Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
129 words
A machine of the class described for treatment of a material wound onto a perforated beam which comprises: a treatment chamber for receiving said beam; a self-supporting frame on which said treatment chamber is mounted; bearing means provided on said frame to extend into said treatment chamber at opposite ends thereof for rotatable support of said beam; a movable holder having a horizontal support arm fixed thereon, said support arm being adapted to carry said beam to insert said beam into said treatment chamber in such manner so that said beam is engaged with and supported by one of said bearing means; and a motor drive rigidly supported on said frame and engagable with said beam via one of said bearing means to impart rotational movement to said beam.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
129 words
A machine of the class described for treatment of a material wound onto a perforated beam which comprises: a treatment chamber for receiving said beam; a self-supporting frame on which said treatment chamber is mounted; bearing means provided on said frame to extend into said treatment chamber at opposite ends thereof for rotatable support of said beam; a movable holder having a horizontal support arm fixed thereon, said support arm being adapted to carry said beam to insert said beam into said treatment chamber in such manner so that said beam is engaged with and supported by one of said bearing means; and a motor drive rigidly supported on said frame and engagable with said beam via one of said bearing means to impart rotational movement to said beam.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
21 words
Machine according to claim 1, wherein said chamber is removably mounted on said frame and is secured thereto by securing means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
45 words
Machine according to claim 1 wherein one section of said frame which carries one of said bearing means and at least one section of the associated chamber wall is pivoted whereby said sections may be opened to permit insertion of said beam into said chamber.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
Machine according to claim 3 wherein said frame includes an auxiliary support means adapted to support said beam when said frame and wall sections are pivoted open.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
44 words
Machine according to claim 1 wherein said movable holder comprises a carriage having a chassis extending under said beam; a perpendicularly extending base and a horizontally disposed support arm mounted to said base, said support arm being adapted to extend partially within said beam.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
22 words
Machine according to claim 5 wherein said support arm is mounted to said base at the same level as said bearing means.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
33 words
Machine according to claim 5 wherein said frame is dimensioned under said chamber to rEceive said chassis whereby said chassis can be shifted to adjust said beam during its insertion into said chamber.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
20 words
Machine according to claim 1, characterized in that the holder is a crane hook provided with at least one bearing.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
88 words
Machine according to claim 8, in that the crank hook (13) presents a horizontally extending support arm (9) engageable with the bearing from one side which is fixed on the vertical section of a bent support (14) which, when viewed from top, is in the same line as the beam (5) at a certain distance above the same and is suspended approximately above the center of the beam at such a distance from the bearing of the beam that the point of suspension is free from torsional moments.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
61 words
Machine according to claim 9, in that sensing means (18) are provided on said crane hook for determining the position of said beam (5), a shiftable weight (16) is arranged on said hook and motor means is coupled with said sensing means for proportionally displacing said weight upon asymmetrical loading of said crane hook to maintain same in a desired position.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
27 words
Machine according to claim 1, in that the chamber (2) presents a closable opening on the top for inserting the beam (5) by means of a crane.
