Image Description:
The accompanying illustration shows all the improvements, which have been made to date in the upright power hammer manufactured by the Belden Machine Company of New Haven, Conn. This hammer has been thoroughly tested during the past three years and has proved to be economical and efficient. The anvil block is separate from the frame and the dies are never together when the hammer is idle. The following points are claimed by the makers to mark the superiority of this machine: The metallic spring connection, which, in connection with the spring, adds greatly to the power of the blow; the right and left adjusting nut, with two check nuts for adjusting the ram up or down; the right and left adjusting screw in the face wheel; which enables the operator to regulate the stroke and the hammer from one extreme size of stock to the other in half a minute; the adjustable brake strap; the idler, which is conceded to be the proper mode of conveying the power to the hammer and the guides, or ways, are heavy and separate from both the frame and from each other.
