- the movable core 9 is pivoted to a lever 12 shown in Fi ⁇ g. 1- which in turn is pivoted at 13 in the bracket 14 which is secured to the bottom ange 4 of the solenoid spoolas shown in Fig. 6.
- This bracket is provided with a nut or other binding post. 15 adapted to be connected with a main linei conductor for the purpose of supplying current thereto for welding purposes.
- a spring clip 16 more clearly .shown in bottom' y view in Fig. 2.
- This clip is composed ofthe block of metal 17 having'a tongue 17 adapted to lit the s lot 18 in'the end of the lever 12.
- a screw 19 passes through theend of the lever and binds the cleft portion upon the tongue 17 securely uniting' them ltogether.
- the clip member 20 Upon theblock is also fixedly secured the clip member 20. This is stationaryand betweenit and the block is secured the spring 21 tending to separate the clips.
- the other clip member 22 is loosely secured tothe block by means ofthe wing nut 23 and screw 24 means of the pin 25' fixed to the block and loosely passing through a hole in the clip 27.
- the clip 22 is electrically connectedv to the lever 12.
- the bracket"14 is hollowedout as'indicated by the broken line 28 so that it will. contain the s ring shown 1in broken line 29, one end of w ich 1s secured to a fixed pin '80 and is held from getting out of'position by passing through the bracket and the other end of which is secured to the end of a screw 31 which passes loosely-through the aperture 32 and through the heel of the lever 12 .shown at, 33 and then through a. thumb nut the .spring tension to the lever is such' that as the spring is stretched and its -tension increased the point of application approaches a line drawn from the pivot 30 through .the fulcrum, thereby reduc- 1 ing the leverage effect of the spring upon 'the compensating lever..
- the spring 29 is so arranged as to dra-W the welding terminal means or pencil away from the Work.
- Thecore of the solenoid on vthe contrary is so arranged as to draw.
- welding terminal means or pencil toward the work are welding terminal means or pencil toward the work.
- the ,circuits are shown in Fig. 7.
- the main welding circuit may be traced from the Abinding post 36 by Way of the conductor 37 to the bracket 14 thence through the pivot'13 or connection 13a around the post to the lever.
- circuit or coil 7 of the solenoid is connected on one side tothe conductor and on the other side to a push button switch 41 normally open but adapted to be closed by the operators finger when he grasps the. cylinder 1, to establish a circuit through the .conductor 42 to a terminal means adapted to be connected temporarily to the work 38, Oras shown connected to the threaded member 43, which may be Vtemporarily ⁇ attached to the work 38, the purpose of suchv connecting means or terminal memberbeing to establish a shunt circuit to supply a current to the coil-7 of the Solenoid. This shunt is carried across the arc from one side of-thevcir cuit to the other.
- this switch is shown to be-composed of a clip 44 connected as shown in Fig. 4 to the flexible conductor 45 Whichhrin turn is con* nected to the terminal '43 asv shownk Fig. 7.
- this switch is composed of a clip or spring 46 block of insulating material 47 which is secured to the top of the solenoid and the circuit is led from this clip 46 in two directions, one to the solenoid as heretoforey described and the other by means of a conductor 48 to the contact 49 of the buzzer thence through the coil 50 ofthe buzzer and the conductor 51 to a spiral spring 52 carryingv at its to a contact 53 adapted to come into electrica connection with the core 9 and thereby'establisha connection with the bracket 14 and thus enable current to pass through the ybuzzer from the conductor 37 to the clip 46 in shunt of the coil 7 of the solenoid.
- This circuit and buzzer are for the pur ⁇ pose of informing theoperator that his tool has beenbrought too close to the work and there is not sufficient room for the necessary variations of the welding terminal means by means of the solenoid.
- the operator hears the signal or buzzer, he lifts his tool slightly so that the-contact 53 and the core 9 are separated and4 thereafter his welding goes on as before. of particular value iny thisyconnection since during the operation of welding the operator usually observes his arc through mounted upon thel An. audible signal is smoked glass which is so dark that he is unable to see much else.
- the contact v53 and the spring 52 are located upon a block of insulating material 54 which is sup-4 ported by posts 55 upon the bottom of the solenoid 4.
- the conductor 51 is shown in Figs. 1, 3 and 6. These figures show how the conductor is concealed between the outside of the solenoid coil vand within the cylindrical cover or handle 1.
- an audible signal is advisable, it should be understood that I do not restrict myself to an audible signal but thatthe signal may be of any kind suitable to give -warning to ⁇ the operator, and adapted and arranged to become operative bythe 40o near approach ⁇ of the tool to the work.

