Description: |
Walter J. Muncaster was the plant superintendent for W. W. McKaig & Son foundry.
Abstract:
My invention relates to apparatus or machinery for straightening shafting; and it consists, primarily, in a traveling press adapted to sustain the shaft and to exert the required pressure or force thereon, the press being adapted to travel lengthwise of the shaft and thus to act upon every portion thereof.
Claim:
In a machine for straightening metal, the combination of a frame and a traveling press provided with rests or supports for the metal to be straightened, wholly independent of the bed or frame of the machine upon which the press is supported, and open at the upper side to permit the shaft or bar to be placed upon or removed from the rests laterally. |
