Abstract
Apparatus for distributing lining material in cap shells where the apparatus has a lining material extrusion means including an extrusion passage positioned above a path of cap shells moving through the apparatus and a rotatable knife positioned above the exit end of the extrusion passage for cutting lining material as it is extruded from the passage. A drive means is provided for rotating the knife and is connected to the knife by means of a transmission means. The transmission means includes at least two sets of non-circular gear pairs with the relative angle between the sets being adjustable whereby the rotational speed of the knife may be varied.
Claims4
An apparatus for distributing lining material in cap shells where the apparatus has a cap shell transport means for moving cap shells at a predetermined speed along a path, a lining material extrusion means positioned above and along said path for extruding a predetermined amount of lining material through an extrusion passage, a rotatable lining material cutting knife positioned adjacent the exit end of said extrusion passage adapted to move across lining material extruded from said passage to cut the same, drive means for rotating said knife, and a transmission means operatively connecting said drive means to said knife;
- the improvement comprising in that said transmission means contains at least two sets of non-circular gear pairs and wherein the relative angle between the said two sets of gear pairs is adjustable.
