PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN F. CARD, OF THREE RIVERS, MICHIGAN, ASSIGNOR TO SHEFFIELD CAR COMPANY, OF THREE RIVERS, MICHIGAN.
BRUSH-HOLDER FOR DYNAMO-ELECTRIC MACHINES OR MOTORS- SPEGIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 784,547, dated March 14, 1905.
Application filed October 1, 1903. Serial No. 175,257
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, J OHN F. CARD, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of Three Rivers, in the county of St. Joseph and 5 State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Brush-Holders for Dynamo-Electric Machines or Motors, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in IQ brush-holders for dynamo-electric machines or motors.
The objects of this invention are, first,to provide an improved brush-holder for dynamoelectric machines or motors by which the 5 brush is held in a manner to secure the most desirable results which is simple and compact in structure and easy to operate; second, to provide an improved brush holder for dynamo-electric machines or motors which may 2 be quickly and easily reversed; third, to provide an improved brush-holder for dynamoelectric machines or motors which is economical to produce and use and not likely to get out of repair; fourth, to provide an improved 2 5 brush-holder for dynamo-electric machines or motors which may be quickly and easily adjusted to compensate for the wear of the brush or to secure the desired tension thereon.
Further objects and objects relating to structural details will definitely appear from the detailed description to follow.
I accomplish the objects of my invention by the devices and means described in the following specification.
The invention is clearly defined, and pointed out in the claims.
A structure embodying the features of my invention is clearly illustrated in the accompan ying drawings, forming a part of this 4 specification, in which- Figure 1 is a detail side elevation view of a structure embodying the features of my invention, my improved brush holder being shown in its operative relation. Fig. 2 is a detail sectional View taken on line 2 2 of Fig. 1 looking in the direction of the little arrows at the ends of the section-lines. Fig. 3 is an enlarged plan view of the brush E. Fig. I
is an enlarged plan view of the link a, showing the structural details thereof. 5
In the drawings similar letters of reference refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
Referring to the lettered parts of the drawings, A represents the brush-rocker to which the brush-supporting bracket B is secured. The bracket B may, however, be secured to any suitable support, according to the particular style of machine on which it is desired to use the structure. The bracket B is suitably insulated, as appears in Fig. 2. Adjustably secured to the bracket B by the set-screw c, which engages a slot 0 therein, is a bracket C, having a laterally-projecting arm C thereon.
A block D is detachably secured to the arm 6 5 C. The block I) is provided with projecting lugs or cars D, to which the links 0 1/ are pivotally secured. A brush-holding plate E is pivotally secured to the outer ends of these links a e. The brush E, which is preferably 7 a carbon brush of the usual style, is clamped to the brush-plate E by a pair of set-screws f, which are arranged through suitable perforations f in the brush. A series of two or more perforations are preferably provided, (see Fig. 3,) so that the brush may be adjusted to compensate for wear.
Tension is applied to the brush by means of the spring d, which rests in the seat or socket (5 in the upper link The tension of the spring is adjusted by means of the thumb-nut (Z on the pin (Z. The pin (1 is arranged through the slot 0 in the link (5 and is carried by the arm (Z, which projects from the block I). The brush is thus yield- 5 ingly held against the commutator F.
The supporting-links c c are preferably made of brass casting of suflicient size to suitably supply the brush and also to carry any current which may be passed therethrough. The brush may, however, be provided with any suitable electrical connection desired.
When desired, the brush-holder may be reversed, as is indicated in dotted lines in Fig. 1, by removing the set-screw c. This, it is evident, can be quickly done, and the relation of the brush to the commutator remains the same. The tension upon the brush can be very nicely adjusted, so that the brush is subject to the least possible Wear and vibration or chattering thereof prevented.
When desired, the bracketC may be quickly removed or secured to any position or adjusted to meet the existing conditions.
1 have illustrated and described my improved brush-holder for dynamo-electric machines or motors in the form preferred by me on account of the simplicity in structure and durability in use. ,I am, however, aware that the same may be varied considerably in structural details Without departing from my invention.
