheel 60 through the medium of a knuckle jointed shaft 61.
62 is a suitable pushing head mounted intermediate upon the end of the ram 48 and having at its respective ends roller guides 63. The pusher head is preferably curved throughout.
Y While it is within4 the contemplation of applicants invention to` provide any shape or form of tool at the end of the ram 48, they have shown for the purpose of illustration a leveling device 64, which is detachably mounted in any desired manner as by threaded bolts to the ram, so that when it is desired this particular form of leveler may be removed and another substituted, or a discharging and pulling device of any of the usual forms applied in place of the leveling plate, it being noted in this connection that the invention is equally susceptible `for use as a means for extracting or pulling the coke from the coke oven, as any and all means necessary to this end are elnployed above in connection with the leveling apparatus.
Suitable brace bars G5 extend from opposite ends of the pusher plate G2 and connection with the ram bar.
All of the motors 6, 47 and 52, are preferably electric, and in order that they may be operated and controlled by one man, we provide a suitable platform (36, at one side of the truck 4, upon which are mounted controlling levers G 47 a, and 52, having any suitable connection with the motors 6, 47 and 52 respectively, the said connections not being shown for the purpose of clearness, but being adapted, as is usual, to start, stop or reverse the operation of the motors. lt is noted that not only these controlling levers, but every other lever necessary to give the apparatus the desired movements is arranged at a point at the side of the truck opposite the oven and intermediate the ends of the truck, whereby the operator can stand adjacent all of said controlling devices, and at the same time command a view of the interior of the oven through its door or opening.
The operation of the several parts may now be set forth.
The clutch lever 29 having been moved to couple the clutch members 10 and 12, power from the motor 6 is directly communicated to the drive shaft of the truck 4, whereby the latter is moved along the track 1 to a point opposite the oven opening. It sometimes happens that the several oven doors are not in alinement and it being desirable for the best results to have the several parts positioned at a point relative to the oven opening to take care of any possible difference in the amount of coal to be leveled, means are provided for imparting a slight vertical movement to the parts mounted upon the truck. To secure this operation the clutch lever 29 will be moved to couple the clutch members 10 and 18 together, thereby imparting, through the motor 6 movement to the auxiliary support or buggy 25, which may be raised or lowered as the case may be, and carry with it the platform 31 and the parts mounted thereon. Movement is thereupon imparted to said platform 31 transversely of the truck and substantially centrally of the latter, thereby bringing the center of the horizontal and vertical movement of the ram to a point close to the oven door. The following movements may now be imparted to the ram; firsta horizontally swinging movement through the medium of the turn table 39 driven by the motor 47 second, a rocking movement in a vertical plane imparted by the hand wheel 18 and coperating quadrant gear 58 carried by the rocking support for the ram; third, a
longitudinal movement governed by the motor 52 and coperatedpinion connection with the rack 49 on the ram. In this way the ram may sweep all of the parts `of the oven necessary for leveling without requiring a movementof the truck, after the same has been positioned at the oven door.
