GEORGE SCHUBERT, OF WALNUT, TEXAS.
BALIN G- PRESS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 502,833, dated August 8,1893.
Application filed November 14,1892. Serial No. 451,902. (No model.)To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE SCHUBERT, a
citizen of the United States, residing at Wal-
nut, in the county of Bosque and State of
5 Texas, have invented certain new and useful
Improvements in Baling-Presses; and I do
hereby declare the following to be a full, clear,
and exact description of the invention, such as
will enable others skilled in the art to which it
ro appertains to make and use the same, refer-
ence being had to the accompanying draw-
ings, forming part of this specification, in
which-
Figure 1 is a plan view of a baling press,
15 and Fig. 2 is a side elevation of same.
This invention relates to improvements in
baling presses, of a kind known as a quarter
circular press; and the objects of my improve-
ments are, to form a catching and tripping
20 mechanism simple in construction and low of
production: and second, to retain the plun-
ger-bar within its proper limits to again come
in proper position on the other catch or set-
block after being tripped, independent of any
25 vertical or horizontal guides as hereinafter
fully described.
Referring to the drawings: A, A, are the
frame-bands, secured in position by the cross-
frames e, e. The bars A, A, are extended, to
30 receive near their ends the bolster plates J, J,
and to receive the usual king-bolt a. On said
king-bolt a is pivoted the operating lever B.
C designates the plunger-bar, and G is the
plunger.
35 H areguides secured to the plunger G. The
plunger-bar C is pivotally secured to the plun-
ger G by a suitable staple a'. The opposite
end of the plunger-bar C is preferably finished
with a square iron d.
40 h designates a bar constructed of links piv-
oted to each other as shown. Said bar is piv-
oted with one end to the front edge of the up-
per bolster plate J, and with its other end to
the end of the plunger-bar C to hold the free
45 end of the plunger bar C within the proper
limits to come in the proper position with the
catch blocks hereinafter described.
g, g, are small blocks secured to the front
side of the lever B, a proper distance apart
50o and equal distance from the king-bolt a.
f, f, are tripping blocks secured to the front
side of the lever B a short distance beyond
the set-blocks g, g.
k designates an upright secured to one of
55 the frame bars A, A.K is an idler journaled on near the upper
end of the upright 7k.
i is a cord secured with one end to the plun-
ger-bar C near the plunger G, and extending
over the idler K and having to its other end 60o
attached a weight b.
j, j, are cross bars placed a proper distance
from the bolster plates J, J, toward the press.
Said cross bars are of proper size to strengthen
the frame bars A, and can also answer as a 65
guide for the plunger bar C when so desired.
The operations may be summarized as fol-
lows viz: Thelever Bisshifted from the posi-
tion as seen in full lines to one of the position as
seen in dotted lines, when the trip-blockf will 7c
shift the bar C off the set-block g, the plun-
ger G being forced back by the rebound of the
pressed material and also drawn back by the
weight b, which will cause the plunger bar C
to shift along the lever B to the other set- 75
block g in the position as seen in dotted lines,
also drawing the plunger G to the position as
seen in dotted lines, when the feeding cham-
ber is refilled, and the lever B moved to op-
posite position as seen in dotted lines thus 8o
moving up the plunger and compressing the
material, and the trip-block f again tripping
the plunger bar C, which will now move to the
opposite side of the press as seen in dotted
lines. The feeding chamber is again refilled 85
and the operation of the lever B repeated,
making one compression at each move of the
lever B.
Having thus described my invention, what
I claim is- 90
1. In a baling press, the combination with
a lever B having the set-blocks g, g, and the
tripping blocks f,f, in connection with a plun-
ger-bar C and a rebounding plunger, as and
for the purpose described. 95
2. In a baling press, the combination with
a lever B having the set-blocks g, g, and the
tripping blocks f, f, in connection with a re-
bounding plunger and plunger-bar the free
end of said plunger-bar C anchored to the coo
frame of the press, by a linked-strap h o, its
equivalent as and for the purpose described.
In testimony whereof I have affixed my sig-
nature in presence.of two witnesses.
GEORGE SCHUBERT.