To all whom it may concern: l Be itv known that 1,. ERNST WoL'rMANN, citizen ofthe UnitedStates, and resident o' New York,.i`nv the county of' New York and 6 State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Operators Outfits for Electric Welding, of which the following is a 'cifcation The object o my invention is van opera- 10 tors outfit or hand tool by means ofwhich an inexperienced operator may repair or join metal ortions y means of an electric are and we ding terminal means adaptedto Ydeliver molten metal to the arc which in 16 turn carries it to the metal portion` to be welded or repaired so organized as. to cause the arc to'have a` tixed'voltage and amperage and therefore a fixed heat, to secure an even ow of' welding metal. 20 In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my hand l tool with a small portion broken away.

Fig. 9 is ak plan view of same on Fig. 8.
In my operators outfit, or hand tool I employ a handle 1 which may a hollow'cyl- 4o inder of metal with a chased or engraved surface to enable the hand to grasp it easily without slipping. Within the cylinder` 1 is secured a solenoid 2 shown in Figs- 5v and 6. The cylinder 1 is secured to the ends 3 and 5 4 of the vsolenoid magnet by means of screwsv 5 and 6. The 4solenoid is'provided with a winding covering a spool 8, hollow to form a dash-pot chamber 10 to receive the varmal ture o r core 9'of the solenoid which is adapt-- so ed vto reciprocate sluggishly within the chamber 10. -The 'core 9 is linked by means of the lug 9 to the pin 9" secured to a plunger 9 operating in the chamber 10, said plunger e plunger inthe chamber 10, or such seep 1n of air may be accomplished by such partlyin section of the' PAT-ENTFOiFICE.
and chamber forming a dash-pot, airbeing allowed to seep by the `plunger in slightA uantities because of intentional loose fit of ot er means appurtenant to the'plunger and chamber as may be adapted for this purpose, said plunger being of lcarbon orY graphite. This -renders the action of the corev sluggish and overcomes its tendency underthe spring 29 totremble or vibrate rapidly. The movable core 9 is pivoted to a lever 12 shown in Fi`g. 1- which in turn is pivoted at 13 in the bracket 14 which is secured to the bottom ange 4 of the solenoid spoolas shown in Fig. 6. This bracket is provided with a nut or other binding post. 15 adapted to be connected with a main linei conductor for the purpose of supplying current thereto for welding purposes. n
.Upon the end of the lever 12 is secured a spring clip 16 more clearly .shown in bottom' y view in Fig. 2. This clip is composed ofthe block of metal 17 having'a tongue 17 adapted to lit the s lot 18 in'the end of the lever 12. A screw 19 passes through theend of the lever and binds the cleft portion upon the tongue 17 securely uniting' them ltogether. Upon theblock is also fixedly secured the clip member 20. This is stationaryand betweenit and the block is secured the spring 21 tending to separate the clips. The other clip member 22 is loosely secured tothe block by means ofthe wing nut 23 and screw 24 means of the pin 25' fixed to the block and loosely passing through a hole in the clip 27. The clip 22is electrically connectedv to the lever 12. by suitable means, such as the flexible; stranded co per connection `13,'on e end secured under t e plate 13" fastened se- I .curely to the clip 2O and the other lend sol deredto the block 13 secured by screws to the bracket 14.
The bracket"14 is hollowedout as'indicated by the broken line 28 so that it will. contain the s ring shown 1in broken line 29, one end of w ich 1s secured to a fixed pin '80 and is held from getting out of'position by passing through the bracket and the other end of which is secured to the end of a screw 31 which passes loosely-through the aperture 32 and through the heel of the lever 12 .shown at, 33 and then through a. thumb nut the .spring tension to the lever is such' that as the spring is stretched and its -tension increased the point of application approaches a line drawn from the pivot 30 through .the fulcrum, thereby reduc- 1 ing the leverage effect of the spring upon 'the compensating lever.. Suitable proportions will result in such a balance between the reduction of the leverage and the increase of the tension. Thus thev tension of the spring 29 upon the lever is not materially varied by the maximum variation in position of the core` 9 of the solenoid. The core isi loosely fitted within the spool of the solenoid and the pivots 9al are loose to provide freedom of action for the core.
The spring 29 is so arranged as to dra-W the welding terminal means or pencil away from the Work. Thecore of the solenoid on vthe contrary is so arranged as to draw. the
welding terminal means or pencil toward the work.
The ,circuits are shown in Fig. 7. The main welding circuit may be traced from the Abinding post 36 by Way of the conductor 37 to the bracket 14 thence through the pivot'13 or connection 13a around the post to the lever.
