Jeff Joslin Vintage Machinery entry for Champion Blower & Forge Co.

Description: |
The inventor was the founder (in 1875) of Champion Blower & Forge."This invention relates to that class of gearing wherein rollers take the place of teeth in transmitting motion, with the object of reducing friction to the minimum; and the present invention aims to provide improved construction of gear-wheel wherein movement-transmitting balls may be confined in sockets in the wheel without requiring retainers as separate parts or attachments, the invention residing in a peculiar sectional construction of the body of the wheel itself whereby the desired result is obtained." |
