APPLIANCE FOR GLASS-FLATTING OVENS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 421,152, dated February 11, 1890.
Application filed May 14, 1889. Serial No. 310,753. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, THEODOR ARREN ZEL- LERS, of Ottawa, in the county of Ira Salle and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Appliances for Glass-Flatting Ovens; and Ido hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to devices employed in the manufacture of sheet or window glass, and more especially to certain improved devices for inserting and depositing in the [latting-oven the glass rollers or cylinders from which the fiat sheets are made, after the same have been cracked or split longitudinally.
I-Ieretofore in the manufacture of windowglass, wherein longitudinally cracked or split rollers or cylinders of glass are flattened out to form a sheet after being heated in a fiatting-oven, various forms of devices have been employed to aid in the manipulation of said rollers during their, insertion into said oven. The device most commonly used consists of a manually-operated fork, upon the prongs of which the cylinders are supported, and which is arranged adjacent to the door of the oven, and swung from a crane or other similar support, whereby the rollers have been sustained while being inserted and deposited in the oven. This device is found objectionable, first, from the fact that, owing to the flexibility of the glass roller after being longitudinally split, the separated edges thereof are liable to overlap each other if the cylinder is slightly jarred, so that when the rolleris insorted in the oven the cylinder will be heated unequally, (by reason of the greater thickness of the overlapped portion,) whereby the cylinder is liable to become broken; in fact, a large proportion of rollers do break in the flatting-oven from the cause named; second, a chamber is commonly employed adjacent to the door of the oven, in which chamber the rollers may remain and become heated to some extent before the same are placed in the fiatting-oven, thereby rendering the breakage from the sudden application of heatless liable to occur, and when such chamber is present the use of a crane or similar device is inconvenient; third, when handling the rollers or cylinders by any of the means referred. to, there is the liability of scratching them in withdrawing the fork from beneath the cylinders after the latter have been placed on the oven-floor.
The object of this invention is to provide improved devices to overcome these several objections; and it consists in the features of construction and combination of parts hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is asectional plan View of a flatting-oven provided with apparatus embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal section of the same on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is an enlarged vertical transverse sectional view on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 isan enlarged plan view taken 011 the line i 4 of Fig. 2. Figs. 5 and 6 are vertical transverse sectional views, re-
spectively, on lines 5 5 and 6 6 of Fig. 4.
Fig. 7 is a perspective detail view of a portion of a cylinder or roller with the clampinging plates in engagement therewith. Fig. 8 is a side view illustrating a modified form of apparatus embodying my invention. Fig.9 is a plan view of the same. Fig. 10 is a vertioal transverse sectional view on the line 10 10 of Fig. 8.
A indicates a fiatting-oven, comprising a furnace A and revoluble fiattingstones A A supported on a flatting-wheel A in the usual manner.
A is the floor of the oven, which is on the same level, or nearly so, with the flattingstones, and A is a doorway in the back of the oven, through which the glass cylinders or rollers are inserted. Upon the floor A in the line with the doorway A are located elevated supports or saddlese a, upon which the cylinders are placed and from which they may be easily removed in transferring them to the flattingstones.
a is an opening or door in the side of the oven adjacent to the fiatting-stones, through which the operator can insert a suitable tool to remove the rollers from the saddles to the flatting-stones, and there flatten out the same after they have been heated.
B is an inclosed heating chamber constructed round the doorway A and extended beyond thesame a sufficient distance to receive a cylinderor roller.
0 O are tracks or guideways arranged along I "uidewa s C. .Other forms of travelin su b 6 :ports may be obvious y substituted for the sliding supportshownas,forinstance,wheels or rollerscould be employed in place of the guide-notches d d; but these'features are not of the essence of my invention.
E E are parallel longitudinally-arranged shafts mounted on the sliding carriage D. Said shafts are supported in bearings in cross .bars (1 d, and are extended beyond or overhang the carriage at the front end of the latter, or that nearest the oven, and are there provided with double bends-or offsets e e, forming overhanging parallel eccentricallyarranged supporting arms or prongs e e for sustaining the rollers or cylinders to be inserted in the oven. The shaft E is provided in the rear of. the bend thereof with an up wardly-extending rigid arm 6 and the shaft E is similarly provided with a depending rigid arm 6 The free ends of said arms are connected by a link 6. The shaft E is extended beyond the cross-bar d, and is provided with another upwardly-extending rigid arm 6 F is a longitudinally-arranged operatingbar supported in bearings in the cross-bars cl 61, extending rearwardly or outwardly a c011- siderable distance from the adjacent end of the carriage, and desirably supported near its rear end in a bearing in another crossbar f which, as herein shown, is secured to rearwardly-extended ends of the longitudinal side pieces (1 d.
f is a transverse handle or crank attached to the operating-bar F.
f is an upwardly-extending rigid arm upon the operating-bar F, the same being connected at its outer end with the arm. 6 by a link It will be obvious that by turning the operating-bar F the shaft E will be similarlytnrned by means of the arm f and c and link f and thus the shaftE willbe turned in an opposite direction by means of the arm 6 and e and link a. It .will also be seen that the eccentric supporting arms or prongs e e, turning upon the shafts as centers, will both describe a partial revolution in a downward direction and thus lower the roller or cylinder supported thereon. 7
G indicates tongs of the kind wherein the jaws open when the handles are brought together. Said tongs are pivotally supported upon a post g, mounted on the forward crossbar d of the carriage.