12 and clip 22, and then through thewelding pencil 27 which is brought sufficiently close to the Workv 38 as to form an arc. The current then returns by way of the conductor 39 to the source Vof supply binding post 40. The
circuit or coil 7 of the solenoid is connected on one side tothe conductor and on the other side to a push button switch 41 normally open but adapted to be closed by the operators finger when he grasps the. cylinder 1, to establish a circuit through the .conductor 42 to a terminal means adapted to be connected temporarily to the work 38, Oras shown connected to the threaded member 43, which may be Vtemporarily` attached to the work 38, the purpose of suchv connecting means or terminal memberbeing to establish a shunt circuit to supply a current to the coil-7 of the Solenoid. This shunt is carried across the arc from one side of-thevcir cuit to the other.
It is open until the operator closes the switch41. This is a confA venient thing to do since it is located upon the tool itself as shownin Fig. 1`. rIn this figure this switch is shown to be-composed of a clip 44 connected as shown in Fig. 4 to the flexible conductor 45 Whichhrin turn is con* nected to the terminal '43 asv shownk Fig. 7. The other side of this switch is composed of a clip or spring 46 block of insulating material 47 which is secured to the top of the solenoid and the circuit is led from this clip 46 in two directions, one to the solenoid as heretoforey described and the other by means of a conductor 48 to the contact 49 of the buzzer thence through the coil 50 ofthe buzzer and the conductor 51 to a spiral spring 52 carryingv at its to a contact 53 adapted to come into electrica connection with the core 9 and thereby'establisha connection with the bracket 14 and thus enable current to pass through the ybuzzer from the conductor 37 to the clip 46 in shunt of the coil 7 of the solenoid. A
This circuit and buzzer are for the pur` pose of informing theoperator that his tool has beenbrought too close to the work and there is not sufficient room for the necessary variations of the welding terminal means by means of the solenoid. When the operator hears the signal or buzzer, he lifts his tool slightly so that the-contact 53 and the core 9 are separated and4 thereafter his welding goes on as before. of particular value iny thisyconnection since during the operation of welding the operator usually observes his arc through mounted upon thel An. audible signal is smoked glass which is so dark that he is unable to see much else. A signal which would be Yvisible Ordinarily wond be inf visible through the glass so that some other sort of signal is advisable to inform him when his tool is not held at the proper distance from the work. The contact v53 and the spring 52 are located upon a block of insulating material 54 which is sup-4 ported by posts 55 upon the bottom of the solenoid 4. The conductor 51 is shown in Figs. 1, 3 and 6. These figures show how the conductor is concealed between the outside of the solenoid coil vand within the cylindrical cover or handle 1. l
While, as has been stated, an audible signal is advisable, it should be understood that I do not restrict myself to an audible signal but thatthe signal may be of any kind suitable to give -warning to` the operator, and adapted and arranged to become operative bythe 40o near approach` of the tool to the work.
The flanges 3 and 4.of the solenoid are through which the wire 5l is adapted to passin order that it may be concealed within the cylindrical handle Upon the top of the solenoid is an insulating block 47 lprovided with slots or cut-out `portions 55 'shewn' in.- rig.. i.

In other respects, the construction` iswthew same ae'that in Fig. 1 and the constructionl vshown -in F' '.S the' 815061151"r iron flange 4. These aii'ges` l with the cut-outportions here'. f

In Fig. 8 the core 9g 'is shownincontact with the contact point 53, the lever being in the extreme position. lVhen the circuit of the solenoid is closed however, the core is instantly brought up to its proper posithe tension of the spring 29a. he operation of the construction in this figure 1s evident, the chief difference fromY other figures being lthat; the weldingv termi@ nal means or pencil moves ina straight line instead of in the arc of a circle.
In the'operation of wel ing, an operators hand is, as a rule unsteady and he'is unable to prevent variations in the lengthA of the are due to this unsteadiness.
and cutting,r down th 'current through the solenoid -coil which has the eff The various strengths of the coil and spring are so adjusted as to provide a suitable compensation for this tendency.
When, through the operators unsteadiness`,.the welding terminal means, or pencil,` tends toward shortening the arc, al
greater current starts tonow through the' i thelsolenoid pull so that the spring 29 pulls the Welding terminal means delivers a constant los or pencil-correspondingly away from the Work. v
These variations take place between suoli narrow limitsthat for practical purposes, the arc remains steady and uniform and flow of metall from the welding terminal means or pencil to the work thereby avoiding the porosity of the weld which otherwise might occur. `Having thusv described Amy inventlom shouldL be understood thaty there mayA modifications thereof be and variations therein is approximately the same.
