摘要： A vibratory finishing machine having a fixed frame and a floating support resiliently mounted thereon, a finishing chamber mounted on the floating support, a gyratory motion-producing assembly affixed to the support eccentrically mounted on a shaft and a motor operatively coupled thereto. The finishing chamber is divided into two parts, one part rotatively mounted and having at least an inner vertical wall, and a stationary portion affixed to the floating support. A second motor is mounted in fixed relationship with the floating support and operatively coupled to rotate the rotatably-mounted portion of the chamber. The rotational or centrifugal rotation of the rotatably-mounted portion of the chamber provides greatly improved finishing efficiency of the apparatus. Additionally, the gyrational motion of the chamber produced by the first motor and accompanying eccentric weights may be used to provide automatic discharge of the parts, and may also be used for finishing parts operated either by itself or in combination with the centrifugal rotation produced by rotating the rotatable portion of the chamber.

摘要： A machine for finishing parts, having part-isolating means such as vertical partitions or dividers, defining one or more compartments, disposed at least partially within the finishing chamber, each compartment designed to accept a part or parts to be finished and to maintain the parts isolated from each other. The finishing chamber and the part-isolating means are reciprocally movable with respect to each other first for a limited distance in a forward direction, and then for a limited distance in a rearward direction generally of the same magnitude. During movement in the forward direction the partitions are disposed intermediate the parts. At the end of the limited forward distance the partitions are removed from their positions intermediate the parts and remain in said removed positions during the rearward movement. At the end of the rearward movement for said limited distance the partitions are returned to their positions intermediate the parts and are ready to begin a succeeding cycle.

摘要： A gyratory finishing machine, of the type in which the finishing units gyrate about a common center and advantageously rotate about their own axis, is provided with loading and unloading means for loading and unloading selected finishing chambers without stopping the gyration of the other finishing chambers. This is generally accomplished through a null-point producing means for establishing a null-point relation between the selected finishing chamber and the loading and unloading means. The null-point can be established by bringing the selected finishing chamber to said common center, or by causing said loading and unloading means to gyrate in unison with the gyration of the selected finishing chamber. The loading and unloading can be effected while the selected finishing chamber is at the common center or by transferring the selected finishing chamber from the null-point to a remote loading station.

摘要： A machine for finishing parts, having part-isolating means such as vertical partitions or dividers, defining one or more compartments, disposed at least partially within the finishing chamber, each compartment designed to accept a part or parts to be finished and to maintain parts isolated from other parts. The finishing chamber and the part-isolating means are movable with respect to each other. As a result, as the part moves along the finishing chamber during the course of the finishing process, the compartment defined by the part-isolating means, e.g., partitions, moves longitudinally with the part and isolates it from other parts. In one embodiment of the invention, the part-isolating means, such as partitions for defining compartments for the parts, moves vertically with respect to the finishing chamber. Vertical movement is controlled by devices such as solenoids or air-operated cylinders in turn controlled by timers, permitting precise control of the finishing period. The vertical movement is so controlled that at the proper times the parts are released to advance to the space beyond the partition. Thus, in effect, the compartment surrounding the part and isolating it from other parts, moves with the part. In another embodiment the partitions are arranged to move longitudinally with the parts, and means are provided for retarding, stopping, or driving the parts longitudinally. In still another embodiment, means is provided for separating finishing material from the parts and discharging finished parts. The finishing machines may be curvilinear or annular gyratory motion-type machines, linear tub-type machines, or any of various types of tumbling machines. Method of finishing whereby any and all of the foregoing objectives are accomplished. The present application claims such improved finishing apparatus wherein the part-isolating means is supported in the upper-edge region of the finishing chamber or container.
