This is a clear representation of the style of our bevel core gear patterns. It was engraved from a photograph taken direct from the casting to show correctly the proportion, shape, &c. With this style of gear, as well as those for spur gearing, we are sufficiently supplied to meet most any reasonable demand. All our patterns were made for the purposes of flouring mills, with a view to avoid superfluous metal, at the same time, to make them strong and in good proportion. Our spur bolting gear patterns have been prepared with special care; the patterns being iron with the teeth cut from blank rims by a gear cutter, they remain true and from these always make true castings. The arms are curved and oval in shape, and the whole of a design exactly meeting the tastes of the most skillful mill-wrights. Any odd wheels that may be needed to complete the outfit of a job, we have arranged to get on short notice. There being some half a dozen foundries within a few blocks of our works, it will be seen we do not lack the means near at hand. Having a gear cutting machine in our establishment, we are prepared to face and dress the cogs of spur pinions, trundle-heads, and spur gear of 40 inches diameter and less of narrow face, and those of 24 inches diameter and less of most any face or pitch. |
