<p>1,081,496. Shearing. SCHLOEMANN A.G. Dec. 31, 1965 [Jan. 22, 1965]; No. 55355/65. Heading B3W. In a reciprocating shear the upper blade beam 16 is driven by a main crank-shaft 2 and connecting rods 14 and 15 and in addition to its rectilinear movement has a rocking movement which is produced by a subsidiary crank-shaft 3 which is connected to a rearward extension of the blade beam by a rod 37. The crank-shafts 2 and 3 are geared together by toothed wheels 4, 5, 6 and 7, Fig. 2, and the subsidiary crankshaft 3 has its crank angularly displaced relative to the crank of the main crank-shaft so that the connecting -rod 37 leads the connecting rods 14 and 15 of the main crank-shaft. A pivot shaft 38 is fixed in the upper blade beam and pivotally carries at each end a slide block 39. These slide blocks are each guided between two wedge-shaped members 40 and 41 which are mounted on, and are displaceable vertically in the shear frame. The displacement of the members 40 and 41 is effected by rods 45 which are driven through worm-gear by a motor 42. Simultaneous vertical movement of the members 40 and 41 produces horizontal movement of the blade beam for adjusting the working clearance between the cutters. A cylinder (46), Fig. 3 (not shown), biases the blade beam towards the wedge 41. In a modification, Fig. 4 (not shown), there is an intermediate pinion (56) between the toothed wheels mounted on the crank-shafts so that the shafts rotate in the same direction and in this embodiment the guides for the upper blade beam comprise slide shoes (66, and 67) which are pivotally mounted in the front and rear respectively of the blade beam. The shoes (66) run on rails (68) which are acted on by springs and the shoes (67) engage tapered members (69) which are, arranged to slide on correspondingly tapered bearing members (70) attached to the shear frame. To adjust the working clearance between the cutters the tapered member (69) is raised or lowered by a vertical spindle (71) which has a threaded upper end which passes through nuts (72) and (73). In both embodiments the shear is one of a pair which are mounted face-to-face on a common bed and are used for trimming the edges of metal plates which are moved between the shears on a roller table. The shears are movable on the common bed by means of motor-driven screwed spindles 27 and 28 which pass through nuts 29 secured to the shear frame. The shears are each driven by a motor 8 and to ensure synchronous running the motors are connected together either electrically or by mechanical means comprising shafts 34 and 35 and gearing 31, 32, 33.</p> |
