Shears for Cutting Metal
|
Henry C. Smith |
Detroit, Wayne County, MI |
The patent date appears on this Quickwork 60A shear.
Claim:
This invention relates to shears for cutting metal, or sheet material of any kind. It has for its object an improved machine intended to cut sheets of moderate thickness and of any size along lines of any geometrical design; having a capacity to cut any line from an accurately straight line to a curved line with a radius equal to the cutters or even less than the radius of the cutters, and the cutters may have a very small radius. |

Power Hammer
|
Henry C. Smith |
Detroit, Wayne County, MI |
Claim:
This invention relates to power hammers and some of its objects arc to provide means whereby the stroke of the hammer may be varied while the shaft that drives the hammer is in motion; to provide means for automatically causing the stroke to become zero when the operator leaves the machine or ceases to control the hammer; to provide means for adjusting the anvil, for maintaining it in adjusted position, and for preventing it from rebounding; and to improve the construction of the machine generally. |

Power-Hammer
|
Henry C. Smith |
Detroit, Wayne County, MI |
Claim:
This invention relates to power hammer and other blow-striking devices, and some, of its objects are to provide means whereby the stroke of the hammer may be varied while the driving shaft is in motion; to provide means for automatically causing the stroke to become zero when the operator leaves the machine or ceases to control the hammer: and to improve the construction of the machine generally. |

Work-Support for Rotary Shears
|
Henry C. Smith |
Detroit, Wayne County, MI |
Claim:
This invention relates to means for centering and supporting sheets and plates so that circular disks may be cut therefrom correctly by means of revolving cutters, and its object is to provide a supporting device which will automatically move to proper position under the stress of the cutters. The words rotary shear usually designate the tool as a whole, while the cutting members tire usually termed cutters. |

Shear
|
Henry C. Smith |
St. Marys, Auglaize County, OH |
Claim:
In the use of rotary shears designed to operate on long metal sheets, it was customary heretofore for the workman at the end of the sheet to either himself watch the feeding of the sheet into the machine and to having it to the right or left as might be needled to keep the cutters true to line, or to take directions by word of mouth or by motion of the hand of an operator stationed close up to the machine. This procedure is wasteful in the matter of time and leads to inaccuracy in the work. |

Indicator For Shears
|
Henry C. Smith |
St. Marys, Auglaize County, OH |
Claim:
This invention relates to means for indicating the direction in which a sheet of metal must be swung in order to be operated upon along a predetermined line by means of machine tools, the invention being for the same purpose as the indicating device shown in Patent No. 1,313,960, dated 26 August, 1919; and the object of this invention is to provide a simple and effective indicator which is visible from any side of the tool convenient to the workmen. |

Circle Cutting Attachment For Rotary Shears
|
Henry C. Smith Jr. |
Chicago, Cook County, IL |
Claim:
This invention relates to circle cutting attachments for rotary shears of the type in which the center of the work-holders will during the cutting operation automatically be caused by the pull of the rotary cutters upon the blank to automatically move to proper position for cutting a true circle. |

Forming and Trimming Machine
|
Henry C. Smith Jr. |
Chicago, Cook County, IL |
Claim:
My invention relates to a machine for trimming, beading, flanging and forming, not only large, but small stampings without the use of presses and/or dies. Heretofore this work has been done primarily by expensive presses and dies. There has long been a demand for a machine which would do this work without the use of presses and dies. Therefore, I have with my invention, solved this problem by providing a rotary machine which eliminates entirely the use of presses and dies and at the same time produces the results of a press combined with a smooth, clean-cutting action of a rotary shear. |
