Patented May 2, 2950 pfdvidd with'a'n hmxiamm direc passes through a correspondingly shaped hole in the cylinder end wall 6| whereby the coil engaging jaws 66 are prevented from rotating. A spring 63 biases the piston inwardly so as to open the jaws when the piston operating pressure is released. The jaw 66 is provided with suitable bifurcated coil engaging extensions which are arranged in staggered relationship relative to the corresponding extensions provided on the relatively stationary coil engaging jaw 44, with the result that the jaw 66 can be moved toward the relatively stationary jaw 44 so as to engage even the smallest type of coil.
The upper end of the cylinder 60 is provided with a head 68 which is fastened to the slotted projection 10 (formed as an integral part of the bracket 40) by means of the bolt 72 and thumb nut 73. The bolt 12 is slidable within the slot 14 of the projection 10. By virtue of this arrangement, it is possible to shift the cylinder 60 sidewise in the direction of the spread of the V- shaped jaws 44 and 66 and thereby vary the distance between the axis of the cylinder 60 and the main portion of the bracket 40 so as to adjust the coil holder for coils of different shapes. Figure 2 shows the coil holder adjusted for a coil of one shape, whereas Figure 3 shows the holder adjusted for a coil of another shape.
Fluid under pressure, such as air, is supplied tothe upper end of the cylinder 60 through the fluid line 16. By controlling the pressure of the fluid supplied to the upper end of the cylinder 60, it is possible to adjust the pressure with which the jaw 66 engages the coil. Thus the coil holder will work with coils of various sizes without the need for any adjustment in the clamping mechanism. The only time when adjustment is necessary is when it is necessary to adjust for changes in the geometric cross sectional shape of the coil. If the device is to be used for coils having different geometric cross sectional shapes, it is possible to adjust for the differences in the geometric shapes merely by loosening the nut 15 which holds the cylinder 60 in adjustment relative to the bracket 40.
Although the preferred embodiment of the device has been described, it will be understood that within the purview of this invention various changes may be made in the form, details, proportion and arrangement of parts, the combination thereof and mode of operation, which generally stated consist in a device capable of carrying out the objects set forth, as disclosed and defined in the appended claims.
