Description: |
| Abstract:
This invention has for its object the production of a machine adapted to feed a strip of wood to a reciprocating punch, then set the punch slightly into the strip, afterward to saw off a block of sufficient size, then to withdraw the punch with the block impaled upon its end, followed by and feeding the strip forward, and then to complete the punching of the first hung and set the punch slightly again into the strip, the operation being such that with each forward motion of the punch a bung is discharged from the rear end of the punch, dropping down in front of a plunger, which drives it into a compressing-die, out of which it is discharged by a follower as the plunger recedes.
Claim:
In a machine for making bungs, the com-bination, with a saw mounted in an intermittently-oscillating frame, a tubular reciprocating punch, and a frame for supporting and guiding the strip or blank, of rollers for feed-lug the strip forward, rotary shafts for carrying said rollers, said shafts being connected by pinion-gearing, a pawl-and-ratchet mechanism mounted on one of said shafts and provided with a sleeve, G', and lever G2, a push-bar having an adjustable connection with said lever, and a rotary shaft carrying a lug for actuating said push-bar, and a cam for actuating the saw-frame. |
