Description
z~o The present inventlon provides an automatic high-speed cold headiny machine and more particularly a machine for forming heads on wire blanks wherein the operations of a punch, and an ejector mechanism are performed simultaneously, and wherein a punch, a cutting knife and an ejector mechanism are driven simultaneously in continuous harmonic motion for -the purpose of achieving stable high speed operation. ~-In this art, conventional heading machines, whether of the double heading type or of the rotary type, generally all 10 employ cams for one or more operations, at certain phases of the -~
cycle, to cause the cam follower to cease movement, or to pause, ~ `
at a certain angle in order to assure synchronization with other operations being performed by the machine. By this means, the -~
,~ cutting opera-tion does not conflict with the process of punching, . ~
~; the punching operation does not conflict with the process of ejecting finished pieces from the die, and so on. Generally, these operations are stagyered, with at least one operation being ..-performed after another has been completed. For example, the punching step is executed after the cutting step is completed and ; 20 the ejecting step is performed after the punching step is com-pleted. For this reason, conventional heading machines must em-ploy one or more cams that have a "pause" phase angle in one or more of the major machine operations, such as cutting, punchin~, and ejecting.
The major drawbacks of using such cam mechanisms to achieve high speed operation may be generally stated at least by ~ the followiny three points. First, due to the fact that the cam ;
j , follower of a cam device will pause and remain motionless for a specific phase angle of the cam surface,the work phase angle of the cam, which may drive the follower to perform a specific - operation, will be decreased. As the length of the pause of the pause angle increases, the working phase angle will decrease ,. . .
f, ..
r, ~
32~(;1 proportionately. To compensate for this loss of working angle J
the remaining working angle mus~ be made steeper, thus causing the rate of acceleration of the follower to be increased. As the acceleration is increased the shock load and stress on both the cam and the follower is increased proportionately~ For this reason, malfunctions, damage, and loss may be expected when one is trying to achieve high speed operation.
~ Second, in order to overcome the high speed stress `` mentioned above when the cam is driven at high speeds, it is necessary to increase the size of the cam and the cam follower so that their respective load carrying capacities will be increased.
However, when the cam occupies more space, more inertia will be ~`~ produced as the cam revolves. Therefore, cam mechanisms are not , well suited to drive heading machine operations in high speed production.
Third, because the cam follower must use a spring in ~ ~ !
order to insure that the follower is always in contact with the ,1 cam surface during high speed operation or when the path of travel is too long, inertial forces on the follower will make it diffic-ult for the follower to return smoothly to the cam surface. Thus, .
- banging, vibration, and other undesirable phenomona, such as localized wear on the cam surface, will result.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that if all opera-tions can be performed at the same time, the rate of production will be increased siynificantly. In other words, for ;_ each individual operation that is performed by a conventional ; ~ forming machine, a machine constructed according to the teachings ' illustrated in the present invention will have completed one piece.
Furthermore, since each operation is independent o any other 1-: :
i~ 30 operation and since there is no conflict between operations, the j~ machine can operate at speeds hitherto impossible. The present invention has attained produc~ion rates of 800 pieces per minute

Since the load carrying capacity of eccentric shafts far exceeds that of cams and since eccentric shafts have superior stability when compared to cams, there is a minimum wear on the machine parts and an absolute minimum of nois~

As shown in Fig. 1, a source of power which includes a motor 100 provides mechanical power to a main eccentric shaft 200 by means of a V-belt pulley 101 on the motor, a V-belt pulley 103 on the shaft, and a connecting V-belt 102. A bevel gear 201 and a spur gear 202 are keyed on the main shaft 200 and (as best seen in Fig. 4) a ram connection 301 is pivotally fixed to the ram 300 on an eccentric portion of the main shaft 200.
The bevel gear 201 i5 engaged with a bevel gear 401 which drives a wire-cutting eccentric shaft 400, on the other end `"
of which is mounted a connection 402. The connection 402 is attached to one end of a reciprocating slide shaft 500, as best .
