摘要:
The method of aligning and loading a substrate onto a powder reinforcement machine wherein a guide pin arrangement is adjusted with respect to settings on a portion of the machine frame and then adjusted distancewise from the machine frame, the guide pins themselves then adjusted with respect to the guide pin support, to facilitate alignment of substrates on the machine, the settings being repeatable for differently contoured substrates if desirable. The guide pin support being shiftable for removal from the path of a substrate transport cube, permitting rapid alignment of successive substrates of a particular configuration.

A sewing machine system possesses an interactive communication capability allowing for the assignment of stitch patterns with respect to workpieces to be sewn. The workpieces are arranged within pallets having binary codes impressed thereon. The stitch pattern assignments are made in conjunction with the sensing of the binary codes. The workpieces are automatically processed from a location wherein the binary codes are sensed, to a location wherein the pallets are attached to an automatic positioning system. The workpieces are furthermore processed through to an output position when the respectively assigned stitch pattern has been sewn.

A system for processing workpieces prearranged within pallets that are to be sewn by a sewing machine. The system includes apparatus for automatically processing a pallet from an input location to a location wherein the pallet can be automatically attached to a positioning system. The positioning system moves the attached pallet into position underneath the sewing machine head for subsequent sewing of a stitch pattern. The sewn workpiece is returned to a location where the pallet can be detached from the positioning system. An ejector mechanism automatically moves the detached pallet to a location which does not interfere with the automatic processing of another pallet loaded at the input location.

An X-Y positioning apparatus having a dual drive arrangement for the X-direction of motion. The dual drive arrangement includes a pair of pinion gears engaging gear racks extending rearwardly from a frame member. A carriage is mounted for movement along the frame member in a Y-direction. The pinion gears are joined together by a rigid coupling which can be disengaged so as to allow for the adjustment and alignment of the X and Y directions of motion.

A method of selecting the resolution of a charged-particle energy or momentum analyzer wherein an analyzing field disperses the particles in an analyzing plane. An electrostatic field generator is adjusted to cause the dispersed particles leaving the field to pass through either of two apertures formed in a resolving aperture member and disposed at different distances from the plane. Each aperture has a different width, selected to result in a different resolution of the analyzing field. A single means for receiving charged particles (typically an ion or electron detector) is disposed to receive particles which have passed through either aperture. A magnetic sector mass spectrometer incorporating the method is also disclosed.

An adjustable guide arrangement for aligning a substrate such as a shoe upper to be treated with a reinforcing substance, onto a biased plate of a rotatable cube for subsequent pressing against a carrier belt of a reinforcing machine. The guide arrangement comprises a housing adjustably supported on a frame portion of the machine, the housing holding a piston and cylinder unit having a piston rod therefrom which secures a guide bracket. The bracket has several slots therein which each adjustably support a guide pin. The guide pins are registerable with the biased plate, and act as an adjustable backstop for the substrate as they are being loaded onto the rotatable cube. The piston rod is retractable into the cylinder, to pull the guide pins out of the way of the cube as it is caused to rotate.

A method is provided for the continuous manufacture of self-locking internally threaded fasteners having a locking body or patch comprised of resilient thermoplastic material, applied to the fastener in powder form. A support member having a plurality of cavities for receiving said fasteners, and a nozzle associated with each of said cavities, is moved along a path through a plurality of locations wherein the fastener is deposited at a cavity aligned with a respective nozzle at a first location, material is forced through the nozzle onto the fastener at a second location, the fasteners are removed from the respective support at a third location, and the nozzles are purged of material at a fourth location prior to the initiation of a subsequent sequence of operations by the apparatus.

A multi-station machine for marginal roughing and toe scouring of shoe bottoms has a turret arrangement, carrying a plurality of shoe supports. At a marginal roughing station two rotary roughing tools operate along opposite marginal portions, during movement of the tools lengthwise of the shoe bottom respectively in a first and a return direction, the shoe support being movable heightwise and widthwise of the shoe bottom so that each tool follows the shoe bottom margin contour. The tools can also pivot about a horizontal axis to maintain their plane normal to the shoe bottom portion being operated upon. In-machine brush grinding is provided, using rotating stones, the speed of rotation being about twice that of the roughing brushes, and the direction of rotation such that the peripheries of stone and brush, at the point of contact, move in the same direction. At a toe scouring station a single abrasive roll is movable lengthwise and heightwise of the shoe bottom under the control of a cam the angular disposition of which is set according to the shoe bottom contour. For controlling the movements of both the tools and shoe support at the marginal roughing station, servomotors are provided under the control of computer control means which supplies control signals thereto in accordance with a programmed instruction.
