My next inline treadle hammer design
jhicks2013 replied to Jason M's topic in Power Hammers, Treadle Hammers, Olivers
Not sure if any body is still interested in this discussion but I ran across this Whitworth quick return mechanism that I thought would be an excellent way to power this style of hammer. I have studied both hammer types shown in this thread and believe this could work on both types of hammers to power them the very first mechanism in the video is the variation I would use. I do not have the program to draw this. If you mount the mechanism with the small red arm down and mount the yellow arm in line with the back on a brace mounted between the anvil and the back post and connect the green slide to the bottom arm with the style that has the round sprocket you should be able to use the very bottom red linkage shaft to connect it with a key way and a pulley on the back side to connect a motor to the bottom section and it will look similar to the linkage on a train wheel while in motion it should in theory travel up and down pushing the mechanism up and down continually. Then on the other style where the pedal linkage arm goes you could mount this set up the same way and the green part would connect it with a small pivot arm to go from the green part to the small grey arm to simulate pulling it up and down with the foot pedal. If the blue arm was a turnbuckle you could adjust it to where it has the right travel to get the proper up and down motion. I can hand draw what I am talking about but not sure how well it would show up. I believe you could have the motor on a pivot like the tire hammer to add tension to the hammer when you want to use the motor and it would run until you pressed down to tension the belt.- 30 replies

I think when I go to paint I will use high gloss black with red detail lines -