, seen in Fig. 6. The shaft 500 has a cutting tool 501 affixed to f its other end. The wirecutt ng eccentric shaft 400 also has an eccentric rotating disk 403 mounted on its extended end. One end of a driving link 404 connected to the disk 403 has a pivotal ~ 20 connection on a crank rod 601. The crank rod 601 is connected t~ to a friction pla~e 611 (as best seen in Figs. 2 and 4) and a ~r~ cylindrical indexing table type die head 600, for the purposes of transmitting accurate intermittent motion to the die head 600.
; '' These connections are best seen in Fig. 2.
~ As shown in Figs. 1 and 3, the spur gear 202 on the I main eccentric shaft 200 is engaged with a spur gear 231 which is ; fixed on a rotating short shaft 203. The short shaft 203 is located behind the shaft 200 as shown in Fig. 1 as confirmed by the left hand portion of Fig. ~. The spur gear 231 on the short shaft 203 and a bevel gear 232 are coupled and rotate as a unit.
i: .
, ~ A bevel gear 241 is attached to one end of a coupling shaft 204 and is engaged with a bevel gear 232. A bevel gear 242 on the '~ ~
,- . .
z~
other end of the shaft 204 is engaged with a bevel gear 802.
The beYel gear 802 in turn drives an eccentric knockout shaft 801. A knockout connection 803 is mounted by means of antifri-ction bearin~s to the eccentric knockout shaft 804' on an eccentric portion of the shat 804 (see Fig. 4). The knockout connection 803 is linked to a rocker arm 800 which is slipped over an eccentric shaft 804 so that the shaft 804 serves as a fulcrum for the oscillating motion of the rocker arm 800 and a ram bolt 805 (see Fig. 4). This simple construction results in an extremely high-speed and accurate knockout operation.
Figs. 3 and 5 illustrate the mannex in which a rotating disc 250 with a T-slot 251 sunk into the middle of its upper surface is fixed on the extreme end of the eccentric knock-out shaft 801 on the same side of the shaft upon which the bevel gear 802 is keyed. A feeding roller 255 is caused to move by a connectiny rod 253, which is pivotally connected at its upper end to a crank 254, while its lower end is connected to an adjustable ~liding pin 252. When the disc 250 starts to move, the feed roller 255 will drive the other corresponding feed roller 902 to convey the wire stock 900 which is fed in from the wire straight-ener 901. Should it~ be necessary to vary the rate of feeding wire stock, the connection rod 253 may be set closer to or further away from the center of the T-slot 251 (see Fig. 5).
~igs. 7A-7C illustrate the rotary die head with part of its interior structure shown in cross section. Numerals are provided for each individual part to clarify the presentation.
In Fig. 7A, the rotating die head 600, which is made of a solid cyli.ndrical body, is provided with several die impressions 701, 702, 703, 704, and 705 (see Fig. 7B) which are arranged at the ; 30 end surface of the die head 600. A plurality of knockout rods ~ 711, 712, 713, 714, and 715 extend through the rear of the die head 600.

In order to provide a detailed expl~nation of the die head of the present invention, the die impression 705 shown in cross section in Fig. 7A will be taken as an example. However, - all of the dies are substantially identical in structure to the die 705.
The die impression 705 is provided ~ith a front knock out rod 765. A sleeve 745 for the front knockout rod 765 is inlaid into a tapered hold provided in the end of -the die head 600 that is nearest the die face. A die impression 725 made of tungsten tool steel is also inserted into the opening. Finally, each part is firmly fastened in the die head 600 by means of a tapered sleeve 735 which is inserted from the front of the die head 600. Furthermore, a coil spring 755 is coiled about the front knockout rod 765. The front knockout rod 765 is inserted from the rear end of the die. The unexposed end of the rear ,.
knockout rod 715 is directly connected to the rear end of the ' front knockout rod 765. The threaded sleeve 775 is used to adjust _ the amount of movement of the rear knockout rod 715. A lock nut 785 is used to hold the sleeve 775 tightly to the die head. A
cushioning set 795 made of elastic material is mounted at the exposed end of the knockout rod 715 in order to absorb any shock load occurring during operation.
Figs. 8A and 8B depict a partial cross-sectional view of the wire stock cutoff and feedin~ device. The wire stock 900 is fed in through the straightener 902 (see Fig. 1) and is passed , ~ through a cutting die 903 where it contacts an adjustable stopper , 1001 that is used to adjust the length of the cutof~ blank 900'.
