ABSTRACT:
A takeout arm assembly (10) for an I.S. glass container forming machine, the arm assembly having a housing (14) that is oscillatable about a fixed shaft (12). The housing has a split first pulley (16a/16b) that is coaxial with the fixed shaft and oscillatable with the housing, and a second pulley (18) that is positioned within and is rotatable with respect to the housing, the second pulley being spaced from the first pulley with the axes of the first and second pulleys being parallel to one another. A double-ended first cable is trained in untoothed peripheral grooves around the first half (16a) of the first pulley and the second pulley with its opposed ends respectively secured at spaced locations to a first half of the first pulley and the second pulley (18), and a double-ended second cable is trained in untoothed peripheral grooves around the second half (16b) of the first pulley with its opposed ends respectively secured at spaced locations to the second half of the first pulley and the second pulley (18). The halves of the first pulley are circumferentially variable with respect to one another to permit independent adjustment of tension levels in the first and second cables.
