IMPROVEMENT lN COUNTER-SHAFT PULLEYS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 196,772, dated November 6, 1877; application filed August 31, 1877.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, GEORG SOGER, of Pittsburg, in the county'of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement; in Ooimter-Shaft Pulleys; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.

My invention relates to an improvement in counter-shaft pulleys; and consists in an arrangement of gear in connection with one of the pulleys of the counter-shaft, whereby a reverse motion is obtained -that is to say, two motions by pulleys arranged on the same counter-shaft, as will be hereinafter more fully explained.

To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe its construction and operation.

In the accompanying drawings, which form part of my specification, Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improvement. Fig. 2 is a vertical and longitudinal section of the same. Fig. 3 is an end view section at line 3) of Fig. 2.

1n the drawings, A B represent the bear ings, supports, or hangers for the countershaft 0, upon which is permanently attached a pulley, D, and a gear-wheel, Z. 6 represents a loose pulley, and f aloose pulley furnished with cogs g on its inner face and at its outer edge. The bearing, support, or hanger B is furnished with a bearing for an adjustable shaft, 1 on the inner edge of which is a cog- 1 wheel, h, which meshes into the cogs. g of the pulley f, and also meshes into the wheel Z, permanently secured to the counter-shaft O. The wheel h is held in and out of gear by means of a pin, j, which passes through open ings in the shaft The operation of my improvement is as follows: When a reversed motion is desiredthat is to say, when it is desired to have the pulley D travel in one direction and the pulleyf in an opposite direction, as indicated by the arrows in Fig. lthe wheel is is placed in position so'as to mesh with the wheel I and cogs g of' the pulley f, as shown in the accompanying-drawings, and secured in said position through the medium of the key or pin j. When such is the case the belt, on either the pulley d or], may be shifted onto the loose pulley e. The cogs g of the pulley may be arrangeddn a series of detachable sections, so that in 'case of the breaking of one or more teeth, a section may be removed and a new section supplied.

Having thus described my improvement, what I claim is The pulley f, furnished with cogs g, in combination with the wheels I and h and pulleys c and D, substantially as herein described, and for the purpose set forth.
