Application led May 23, 1913, Serial No. 769,778..Renewed ctober 18,1919. Serial No. 331,746.

To all whome'tmay concern:

Be it known that I, HERBERT E. BROWN,

a citizen of the United States, residing at f Sterling, in the county of TWhiteside andL State of Illinois, have invented anew and useful Barotype-Machine, of which the following is a specification.V

This invention relates to what are now known in the art of printing as linotypemachines, designed to produce printing surfaces comprisin` a slug, or bar, or linotypethat lis to say, a solid line of type, bearing on its face ory top edge, properly justified, the characters to print an entire line. lt is ofV that class of composing machines in which a series of independently connected matrices, bearing individual, or yduplicated characters, are stored in a magazine andas-V sembled into a line, one at a time and in the order desired, by the instrumentality of escapement mechanism operated by keyboard mechanism provided with finger keys; the composed or assembled line having justifiers Aor expandible space bands inserted between the several words, as the line is composed, and the completed line of matrices and ustifiers transferred and presented, in a locking-up and justifying mechanismbefore the vface of a mold, to close the said mold; a metal pot and pump being provided, molten metal is forced into the mold and against the assembled line of characters on said inatiices thus forming the said slug or bar; the slug or bar is trimmed, ejected and delivered automatically onto' a galley, the matrices are elevated and separated Afrom the justiliers and presented. to a distributing mechanism which returns them to their proper and stored positions in the matrix magazine and also returns the justifiers to their stored positionsrin readiness to'be again used as above described. e n. v

The objects of my. invention are; first, to provide a new and novel vmatrix storage magazine; second, to make ja new and novel matrix distribution mechanism whereby the said matrices can be distributed or dropped into a magazine having itsnstorage chutes spar-ed close together, Y

much narrower magazine third, Vto provide a new and simplified matrix releasinginechanism; fourth, to make an improved. and simple keyboard; fifth, to provide a simpleV locking device for the keyboard; sixth/Ito provide a novel space band releasing mechathus admitting of a reffective assembling mechanism comprising an oscillating finger that also is employed to transfer the 'assembled line;` eighth, to provide an assembling boa or mechanism whereby the composed line cannot be transferred if it is over-set; ninth, to provide against the possibility of transferring thev assembled line runtil the first elevator jaws are in position to receive the same, also to retard the transferring devices until the line has been carried down and out of the way of the same; tenth,to cast a partly set line without the necessity of qnadding or spacing out the said partly composed line ;4 eleventh, to make a new and novel clamping device for the assembled line; twelfth, to make anew and very simple device whereby the duplicated or italic second characters which are frequently carried on what is called two-letter matrices may be brongnt to the casting position; thirteenth, tomake a simple and effective device for separating the matrices 'from Vthe space bands and presenting the space von the accompanying nineteen sheets of drawings in which Figure l, is a front elevation of a machine embodying my invention; Fig. 2, is a left side elevation of the same;l Fig. 3, is a right side elevation of the same; Fig, 4, isl a plan view of thesame; Fig. 5, is an enlarged front`.elevation of the lower stepped end of the matrix storage magazine; Fig.. 6, is a front elevation of-thematrix assembling belt and its adjacent parts disconnected from the machine; Fig. 7, `is a detail sectional view partly broken away taken Online 7-7 of.

'Fig 6; Fig. t3, is a vdetailview showingtheVv manner of fasteningv the front .glass on the matrix storage magazine; Fig. 9,.is a, vertical sectional view through the lower end of the matrix magazine showing one of the escapement devices; F l0, is a rear elevation ofthe lower end of thematrix magazine showing lthe escapement groups Fig. l1 is a plan viewvof the same; Fig; ll2,y is a frag-
