Definitions

the invention relates to. matrix-setting and type-line-casting machines with discontinuous circulation, by means of a conveyor device. con sisting of two separate, movable frames, of the 5 matrix bars guided on wires, In suchmachines, the set matrices have to be lifted from the. cast ing station to a distributing station whence, by virtue of their ownweight, they slide back intothe inoperative stations on Wires extendingin curves through space. On their way from the casting station to the inoperative stations, the matrix bars have to make a revolution of 360 about their longitudinal axis.
the disadvantages of such matrix-setting-and type linev casting machines provided with a circulation-whether continuous by-means of endless guiding wires or.
discontinuous by means of a conveyor device consisted substantially in the constructional diffi'culties in the design of these complicated and very unwieldy machines. It is precisely the dimensions'of the existing circulation machines which have continually prompted'the search for new means of providing a machine of dimensions not differing substantially from those'of setting machines having matrices suspended on wires and operating without. circulation of -the matrices. chines, the cast matrices have .beenlifted for example by means of a verticallyislidablecarriage guided in special rails, to thedistributing static-n situated high above, and in the same plane as, the casting station: From. thence they.
the matrix bars have to make a'revolution of 360 about their longitudinal axis, and in addition have tobe carried from the common distributingstation into the symmetricalhalves of the inoperative station extending on two opposite sides and, further.- more, since the said-inoperative stations are arranged as usual in two entirely different planes from the plane of the casting orcollecting' s'ta-L ti.on,it is necessary to provide a long and com plicated arrangement of the; slide wires through space; The matrixibars travel over such long paths in a sliding movement merely by'virtue of their own weight that the highest point of the distributing wiresmust also be made correspondingly high.
This new setting machine is scarcely larger in dimensions than the known setting machines having matrices carried on wires without circulation.
the dimensions amount in width to about 1100 mm., in depth about 1000 mm. and in height about 1750 mm.
the indicated advantages are obtained by the specialoriginal arangement and movement of the separated conveyor frames which have been selected instead of one carriage moved vertically from the casting station to one distributing station.
the said frames are also it 'is true guided to two separate distributingstations, .but according to the invention, the frames are not swung upin the plane of the casting station, and also I the long levers, heretofore essential, as well as the laterally extending rail guides for the frames are dispensed with in the new machine.
the two conveyor frames are mounted each rotatable about a vertical axis in such a manner that, together with the matrix bars, which are suspended in them and are to be distributed, they are rotated simultaneously through about 130 out of the plane'of the casting station, and at the same time are also lifted upwardly to the distributing wires, that is to say, therefore, they make a helical movement.
the distributing stations are no longer situated, as in the machines constructed heretofore, in the plane of the casting station, but in two planes differing therefrom, each removed in the direction of the corresponding magazine halves. Due to these distributing stations being disposed in space near the inoperative stations, quite.
FIG. 1 shows an elevation. of the machine with matrix conveyor frames in the lowermost receiving or casting position
Figure 2 shows a side elevation of Figure 1
Figure 3 shows a plan of Figure 1.
Figure 5 shows another constructional form of the conveyor frame or the means'for moving it, in the lowermost position
Figure 6 shows the uppermost position, i. e., the distributing position of the conveyor frame shown in Figure 5.
the matrix bars 2 hanging in the inoperative stations 1 are released by striking the keys 3 and slide along the guide wires 4 on to the wires 5 forming the collecting station. From thence, the set matrix lines are pushed by means of known devices, for example a pusher either by the compositor by hand or by the machine, on
the inoperative, collecting and casting station each consist of two perfectly symmetrical halves, and the same applies, therefore, to the so-called basket of the machine formed by the slide wires.
the wires 6 of the casting station which are either inclined or horizontal, are fixed in two separate, movable frames '7. These frames are mounted for example by means of the arms 8 and the guide sleeves 9 rotatably about the two round bars 10 fixed to the machine frame.
the bars 10 are'held at their distance apart by a cross member 11.
helically extending grooves 12 are machined in the bars 10.
the grooves 12 are so machined in the bars 10 that during one hit of the guide sleeves 9 or the frame 7, the latter make a rotation through about thus passing out of the lower position shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3 and corresponding to the casting operation, into the upper distributing position, corresponding to the distributing operation, as shown in Figure 4 and as indicated in Figures 1 and 3 by chain lines.
the simultaneous upward and turning movement of the conveyor frames 7 is effected simply by lifting up'the guide sleeves 9, and this may be 1 done in any desired manner.
the guide sleeves 9 are moved by rods 14 which are hingedly connected to the cranks 15 operated by the drive of the machine, or connected, for example, to suitably arranged cams (see 1 Figure 2).
matrix supporting and guiding wires connecting the stations having their free receiving and discharge ends located respectively at the distributing and collecting stations, matrix receiving and conveying frames constitute ing a casting station mounted for vertical and sliding and rocking movement on. the main frame and normally located adjacent the collecting station for receiving matrices therefrom, and means for operating the conveying frames to move the same from their normal positions near the collecting station to the distributing station so that the matrices can be transferred to the distributing stations.
means for rotatably and slidably mounting the conveyor frames carrying the matrix bars to be distributed including arms extending from the frames, guide sleeves connecting the arms of each frame together, vertical guide bars secured to the machine frame for rotatably receiving the sleeves, means on the sleeves for slidably connectingthe same to the bars so that the frames during their lifting, effected for the purpose of distributing the matrix bars hanging in them, are turned positively at the same time and perform a helical movement through,
