Description: |
| Abstract:
This invention has reference to an improvement in belt-shippers by means of which the belt for driving a machine can be moved from the loose to the tight pulley, and vice versa. The object of the invention is to facilitate the moving of the belt from one pulley to the other and to hold the belt in the desired position. The invention consists in the peculiar and novel arrangement of a crank secured to the end of a rod and connected with the shipper by a connecting-link, so that by turning the rod the shipper will be moved from one position to the other and locked in either position. It further consists in the peculiar and novel construction of the bracket, by means of which the shipper mechanism can be supported in any desired position.
Claim:
A belt-shipper consisting of a shipper-rod provided with a belt-fork, an operating-rod provided with a handle by which it can be turned, a crank connected with the operating-rod, and by means of a link with the shipper- rod, constructed to ship the belt from one pulley to the other by turning the operating-rod.
