ABSTRACT:
A continuous drawing machine for drawing elongated material through a die has two drawing carriages each with one pair of jaws to grip the wire. The jaws are wedge-shaped and mounted on their rear side in oblique supports. Once in operation they are self-gripping. A linkage system, comprising an arm extending from each carriage and two cam curves on the machine-frame, controls the initial grip of the jaws on the wire. The two cam curves are formed by an oscillating tongue articulated on the machine frame next to the starting position of the carriage. The arm has a follower-roll that follows the first cam curve and thus clamps the wire. During the return of the carriage the tongue with the two cam curves thereon is pushed away by the follower-roll rolling or sliding with its face along the second cam curve. The tongue snaps back by means of a spring as soon as the follower-roll has passed and again offers the first cam curve to the follower-roll after the reversal of the carriage's moving direction. The linkage system is buffered by a torsion spring to avoid breakage. The jaws are forcibly opened by a third cam curve in case the automatic opening effect of the jaws is somehow jammed at the end of the working stroke.