G is a toggle-lever having its arms pivoted to the handles of the tongs. A lever-arm g is formed on one of the arms of said togglelever G, and an operating-rod G is connected with said lever-arm and passes rearwardly, and is for convenience held at its end in a guide formed in the rear cross-bar f of the carriage. It will be readily seen that when the operating-rod G is pulled rearwardly itwill bring together the arms of the toggle-lever G, and with them the handles of the tongs, thereby opening the jaws thereof. The said jaws are preferably provided with wide clam ping-plates g 9 suitably curved to conform to the shape of the cylinder or roller to be grasped. clamping-plates g g with a lining g g of asbestus, or cushions of other incombustiblo clamping-plates g g grasp a cylinder or roller. the said handles will be in such position't-hat the arms of the toggle-lever will be at an angle to eachother, after which by still further pushing said operating-rod the flexibility of the handles will permit the arms of said 'toggle-lever to further expand and spring them outward until they reach the limit of their outward movement, when the lever-arm will strike against the end of one of the handles and prevent a further forward movement of said togglelever and thereby lock the tongs. It will be noted that when the handles are sprung outward the clamping-plates will firmly grasp the said cylinder or roller and hold the same rigorously in position.
The parts of the apparatus embodying my invention being constructed and arranged as described, the operation is as follows: \Vhen a cylinder or roller of glass that has been cracked or split longitudinally is to be placed in the 'flatting-ove-n, the carriage D is drawn out upon the guideways until the arms or prongs e e are outside of the chamberB, and the said roller is then placed upon the said prongs. By means of the operating-rod G2 the clamping-plates are clamped and looked upon the said roller or cylinder, engaging the inner and outer surfaces of the same at either side of the longitudinal crack or split therein, thereby holding the edges from becoming overlapped in the moving of the roller. The operator then pushes .the carriage, with the roller supported thereby, into the heatingchamber, Where it is allowed to remain long enough to give the roller the desired temperature preparatory to its being inserted into the oven. The carriage is then pushed forward to carry the roller into the flatting- It is desirable to provide the said ICC ITO
A suitable tool is inserted through the opening a in the furnace and the roller removed from the saddle to the flatting stone, where it is flattened out in the usual manner.
It will be manifest that any one of a great variety of clamping devices may be employed for holding the cracked or split edges of the cylinder from becoming overlapped, instead of the particular one shown, and I do not therefore intend to limit myself to theeXact construction herein shown in the clamping device, except in the appended claims covering such specific construction.
In Figs. 8 and 9 I have illustrated a modified form of apparatus embodying some of the principal features of my invention. In this form of apparatus the supporting arms or prongs are capable only of a combined longitudinal and vertical movement with respect to the carriage. The carriage D in this instance consists of cross-bars d d and rods (Z'd, which extend rearwardly beyond the rear cross-bar and are connected. at their rear ends to form a handle by which to move the carriage. The supporting arms or prongs h h are formed by the end portion of long straight rods H II, connected by two cross-bars H H. Said cross-bars are connected with the carriage by means of links h h h h, pivoted to the said cross-bars H II and to lugs d (7. upon the crossbars (Z cl of the carriage. Said links are arranged to swing in vertical planes parallel with the rods H H, so that when the said rods are moved longitudinally they will also be given a vertical movement by the action of the links. The rearward movement of the said rods is limited by the contact of the rear links 7t 71 with the rear cross-bar d, when said links are slightly inclined backward from the vertical, so that when the rods are drawn backward they will be elevated in this position. The forward movement of the rods is limited by contact with the forward links it h with the forward eross bar, which latter is shown as notched to afford a sufficient extent of angular movement in said links. The rods H H are shown as connected at their rear ends by a crossbar, which forms a handle by which they can be conveniently moved backward and forward with reference to the carriage. The tongs G are located, as before described, upon a post on the forward cross-bars of the carriage, and have an operatinghandle which extends rearwardly and is held and guided by a post 71. on the rear crosspiece (Z of the carriage, and a post its on the cross-bar connecting the rear ends of the rods H H. The operation of moving the carriage into and out of the oven is the same as heretofore described. When it is desired to deposit a roller within the oven, the rods H H are first pulled back to elevate the same, and the roller is then placed upon the arms h h. The carriage is then thrust forward and the operator then pushes the said rods H H forward, when the links describe a partial revolution and carry the supporting-arms h 7t forward and downward. ward movement they pass on either side of the saddles a a, and below the upper edges of the same, thus allowing the rollers or cyl inders to rest upon the saddles. The carriage can then be Withdrawn and the operation repeated.
It will be understood from the above that as far as the main features of my invention are concerned I donot'wish to be limited to the particular devices shown for giving vertical movement to the arms or prongs which sustain the glass rollers or cylinders, but that any one of a great variety of devices which will readily suggest themselves to a mechanic may be used to movably sustain said prongs on the carriage and to actuate the same from a point outside of the oven. Certain of the features illustrated, however,
in themselves are novel, and are therefore herein claimed as part of my invention.
