Intermittent movement of a work piece is produced from a rotary motor which drives the case of a differential. A cam integral with the differential case drives a gear rack slider having a pinion which drives one sun gear of the differential. Another sun gear of the differential is coupled to the first sun gear by planet gears. Output drive rollers are gear driven from the shaft of the second sun gear. A switch actuated by the slider may be employed to control an external machine or to control the operation of the motion producer itself.

For the advancing or feeding motion of bars, wires or the like up to now in most cases two hydraulic devices were used, one for gripping the rod and the other for moving it. According to the invention, to make the apparatus more simple, one single hydraulic cylinder is used for this purpose and according to one embodiment of the invention the piston moved in the hydraulic cylinder actuates at the beginning of its stroke the gripping means and thereafter it shifts this gripping means together with the rod or other workpiece; according to another embodiment the piston is used only for the moving or feeding but the gripping is produced by a series of rings actuated by the same hydraulic fluid which acts on the said piston.

Wire feeding means comprises a pair of feed wheels mounted on parallel spaced-apart axes. One of the wheels has two tires mounted in side-by-side relationship on its periphery, each tire being adapted to engage one of two wires being fed. The tires are supported on the periphery of the wheel by means of helical springs which extend radially with respect to the axis of the wheel. These springs can be compressed and also can be deflected laterally thereby to permit the tires to feed different sizes of wires and to provide a resilient coupling between the tires and the wheel on which they are mounted.

The invention relates to a device for processing optical fibers, comprising: a pair of pulleys (1, 2) arranged to receive in a space between them a first optical fiber element (4), and a drive mechanism. In order to obtain a device capable of efficiently and reliably processing optical fibers the first pulley (1) in the pair of pulleys comprises a circumferential first groove (5) in a circumferential contact surface (6) for receiving the first optical fiber element (4), the first groove (5) being shaped to accommodate the first optical fiber element (4) such that less than half of the cross sectional surface area of the first optical fiber element (4) protrudes out of the first groove (5), and a second pulley (2) in the pair of pulleys comprises a circumferential contact surface (7) contacting a surface of the first optical fiber element (4). |

An apparatus and method for moving a wire along its own axis against a high resistance to its motion causing a substantial uniaxial compression stress in the wire without allowing it to buckle. The apparatus consists of a wire gripping and moving drive wheel and guide rollers for transporting the moving wire away from the drive wheel. Wire is pressed into a peripheral groove in a relatively large diameter, rotating drive wheel by a set of small diameter rollers arranged along part of the periphery causing the wire to be gripped by the groove. The drive wheel can have a smooth peripheral surface and a groove or grooves parallel in the outer surface of small diameter rollers. |

A triple roll entry guide where the guide has two sets of operation, a first which operates as a standard triple roller entry guide. Here the guide functions as a standard guide wherein three levers are pivoted about a work product axis to guide the work product into the reduction rolls of the mill. The guide will accept a predetermined size range of work products. In this instance the rollers of the guide overcome the force holding the levers in their usual working position and force the levers to assume a new position which the work product is accepted in the guide. This is the second method of operation, and in it the levers of the guide are “preloaded” so that the guide functions as a standard guide under prescribed conditions.Under conditions which lead to the acceptance of a work product of a larger diameter in the predetermined size range the levers of the guide overcome the force which limits the maximum position of the levers of the guide and the work product is accepted by the guide. |
