IMPROVEMENT mwnnsns ron 'rmxvsns IBEADING-MACIHINY'ES;

The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known tliat I, BENJAMIN S. Paurmrncn, of Pilatka, in the county of Putnam and State of Florida, have invented a new and improved Wheel for Tinners Beading-Machine; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof; which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 represents anlend view of my hnpi'oved a projecting groove on the lower end of the upper part,

into which a shoulder on the upper end of the lower part; was inserted.

This process was laborious and expensive. Lovercome the difliculty by the use of two toothed wheels, A and B, by which thelbead or shoulder is formed on the dripp'er, and thc lower edge turned-in at the same, I

the teeth serving to crimp the lower part of such dripper, in order to take up the expansion otherwise produced by the formation of the bead. The teeth on both these wheels do not extend from end to end.

On the wheel A- they reach from the shoulder a at one end tonrahbet, b, at the other end.

. by simple operation.

011 the wheel B they reach from a groove, 0, at one end to a shoulder, 11,, at the other end.

The two wheels are ofequal length, and are to 'be fitted upon the arms of a beading-machine in' such a manner that theirteeth mesh into each. other, and

that the shoulder a fits into the groove c, and'the shoulder cl-into the rabbet b, as in fig. 2.

The teeth 0 ofthe wheel Aare deeper than those, j, of the wheel B. The latter are tapering, being highest near the shoulder 11, as shown the teeth should be rounded, to prevent them fron, cutting the sheet metal.

'Thedripper to be erimpe d beaded is placed around the wheel A, and-wlth its lower edge against the shoulder d, which serves as a gauge. The wheels are then revolved, and crimp that part'of the dripper which is held between them, besides throwing out a beadbythe shoulder a and groove 0, and drawing in' the loweredge by the shoulder d'and the rabbet b. The dripper is thus completed out of one piece, and The tapering teeth will serve to make the lower part of the dipper of'tapering or conical form.

Having thus described 'my invention,

I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- I I Thetoothed wheels A B, having the shoulder a and rabbetb, and the groove 0 and shoulder d respectivclygand to be applied to a beading-machine, substantially as herein shown and described.