~ The stopper is located at the rear side of the cutoff blank stacker which is the side closest to the entry of the wire 900.
As the wire cutting shaft 500 ~oves forward and cuts off wire ~- stock into predetermined lengths by means of a U-shaped cutting tool with a semi-circular cutting edge 501, its two protruding , ., . . .. .. . . ~, .. ~ , . .... .
~34~L0 arms, 511 and 512, accurately push the two ends of the eutoff blank 900' forward with uniform force into ~he cutoff ~lank stacker 1000. When the cutoff blank has been pushed into the cutoff blank stacker 1000, a retaining arm 1003, with inclined edges 1005 and 1006 at its pointed end, and able to move up and down by rneans of its fulcrum 1002, tightly holds and retains the cutoff blanks 901' so that they are closely skacked in a linear arrangement, with the foremost eutoff blank positioned at 900"
in the stacker 1000 in proper alignment with a die opening, sueh as 701, of the rotary die head 600. A rod (not shown) provided on the ram 300 then pushes the eutoff blank into the die opening.
The eutting shaft need only travel a distance slightly larger than the diameter of the wire stock in order to accomplish both cutting and feeding to the stacker. Due to the efficieney of the stacker, the cutter may cut and feed in continuous harmonie motion with no pause or dwell.
As shown in Figs. 2 and 6, the rotary die head 600 is driven by means of a frictional clutch 611 which is mounted on the eylindrieal die head 600 and is connected to the shaft 400 by means of a drlve link 404. The drive link 404 is conneeted at one end to a friction link 601 that drives the die head 600 in a rotary motion due to the oselllating motion of the frietion link 601. The drive link 404 is eonneeted at its other end to the eeeentrie shaf~ 400 and an eeeentrie pla-te 402. The frietional eluteh 611 is so desiyned that the rotary die head 600 will be free to move with the frictional link 601 when the drive link 404 . , moves in the direetion indicated by the arrow. As the drive link ~' 40~ makes a return rnovement, however, the frictional eluteh 611 will prevent the die head 600 from moving in a reverse motion, and the die head will remain stationary until the drive link 404 - again begins to move in the direction of the arrow. To insure that the rotary die head 600 is absolutely motionless during ,, :

Now that the entire construction of the preferred embodiment of the present invèntion has been described in detail, it will be explained why such a construction provides for a bolt - heading machine capable of a stable, safe, high speed heading ~-operation that is superior to any that is known in the prior art.

As shown in Fig. 1, a source of power which includes a motor 100 provides mechanical power to a main eccentric shaft 200 by means of a V-belt pulley 101 on the motor, a V-belt pulley 103 on the shaft, and a connecting V-belt 102. A bevel gear 201 and a spur gear 202 are keyed on the main shaft 200 and (as best seen in Fig. 4) a ram connection 301 is pivotally fixed to the ram 300 on an eccentric portion of the main shaft 200.
The bevel gear 201 i5 engaged with a bevel gear 401 which drives a wire-cutting eccentric shaft 400, on the other end `"
of which is mounted a connection 402. The connection 402 is attached to one end of a reciprocating slide shaft 500, as best .
, seen in Fig. 6. The shaft 500 has a cutting tool 501 affixed to f its other end. The wirecutt ng eccentric shaft 400 also has an eccentric rotating disk 403 mounted on its extended end. One end of a driving link 404 connected to the disk 403 has a pivotal ~ 20 connection on a crank rod 601. The crank rod 601 is connected t~ to a friction pla~e 611 (as best seen in Figs. 2 and 4) and a ~r~ cylindrical indexing table type die head 600, for the purposes of transmitting accurate intermittent motion to the die head 600.
; '' These connections are best seen in Fig. 2.
~ As shown in Figs. 1 and 3, the spur gear 202 on the I main eccentric shaft 200 is engaged with a spur gear 231 which is ; fixed on a rotating short shaft 203. The short shaft 203 is located behind the shaft 200 as shown in Fig. 1 as confirmed by the left hand portion of Fig. ~. The spur gear 231 on the short shaft 203 and a bevel gear 232 are coupled and rotate as a unit.
i: .
, ~ A bevel gear 241 is attached to one end of a coupling shaft 204 and is engaged with a bevel gear 232. A bevel gear 242 on the '~ ~
,- . .
z~
other end of the shaft 204 is engaged with a bevel gear 802.
