ABSTRACT:
A drive train includes a rotating shaft driven element of a materials handling device with two drive motors separately coupled to the drive shaft to provide a slow and fast traverse speed and thereby increase the throughput of the machine. A brake mounted on the rotating drive shaft allows exact positioning of the element. The drive shaft drives a gearbox with an automatic oiler to provide a measured application of oil to a bearing not lubricated by the oil bath of the gearbox reservoir. The automatic oiler includes a single action cylinder which sumps oil from the reservoir of the gearbox and which is connected in a slave relationship to any other repetitive function in the materials handling device. A counterweight attached to the piston rod automatically resets the cylinder after each operation. A method within the operation is recited for moving a rotated shaft driven element from a first position to a home position with the drive train apparatus disclosed.
