OHIO >eaJon J The Wenzel 'Bull Dog' By FRED WENZEL Wenzel Manufacturing Co., Chicago THE Bull Dog (patent applied for) is in' tended primarily to eliminate key breakage on all types of shafts for winding film. It was also designed for use in lower magazines, to distribute more evenly the pull strain exerted by the heavy 2000-foot reels, which, at present, are driven by a relatively small shaft key. The accompanying description and drawing convey the detail of this device: AR-15-A is the main casting. The edges of this casting are chamfered to avoid cutting or scratching the projectionist's hands. AR-15-B is the reel shaft key used only in conjunction with small reels, such as the 1000-foot exchange reel, which do not fit the studs [C]. The key seats into the slotted shaft and the reel studs are removed. Fig. 1 shows how the entire length of the key is seated into the slotted shaft to increase the driving power of the key and lessen key breakage. AR-15-C is the reel stud (two supplied). These studs are screwed into [A] at three different pairs of threaded holes: the distances of each pair being (1) 1 7/16; (2) 1 11/16; (3) 1 15/16 from the center of the shaft. The choice of the holes depends on the reel being used. When the studs are used the key [B] is flipped back out of the slot [H], as seen in Fig. 2. AR-15-D is the special shaft used with the Bull Dog. It is special because of the slot [H] and can be supplied for practically all types of heavy-duty hand rewinders, automatic rewinders and magazines. AR-15-E is the set screw which holds the Bull Dog firmly to the shaft. The key helps the set screw, because it always rests in the slot [H], no matter what the position. AR-15-F is the key holding the screw allowing the key to swing freely. When AFM5-B ^hroiidcLu Ljreetinac from District No. 15 I. A. T. S. E.