The beYel gear 802 in turn drives an eccentric knockout shaft 801. A knockout connection 803 is mounted by means of antifri-ction bearin~s to the eccentric knockout shaft 804' on an eccentric portion of the shat 804 (see Fig. 4). The knockout connection 803 is linked to a rocker arm 800 which is slipped over an eccentric shaft 804 so that the shaft 804 serves as a fulcrum for the oscillating motion of the rocker arm 800 and a ram bolt 805 (see Fig. 4). This simple construction results in an extremely high-speed and accurate knockout operation.
Figs. 3 and 5 illustrate the mannex in which a rotating disc 250 with a T-slot 251 sunk into the middle of its upper surface is fixed on the extreme end of the eccentric knock-out shaft 801 on the same side of the shaft upon which the bevel gear 802 is keyed. A feeding roller 255 is caused to move by a connectiny rod 253, which is pivotally connected at its upper end to a crank 254, while its lower end is connected to an adjustable ~liding pin 252. When the disc 250 starts to move, the feed roller 255 will drive the other corresponding feed roller 902 to convey the wire stock 900 which is fed in from the wire straight-ener 901. Should it~ be necessary to vary the rate of feeding wire stock, the connection rod 253 may be set closer to or further away from the center of the T-slot 251 (see Fig. 5).
~igs. 7A-7C illustrate the rotary die head with part of its interior structure shown in cross section. Numerals are provided for each individual part to clarify the presentation.
In Fig. 7A, the rotating die head 600, which is made of a solid cyli.ndrical body, is provided with several die impressions 701, 702, 703, 704, and 705 (see Fig. 7B) which are arranged at the ; 30 end surface of the die head 600. A plurality of knockout rods ~ 711, 712, 713, 714, and 715 extend through the rear of the die head 600.
9L82~
In order to provide a detailed expl~nation of the die head of the present invention, the die impression 705 shown in cross section in Fig. 7A will be taken as an example. However, - all of the dies are substantially identical in structure to the die 705.
The die impression 705 is provided ~ith a front knock out rod 765. A sleeve 745 for the front knockout rod 765 is inlaid into a tapered hold provided in the end of -the die head 600 that is nearest the die face. A die impression 725 made of tungsten tool steel is also inserted into the opening. Finally, each part is firmly fastened in the die head 600 by means of a tapered sleeve 735 which is inserted from the front of the die head 600. Furthermore, a coil spring 755 is coiled about the front knockout rod 765. The front knockout rod 765 is inserted from the rear end of the die. The unexposed end of the rear ,.
knockout rod 715 is directly connected to the rear end of the ' front knockout rod 765. The threaded sleeve 775 is used to adjust _ the amount of movement of the rear knockout rod 715. A lock nut 785 is used to hold the sleeve 775 tightly to the die head. A
cushioning set 795 made of elastic material is mounted at the exposed end of the knockout rod 715 in order to absorb any shock load occurring during operation.
Figs. 8A and 8B depict a partial cross-sectional view of the wire stock cutoff and feedin~ device. The wire stock 900 is fed in through the straightener 902 (see Fig. 1) and is passed , ~ through a cutting die 903 where it contacts an adjustable stopper , 1001 that is used to adjust the length of the cutof~ blank 900'.
~ The stopper is located at the rear side of the cutoff blank stacker which is the side closest to the entry of the wire 900.
As the wire cutting shaft 500 ~oves forward and cuts off wire ~- stock into predetermined lengths by means of a U-shaped cutting tool with a semi-circular cutting edge 501, its two protruding , ., . . .. .. . . ~, .. ~ , . .... .
~34~L0 arms, 511 and 512, accurately push the two ends of the eutoff blank 900' forward with uniform force into ~he cutoff ~lank stacker 1000. When the cutoff blank has been pushed into the cutoff blank stacker 1000, a retaining arm 1003, with inclined edges 1005 and 1006 at its pointed end, and able to move up and down by rneans of its fulcrum 1002, tightly holds and retains the cutoff blanks 901' so that they are closely skacked in a linear arrangement, with the foremost eutoff blank positioned at 900"
in the stacker 1000 in proper alignment with a die opening, sueh as 701, of the rotary die head 600. A rod (not shown) provided on the ram 300 then pushes the eutoff blank into the die opening.
