    摘要: This relates to a machine for shirring tubularfilms such as those used for sausage casings. The films are continuously fed onto a mandrel where they are opened from their flat state and then are fed at a selected rate through a shirring head. The shirred casing is then gripped and advanced in a manner so as to control the density thereof and to impart a spin thereto as desired. The shirred casing, while being spun, is gripped by a pair of cooperating units and a leading portion of the shirred casing is separated at predetermined spacings into individual strands-which are then fed along the mandrel individually and are compressed and doffed from the mandrel into a strand handler which then presents each strand to an end closer and thereafter deposits the closed strand on a receiving tray. A mandrel clamp assembly supports the mandrel and introduces liquid and air into the mandrel, and includes a sealing sleeve and a mandrel positioning pin. A control shaft is formed in sections and each shaft section other than a starting section is supported by a single bearing. Adjacent ends of the shaft sections are formed with projecting half-circular cross-sectional portions which are overlapped and then are clamped together by a radially expanding wedge device disposed within a sleeve encircling the shaft portions. An apparatus is provided for treating a separated strand of shirred casing. The strand is fed along the mandrel and a stop member is positioned transversely of the mandrel adjacent a free end thereof, after which the trailing end of the strand is engaged by a shaping device which, as it advances toward the stop to compress the strand, is oscillated or rotated also to dress the trailing end of the strand. When the stop is opened, the same member is used to doff the strand from the mandrel. The control shaft controls the timed operation of various components of the machine. The control shaft is driven by a primary drive unit of the machine through a quick change gear unit and an adjustable drive connection so as to vary the functions of the machine primarily for the purpose of varying the lengths of strands of shirred casing produced by the machine. There is a drive mechanism of the rack and pinion type wherein the length of the rack is less than the required travel and there are plural drive pinions which singly and then sequentially engage the rack. The drive pinions may be driven in any manner, but when a variation in speed is desired in addition to reciprocation, it has been found that a cam type drive will provide the desired mechanical movement. The rack may be beneficially used to effectthe controlled movement of a shirred casing strand along a mandrel. A gripper-separator unit separates continuously shirred casings into individual strands. The gripper is provided with hold back blades which engage the shirred casing whilethe separator is provided with like blades which engage the shirred casing substantially in the same plane as the gripper blades. The separator is then rapidly moved away from the gripper so as to snap the casing at the point of engagement by the blades. Suitable drives are provided for separately reciprocating the gripper and the separator and various drives are provided for positioning the blades. When the casing is being spun, the separator and the gripper are spun in unison therewith.

    摘要: A take-up assembly (10) for storing and selectively feeding and taking up flexible hydraulic hoses (20) extending between the body or mast (12) of a lift truck (14) and the vertically-reciprocating load carriage (18) of the truck includes mechanical design features for facilitating servicing while mounted on the truck (14). In particular, the assembly (10) has a reel structure (22) providing a line-storing hub (56) comprising two separate line-supporting surface portions (56a,56b. 56c; 56d), each having axially-extending widths traversing substantially the entire distance between flanges (52, 54) of the reel. The outer flange (52) of the reel (22) is detachably connected by connectors (66) to the hub (56) for permitting removal of the flange together with one (56d) of such line-supporting hub portions, while retaining in place substantially the entire width of the other line-supporting portion (56a, 56b, 56c) of the hub. The removable line-supporting portion (56d) of the hub is located adjacent line attachment fittings (40) within the hub so as to facilitate access thereto, and comprises only a minor portion of the line-supporting surface area of the hub so that the wound coils of the line (20) remain supported despite such removal.

    摘要: A clamp or connector 10 for an elongate member such as a pipe has a body 12 providing an internal bore having axially spaced inclined surfaces 16, 17, 18 respectively engageable by sets of angularly spaced balls 29 supported in apertures in a cylindrical cage 26 biassed axially by spring 28. In use the balls 29 engage a pipe 41 and annular seals 25, 34 engage the pipe. The apertures can be axially elongated to accommodate a degree of ovality in the pipe. One or more apertures have diverging walls to accommodate pipe ovality. Each ball may have a separate inclined surface; the spring can be omitted. There could be only one set of balls. The seal 25 could engage a taper on body 12 so as to move radially inwards when pushed axially. The clamp can be inside the pipe. Arrangements are described which include one or more seals for engaging the pipe.

    摘要: A telescoping boom assembly having novel and inexpensive apparatus for extending and retracting the boom assembly and for extending and retracting an articulated pipeline mounted on the boom assembly. A total of three winches can be used to move a multiple section boom assembly between a retracted position and an extended position regardless of the number of movable boom sections, and the same three winches can independently move the articulated pipeline between a folded and an extended position.