The eutting shaft need only travel a distance slightly larger than the diameter of the wire stock in order to accomplish both cutting and feeding to the stacker. Due to the efficieney of the stacker, the cutter may cut and feed in continuous harmonie motion with no pause or dwell.
As shown in Figs. 2 and 6, the rotary die head 600 is driven by means of a frictional clutch 611 which is mounted on the eylindrieal die head 600 and is connected to the shaft 400 by means of a drlve link 404. The drive link 404 is conneeted at one end to a friction link 601 that drives the die head 600 in a rotary motion due to the oselllating motion of the frietion link 601. The drive link 404 is eonneeted at its other end to the eeeentrie shaf~ 400 and an eeeentrie pla-te 402. The frietional eluteh 611 is so desiyned that the rotary die head 600 will be free to move with the frictional link 601 when the drive link 404 . , moves in the direetion indicated by the arrow. As the drive link ~' 40~ makes a return rnovement, however, the frictional eluteh 611 will prevent the die head 600 from moving in a reverse motion, and the die head will remain stationary until the drive link 404 - again begins to move in the direction of the arrow. To insure that the rotary die head 600 is absolutely motionless during ,, :
;: - 10 -:
~482~
this reverse motion sequence of the drive link, the die head i~
provided with a ratchet 603 and a pawl 602 (~ee Fiy. 6).
Now that the entire construction of the preferred embodiment of the present invèntion has been described in detail, it will be explained why such a construction provides for a bolt - heading machine capable of a stable, safe, high speed heading ~-operation that is superior to any that is known in the prior art.
3 Referring to Fig. 4, it will be noted that the ram 300 is depicted completely withdrawn from the face of the die head 600. Elowever, due to the continuous rotation of the shaft 200, the eccentric portion 200' will immediately begin to drive the ram 300 forward toward the die face of the die head 600. It is at this precise moment that the eccentric portion 801' of the shaft 801 will begin to drive the knockout mechanism, and the ram bolt 805 will conseyuently begin to purch one of the knockout rods 711~15. At the same time, the cutting rod 500 will be returning to its original position in preparation for advancing and cutting a blank. As can be seen in Fig. 6, the cutting shaft 500 is driven by the same type of eccentric shaft as used to drive the ram and the knockout device. Therefore, there will be no ?
dwell period throughout the cutting operation. As the above shafts con~inue to rotate, the ram 300 causes a ram rod (not -shown) to feed a blank 900" from the stacker 1000 into the die that is in alignment with the new blank as it leaves the stacker.
The ram 300 also causes punches (not shown) to perEorm the headin~
_ operation on blanks that are in the next three dies in sequence ; at the same time as the ram bolt 805 causes a knockout rod to ~
eject a finished piece from the last and, in this case, the ~ , bottommost die in sequence. A cavity or recess (not shown) may ~` 30 be provided on the punch head to accommodate the blank being ejected to allow it to travel without obstruction rom the die to a suitable reception trough from which it may leave the machine.

~8Z~O
As the above-described punching and ejecting operations are being performed, the rotary die head 600 is prevented from rotating by the frictional clutch 611 and the locking action of the pawl 602 and the rachet 603. Only as the main ram 300 and the ram boLt 805 simultaneously becJin to recede, will the rotary head 600 be free to rota~e. ~s the head rotates one pitch of the distance between two successive dies, the ram 300 and the ram bolt 805 will simultaneously recede to their furthest point and begin to make a return stroke in order to perform the same opera-tions on the newly-positioned dies. During the entire operation, there is no dwell or temporary cessation of any of the respective driving mechanisms. Due to the efficiency of the stacker 1000, ~` the cutting shaf-t is not impeded by rotation of the die head 600 Because of (1) the absence of any dwell in the indiv-. idual operations, (2) the shorter distance traveled by all tools because of the superior load-carrying capacity of eccentric shafts over cams, and (3) the fact that every operation may be performed simultaneously, it is possible to perform at least 800 I operations in one minute. In other words, bolts, screws, and the like, can be produced at the rate of at least 800 per minute ~:~ when using a machine constructed according to the present . . .
